@nytimes here are all the flaws in this article:
-
-
-
@nytimes Fails to mention that b4 the Brits came over every1 lived happily (yes there were fights, still). It was referred 2 as the Bengal. -
@nytimes South Asia has 7 countries: including Bangladesh (Muslim), Sri Lanka (Hindu), Nepal (Buddhist) etc -
@nytimes there's a lot of diversity in the area, and the article just talks about one perspective (Hindu) -
@nytimes Also, Indian was a term used by the colonizers to label everyone in one area even though they were different. -
@nytimes ok bye, cuz I can keep going. I'm Bengali and I want to be referred to as a south Asian, not Indian

@nytimes South Asia all the way. Btw doesn't mention Bangladesh as being a part of South Asia, which seems like a pretty big oversight

@nytimes neither India or South Asia seem correct. South West Asia or Indian Subcontinent.pic.twitter.com/RhoNgWJ5cg

@nytimes India is the name of a country. Calling the region India would only create confusion.
