India wd hv achieved much more by now if Great Britain had not invaded n colonized it for 200-300 years. The British were thieves. They looted India for years n years n sent back the loot to Britain. The crown n jewels are still in England. Have you no shame Great Britain???????? Return the loot back to India !!!!!! Frankly I personally feel Indian brains are superior to white brains. The future achievements of India are further going to shock the Western world. Stop being childish and immature. You make yrself the laughing stock in the world !!!

With all due respect to rick, I don't think his opinion holds a lot of weight when it comes to believing what INDIANS can find racist or not racist, because his lived experience as a white man is different from people of color. I still hold his views in high regard but it is the same as expecting a man to find what is misogynistic. During my travels in the US, there have been so many things people have done that aren't outright racism but still make me FEEL like I don't belong there. You can't call it out because the people who do it are cunning enough to never cross the line and be clearly racist, but they always make you feel inferior or insecure in some way or the other.

[@gouthamkrishnaks2424]

I'm a graphic designer. If you ask me, talking about the complex actual meaning about a design, or an artwork is pointless if a simple look at it has another obvious meaning. For example, if I draw many lines, curves and circles on a black board in a classroom full of kids and it ends up resembling a naked woman's body at first glance, is it ok that I say, "Oh that's not how you should look at it... break it down and look at the geometric shapes" or something? No! Cartoons are not even supposed to be "Complex artworks". There is no point in looking at a cartoon's deep inner meanings if one good look at it gives the exact opposite idea...

[@EagleOverTheSea]

Art is always subject to interpretation and we often read into a poem (for example) more than the poet may have intended.

[@gouthamkrishna7574]

​@@EagleOverTheSeaInterpretations are only subective to complex arts bro. A cartoon is not something that should be analysed 3 hours and broken down to understand. If I draw a flower, it's art. But there maybe many other interpeetations to it. Geometry, beauty, nature and all are coined to it. But at first glance it's a flower. We look for complex meanings in complex arts only. Not in cartoons...

[@AriaIsara]

A cartoon can be ironic and have a 2nd level of reading, but there isn't one here and if there is Rick has not explained it. He just claimed the meaning was something else without pointing out which elements of the drawing made him say so. For example, the Indian man could have been drawn with a winning smile and the elite members making dumb faces, and it would have showed who was actually mocked. Here there just isn't any details that imply satire...

[@suraj7119]

I think its just a recurring thing. Rick just makes up his mind in the first few seconds of a video, and then its clearly visible on his face that he isn't able to get over that. The thumb rule of a joke / satire / comment / observation is that the subject of it should be comfortable with it. Its that simple. If a cartoon is made showing India as a probably impoverished guy with a cow, knocking at the door of "Elite space club", you cannot decide if its a "satire" or not racist. Its on / against us. You dont have to agree with something, but be freaking open to a video and what its trying to say before making up your mind on one point at the beginning of a video And irrespective of my views on the news channel, the anchor (both, I don't like)...this video just points out straight facts. Sometimes we just have to acknowledge facts, and question the ridiculousness that these statements were made without taking a random stance. Whenever an incident happens in any country, or a leader / famous personality of a nation makes any ridiculous statement, the news always gets reported with the tag of that country / region, and not just that particular person. When something happens in India, and a lot happens here, the news reported is always with the tag of India, which drives the perception of the country as a whole, and not just an individual. Would this video have made more sense if it said British instead of the west? Yes. But, one could say the same that it was just a couple of British influencers not the entire country. And there's also that condescending cartoon which was from NY Times.

[@keshavbedi]

Is it racist to point out paradox of a dirt poor country having space aspirations?

[@Tech-speaker]

As a satirist I can say you have no effing idea what satire even means. The thumb rule of satire is that the person/institution/entity/community in question should be comfortable with the satirical remark? Which planet are you from? The entire effing purpose of satire is to mercilessly mock and ridicule Authority (god, religion, governments, patriarchy, monarchy, central banks, and even communities when they become oppressive in practice). As a matter of fact satire doesn’t even need to be funny but since most people (especially someone as sensitive as you) would not be able to digest pure satire, satirists attempt to introduce humour into the script to reach a wider audience and make it slightly palatable to the masses. But that in no way means that the thumb rule of satire becomes ensuring people are comfortable and their feelings are not hurt. With respect to the NYC cartoon I agree it is in very poor taste (western elitism at play) to show India as a poor peasant with a cow knocking on the doors of “civilised society with scientific temper”. The satirist clearly missed the mark on this one because they have preconceived notions of India. If they were better informed they could have drawn the same cartoon with the same fat western elites but represented India with maybe a guy in traditional Indian clothes knocking at the door with a miniature rocket in hand or a jetpack on his back (and no cows). So yeah satirists miss the mark sometimes but the purpose of satire is to punch above its weight and with no regard whatsoever for feelings of the target (or the target audience). The intent of this cartoon was to mock and ridicule the rich fat western elites sitting inside not India or Indians but like I explained they clearly messed it up with a terrible representation of the Indian with a cow (which represents India). If most of society were smarter than you I would be pursuing my passion (satire) full time but I am a part time satirist because of fellow Indians like you. You believe satirists shud keep people’s feelings in mind while creating their stories. From Voltaire to South Park all of us satirists have been subject to weak minds like yours whose feelings get in the way of progress (the desired outcome of every well made satirical piece). Hopefully one day we will live in an India where satirists mocking Authority is welcomed and appreciated without being told how people’s feelings and comfort are paramount.

With Rick on actually finding the actual context of the cartoon rather forming opinions on just face value. That's how IMO opinions should be formed.

@@Raider4967 I didn't defend the cartoon in my comment lol. My comment was in relation to people being mad about rick looking for context.

[@wolverineiscool7161]

@@rachittewari2485 Context of the cartoon could be whatever you want it to be but the simple fact stands that on face value it's blatantly racist. So, you're saying every single person should look for the deeper context? Face value exits for a reason. Rick giving more importance to context than face value would feel like an attempt to downplay the racist cartoon by NY times to many.

[@AriaIsara]

A political satire doesn't need context. There is simply no 2nd level of reading in that cartoon. And checking up the context is good, just to be sure, but the immediate reaction should be that the cartoon is indeed offensive and in no way ironic or satirical. Then you can look it up to know more. But Rick's first reaction was that the cartoon is good and the hidden meaning is to say the west is elitist lol that's not how satire works. It doesn't have "hidden meanings". It has very specific elements in the drawing showing you what it wants to say. It's 2nd level not hidden. And Rick failed at pointing anything in the cartoon indicating that it was the west being mocked and not India.

[@rachittewari2485]

@@AriaIsara Agree with you completely my comment wasn't defending the cartoon it was just stating that it's ok to look into a piece of information before forming opinions. You can disagree with that approach.

[@Abhi_parya]

Rick reaction was right, but rick has to watch how an indian would have react to the cartoon pic. Its not USA is the only country on the WEST from an video perspective. In that video most of it was about UK. Didn't even mention about USA. Rick has to see the full video before jumping on to the google search in the middle of the reaction, for a minute he didn't even bother and his reaction was like I won't agree to anything. Its like HOW DARE YOU SAY WEST(even though its not about Kanye) & THE NY TIMES, until korbin gave a perspective to the cartoon.

A very small percentage of people from the West (mostly from the UK) are actually discrediting or criticizing India's moon mission. Most have been very supportive. The way I see it, some news channels in the West are making their share of "juicy content" (teehee) for their audience by discrediting India, and some Indian news channels are making their own share of "juicy content" (teehee, again) for the Indian audience by reacting and replying to those Western critics.

The message of cartoon was simple: India had launched its mission to Mars and the cartoon meant that a cow country was aspiring to enter the elite group of people who went to Mars.

[@TheBinit18]

You know if you ask a random westerner of what comes to your mind when you think of India - “Their answers would be “Curry”, “Cows on streets”, “chaos” , “poverty” and “Dirty”. And when you show India as a impoverished and tired man walking with a cow and knocking on the “Elite Space Club”, you are being racist and stereotypical… not to say, the word “Elite” itself sounds classist and condescending towards other countries.

[@adityasshukla]

The cartoonist would obviously say otherwise because the cartoon blew up and NYT had to apologise. Also, Palki isn't quoting random people, they are journalists and politicians. Whatever they say is heard across the country and most would believe them. And two, there are not just a couple of dumbheads like these, there's an army of them spreading misinformation and subtle hatred. As Palki said, we'll have to tell our own story or else we'll be captured in someone else's version of our truth. Good day.

[@nandinisingh2485]

(Personally I also used to think that the cartoon was made to mock India but after reading from trustworthy sources I came to found that it was not really a mocking stunt but still many Indians got hurt that India is being represented that way .But I think it was shown that way to tell the world that now time has changed and it's not just these 2-3 countries who can achieve this feat. But still no one can deny that their way of representing it was wrong!! which is very cheap and shameful for any newspaper agency!!! ) The New York Times newspaper has apologised for a cartoon on India's Mars Mission following readers' complaints that it mocked India. The cartoon showed a farmer with a cow knocking at the door of a room marked Elite Space Club where two men sit reading a newspaper on India's feat. The cartoon was carried with an article titled India’s Budget Mission to Mars. Last month, India successfully put the Mangalyaan robotic probe into orbit around Mars. The total cost of the Indian mission was put at 4.5bn rupees ($74m; £45m), which makes it one of the cheapest interplanetary space missions ever. Only the US, Russia and Europe have previously sent missions to Mars, and India succeeded in its first attempt - an achievement that eluded even the Americans and the Soviets. Andrew Rosenthal, editorial page editor of the New York Times, wrote in a Facebook post that a "large number of readers" had complained about the cartoon. "The intent of the cartoonist, Heng Kim Song, was to highlight how space exploration is no longer the exclusive domain of rich, Western countries," Mr Rosenthal said. "Mr Heng, who is based in Singapore, uses images and text - often in a provocative way - to make observations about international affairs. We apologise to readers who were offended by the choice of images in this cartoon." Mr Rosenthal said Mr Heng "was in no way trying to impugn India, its government or its citizens".

You can disagree with a part of the video you’re reacting to and still watch the rest. It’s humanly possible. KORBIN, please just pause the video the next time he picks up his phone. It’s fine.

[@Sunny-voice-k9w]

I agree that the depiction of cartoon shouldn't be taken by face value. But representing Indian with COW is something stereotypic. Well nobody tries to validate the intention of the artist, but the message it depicts. One such example is Prakash Raj's tweet. Sarcasm has two sides. One more thing about generalizing the point west has. Check the official statements given by different countries, including Russia they just congratulated and didn't talk about how India is the first country to do the feat. Also look at Chinas statement they don't congratulate. And more thing, even with such a vast population and freedom of speech indian media Or people doesn't talk about West capabilities unless they point fingers at us. Then @rick why West keeps judging India at every point. Also did anyone from West comdemn these statements.. No.. You won't believe that some people in UK still thinks they did favor by ruling India.

Ricks be sensible, Britishers are well educated robbers. even snatcher or pick pocketer has self esteem. India's defaulters all are shalter in uk. Nirav Modi joined the long list of Indian fugitives to take refuge in the United Kingdom. He now joins an infamous bandwagon comprising, Lalit Modi, Vijay Mallya, music composer Nadeem among others. Indian agencies agree that the UK. has been a safe destination for frauds and criminals as the extradition process is extremely difficult. One of the key reasons cited by these persons while arguing against extraditions is that the jails in India cater to inhuman conditions. Indian tax payers money is looted fugitive are protected in uk.

So don't spread hate, it is a time to celebrate not to critize. But anyone who thinks otherwise, let me tell you, you are going to see a lot of those people with those cows to on all the habitable planets and future human colonies, because we have brains and manpower to achieve everything we want as a nation and we will not going to forget our culture as well because it plays an important role and it makes us who we are today but as Indians we want the world to come together and grow.

Sure if you see it that way for some people yes, a cow is of a great cultural significance. But I guess the problem isn't that they are representing the Indian man with a common cultural identity, but rather that there is no cultural association with the elitist which is making some mad.
