What are you going to focus on? The economy thread, for instance, has some excellent stuffs that one can use to educate the general public about the nitty-gritty of econ policymaking but you will have to filter out some garbage posts too. Ditto for the DRDO thread. If you are going to make videos on policymaking/defence/foreign policy/Indian history and culture this forum has some nice niche content.

Typing mistake there
'Regarding missiles'

I'm going to focus on defence/military tech/a
too some extend industry (mic).
Regarding policy making I don't think I have that plathora of knowledge. Obviously when commenting on such thing one will have to be perfect and accurate. I will keep learning and exploring things out there.

Don't get too technical, explain as you are talking with a kid, but still in some detail.
Don't make too long of a video, Try to keep the videos ~10 minutes mostly.
Use some catchy phrases like.
" Akash, India's ramjet air shield"
" gandiva, the world leading air to air missile"
" gandiva, outraging china".
" india's future AMCA engine, leapfrogging generations, ambition and barriers"
 Etc
Hype them up, but not too much so they still sound realistic
Try to use words that generates attention.
Tying the title or thumbnail with either china or pakistan or other words that gets people's attention and clicks.

All that while trying to maintain a "professional" image, and not to be counted as one of those clickbaity youtubers.

Title and thumbnail matter as much as quality of content.
 
I came across a YouTube comment from a Chinese nationalist, and it made me think hard about this ‘Indians aren’t real Asians’ rhetoric."

So I was watching a video and ended up in the comments section (mistake #1), where this Chinese nationalist was going off about how “India has nothing to do with Southeast or East Asia” and how Indians are “desperate” to be seen as Asian. Like… huh?

At first, I thought it was just usual wumao nonsense. But I’ve seen this kind of take — mostly from wumaos — the more it feels like part of a broader ideological pattern. It's not just random ignorance; it's a calculated effort to culturally isolate India from the rest of Asia.

Let’s unpack that.

1. Denial of Obvious Historical Ties
Anyone who's ever read a history book knows that Indian culture had a massive influence on Southeast Asia. Brahmi-derived scripts? All over Thai, Khmer, Burmese, Balinese, Javanese, etc. Hindu-Buddhist architecture? Just look at Angkor Wat or Borobudur. Shared mythology, epics, kingship models — the list goes on.

To pretend India had “nothing” to do with that region is straight-up erasure.

2. Ethnicity ≠ Culture
These guys always reduce “Asianness” to East Asian facial features, languages, or Confucian values — as if Asia is one monolithic ethno-linguistic group. But Asia is a continent, not a cultural club. You can't just exclude India because it messes with your neat little East Asian civilizational bubble.

3. It’s About Narrative Control
Here’s where it gets interesting: China has been pushing a kind of “Greater China” cultural zone narrative where it frames East and Southeast Asia as part of one civilizational sphere under Chinese influence. In that view, Indian influence is inconvenient. So, it gets minimized or erased.

If you erase India’s role:
- You make Chinese influence seem more natural and dominant in Southeast Asia.
- You downplay India’s foundational role in the spread of Buddhism, which China often repackages as its own civilizational asset.
- You push India toward West Asia in terms of cultural identity, making it easier to exclude it from regional discussions or Asian unity narratives.

4. Projection
Calling Indians “desperate” to be Asian is actually projection. It’s they who are desperate to gatekeep what being Asian means — because if India is recognized as equally influential in shaping Asian history, then the idea of China as the cultural center of Asia gets a lot messier.

5. It’s Not Even About Facts — It’s About Erasure
What’s wild is that they’ll straight-up ignore archaeological records, inscriptions, shared religious traditions, or even living languages influenced by Sanskrit — just to maintain the narrative. That’s not ignorance anymore; that’s ideology.

So yeah — I’m starting to see that this whole “India ≠ Asia” thing isn’t just trolling or ignorance. It’s part of a larger geopolitical mindset: one that wants to culturally sideline India so China can be the face of Asia.

Thoughts?

IMO this is more based off of westerners, particularly american and canadian anglos putting asian == race concept and putting all slant eye= asian category.
Almost all these chinese are peddling the same white narrative - remember, Chinese are mentally colonized by the whites far more than we are - the chinese are so white loving, they even get married and do official presidential ceremonies in white people clothing and dont use their own.
So this from what i have seen, is mostly a chinese-american phenomenon. Remember, youtube is banned in China, so its unlikely a china wumao is making those videos, they are either yankee chinese mentally colonized ones or wumao in process of mental subjugation as he studies in the west.
 
Where are y'all from, I am barely live rn with 80% humidity and 35C temperature in Odisha. Feels like absolute shit.

I am scared to think about how people are gonna spend this summer without AC. Really hope they remove gst on that atleast a little bit.

my place is almost same humidity and 40 deg cels on average 🤷‍♂️

problem really isn't temperature in my opinion we can tolerate worse than that, it's FUCKING HUMIDITY AT SAME TIME :rage::frusty: - which makes it hard for body's natural perspiration system to work

India is perfect market for dehumidifiers, something that's common in SE Asian countries, China, Japan, Korea etc - but barely anyone makes it here, barely anyone sells it here for affordable price as most dehumidifiers come from phoren as imported product

overall most modern ACs have inbuilt dehumidification functions in them so dedicated machines aren't preferred in market like ours yeah but as you said, they are expensive to own and operate

and WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY YOU DESHDROHI ?! GST KAM KARO ON AC?! DON'T YOU KNOW "BRAHMAN KAUM VIDESHI HAIN INKE GHARO ME AC HAI" ?! AGAR TUMKO AC KE LIYE TAX NAHI KARENGE TOH BHEEM MEEMS KI SCHEMES KAISE CHALAENGE ?! DO YOU WANT A SMACK FROM KATHORATAA TAAI NOW?! CHUP CHAAP TAX BHARO!

I think he was a Malaysian Chinese, or could have been a Mainlander using Vpn. There are actually lots of those on youtube. (I was highlighting the spread of brahmi script and how it influenced scripts across South East Asia). At first it was just a normal debate. He kept shifting goalposts. First "India and SE and East asia have nothing to do with each other", "India is more closely related to west asia like Afghanistan and middle East.", to "India and SE and East Asia aren't ethnolinguistically similar, which is the main thing" to "India and Asians aren't the same, you want to colonise SE Asia like Nepal" to "You crazy Indian. We don't want caste system here.", "We are Buddhists, not cow worshippers".

Honestly, the amount of time I have seen arguments or debates devolve like this. It's not even funny anymore.

Trying to sound intellectual ->
Giving false or biased information ->
Deny actual verified information with source ->
Shifting goalposts when cornered -> Personal attacks and use of slurs.

Yes, this makes me 99.9% sure this dude is yankee chinku or yankee asian of some extaction.
Go to actual Fb pages of SE Asian sites ( i visit several) and most people there are 'india is mother but mom please stay outta me and our sibling fights' as thai go vs cambodians and indonesians go vs malays.

Actual chinese are less indophobic than this because in LANGUAGE they are indo-centric.
What is India called in middle chinese ? 'tianzhu'. meaning 'western heaven' ( they are the central heaven, we are west of them and first land they consider their equal)
What is India called TODAY in China ? Indu-guo. LITERALLY 'hindu rashtra' as 'indu=hindu' and 'guo = nation'.

So these are unlikely kind of propaganda to be done by mainlander chinese. its the yankee chinese who do this as cultural and mental slaves of whites.

Umm, I think the Mainlanders are also very indophobic and ignorant. Based on what I have seen on zhihu and weibo, they spread all sorts of conspiracies and ignorant stuff about india. I have talked with some of them (pre-2020) and they had a very skewed perception of India and caste system.
Honestly, if you check out zhihu, and there is a question there "What were the castes of the protagonists of the movie 3 idiots". And the replies are unintentionally hilarious. I think they were being serious, but I couldn't help but just laugh at how ignorant it was.

Yes, they do. But their indophobia is of a very different nature than those of yankee chinese. The mainland chinese does the whole 'pakis are more indians than indians' crap, they do the whole ' urine drinker, cow poop smelly people' stuff.
they worry about caste, they worry about highways etc.
But the moment you start seeing 'asian is a race, indians are not asians' its 99.9% gurantee to be burgerland chinku.

Bro, where i live in Canada, it can snow in ANY given month except August. And it has.
Normally april is the transition zone of few days of minus followed by few days of plus, etc but we dont see consistent double digit plus temperatures till mid may. and it lasts till mid september.
mid sept to mid nov and april to mid may = this type of semi-frozen weather. late sept to late march = 2 tenths off of absolute zero.
