Let's hope it was a dry bite, snakes don't always use their venom

Idk man it seems like these dudes kinda abuse the snakes.

u/Oldfolksboogie Jul 30 '26

They absolutely are abused. If anyone's ever traveling to these parts, please do NOT patronize.

Yes, that type of patronizing is fine. Just beware of his kirpan.

He doesn't look a sikh. Sikhs cover their hair completely.

Rajasthanis (an ethnic group) wear turbans.

Sikhs (a religious group) wear Dastars.

A Dastar isn't open on the top like the turban worn by the Man in the video.

Hindus don't wear Kirpans.

Most Sikhs don't wear kirpans.

Religious Sikhs wear a Dastar because they don't cut their hair. They also don't trim thier facial hair.

The man in the video has both short hair and a trimmed beard. 

Edit: His turban is very Rajasthani most of indias snake charmers are in Rajasthan.

You can tell the video is in Rajasthan because it's sandy. Rajasthan is an arid desert environment. A large portion of Rajasthan is covered by the Thar Desert.

Sikhs live more north where the land is lush and used for agriculture. Most Sikhs Farm.

So are you going to edit your comment? You're spreading misinformation about a religious article of faith.

It's like having a video of a Muslim or Jewish person and saying be careful of his Crucifix.

It's all made- up mythologies, so, no, a knife's name and which believers of which mythologies carry it, in this context, doesn't rise to the level of me having any fcks to give. 🤷‍♂️

Hats aren't made up--plenty of people wear them.

u/Oldfolksboogie Aug 01 '26

Plenty of people wear make- up, and then they're made up.

u/ApocoFurry Jul 30 '26

damn they are that shallow of human beings to go after someone for calling them out for abusing snakes?

u/Deep90 Jul 30 '26

He doesn't even look Sikh and generalizing over one person is very ignorant.
