I feel like a lot of people are defending and pandering Muslims. But I want to make people aware that a lot of shit (racism/colourism) exists between Pakistanis and South Indians.
I grew up in West London, where Indians, Jews, and a lot of East Asians live; North Indians and South Indians get along as if no differences existed, and I call myself 'Indian' without any problems (I am of Sri Lankan ancestry).
Muslims (Pakistanis/Bangladeshis) live on the opposite side of London, with Blacks in an area called East London, and we don't really mix. I've only ever had one Pakistani acquaintance in my entire life.
I say this as a second-generation private-schooled youth who grew up in a middle-class area with predominantly white friends: a lot of shit exists between Pakistanis and Indians. Pakistanis are still very racist and colourist towards South Indians. The majority of hate-shit on the internet is from Pakistanis.
There's is so much shit involved, I can't type it all up because it would take up at least two pages. But it would really help if South Indians got some help fighting back against Pakistanis; the majority of the time, I get pushed aside because 'Muslims obviously get it bad' but it's very alienating as a South Indian.
They have a stereotype in London: "chavvy". It's hard to translate into American English, but it describes the differences between Indians and Pakistanis, and it's important because it pretty much relates to Pakistanis worldwide.
