Imagine d fate of many a sponsors of #FarmersProtests !
#JustAsking
Yes many a raised eyebrows and many a questions will be posed.
The Government will need to articulate well the climb down at this time. But rest assured Government will have a refurbished image as of now.
#JustAsking
Many a doors will open up, many a windows will be closed. Fate of many politicians will be sealed, while many politicians will find hurdles and humps removed in their onward political journey. At the same time, it will ring alarm bells for many a politicians.

The stand off between @Twitter and the #Indian government is symptomatic of a shrinking space for dissent. In an early response they temporarily blocked a respected news outlet and several voices of peasants, indigenous peoples and other classes of protected characteristics. 1/14
@Twitter Now Twitter has blocked a number of accounts from viewing in India, including that of a sitting member of parliament, after committing not to block politicians, activists and media. Political dissent and independent media need, primarily, to engage with their home audiences. 2/14
@Twitter Twitter needs to offer a neutral, level playing field for all political actors, with the same set of norms across markets, rather than faciliate repression of democratic dissent. In the US they de-platform a sitting President, and in #India they are open to bullying? 3/14

Key takeaways from the #GretaToolKitLeaks and #ShaheenBagh #KathuaCase #FarmerProtests for Pro-India and Pro-Sanatan Samskriti adherents: (1/n)

1) Our lot severely lacks a bona fide PR and Communications Agency which can be leveraged.
2) Those against us clearly leverage professional PR and Communications agencies and have deals with news syndicates. Their reach is much broader than ours

2/n
3) They are very organized and very disciplined whereas we are highly disorganized and highly undisciplined. Each person is running their own "fight the wrong narrative" battle alone.

Harmanjit Singh said he was walking alongside a tractor that Navneet was driving when the latter was shot. The tractor overturned. Harmanjit added that the Delhi Police attempted to take custody of the body but the protesters stopped them. #TractorRally #FarmerProtests
Harmanjit and Navneet were part of the sit-in at the Ghazipur site. "We were proceeding peacefully," he said. "The police fired tear-gas shells at us, lathi charged us."

Questions no one wants to answer :

1. Being very much surplus in wheat and paddy production why should Punjab not shift to other cultivations ?
2. How long and to what extent can FCI keep buying the two items when stocks are overflowing in their own godowns.?
3. Should not Govt prescribe quota upto which only FCI will buy?
4. Is not this the time to change crop patterns in Punjab when subsoil water is going down mostly on acct of paddy cultivation ?
BTW some predictions say Punjab will be a desert in 15-20 yrs
5.Why can't we give ample opportunities to marginalized farmers of other states?
6.What business opportunists have in farmers protest?
7.If the law is so bad why so many farmers org. are in favor ?
8.Why few are hijacking while majority of farmers don't have issue with the Law?

Opening my heart out as a marketer-

Khalistan/Farm Bill Offline/ Online marketing campaign 2020

I feel utterly violated of my digital content rights for spreading malicious Anti-India viral propaganda.

How many more such disturbing marketing campaigns to come in India?
@narendramodi ban 'BIG 5' International marketing agencies in India for perpetually propagating Hinduphobia in India & world.

Please @narendramodi investigate& take legal action against Sonia Gandhi's @INCIndia& Pakistan for strategically planning the Khalistan/Farm bill offline
& online marketing campaign 2020 that was poorly executed & ended with a flop Bharat Bandh politically planned one day before Sonia's birthday today, 9th December like she does every year?

Since there's so much misinformation on the #FarmerProtests, aided and abetted by the idiotic 'Thank a farmer if you had dinner' argument, here's a list of proper pieces I've come across on the protests
1) The need for Punjab to diversify

indianexpress.com/article/opinio…
2) The ambiguous heroism of the fabled Indian farmer

The #FarmerProtests seem to have put the BJP govt on the back foot because here it's the farmer who they need to dehumanise and vilify. But unfortunately for them, there is no popular prejudice in the public consciousness against farmers, unlike say Islamophobia. 1/
We know most of the times it is Islamophobia that is used to dehumanise the opposition, whether it fits the story (CAA, NRC, "Love Jihad") or not (it was forcefully invoked even to distract from the failure to appropriately deal with a religion-agnostic pandemic a while ago). 2/
Even in case of the #FarmerProtests, Islamophobia would have been somehow invoked, if not for the fact that the Sikh identity was already attached to it. Otherwise, they'd have attributed the protest to "the Islamo-commie nexus" and effortlessly sold it to their supporters. 3/
