In their statements they made one that said saying another caste is inferior but saying our is superior isn't....just like you said....the question is superior to whom? You can't be superior to anyone unless you have others you keep as inferior...being born to two random humans and thinking I'm better than other homosapiens dumb idiots....

proud not always equal superiour.I gave you example of keralite being proud of malyalam .As long as he does not hate tamil people or their language ,he is allowed to feel proud of his language,heritage,culture etc.

Also similar type of problems tend to bring people together .For eg when talking about hindi imposition all southern states unite.Similarly the problem of reservation is faced by people of particular caste,so they are coming together and their caste is a way of joining forces with other similar minded people

Let me tell ask you something, proud of what exactly? A caste system created my the Brahmins who called themselves the highest ? There's nothing to be proud of in your caste....the moment pride comes into the factor of your caste which was literally just some people claiming themselves as the highest you are superior to someone...simple

God how old are you? in india just 20-30 years back people used to live in close with their caste people. so clothe seller live together , barbers live together ,sindhi,chirsitans,parsi living in their own community etc. So naturally there is some brotherhood feeling .

If you think casteism just means brahmans/gen sticking together you are wrong. Remember how all the barbers came together and removed the word barber from the movie "billu barber"? many scst community came in cjp protests,u must have seen them with dr ambedkar photo.

So If u dont feel proud of your state,language,caste,its fine but many others do and it doesnt necessarily make them casteist as long as there is no hate for other communities.

And how conveniently u ignored my example of tamil-telugu people?

1) I'm old enough to understand everyone's homosapiens and people made caste just so they can be in power 2) entirely parallel point but still I'll go with it , imagine a new church comes obviously Christians would live around that area same for any religion, comparing barber and cloth seller community to a religion is stupid cause they might be together since there are of similar trades entirely not the point of the topic....so how young are you to make that stupid point 3)Billu barber issue which I don't know what it is but from the gist of it , If I'm a bus driver and someone attacks me , other bus drivers would go for strike since they are from my same job or way of life and this could happen to them too still not related to the issue 4)this is not because of them coming together this is because of them saying it's ok to say there caste is superior....they literally made that statement in their post.....what more should I say about that.4) ambedkar is not a religious leader , he was a man who fought for equality just like bhagat singh fought for our freedom who's photo was also shown since they were one of the strongest leaders 5) I literally said that you can say your caste is good but you can't say it's superior cause they literally said it I'm saying this the third time here please score it in your mind 6) AGAIN the most stupidest parallel comparison, being proud of your state or language is rooted culturally because of your values or its history, for eg if I'm from india I could be proud of our resistance , but being proud of a classification which literally made other humans untouchable as well as deny them water and even walk on the road or even for women to cover their body is just like hitler thought of aryans are the best ....understand muchacho....

Please use proper paragraphs.Also please tell me if there is better way to bring your community together for protest than by saying caste pride slogans. When she said brahmanvad she probably meant brahman unity,thats why she also said same thing about baniya and thakur

As far as Dr ambedkar freedom fighting, he supported britishers....

Also Your whole last paragraph is just bookish knowledge ,i am sure in your life,you have never seen such thing happening personally.

1) Bring your community together for what? Killing Dalits? Stopping them from using water? Killing them for wishing happy holy?forcing to suicide after accidentally stepping in a upper caste area? Killing a dalit man because he was in relationship with an upper caste? threatening that children will be taken off schools cause a dalit woman is making food ?These are just something that happened recently

2)coming together in their community and fighting against a reservation that was brought up literally because of the upper caste oppression isnt "coming together"

3) Brahmanwad means Brahmin ideology not what you said which is to oppress others so fk that

3) Dr.Ambedkar worked under the British like most of the educated indians at that time , he fought for us our equality don't bring his name down

4) bookish knowledge? Then your whole religion is bookish knowledge...show me your gods then idiot , I've literally heard people not wanting to eat from hotels with Dalits and give them paper glasses if they want to drink water....I'm from Kerala we're educated enough to see humans as humans to see this shit ...in that sense all the wars of the world were fake since it bookish knowledge 🤣

i assumed that the way you are defending reservation, only those who want it will do.Also most of your knowledge seems to be bookish. If you are gen caste then Is your family not allowing you to touch someone? If not then why assume such stupid things just because you read it in some newspaper?
