It's always some random Indian guy, "CEO and founder" of at least three "companies" that when you dig into them are basically hobbies, posting inane utterings like "I woke at 4am today and called my employee. He was still in bed so I fired him!"

They've probably never even had an employee.

I dunno what the fuck is going on in India. It's like they're running a cargo cult version of capitalism, hoping that typing mean nonsense like that will somehow make them rich further down the line.

As a Brit, it was probably our fault in the not too distant past.

Eh, maybe it was our fault a while back but these places have been independent long enough for their problems to be their own fault now. They only blame us as a distraction, pretty much like the pre-Brexit British govt used to blame the EU.

yeah like, india has a fucking space program that actually does things, when you have a functional space program you don't really get to claim to be the little guy anymore.
