Do Die. This is some "Don't Dead Open Inside"
Here's the picture version. Definitely a meme but it also shows the folly of the Brahmin caste and race-mixing.I've been thinking about the caste system recently. I don't really understand what kind of societal dynamic would lead to the creation and formalisation of such a thing.
Is it that such divisions were necessary in an economic sense - such that someone needed to clean feces and move dead bodies around, and there needed to be a steady supply of them generation after generation?
Or was it just a bizarre quasi-religious idea that slowly formed itself around ethnic lines over time - with little to no genuine utility?
Any insights would be appreciated.
