Why do some Indians lack dignity?
By dondada, history, 4 years ago, In English

If an Indian can cheat in a virtual interview, I don't know if they can ever stop cheating on Codeforces

that's not how universal generalization works. That's why you're still a newbie, learn some basic maths first

    I think you're dyslexic to the word "Some". How an unrated gets to judge a newbie lol ..

      First of all, he never said "some". Lemme explain my comment w.r.t to what he said:

      he laid down the premise: "If **AN* indian can cheat in a virtual interview"

      then he said the conclusion: "then Idk if "THEY" can ever stop cheating on CF"

      so what he did is found an example (an india), then generalized it on all indians(they).

      that's not how it works. that's why I said "That's not how universal generalization works"

      Universal generalization is kind of like you prove f(x) true for an arbitary x = c, then generalize on the domain, what he did was find a special example then generalize, using the word "THEY".

      Furthermore, I don't need to be rated to judge some simple common sense(to which I made analogy to maths).

The correct question is " Why do some people lack dignity? ".

See, I have come across two types of cheaters in my college life:
1) Who won't hesitate to cheat because they don't really care about the process and want good results by any possible means.

2) Who are desperate for something. These kind of people usually mess up when they had time to prepare and they have no choice but to cheat to get something done that they need desperately.

Because basic human needs like proper nutritious food, shelter, and healthcare are still a luxury for lots of people here. Some do it out of greed but a lot of them do it because they need it. There are lots of engineering colleges in India with an annual average package of less than 5k dollars. People generally ask why Indians are like this? but actually, the case would have been pretty much the same if any other country had similar conditions.
