You do not understand how the processing work - the processing dates don’t move in tandem with the calendar days. For instance , by end of 2024 , you’ll find that the priority date has only moved 2 months . So the actual number is somewhere around 100 years at the current gc numbers


Another immigrant chiming in - I love love love this country … my wife and I went from lower middle class in india to being in the 98th percentile of household income here .. and that has literally extended the lives of our loved ones back home .. my wife’s father was diagnosed with cardio vascular issues sometime ago but he decided to ignore them because he simply couldn’t afford the treatment. So when my wife and I started working in the USA , we made enough to get him treated for his issues at some of the best hospitals in India.

Unsurprisingly , my wife’s love for USA knows no bounds - she’s one of the most patriotic immigrants you’ll ever meet


You can’t understand why a lot of American homes are equipped with home wide underfloor heating systems cos most homes are not equipped that way - where is this idea even coming from ?

Source : lived in america for a decade and make decent money and my million dollar home has absolutely big standard heating and cooling. Underfloor heating is a luxury and I don’t think I’ve ever seen it in a home in all my time here.


I near fell off my chair laughing at the complete confidence with which he called the south secular .. lol ..


Also the riots happened more than two decades ago and most people don’t give a shit - you know how I know this - modi was a chief minister at the time of the riots and then went on to be the prime minister and is in his third term as prime minister .. you think people who didn’t give a shit back then are suddenly gonna rise up against a politician who is as popular as modi ..


Lmao .. secular southern India - that’s a generalization that covers a population similar to all of America - the south is anti modi but for reasons completely unrelated to secularism .. also secession is such a fringe idea that it would make the secession movements in the USA look mainstream ..

source : me an Indian citizen who grew up in one of the southern states.
