    I think they make better doughnuts.

    Flavor profile is more balanced. Krispy is way too sweet. Dunkin is pretty bad too.

    Havent tried Tims in the US but I imagine it’s bad. Have you tried Dunkin or Krispy Kreme? Tim Horton’s is far from perfect but guarantee as a Canadian you’ll never go back to either unless you have an American sized sweet tooth.

    Most Americans I know find Timmies too bland because they’re used to being punched in the face with HFCS.





  • Perhaps Dalits will have their civil rights progression jumps like African Americans have had in the US. I’m not so sure it’s a necessary factor though. Economically India has grown substantially in the past 15 years largely through cozying up with the West. Many Western countries now see India as an important strategic partner given its proximity to China and Russia.

    Extractionary systems exist in many post colonial nations, India being no exception. Corruption and maintenance of the status quo are a legacy of those systems.

    For a system like that to change, sure revolution is one option. But if there’s a way to democratically extricate the fascist party (a long shot I know) that’s a desirable consideration.


  • India is at the stage now that China was at 20 years ago when people were trying to take their lives jumping off Foxconn buildings due to being overworked.

    Wage suppression and unemployment are major issues. Modi’s economists have recognized the economy is at risk of underperforming due to inadequate demand (consumers not having the disposable income or time to consume goods and services).

    They’re trying to fix it with certain tax breaks but I hope the Indian people kick Modi to curb ultimately since he’s spent most of his time stoking religious tensions, scapegoating minorities and giving kickbacks to Gujurati industrialists. He’s a fascist.




  • You can’t even whisper criticism of capitalism / the free market or you will be labeled a filthy commie.

    Try saying that the Western world has set humanity on a path towards extinction by industrializing without a meaningful thought towards sustainability and youll get a response of BUT CHINA CHINA CHINA CHINA (maybe a little India) BUT CHINA by people who are considered well educated and well regarded there. Its that NYT, Washington Post aka American mainstream media brainrot. It’s quite rampant.
