While they have long assimilated, their contributions to nation-building must be recognised.

Yesterday I played my second game of DBMM with my EIR army. I was lucky with my river placement which held back my opponent’s Pathans. End result was a draw.

I had to explain this to an 'anti-racism tutor' that his 'colorism' explanation of colonialism in South Asia didn't work.

In South Asia it was Native light-complexioned Pashtuns/Pathans who fought colonialism & were subjected to concentration camps & extermination.

Natives have/had it the worst.

Bannon is going to be furious with Musk & the others.

He really wanted Lina Khan in the Trump administration.

Pleased to see one of my fellow Pathans (that's Parthians to those who don't know) joining Zohran.
TRANSITION CO-CHAIR LINA KHAN!?!?!??!

My granddad was in the Indian Army at the end of the Raj.

If you read up, you find there was a league table of Asian races, with people called "martial castes" (eg Sikhs, Rajputs, Pathans/Pashtuns) at the top.

It's hard to get your head round the thinking.

I'm going to say his cultural background.

Lina is Pathan. There's definitely a pattern of 'Anglo-Saxon Empire' antagonism towards Pathans. That was particularly noticeable during the War of Terror when Brookings academics were calling for ethnic cleansing.

Indians & Pathans don't have that.

Is there any research on colonial Brit habit of choosing servants from specific ethnicities? Sikhs for cops, Pathans ad Gurkhas for soldiers, Bengalis for clerks, Indian Tamils for rubber tappers, Ceylonese Tamils for English teachers...
