when you see an {{{indian american}}} use the term "aryan" to refer to white people i'm calling that a 5-coconut event

mleccha context: 'arya' is an indo-aryan and iranian word which refers to freeborn members of the tribal community (not slaves, not foreigners, etc.). it's like "the people"

19th europeans borrowed for philology

20th century european fascists popularized it for gentile whites

now children of {{{indian}}} immigrants to the west raised in a white env. are using the 3rd order definition in the 21st century against white people, even tho their ancestors originated the usage of the term as an endonym

also, to be clear, the person i'm subtweeting *knows exactly what they are doing* they're not ignorant. they're using the master's tools against the master
