Well that doesn't surprise me because it's the same the world over, including my own country. Insecure, manipulative, passive-aggressive pricks trying to scare or shame everyone else into doing what suits them. I'm just imagining how all the white folks in the audience must have been squirming at this Indian/White culture thing, yet knowing that the minute they open their mouth to say "hang on a minute", they'd be labelled as racist. That's what I find baffling.
