A British vlogger, travelling in India, recently shared a small video from a train, criticising "unfair wealth divide on this planet". The video by content creator Alex Wanders struck a chord with many on social media as he praised the kindness of the Indian people, saying it will "never be forgotten".
"I'll never get over the unfair wealth divide on this planet, I'm in India and because of where I was born I can stay in nice resorts, eat in fancy restaurants, drink on rooftop bars and fly anywhere I want whenever I want," he wrote one the video.
"Meanwhile local men here because of where they were born work 14 hours a day to earn $5 if they are lucky just so they can afford to feed their family who are waiting for him to come home."
