๐Ÿšจ IITians Crack Exams, Americans Crack the World. Why? India has the smartest minds โ€” yet the US builds Google, Facebook, Tesla, Airbnb. Even with IITs, India isn't producing global giants at that scale. Why? Hereโ€™s the blunt truth ๐Ÿ‘‡ ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ณ IITians = Exam Machines They crush JEE. They top ranks. But the system trains them to obey, not build. Risk? No. Originality? Rare. Startup mindset? Only a few dare. ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ US = Ecosystem That Creates Giants A Stanford dropout gets VC money. Failure? Celebrated. Weird ideas? Funded. First customers? Wealthy Americans. > Talent + Capital + Risk Culture = Global Company ๐Ÿ’ก In India? Try building a startup at 22 = โ€œBeta job kab karega?โ€ Fail once = โ€œShaadi kaise hogi?โ€ Investors = โ€œRevenue dikhao pehle.โ€ > Our smartest minds are optimizing for safety, not changing the world. ๐Ÿ”ฅ The Truth? IITians arenโ€™t less smart. Theyโ€™re stuck in a system that fears failure and kills bold ideas. Until India celebrates creators over survivors, weโ€™ll keep exporting brains โ€” and importing innovation.
