Probably the stray dogs. I’m a cat lady and I used to teach in a ghetto area with a lot of stray cats and my students just couldn’t wrap their heads around why I loved cats- they saw them as pests like raccoons. I imagine with stray dogs that view is just more extreme because dogs can actually hurt you while a cat would just run away from you and hide.
I hear wild dogs roam India and attack people and kids etc. They’re probably dirty and flee ridden too. Different environment different culture doesn’t necessarily mean it’s brainwashing. Over there cows are sacred so in their defense I could say Americans are brainwashed into thinking cows are food.
Looks like you've not seen dogs that are not pets. Not approaching an unfamiliar dog is a good parental guidance. This isn't brainwashing, but teaching. Kids are innocent and should be taught boundaries. It doesn't matter how harmless or how tiny your pet is! A dog is a dog, trained or untrained. Their carnivorous instincts toward strangers are always unpredictable!
Different culture and environment, India is heavily congested in terms of density so there are a lot of wild and stray dogs always running around in cities, often times actually having fatal diseases they carry, so I really wouldn’t call it brainwashing. Indian kids who grew up in the US obviously grew up in different environments from their parents so they probably don’t have that same mentality.
Indian parents henpeck their kids about everything in my experience. As a general rule they have a lot of weird and strict rules regarding what defines "cleanliness" so many that explains the dog thing. Have you ever noticed Indian families that leave shoes outside by the front door?
I think my favorite Indian stereotype that is 100% true but also harmless is that they take a ridiculously long time to answer their door. Don't believe me? Try it. Go ring one of your Indian neighbor's doorbell. I guarantee you it will take at least a full minute for them to answer, or on average about 3-4x as long as everyone else.

I was hooked after my first ribeye. I’ve spent years chasing that first high.

Sounds like this American has been propagandized into thinking government is a solution.
It isn't.
It never was.
People run governments. And even still, in this country we used to have this principle of self-reliance and trust in God.
People who value cleanliness stay clean.

Are you thinking about what it's like in India?
You gotta view from their perspective as immigrants, not yours. The inability of so many to do this is why we are where we're at
Aren't rag heads dog eaters.
