Pseudopatriotism is the most detrimental factor that's hurt our growth. We tend to wear our pride on our sleeves. I remember having a convo with a buddy of mine who was anti-Indians and I'd tell him how if it weren't for "dhotis", 50 percent of Nepalese would find it really hard to survive, even in Nepal and he remained adamant that regardless, they were all thugs and we didn't really have to depend on them. 

Fastforward 4 years from that day and he was busy looking for an Indian Consultancy to 'save his status'. We talked earlier this week, for the first time in 3 years, and now he's making a decent money and even now, he's talking shit about them because he's a 'Nepalier Nepali' than many. I guess that's the case with plenty of fools. This also reminds me of a friend of mine who hates India and Indian cricket team but he absolutely loves Indian movies, actors, actresses, tv channels.

Yeah, "dhotis" are all thugs, we are Nepalese and we should all hate them because they are ugly, corrupted bunch but when you go look at yourself on the mirror, what do you see? Similar person, perhaps lighter complexion, same accent, same culture. Carbon copy of an Indian thug?
