But the bigger, and more deeply ingrained problem, is that as a deeply caste-riven society, the concept of equality does not come naturally to us. We don’t believe rules apply to everyone equally and everyone is supposed to follow them. We don’t even believe everyone is equal before God, as “VIP queues” at any popular temple demonstrate.

:marseyemojirofl:

Talk about reach. Fml never was able to use my Brahmin privilege to get into those VIP queues. I guess I'm a chamar after all, where da reservations at? :marseyexcited:

There are operational reasons for the T3 mess, such as an inadequate number of counters, the holiday rush, and limited security staff. But that does not explain why people insist on making a bad situation worse, by being unruly, unmanageable, and generally unpleasant. A common complaint is that “all kinds of people” can now afford flight tickets, who don’t have the manners and etiquette of seasoned fliers.

We don’t just have a civic sense problem, we have an entitlement problem. We lack a sense of fraternity, of “we are all in this together”. The dominant castes (still overwhelmingly the dominant class) believe they should be able to pay/brawl/brag their way out of a difficult situation, and if in the process, they are making that situation more unpleasant for others, it is not their problem. All the poor civic sense traits we display – jumping signals, cutting queues – are not just to get ahead, they are to overtake, to secure one’s own exit, even if the mess continues forever.

:marseyxd:

Those darn upper chuds being able to afford flying ruined it all :marseydisagree: Back when only brave Dalitx and Muzzx flew there never was any issues. Sure 50% of the flights with the latter would spontaneously explode mid air but that's the price we must all pay for true equity :marseyagreefast:
