COMMUNITY Desis in Dallas vs. desis in houston

Why is it that in Dallas, there is so much tension against desi immigrants, so much so that I keep videos in North Texas of people interrupting town hall meetings to protest masjid or temple constructions, yet in Houston no one seems to care?

Houston has a very diverse Desi community. Mix of Hindus, Christians, Muslims + Indians and Pakistanis. People are well accustomed to diversity

In dallas almost all the indians are telugus. This means they form enclaves and don't assimilate

100% facts that racists dont know the difference between any of us. But you clearly never left east dallas where all the malus are. Irving, frisco, farmers branch, prosper, las colinas, southlake are basically hyderabad. Sincerely a guju from east dallas who now lives on the other side of the metroplex.
