What did the Poos mean by this
Paki here. I believe the Taj Mahal was actually built by Turkic Mughals, not pakis. It is strange to me though how so many Indians claim to hate Muslims but treat the Taj Mahal as their crown jewel. Its also strange to me how people only know of Taj Mahal when there is dozens of other architectural sites.
Seems like the only time poos did not redeem
Holy fucking SOVL
Dravidian tiered buildings are an eyesore
There are plenty of other forms and palaces that long predate the Taj. But tourists can't see or don't know anything beyond Delhi and Agra. I personally never recommend visiting Taj mahal because it's an overcrowded tourist trap. It's only worth it if you find it relatively empty
Based factual Paki.
The heights of Indian cultural production was all under muslim rule
Architecture? Muslims
Painting? Muslims
Poetry? Muslims
Fashion? Muslims
Crafts? Muslims
Textiles? Muslims
Cuisine? Muslims
Idk if you replied to the wrong post but i am a fan of stupas
I don't hate muslims. I consider Pakis to be Indian Muslims. We are both equally hated.
>Its also strange to me how people only know of Taj Mahal when there is dozens of other architectural sites.
because non-Indians know literally nothing whatsoever about India (including Paki/Bangla)
Mughal Empire was centered in Delhi.
The official language aka Urdu, is a Persianised dialect of Apabrahmsa (language spoken in Western Uttar Pradesh).
What's amazing is how Pakistanis are making their own languages extinct (Punjabi, Balochi, Sindhi, Pashto) in favour of Urdu.
>It is strange to me though how so many Indians claim to hate Muslims but treat the Taj Mahal as their crown jewel.
same reason why jews claim to own jerusalem.
Pakistan didn't exist until like 1950
India is incredibly underrated when it comes old architecture
(Paki here again)
>Height of Indian history was under Muslim rule
Eh. Mughal/Persianite/Delhi rule was definitely cool but there was some interesting stuff happening in the Mauryan empire. Gupta empire saw massive advancement in mathematics and astronomy. Hinduism has multiple differentiating schools and mechanisms. Theres some beautiful hindu architectural sites as well. Fashion can be attributed to Pakis I believe and then it spread downstream to rest of south Asia. Poetry is unparelled when it comes to Pakis in my opinion. Not sure about crafts. Yeah textile business is still super common in both countries. Most of ''Indian'' cusine is actually just Punjabi cuisine so I think we win in global influence for cuisine that but I haven't tried south indian food so it might be better.
>Pakis are Indian Muslims
Ehhh again. Linguistically Urdu was imposed onto us through the British to have a common lingua-franca. Before that we had been speaking persian for about 1000 years Im pretty sure. India is way too diverse of a place to classify as one unit of people. South Indians and eastern indians take also have to be taken into account for population. In terms of genetics were closer to afghans than we are to the average Indian. Beyond shared language and cuisine with maybe Punjabis I don't know how much we have in common. Picrel pretty sums it up. Its hard to pin down Pakistan because its kind of its own thing. But regardless Indians are definitely are our closest brothers.
I know why. Its because Urdu is seen as a low-mans language while Urdu is seen as the established mans language. Usually if one had to step into any official job they had to reach certain level of Urdu understanding and I think that sentiment still continues to this day. I have noticed a resurgence of Punjabi though, people finding it a tool of regaining their cultural roots.
Most countries haven't existed until recently. We all know Italy didn't exist thousands of years ago yet we still attribute Roman History to them because that's where it was situated. This argument is kind of annoying to be honest but ok.
Agreed. I feel like once India cleans up its country and capitalized on the braindead zoomer girls who want to be spiritualists they can have global soft-power cultural influence through tourism and their religions.
>Turkic Mughals
My ancestors :)
I prefer the native Hindu temples, more soul
Mughal architecture is beautiful but kinda bland in my opinion coming from a paki as well. My favorite places in India where I find the architecture out of this world is Rajasthan and Gujarat.
>India is way too diverse of a place to classify as one unit of people.
India is definitely a interesting place...
>In terms of genetics were closer to afghans than we are to the average Indian
and greeks are closer to turks than to nordics.
when were these built? they're beautiful
I was speaking in culture/tradition/langauge/cuisine/history/religion.
For religion there are Hindus,Sikhs,Jains,Muslims, Christians
We follow our own scriptures and guidelines and that dramatically influences our daily life choices.
There are over 121 languages in India alone. They have whole separate movie industries.
For cuisine many Hindus and Jains don't even eat meat. In my paki home going a meal without a heavy meat curry would be out of the norm while an Indian has probably never even touched meat. I believe there are some meat type restrictions for Sikhs as well. Many Sikhs and other Indians are heavy drinkers and have problems with alcholism. I don't know a single Muslim paki in my family or friend who drinks alcohol.
In music there are unique instruments to different parts of South Asia.
These are just a few that first come to mind I'm sure there are many more.
anyway my point here is that Indians (maybe even non whites in general) pointlessly bloviate about minute differences.
while euros will absorb genetically diverse creaturas (turks saami and "white mexicans" all in the same race)
it seems that whites deserve to win, because they are spiritually wishful, while the other races of the world are not. Your account is simply another tally of why this is the case.
Yes. I dont get what your point is. I'm not surprised they are.
Honestly no idea, I just found them on Pinterest. lol. In ancient/medieval times I'm assuming.

cool, still all the same race/genetic cluster.
for the record I think forced vegetarianism is an abomination
It's mostly whites in America who feel distanced from their cultural identity/background. Euros can easily find differences from another, even in Nordic regions, neighboring countries have something to say about the other.
My point:
despite their MASSIVE genetic differences, europeans desire to larp as one people
while Indians (or Desis or "south asians" kek) do not, and will endlessly nitpick about why this makes no sense (just like you did)
because of this, euros will always win and you will always lose.
