I was not a fan of the Dot People until a few things happened over the years. I saw a guy we bricked a house for get threatened with letters over moving into a white neighborhood. I believe he was a doctor. I was embarrassed that I might have known who did it.
The next was that I started going to India and dealing with the locals. The pinnacle was when a Hindu guy I worked with years ago in Canada found out that I was going to Mumbai. He contacted all his old university buddies (Hindus and Sikhs) and a crew of them showed up at my hotel and ate and drank with me till I was completely caught up on the culture and history of the country. Unfortunately I got drunk enough that I forgot most of it. Funny guys, just like us, all about the tail and the partying.
So now whenever I'm in Canada and the dead eyed guy at the gas station is taking my money I'll engage him and ask how long he's been here, or what Province he was born in. It can take a few seconds to get their trust, but once they realize your not going to try and pull start their turban, or criticize their English they start talking like anybody else. Politics, weather whatever.
I try to imagine what it was like when my grandparents got off the boat and I have to assume it was pretty sh*tty not knowing the language and everyone looking down on them like trash because they were willing to shovel sh*t for a dime a day if someone would have offered it. My Grandma was a maid and two generations later her DNA has gone all around the world and back. I'd like to think I can do my little part to give others the same opportunity to fit in when they pull up roots for a better life.

The Indians here own a bunch of hotels and gas stations and about half the doctors in town are Indian.
Sikh or Hindu.... They don't cause problems and are generally positive to interact with especially once they know you and then they are friends for life.
Bosniaks and Somalians are the opposite

I measured it in Google Earth when I looked up the coordinates but I don't recall exactly other than those tire tracks are 16 feet apart (BIG mining dump truck size) The four buildings on the end that don't look like the row of things next to them are over 330 feet long and 465 feet apart if I recall.
The whole site is about a mile and a half long

Oh spamy Glamy, why do you need Uncle Nico to stoke your fire? Do you really believe the man in the Moon is for real and that mushroom tea will take me there and back? (been a lot of places on the zoomer express, but never the Moon) I don’t believe there is intelligent life in the Moon, but I respect that you want and need to believe that there is.
You don’t like Earth, probably because you’re a first wave star seed, or whatever Dolores Cannon calls them. Have you read her stuff? You really should, she would answer all your questions and then some. You don’t belong here Dude, that’s why you like the sea and the dunes and even Chewbacca, they remind you of your highly advanced home planet. Just remember, you volunteered for this ride, so don’t be such a little bit*h about it. You’ll be back home with the rest of the Glamidiaimites soon enough.
Now me, I’m totally into this world. First generation, Aries and all. I could watch an ant hill for hours without being stoned and be fascinated the whole time. If I could stay on the rock forever I’d be cool with it. Still a trillion things to see and do, I wish I was born a caveman. See how we’re different? You got sick of this place before you were 20 and I’ll be fascinated with it till the day I die even with all humanities faults. Like the man in black said on his way out the door; “meditate on it”.

No argument, we ARE the biggest problem on this rock. We don't belong here, it's obvious. That's why I like it so much, lots to see and do and its all new!
Fukushima, acid rain and the plastic masses in the seas are just trailers before the main feature when something really big happens like a meteor strike, or a solar flare that takes out all the grids. I'd have rather been born 1,000 years ago, cuz it's not going to get better on this rock until we leave.

I'll agree with the high level of apathy in this country but that's a by-product of living in security and prosperity. That apathy will go away real quick when the right kinds of hardships finally set in, so I think it's a waiting game (at least that's my opinion). We're a nation of spoiled little children right now but you take away everyone's toys and snacks and it will definitely agitate the natives very quickly.
Here's yo video linky you mentioned......
