Speeder's comment is actually based on fact. China had terminal ABM systems in the 1970's and now has Mid course and ASAT with KKV. And in Rocket technology America, Russia, and China are top as they are the only ones capable of independent manned space missions, >3000 KM cruise missiles, and etc......
Trying to claim otherwise would require more than just name calling.
I have no issues with accepting facts.
China may be ahead in some or many technologies. It may be due to several factors, including that India started the race much later or was faced with more external challenges or some others.
Now, the fact remains that as of now, China is not a leader in technology. It is a follower and is catching up. I appreciate that it is doing a reasonably good job of it. There are all kinds of opinions on it but I tend not to take a negative view in general.
My major issue is his trying to be racist and trying to undermine India's achievements and potential. I know he is not alone and there are several like him and I have nothing but contempt for his ilk.
India is not in any race with China or anyone else, only with itself to realize our potential. For a thousands of year old continuous civilization like ours that is finding its feet again, a late start doesn't matter that much. What matters is how we give every Indian the opportunity he deserves and whether as a nation we can achieve our potential.
The big 3 talk is cheap and BS. China was no technological power in the 1970s or even now. This talk of 3 decades lead is again BS. India had its moon mission how many years after yours? Could you have done it decades back?
Only people with deep inferiority complex act racist. He and his ilk have enough causes to have that complex and they have my contempt.
