    Southern Brahmins are not Southern people who were influenced by Sanskrit. They are Northern people who live in the South. - that’s a ridiculous statement and a very racist one.

    “these people, regardless of when they got here, have against all numerical odds, managed to keep themselves “genetically pure” for a very long time, and such an act can only be achieved via active caste-based discrimination” again a very racist statement , you can’t say they managed keep their race pure . its unhistorical and unscientific statement similarly to Nazi racism.

    The Brahmins of South India had mixed with ancestral South Indians and brahmins alone didn’t drove the agenda , the state religion of Tamil was Hinduism in 200 BC. You know nothing of Indian history and have a sectarian view of Southern and Northern people. And people shouldn’t follow Periyar and Ambedkar blindly . They drew their conclusions based on flawed colonial era theory that Aryans were solely north Indians , its not. The commies of India don’t hate brahmins or southern/Northern people , we hate the inherent caste structure based on land ownership and economic inequality , whatever Periyar and Ambedkar has said they failed to grasp the main problem behind the caste , which is zamindari system and vast land ownership by upper caste , even Ambedkar has mentioned Northern kshatriyas are more powerful than Brahmins , why ? Because of land ownership .

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pa3BV50PcLw&t=253s , https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NQX5LlJ7YXg You can search various research papers mentioned in the video. regarding Brahmins or not , A population living from 200 BC cannot be considered outsider by any logic.

    These brahmins drove the sanskritization. This sanskritizing/brahminizing influence was more complete in Maharashtra and Odisha, and was totally complete in the Gangetic Plain This theory is utter BS , There is no indo Gangetic plain problem , Kabir , Meera , Chaitanya , Nanak came from North only. And a whole branch of CPIM originated from North.

      You can. Because they did. All you have to do is look at their DNA

      Obviously no races are pure. But you can claim purity from a certain reference point, the same way you can say that a recipe needs “20% mayonnaise” even though mayonnaise is inherently a mixture of ingredients.

      The following is a list of Indoeuropean Steppe-ancestry fractions for the Brahmins vs. the non-Brahmins of the given state:

      Tamils: 20% vs. 3%
      Bengalis: 25% vs. 12%
      Gujaratis: 26% vs. 14%
      Uttar Pradesh: 27% vs. 15%

      Tamil Brahmins are basically 75% identical to Brahmins from Uttar Pradesh, meaning only 25% of their ancestry comes from actual South Indians.
      In fact, Brahmins of any Indian state are more related to each other than they are to the actual people of the state they reside in.

      Now ask yourself: How does such a population stay that pure and distinct for 2000 years? Or 4000 years, in the case of the northern states? The only way to do that is through extreme casteism.

      Why did the South have these anti-caste movements like Lingayatism, etc.? Because for whatever reason (mostly geography and distance) Brahmins weren’t able to socially and culturally dominate these places

      It’s not racist or nazi to point this out. That’s like saying it’s racist to point out that the richest Mexicans are Spanish immigrants.

      The commies of India don’t hate brahmins or southern/Northern people , we hate the inherent caste structure based on land ownership and economic inequality

      And wouldn’t it make sense that said inequality is going to be worse wherever brahiminization was the highest?

        Bro you are a nazi and a racist to the core. 95 percent of Indians don’t marry outside the caste, Southerners are no angelic people and are no superior to Northerners . I don’t want to hear your justification for your utter BS. I am a communist not a fucking racist ambedkarite who hate brahmins for just for being brahmins . We commies hate the system not the people itself , you are no different from Nazis , just you have a caste cover to justify your northern hatred. You are getting a block from me. https://www.thehindu.com/data/Just-5-per-cent-of-Indian-marriages-are-inter-caste/article60099878.ece

        Even Bihar has higher inter caste marriage than TN… Lol, so much for caste free society in South India.

          My brother in Shiva, the statistic you just posted lists 2 out of the 4 South Indian states as having “very high” intercaste marriage

          and the other three are basically South lite (Goa) or not Gangetic (Punjab and Meghalaya). No idea why Tamil Nadu is so low but I guess I learned something today, apparently casteism is very high there.

          Also I hardly know anything about Ambedkarism. I’m just basing this off my my actual experiences talking to many different Indians from many different states. The most reactionary people I’ve talked to heavily skew northeastern/Gangetic
