Ramanujan is based and I'm tired of pretending he isn't.
>>16857007He's the only scientist who could say "It came to me in a dream" and everyone would just accept it
If we ignore the one-third of his work that was clearly copied from the West despite his claims that he had no access to their books, and if we ignore the second one-third of his work that is full of blatant contradictions and logical absurdities revealing that he wasn't bright enough to understand the rules of mathematics, and if we take only the tiny fraction of the one-third that remains where the work actually (by luck) contributes something original and useful, then yes, he was pretty based.Am I allowed to notice that the Western professors who promoted him did so purely because of the novelty of his being non-White, and ignored far more compelling geniuses in their own countries because they didn't give the slightest care about actual academic potential?
>>16857007>>16857117guys i was having a mental exercise thinking about my favourite modern national from every country. When I got to India, I didn't know who to decide on. Do you think Chandrasekar is a respectable Indian?
The problem is that Indians have spammed his reputation into the same state as their food.
>>16857117source?
>>16857007Harish-Chandra completely and utterly mogs Ramanujan.
>>16857253Bose perhaps idk lol
>>16857315>Sir!!!!
>>16857117None of this is true, btw.
>>16857117Why lie? It'll be hard to find anyone who hates poos more than I do on this board, and I acknowledge Ramanujan as legitimate. The point of racism isn't to carte blanche judge every individual of the group. It's to recognize problems within the group, many (most) of whom display such problems. If you wanted to shit on Ramanujan, why not speak some facts such as how he died of dysentery due to being a designated street shitter? Or how he was a malnourished Hindu fanatic who refused to eat a Western diet, making him depressed enough to where he tried committing suicide (in Indian fashion; I'll let you guess what his attempt was). Just a bizarre smear tactic. You're unironically dumber than most Indians I've met..
>>16857253>>16857315How about Raman? Really can't even think of anyone else kek
>>16857338>he died of dysentery due to being a designated street shitterNot based.>refused to eat a Western dietBased.> he tried committing suicide (in Indian fashion)Maybe based? Did he try to set himself on fire?
>>16857338>(in Indian fashion; I'll let you guess what his attempt wastrains?
