Episode notes
Airport Wheelchair Anecdote
- Alex describes seeing many able-bodied Indian men using wheelchairs at airports and frames it as exploitation of systems.
- Jordan and Dan push back, noting such anecdotes are unreliable and dehumanizing.
Anti-Indian Rhetoric As Scapegoating
- Alex pivots into explicit anti-Indian rhetoric using anecdote-like airport and restaurant examples to stoke fear and resentment.
- Dan and Jordan note this is out-of-brand and functions to scapegoat immigrants as economic and cultural threats.
