Shekhar Khanal, I am a Nepali Bahun but a citizen of Bhutan. I am just as much Nepali as you or anyone else. In fact, I have lived in Bhutan for 23 years before coming here, while you have been living in the US for many years more than me. How can you say I am not core Nepali but you are? You have no right to say that. I probably have more knowledge about Nepali language, food, culture than you because I have lived in that part of the world. Just because your birth certificate is from Nepal, does not make you more Nepali than me.

I want to live with Nepalis because I am a Nepali, I don't speak Bhutanese or follow their culture. All Nepalis and Bahuns in Bhutan live the Nepali way, and we respect everyone. How can you say we are different from you? You have clearly not travelled to the Nepali speaking regions of Bhutan and India. 

The part of Bhutan I come from is developed and the standard of living is good. My grandparents moved there from Nepal because they said Kathmandu is now full of "chor, crime, criminals". So if anyone has a bad reputation, it is the Nepali citizens, not us Nepalis from Bhutan/India/Burma.
You talk like an entitled person, thinking you're better than expected everyone else. And we don't call Indians "dhotis" like you people do. Shameful. Are you a Trump voter?
