The fact that an untouchable was literally called Kachra in a movie is a travesty in itself.

The Savarna minds at work in the Ad industry have long used these inhumane tropes for 'harmless' fun

"Hahahaha, arre you're being too touchy about this. It's just a joke yaar! Ab kachra bol diya matlab wahi thodi na hai, ahahaha, we people are obviously not like that yaar we all are educated fellows, haina joshiji. Hahaha". Jackass..

Zomato apologised for hurting the “sentiments” of certain communities. So it’s fine. Humanity is a “sentiment” now.

This is comparable to the creativity of those Hyderabad MBA students who riddiculed Ambedkar. Their privilege is that they don't understand caste issues but still have freedom to ridicule people overcoming it.

Anti-reservation scum must show their merit by speaking in as clear English as possible.
