> Nobody I know in real life has any experiences of casteism

But there are people claiming discrimination based on caste. It’s the matter of an ongoing landmark lawsuit [1].

Personal experience is a bad filter because it’s shaped by the same factors we’re measuring. I haven’t experienced real racism because I’ve consistently been in environments removed from racists. I recognise, however, that other environments exist.
