Intersing kind words...but ......seems like a facade...in hiding real problem.... I think feel goods are good.... I have good friends from all types of ethnic groups.... I agree ethnic attacks are not the way to go.... However feel goods are a cover... I think it is good to get the goods out on to the table sometime.... we don't live in a stepford wives type of community... everyone has biases and no one is immune.... Sometimes it is good to get the most controversial thoughts out into a discussion forum...because it bring in reality to the color coded, candy laden world we live in.... Everyone has a bit of ethnocentric, racist in them.... there is no pure black and white world we live in.....everyone has good and evil within them.... Be blunt state the problem and note that we have a problem, and then truly can we only solve the problem.... Niceness only goes so far.... Truth hurts sometimes but only if we acknowledge the truth can problems be solved… So why do people feel negative about Newars, Why do we contempt for Bahuns, What do we think of the other ethnic groups…. Everyone should lay it out. …Then can we really address what is, instead of looking at the world through rose-colored glasses…
