Immigrants from South Asia

The overwhelming majority of South Asians — like Sundar Pichai (CEO of Google) and Satya Nadella (CEO of Microsoft) — who came to the United States are members of already wealthy families in their native lands overseas. [1] Consider Indians. Before coming to our country, they often already received a college education in India, where many people are still impoverished and illiterate. These elites come to the United States because they want to obtain lucrative jobs in order to become even wealthier.

Such Indians believe that Indian culture is better than Western culture. (Since they enjoy lives of privilege in India, why would they think otherwise?) They refuse to assimilate into Western society, retain their Indian names, and give Indian names to their children. Such anti-Western immigrants favor celebrating Diwali festival instead of Christmas. They inculcate their children with the anti-Western notion that Indian culture is superior to Western culture.

What is the mentality of immigrants who do assimilate into Western society? Consider the father of Daniel Inouye. Before Daniel Inouye departed for the training camp of the U.S. Army, his father told him, "America has been good to us. It has given me two jobs. It has given you and your sisters and brothers education. We all love this country. Whatever you do, do not dishonor your country. Remember –- never dishonor your family. And if you must give your life, do so with honor." [2]

Who is Daniel Inouye? He is a former senator from Hawaii. His attitude and the attitude of his father toward American society were common among many immigrants who came from Japan and Europe in the first 65 years of the 20th century. [12]

Such a pro-Western attitude does not exist among the millions of more recent immigrants and opportunists (who came to the United States by directly enrolling in an American university) from South Asia. Consider Sikhs from India. With assistance from the Sikh Coalition, they used lawsuits to demand that the Department of Defense (DOD) allow them to maintain a beard and to wear a turban. [3] [4] [5] [6] Consequently, the DOD granted the Sikhs permission to maintain this aspect of their native culture at the expense of Western culture. [8] [9] [10] [11] Additional Sikhs with assistance from (again) the Sikh Coalition are now demanding that the United States Military Academy stop requiring them to wear the traditional, ceremonial hat during military parades. [7]

South Asians view ordinary Americans of European (or East Asian) ancestry with arrogance and scorn. When South Asians run companies in Silicon Valley, they clamor for H-1B visas even when there are thousands of unemployed, ordinary Americans who are ready to work.

The presence of South Asians damages Western society.

12. In an op-ed published by KQED Radio, Misa Sugiura stated that her parents embraced assimilation into Western society. "When my parents came to America in the late 60s, they came prepared to embrace a brand new life. Instead of a trunk full of old Japanese holiday traditions, they came with an empty calendar to fill with new American ones." This attitude differs starkly from the attitude of the typical South Asian.
13. According to a report published by The Hill, a bill in the House of Representatives and a bill in the Senate "would remove the country quotas to assign permanent residency permits or green cards, a longstanding demand of the Indian-American community, but the Durbin-Leahy version would also increase the number of green cards granted per year." The Indians in the United States come from the wealthy and privileged classes in India and believe that, due to their wealth, they are entitled to freely travel to and permanently stay in any country that they want. So, they demand that the American government terminate all quotas which limit granting permanent residency to Indians.
14. According to a report by Fox News, "Hari Sevugan, a former spokesman for the Democratic National Committee and for President [Barack] Obama, indicated that he was part of the accountability project [to create a blacklist of all supporters of Donald Trump]." Sevugan was born in India and hrings its culture to the United States. Blacklisting people whom you dislike is an integral part of Indian culture.
