HUGE A lady with a bindi confronts JD Vance at an event.
I saw the clip and her question. She came across as overly emotional, immature, and illogical. Sorry, not a fan of this kind of bombast.

Firstly, nobody sold any dreams to those who came here on a student visa, an H-1 B visa, or any other limited-time visa.

Moreover, the policy right now is to stop illegals from coming in and deport those who came in illegally and then committed a crime or two. For example, non-English speaking/reading illegals who were given CDLs to drive tractor-trailers, which led to deaths of innocents.

Yes, every Xtian wants others to convert to the Xtian faith. What matters is how they are trying to convert people of different faiths or dharmas. Vance wouldn't be a Christian if he did not hope that his wife would eventually convert to Christianity.

The obverse is that as an atheist Hindu, I would definitely hope that Vance will be moved to start practicing Sanaatana Dharma.

Center for the Study of Organized Hate
Anti-Indian Racism on X (July–September 2025)
https://www.csohate.org/2025/09/16/anti ... mber-2025/
Key Findings

- 680 high engagement anti-Indian racist posts on X garnered 281.2M views between July 1 and September 7, 2025.
- Narratives framing Indians as “invaders” and “job thieves,” alongside calls to deport Indians, accounted for 474 posts (69.7%) and 111.8M views, making immigration and expulsion themed rhetoric the primary driver of engagement.
- H-1B resentment and job theft frames were prominent within the leading cluster, blending xenophobia with economic insecurity and amplifying calls for visa bans, denials, deportation and denaturalization of Indians.
- 121 posts (17.8%) used anti-Indian slurs and drew 74.3M views.
- 74 posts (10.9%) tied to the August 12 Florida truck crash involving a Sikh driver amassed 94.9M views, illustrating how single events are weaponized to stigmatize entire communities through occupational scapegoating.
- Activity peaked in August 2025 with 381 posts and 189.9M views. The US-India tariff dispute and incident-based outrage coincided with narrative spikes, indicating that policy tensions and breaking news act as predictable accelerants of racist content.
- Around 65% of posts were US-centered, confirming the US as the epicenter of anti-Indian digital racism during the study period.
