John_Galt First of all you are just half understandable, and that’s the first characteristic of a boun. Congrats, Not only in South Asia the domination of the intellectually superior has existed everywhere in the world. In other words “the survival of the fittest.”. In Hinduism Chanakya (yes the tuppiwal in a hindi TV seria if you were born a khaire bounl) was the first one who said that people who lost their Gotras and are being treated as slaves could also belong to the Aryan Race. Therefore, we might have been showing prejudice to our own people. He could not change anything in his lifetime 2000 years ago. Later a similar argument was made by VikakaNanda. Having said that someone could claim that it happens only in Eastern civilizations. The answer is no. It was there (present) in Mesopotamia and Egypt as well. Read goldsmith and you would know that it was there in England as well. Beside yon straggling fence that skirts the way With blossom'd furze unprofitably gay, There, in his mansion, skill'd to rule, The village master taught his little school; A man severe he was, and stern to view, I knew him well, and every truant knew; Well had the boding tremblers learn'd to trace The days disasters in his morning face; Full well they laugh'd with counterfeited glee, At all his jokes, for many a joke had he: Full well the busy whisper, circling round, Convey'd the dismal tidings when he frown'd: Yet he was kind; or if severe in aught, The love he bore to learning was in fault. The village all declar'd how much he knew; 'Twas certain he could write, and cipher too: Lands he could measure, terms and tides presage, And e'en the story ran that he could gauge. In arguing too, the person own'd his skill, For e'en though vanquish'd he could argue still; While words of learned length and thund'ring sound Amazed the gazing rustics rang'd around; And still they gaz'd and still the wonder grew, That one small head could carry all he knew. But past is all his fame. The very spot Where many a time he triumph'd is forgot To sum up. Please do not think that bouns are the problems. Bouns are just the intellectually superior people and are known as various names around the world. If you want you can define bouns as all the politicians or the business tycoons of the world as well. Therefore my friend, please do not be shamed of what you are. Bouns will be there till there are people living in the world.
