Wow I didn't know that. I'm from a very homogeneous country, India. This concept of diversity is unfamiliar to me.

And Indians tend to refer to themselves as Bengali, Tamil, Telegu, etc...

So why is Americans giving a more culturally specific title at times confusing to you?

They sound like a bratty teenager. If we're taking their comments at face value, they probably get a lot of praise from their friends with cheap digs at America even if the same problems exist in their own culture.
