Honestly, I don’t get why so many people — especially from the North — feel the need to ask racist, insensitive, or downright fake things about the Northeast in general. It’s like they skip over all the beauty, culture, and history and go straight into stereotypes. No matter how educated or “well-traveled” they claim to be, the behavior doesn’t change much.

What’s worse is the subtle superiority complex — especially from people who think being vegetarian or speaking Hindi somehow makes them more “pure” or “mainstream.” It’s tiring.

On the other hand, I’ve had really positive experiences interacting with people from the South. More often than not, they’re respectful, curious in a good way, and not judgemental.

I’m not saying everyone is like this, but it just feels so lopsided sometimes. Had to get it off my chest.

Note: I know some of the people would be thinking every state faces issues not only northeast. Man, people from different side teams up just to make gossips and ask weird question… This questions doesn’t even sound genuine but straight up racist for their amusement and timepass.
