I’m from India, I’d describe it as ‘shit’ ... authoritarian government, abysmal infrastructure, and overcrowded trains?

When someone from an imperialist country calls your country shit, they're not talking about your government or infrastructure, otherwise they'd have said government not country.

Why can't they run more, longer, trains? Japan's trains used to be insane, now they're merely packed tight enough in the morning you can get an extra 15 minute nap while standing up.
