Tired of Indian mocking their own genetics

I’m honestly irritated and disheartened by the way some Indians themselves have started talking about “Indian genes.” Ever since the whole “India is protein deficient” narrative hit the news, suddenly everyone has become an expert explaining why Indians are supposedly weak.

The reality is much simpler. India’s low intake of protein , calcium and iron historically exists largely because many Indians simply couldn’t afford quality groceries or balanced diets. Poverty and access have played a huge role , not because Indians are fanatics about diet the way people like to imply.

Now people are blaming famines for us being weak because of one B.S. study. But the truth is plenty of other societies have dealt with devastating famines and wars too - Ireland, S.Korea, China and many others. Look at how many Olympic medals the Chinese and Koreans win today.

What bothers me is the self-deprecating tone. Some “woke” Indians know they can’t color-shame people anymore, so now the target has shifted to height, weight, and supposedly “bad genes.” It's weirdly eugenic people talk about our genetics.
