Why did the British colonial system in India formalize and exploit an indigenous social system that posits a fundamental moral inequality between groups of people?
Would it have been better that the British impose the imperialist European values of universal human dignity and rights on their colonial subjects?
So Brahmin men had or have harems of women of all classes ready to take their seed?
So, not only are you too retarded to know about divide and conquer, but then you also don‘t notice the contradiction of speaking about universal human dignity and rights for *colonial subjects*. Yeah, I‘m sure a lot of dignity and rights are involved when your family is starving to death in slave like labor conditions under colonial rule.
the caste system is also in plato's republic and i believe aristotle describes it going back to egypt
its just class.
nothing particularly "british".

Read. Read a LOT more.
>>2573109why did indo-euroeans create racial caste systems twice (in india and latin america) when mixing with non-indo-europeans?
I clicked on this thread because I thought the OP pic was a logic puzzle. It's not a logic puzzle, so I have zero remaining interest in this thread.

>>2573109When you think about it, a chandal kid must cause the most seethe.
Because using that system made it easier to extract resources. If they actually cared about human rights they would have abolished the caste system like in Tibet, but obviously that was not the priority considering they squeezed the Indians so hard for food that the bengal famine happened.
this is what the british do all the time, they always did that, there is no time where they didn't do that

>high caste daddy low caste mommy = "tolerated">high caste mommy low caste daddy = prohibitedyou see this in american society too, where a white dad and black mom is much less "controversial" historically than a black dad white mom, which is what my maternal grandparents were insulted and assaulted for on multiple occasions.
Turns out women very much are still seen as property, therefore a lower class (or caste or race) man being with a higher class woman is in many societies seen as the ultimate taboo, because it represents a downward redistribution of the female, who is private property of the upper class father or husband or brother…
>At the time of Indian independence, Dalit activists began calling for separate electorates for untouchables in India to allow fair representation. Officially labeled the Minorities Act, it would guarantee representation for Sikhs, Muslims, Christians, and Untouchables in the newly formed Indian government. The Act was supported by British representatives such as Ramsay MacDonald. According to the textbook Religions in the Modern World, B. R. Ambedkar, who was also a supporter of the Act, was considered to be the "untouchable leader" who made great efforts to eliminate caste system privileges that included participation in public festivals, access to temples, and wedding rituals. In 1932, Ambedkar proposed that the untouchables create a separate electorate that ultimately led Gandhi to fast until it was rejected.
>>2579807Women are serfs and not slaves otherwise they would be bought and sold. Slaves are traded, serfs do forced labor. Men profit from extracting rent from women, men don't buy and sell women.
>>2579817Depends on the time and place. Women used to be bought and sold for marriage dowries. Anyway serfs were tied to land. I wasn't saying women are slaves, but that they are seen as property in a lot of societies, which is why there is this asymmetrical with relationships. It's why men are more than happy to have sex with women of other races but when "their" (property) women have sex with men of other races, the West/East/North/South has fallen and billions must die.
