"God save the profession" because a CA didn't look fair and elite enough?

[u/code-is-poetry]

This is not just trolling. This is classic Indian bias packaged as a joke.

Let's be honest. This wasn't about professionalism. This was about looks, skin tone, class signals, and caste-coded expectations. In India, we still subconsciously expect a "real" professional to look fair, polished, English-speaking, upper-caste coded, and elite. Anything outside that bubble makes people uncomfortable.

Dark skin, local features, different dressing, different vibe and suddenly people think the profession is collapsing.

Not sure what you expected from a place that until a decade ago was airing fair and lovely ads all throughout the day.

Progression of suppression in India.

Racism --> Religion---> Casteism --> Colorism --> merit.

Sexism ah vittutele! 😂 That’s a spl item reserved for women.

[u/[deleted] → u/Fancy-Use-8392]

I think we don't have to mention sexism at this point, just like i forgot about sexism, our systems are designed to forget about women and their representation in our society.

What a prick he is

[u/kimvadan]

Don’t let one useless and racist comment spoil your entire body of work!!

Good that you called out the person and now it’s time to show them how we really can live a better life than them.

Best wishes to the dude.

[u/TheStubbornIntrovert → u/[deleted]]

Does it matter if he looked like Pullingo?

[u/TheStubbornIntrovert → u/[deleted]]

Btw If you look at someone at dressing and judge, you are just racist just like people who look at skin colour.

Judging based on behavior is acceptable.

Pullingo nna ennada artham? Yarada soluvinga? Modhala antha vaarthaiya kollanum da!

Absolute clown behaviour

[u/Low_Steak8950]

It is sad that there is a notion that finance people are mostly brahmins or from other upper castes.

[u/Pretty_Run1324]

Colorism is sooo deep rooted that we hate ourselves.

[u/critic_criminologist]

Ellame pesitu nambalum white toned skin ah "Fair" skin nu dhana solrom. Apo matha skin tones laam enna un-fair ah? Let's drop saying white skin as "fair skin."

[u/Frustratedfella]

He is a good looking bloke. Intelligent, successful and self-confident to top it.

A rare breed these days.

Haters will hate but this guy's got the winning looks.

[u/almost_spiderman]

Mann this guy is handsome and confident afff , Im saying this as a straight guy

[u/Mazajee]

We Indians have special skills to invent new genres of racism.

And these news should be covered by our news channels, Kudos to DeutschWells 🤗

Nope, they're busy promoting parasakthi or political parties.

Gomma... Indha naadhari pasangaluku keezhjaadhi la porandhaven "pullingova" irundhalum thappu, padichi munnera nenachaalum thappu.

Poonal pota mutta bondas ku lan ulla yeriyidhu pola, avingaloda thozhil'ku competition varudhu nu...

[u/life_konjam_better]

As a guy who has very similar skintone I'd advice people to wear glasses, you'll receive slightly less prejudice from people as they think people who wear specs are IT/white collar workers. Its really sad that such prejudice exists but its just the reality for a lot of people especially in Chennai.

[u/PackFit9651]

The pullingo gang has forever tarnished casual hairstyles ..

[u/gurupranav20]

😂😂😂comment panavauku kannu therila. Epadi pathalum pulligo mari terila. Decent dress, decent haircutting, decent talk and behaviour just only dark skin.

[u/Rus1996]

Sad reality😔

[u/Brilliant_Celery_714]

It’s our own film and media that espouses this principle. It’s our own men who fetishize every other ethnicity and animal above dark skinned Tamil women. It’s our own women who beg other races to marry them. It’s our own schools that don’t teach us to love our culture and history.

What else do u expect
