Oh..I thought it was some old about to die guys at RSS who still thought a unified India concept…looks like you think on those lines as well. I mean if you think Porkistan is another name for Bharti…

Re: ... Of Bhindian and Amerikkan and general insults thrown left and right

But yeas I must add that personally, I agree with the point Faisal mentions. I used the word Porkistan only in response to PakGanjoo who uses Undia for some reason. And there came Ravage sayin you should not use Porkistan etc etc..

I was the one who used the word BHINDIAN.

It was not intended as an insult. I was simply reconciling two different terms that are used to describe the land of Hindustan: India and Bharat. When Indians are in Europe or America, or when they need to create a good impression about India, they use the term: "India". When they are back in India to promote Hindutva ideology and take pride in being Indian, they use the term "Bharat". So someone decided to combine the two and came up with Bhindia. Now tell me where is the insult in that?

I am not sure if thats a fair way of operating a multi-ethnic, multi-cultural, inter-faith discussion forum (on the internet, ofcourse),
Thanks.

That’s an oxymoronic sentence Faisal, it can never happen. It can Not happen on ground and you are trying to achieve it virtually..huh!!

Although I have never used nationality or religion as an excuse to vent my anger on ridiculous guppies (probably most of the idiots belong to the same religion and nationality as mine) but there are some here who have a habit to really get under your skin.

Its easier to achieve some results in a virtual environment compared to real-life. However, in this case, you'll find most people are generally polite when you meet them in real life, and can be fairly obnoxious when sitting behind their computer screens. The cloak of annonymity can bring out the worse in some of us.

Faisla bhai theek kahan aapne. It is not only anonymity but also not having anything to lose before insulting India, Hindus and everything Indian. My Pakistani grocer does not insult me or my wife. He does not want to lose our business. Pakistani IT guy that does my network maintenance does not insult India , Hindus or Hinduism for pretty much the same reason. Most Guppies that do that because they do not have any close Hindu friends and they have no commercial contacts with Indis. So they have nothing to lose by spreading their anti-India and anti-Hindu venom here on GS.

And of course people like Antiobl probably doesn’t have one single India friend, so if it isn’t anti-Bharati (I don’t really care what he calls Indians) he doesn’t write it.

I was reading the Religion forum, and got into this](http://www.paklinks.com/gs/showthread.php?t=194294)thread, where a gentleman used the word “Bhindian” to make a point, obviously not as a term of endearment, but rather insult for a whole nation of about 1 billion people (give or take a few million).

And then we have a dear guppie who frequently uses the word “Amerikkan”, (like here](http://www.paklinks.com/gs/showpost.php?p=3502922&postcount=46)) to mock Americans, be referring to the history of Ku Klux Klan et al. I am sure he has valid points of view in many discussions, which are all worth debating, but at the same time I am sure there are better ways to start or continue a discussion, because frankly when you resort to name-calling, then its just a exchange of insults that ensues and no serious discussion can take place.

The icing, ofcourse, is when those who feel offended by such name-calling then resort to the term “Porkistan” (like here](http://www.paklinks.com/gs/showpost.php?p=3527387&postcount=60)) and our dear guppies then demand a ban, or at a minimum removal of posts, because their sensitivites are insulted. Point well taken, but why start on a route, where the corresponding tit for tat, is not something you can live with?

Or may be, the expectation is that since this is a “Pakistani” forum, so “Pakistani” members can dish out whatever they want, and it is the role of the mods to remove anything said in response. I am not sure if thats a fair way of operating a multi-ethnic, multi-cultural, inter-faith discussion forum (on the internet, ofcourse), but if thats the wish of members, then they should clarify that, so mods are aware of the sentiments.

Thanks.

It took you HOW many year to figure all this out? I love a quick mind.
