Let's talk about the rice bag thing.

Why do a lot of Indian right wingers claim that Christians in India only converted because missionaries offered them a bag of rice? I’ve never heard this term before. Did missionaries actually do that? Because i don't think it applies to us Northeasterners, we aren’t cheap like that.

Are Indians even aware of how the world sees them, that they think they can influence others? The confidence these Indians have is something that should be studied. Deep in their hearts, I think they still hope they can brainwash the Christians of the Northeast and turn them into Hindus someday. That’s why all these ‘rice bag’ slurs keep emerging against us.

Before you claim to be a proud Indian, at least stop saying that you migrated from Southeast Asia into India. That narrative will cause problems for us in the long run, if you know what I mean. We are natives of this land, and we should protect it.
