Winston Churchill and the ethics of Indian tech support scams: a thread
India, once the pearl of Asia, used to account for 20% of the world's GDP. However, after the atrocities and exploitation of the British, especially old white Brits, their share of global GDP dropped to just 2%. Untold trillions in wealth squandered, extracted.
The effects of this exploitation and extraction were felt by all levels of Indian society (and are still felt today).

Here, we bring in Indian tech scammers, the modern Robin Hoods. They ought to be seen as national heroes and just.
Whereas British extraction targeted all of Indian society, but was perpetrated by an old white elite, Indian scammers generally only target the old white elite of anglophone nations. This is direct justice and should merely be seen as them taking back a fraction of the money.
Where Gandhi said "an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth makes everyone blind and toothless" Churchill took to heart the opposite maxim, and so too do these scammers.
