From an Indian perspective, the caste system in India is seen as better than the social structure in the USA.

Here's the thing: The so-called castes in India are largely linked to the professions people engage in. Brahmins handle religious rituals, Kshatriyas are responsible for warfare and administration, Vaishyas take care of agriculture, livestock, and commerce, while Shudras include farmers, higher-level servants, and artisans. Most of the time, these four groups stick to their roles.

At first glance: Doesn’t this prevent social mobility?

The caste system in Hinduism works like this: It specifies what each person should do. Brahmins recite religious texts, which serves to educate Kshatriyas and lower classes about morals. Kshatriyas, though in power, protect everyone and have a duty to assist lower castes. Vaishyas and Shudras handle transportation, agriculture, and services, freeing up time for the upper castes. Dalits deal with untouchable tasks like handling waste; if other castes handled garbage, it would disrupt the moral fabric of Hinduism.

High castes have a responsibility to ensure the well-being of lower castes. If the lower castes suffer and the high castes do nothing, it’s considered evil.

Looking at the USA from an Indian perspective: isn’t it also a kind of caste system?

Jews: Brahmins, responsible for education and cultural guidance. People say Brahmins in India have power, but in the USA, who dares to touch the Jews? The very existence of the Anti-Semitism Awareness Act says it all. There’s no special law for Brahmins in India.

Whites: Kshatriyas, in charge of administration and warfare.

Asians, Mexicans, and African Americans: Vaishyas and Shudras, handling technical and manual labor.

Sure, some Asians, Mexicans, and African Americans have become officials, but everyone knows who really holds the power: whites. India also has Dalit chief ministers; it’s not a big deal.

And illegal immigrants? Clearly, they are the untouchables. They’re allowed into the USA but are denied basic human rights.

Unlike India, the USA’s pseudo-caste system doesn’t have the concept of “upper castes being responsible for lower castes.” It’s a complete free-for-all. Yes, there are beggars on Indian streets because India is genuinely poor, but the beggars on American streets are people completely abandoned by society.

From this perspective, Indians might even feel morally superior. [Smirks]
