    I don't know how are about the rest of the Indo-Europeans, but in England it's exactly working for a long time, as in Russia since Putin. Simply said, social lifts here are almost destroyed. If you were born in shit, then with a high probability, in shit you'll die.

    In such Britain still yet is quite alive...

    In scandinavia the society was particularly divided on three categories based on race.
    It is almost selfconcluding, that the oldest and darkest group is of pre-IE provenance,
    and two others represent two waves of IE migrations there. In Xth century the society
    (obviously mixed coincidently) still had 40% of slaves. It fits more or less to the propotion
    of non-IE people there. Similar adequate propotion of serfs under peronal subjugation was
    in Russia and in Rzeczpospolita. Probably coincidental, but remarkable. Who knows, maybe
    it is some remains of very ancient divisions.

    And btw, Indian version is rather a perversion.

    With the same logic I can show you discrimination based on race, religion, etc in the US and conclude that US is also a casteist society that that divides people based on racism. india has occupational stratification based on class, but US has it based on race.. which arguably is worse imo.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rígsţula

    "(...) Rígr was walking along the shore and came to a farm-hut owned by Ái (great-grandfather) and Edda (great-grandmother). They offered him shelter and poor, rough food for a meal. That night Rígr slept between the pair in their bed and then departed. Nine months later, Edda gave birth to a son who was svartan (dark). They named him Ţrćll (thrall, serf, or slave). Ţrćll grew up strong but ugly. He married a woman named Thír (slave girl or bondswoman), and they had twelve sons and nine daughters with names mostly suggesting ugliness and squatness. They became the race of serfs.

    Traveling further, Rígr came across a pleasant house where a farmer/craftsman, Afi (grandfather), lived with his wife Amma (grandmother). This couple gave him good food and also let him sleep between them. Nine months later, a son, Karl (churl or freeman), was born, who had red hair and a ruddy complexion. Karl married a woman named Snör or Snœr (daughter-in-law; sometimes anglicized as Snor), and they had twelve sons and ten daughters with names mostly suggesting a neat appearance or being of good quality. One of the names is smiđr (smith). These became the ancestors of free farmers, craftsmen and herdsmen.

    Traveling further, Rígr came to a mansion inhabited by Fađir (Father) and Móđir (Mother). They gave him excellent food served splendidly and, 9 months later, Móđir gave birth to a beautiful son named Jarl (earl or noble), whose hair was blond and who was bleikr (bright white in color). When Jarl grew up and began to handle weapons and to use hawks, hounds, and horses, Rígr reappeared, claimed him as his son, gave him his own name of Rígr, made him his heir, taught him runes, and advised him to seek lordship.

    Through warfare Jarl became lord of eighteen homesteads with much wealth besides. He also gained the hand of Erna (Brisk), daughter of Hersir (lord). Erna bore twelve sons to Ríg-Jarl but no daughters. All the sons were given high-sounding names, mostly meaning "son". They became the ancestors of the warrior nobility.

    The youngest son, named Konr, was the best of them. He alone learned rune-craft as well as other magic and was able to understand the speech of birds, to quench fire, and to heal minds. He also had the strength of eight normal men. His name was Konr the young (Konr ungr in Old Norse), the name and title to be understood as the origin of the Norse word konungr (king) (although this is a false etymology). Konr, like his father, also acquired the name or title of Rígr. (...)"

    @Peterski interesting, I thought that the racial origin of the castes only happened in India, Greece or Rome.

    The lower classes in the Vedic Indian were Australoids (along with the Pygmies the race with the lowest IQ of the planet, only 62), considered subhuman, spiritually impure and animalized by the conquerors Indo-Aryans.
