The Indian Caste system is just crazy :wow:

You could say it was the origin of racism. You could see it today how every Indian thinks of White people as God
I don't think it's the origin of all racism since you can trace Western racism to different specific historical points, it goes to show you can't reduce every racism to white supremacy

I agree it marries very well with white supremacy though

Matter of fact I think everybody interested in racism would do well to learn about the Indian version

True, I come from the perspective that if you trace the Indo-European languages, Indians and White people do share a common ancestor

Not genetically but linguistically. The Indo-Europeans (Aryans) brought their language to the people they conquered but didn't intermixed that much with those folks.
