“Eww, Is that a Hindi Book?!”: Why the Indian “Elite” Disses Everything Desi

“Eww, Is that a Hindi Book?!”: Why the Indian “Elite” Disses Everything Desi The pseudo angrez is a special creature. It flaunts a flagrant repugnance toward all things Indian, but holds off buying those coveted headphones in wait for the big billion sale. It speaks English with a sprauncy accent that reeks of privilege, but resorts to maa-kis and behn-kis in moments of rage or even minor annoyance. It loves weird memes and cat GIFs, but cannot comprehend why old people are into WhatsApp forwards. More often than not, the pseudo angrez is this high-handed privileged internet citizen in the streets and a confused cultural mess in the sheets. I should know; I came to know so many of them over the years that I became one. http://bit.ly/2QKKjLp
