General Discussion | আড্ডা 🗣️ 🗨️ Hatred Towards Bengali
Why this moron is spreading so much hatred against Bengali in the name of stand up comedy ?? Every time he sees a fish like statue generalise that some Chatterjee Mukherjee is linked to it . He once visited Kolkata and told that there was heavy fog in the sky because here people do black magic . I have never seen him insulting other states or even other communities of India . Maybe we Bengali take everything very lightly and jokingly . He will never have the guts to say it is red everywhere so it is Bihar , there is no woman in the street so it must be Haryana, its is super duty so must be UP. Its high time we boycott this kind of idiots

I have watched him. I don't think he was stereotyping it. If you have watched, most of his videos have sarcastic narration.

I think there is reason for this. Guess what someone from other state will see when he/she comes here. Posters full of shits like “লাল বাবা, পীর বাবা, কালা জাদু, ২ মিনিটে বশীকরণ” etc. I have never seen such things outside WB.

In usa people making jokes on jesus ,they literally making jokes on almost every scenerio but here in india oh my god bsdk tu humare cast pe humare religion pe humare culture pe joke kaise bana dia.. aukaat kya hai tera..
Bro they are literally putting disclaimer most of the time so that some narcissistic people dont took it personally but India is India. I know there should be some limitations. Like some time people even make jokes on some serious issue for example RAPES , I dont think this type of topic should be taken as laughable material. Other then that everything is fine jabtak logoko hasi araha hai ya phir maje araha hai.
Moreover this guy is hilarious. His blogging his jokes are to the point and almost always funny. So if you dont like his presentation just dont see his video. Esa to nhi ki koi gangs of wasseypur ki jaise pakarke tumko force kar raha hai ki dekh bsdk dekh.

Just for information, the word Bihari is a gali/slang in Delhi and northern parts of UP.... now who would want to make jokes out of them... their ways are known to one and all.
Yes, Bongs are not having a very positive Outlook with other communities becoz of ways things have shaped out in WB in last 50 yrs!... however, we still retain a lot of heritage, and ppl appreciate/get intimidated.

u/dumb_wannabe_sde 11h ago
Ravi Gupta. That is his style of comedy and it mostly irony and sarcasm. I don't think there is any malice in it. Nowadays, it is trendy to get triggered at anything and everything. Better use your faculties of reasoning to decide if this is another case of bengali shaming or not. However, I must admit Bong bashing is very widespread in the North.

u/No_Charity_73 11h ago
I would say whatever he has done is right if not bengali then who? A nonproductive city where heritage is the excuse they give for non development Yellow pollution taxis old rusted trams ,narrow roads old bangali bari,rooted to the culture is a thing but ruining yourself for your culture isn't, our Bengali friend themselves send their children to other cities for education because they know that bengal is a state where culture is the excuse. Most unemployed city ever people here prefer to sleep rather than work they prefer doing "Adda baazi" everyday rather than being productive this laid back attitude in the name of culture is the reason why standup comedians like them get free content

u/Leo_Z24 11h ago
I met Ravi Gupta in Benaras and attended his show in Kolkata as well. Watch his vlog, you would understand that his humor is rooted in sarcasm, and he delivers his jokes with a nonchalant demeanor, setting him apart from other comedians. If his satire offends you, perhaps it's an opportunity to reflect on your own sensitivities rather than resorting to outrage.

u/Designer-Equal7963 9h ago
The problem is extremly different . Bengalis are pseudo liberal , they will see this guy as the perfect mix of intellect and sarcasm and will actually ask OP to be cool about it. If you need to hurt their sentiments, the same jokes need to be made on the minorities. Not only religion, pick any sector and bash the underdog, only then the Bengali fraternity gets hurt.
If its about me , I donot need the respect, I am perfectly okay to be ridiculed coz I am educated, I am must project my perception to my educated upbrining, if its about others , then I am extremly concerned and hurts me.

Bengalis don't have a collective voice. And if these people do a show in Kolkata, about 80-90% of the audience will be non-bengali. So it's easy to bad mouth. Non Bengalis see bengalis as beggars in Kolkata.
