not all sikhs wear a turban....... just so you know



What a novel revelation. Tell me then, what percentage of the Sikh population are white women? 40%?


Not sure, but 100% of the white women in my house are married to one.


Who cares? Why are you responding with irrelevant trivia about yourself? I am sure you absolutely know that not 40% of your community is made up of white women and that obviously is the people unloading aren't all Sikhs.

By the way, these responses are exactly what OP was talking about.


Because you are making veiled assertions about a community cynically making charity about themselves, based on your quick visual analysis of a short reddit video. You're doing exactly what you're accusing everyone else of doing, with an added dose of poor faith.


My post did not include any assertion about any such thing. What this has to do with (your?) wife is a mystery though.

Of course your reaction is quite telling and really says something about your ethnic narcissism, nobody said anything negative about Indians like you and somehow you feel like you are being attacked. Needing to talk about the race of (your?) wife also seems extremely weird.

To be sure you have clarified OPs question quite a bit.


Thanks, I'm glad to help with OP's question. A more enlightened reader might have understood that I mentioned my wife to subtly suggest that there may be any number of reasons for white people to be working with Sikhs, but I keep forgetting that that sort of subtlety doesn't go well on HN where some people need more straightforward language. Live and learn.
