THREAD: Let's talk about the "#PerfectVictim", a phenomenon in which 'allies' believe that the moral compass for judging behaviour lies with them - even when they're not the ones being affected by the issue. (1/9)

Illustration: @ShreyaTingal

First, let's talk about who the ideal "perfect victim" is and what "good behaviour" entails. (2/9)

Why is this concept problematic, and why is it damaging to a cause? (3/9)

आता लवकरच अमेरिकेचे अधिकृत राष्ट्राध्यक्ष घोषित होतील..मी काल ट्रंप आणि बिडेन यांच्यामधील प्राथमिक फरक सांगितला होता..त्या धाग्याची लिंक खाली आहेच! आज आपण त्या दोघांचा भारताप्रती नक्की काय दृष्टिकोन आहे याबद्दल जाणुन घेऊया..
#म #मराठी #रिम #USAElections2020 #Trump2020 #Biden2020

१)अमेरिकेतील भारतीय कायम डेमोक्रॅटिक पक्षाला समर्थन देतात ज्याचे उमेदवार सध्या #Biden आहेत.पण ह्यावेळीस #corona पार्श्र्वभूमीवर #trump यांनी चीनला ज्याप्रकारे धारेवर धरले..त्यात कोरोनाला सरळ सरळ चीनी वायरस संबोधणे अथवा ट्रेड वाॅर इ. यामुळे भारतीय ट्रंपच्या बाजुने झुकलेले असावेत

दुसरीकडे बिडेन पाकिस्तान च्या बाजुने कृती करत असल्याचे दिसुन आले ज्यामध्ये त्यांनी पाकिस्तानला ६०० मिलीयन$ ची मदत घोषित केली जी मदत ट्रंपनी आर्ध्यावरच आणलीय.पाकिस्तानच्या मते त्यांना ते पैसे दहशतवाद व आतंकवाद विरोधात वापरायचेत पण वस्तुस्थिती आपणा सर्वांनाच माहीती आहे🙏🙏

Today lawyer @pbhushan1 filed a reply to the contempt petition against him from the Supreme Court. Some highlights:

"Tweet regarding the CJI riding a motorcycle
(6 June) was made primarily to underline my anguish at the non physical functioning of the SC for the last more than 3 months, as a result of which fundamental rights of citizens, such as those in detention, those destitute & poor..."

"... and others facing serious and urgent grievances were not being addressed or taken up for redressal...The fact that he was on a motorcycle costing 50 lakhs owned by
a BJP leader had been established by documentary evidence published on social media..."

It's clear that #AnuragThakur, #PraveshVarma and #KapilMishra gave provoking statements, Govt should take action on them and #TusharMehta you are Solicitor General of India,not private lawyer of BJP. Stop defending people who are not related to Central Govt.

Let's think, wasn't there any riots before their statements? Wasn't buses were burn in the name of saving dEmOcRaCy? Wasn't AAP MLA's (especially #AmanatullahKhan) also gave provoking speeches? (Which is the root of all this nonsense) Wasn't he shared stage with #SharjeelImam?

Wasn't Delhi Dy CM #ManishSisodia spread fake news by sharing old video of Delhi police saying Police lit up the buses? Wasn't #NDTV journos gave limelight to so called 'Sheros of #Jamia' who doesn't believe in Secularism and Judiciary of this country & rushed to defend Sharjeel?

@rajinikanth Sir, you have said students should not be misled &should consult elders/learned people about #CAA_NRC #NPR .Can you kindly answer a few questions so that we are all enlightened?1.What will happen to those who are unable to produce docs needed to prove citizenship?1/n

2.If a Hindu from say, Tamil Nadu or Karnataka does not have documents what happens to him or her and likewise if a Muslim from TN does not have documents what happens to them?
3. Do you support the concept of putting people in detention camps ? 2/n

4. Do you support disenfranchisement of/removal of all Govt.benefits to people if they don't have citizenship documents irrespective of religion? Specifically should a Hindu who has no documents also be put in detention camp or be disenfranchised?

Aamir Khan feels unsafe to live in India, Farhan Akhtar protests #CAA_NRC without knowing the facts & Deepika Padukone shows up at JNU to support Aishe Ghosh. It can’t be a coincidence and it’s not. They are all managed by a Mumbai based company - Spice PR 👇#DeepikaPRBackfires

This is how the PR machinery works. They have creatives, content, strategy all figured out much before the actual event. Right after Deepika left from JNU, the following creatives started floating on SM platforms like Twitter, FB, Instagram, Snapchat, etc. #DeepikaPRBackfires

Soon within 24 hours #ISupportDeepika was trending at No. 1 in India with 236K tweets and No. 3 in Worldwide trends with 234k tweets. But how did they get so many tweets in 24 hours when #BoycottChhaapaak was trending at No. 2 with just 177K Tweets? Weird no? #DeepikaPRBackfires

THREAD

I encountered some genuine concerns about #CAA_NRC_NPR in many people's minds.

In a way misinformation spreads fast and in very lethal way, but I am certain that Government could not clarify the whole exercise in crystal clear manner, with unanimity and solidarity.

As I am reading, researching, watching from quite a while now, Explaining the actual scenario verbally or personally to a mass of people is not possible to me at this point, so taking this SM route to spread awareness.

I will link some govt sources here to avoid over explaining

Lets have step by step knowledge about these things. Lets start with #NPR as it is smaller and very straightforward thing!

Pure misinformation led #NPR getting connected with #CAA_NRC. It should be looked as a joint exercise with Census.

Do you know there is a tribe in Pakistan that lives in the mountains of Hindu-Kush and practise an ancient form of Hinduism called "Kalash"

The Kalash kafirs (kafiristan) are facing an existential crisis and are being forced to convert to Islam
@vivekagnihotri @Aabhas24
1/6

These people living in 3 remote mountainous valleys in Pakistan, are the last remnants of the ‘Kafirs’ of the Hindu Kush

In 1896 they are more than 100,000

Today they are around 4,000, which indicates a drastic decline in the population of those Kalasha people #ISupportCAA
2/6

Hindus in Afghanistan converted to Buddhist during the time of Ashoka & Kanishka

During Arabic invasion, these Buddhists could not save themselves even for 25yrs

Buddhists who changed religion due to fear of sword called these Kalash people Kafir & their territory as Kafiristan

For more than a month the #CAA_NRCProtests have not only sustained, the continue to grow. From Assam and the North East, they have now spread across the country. And we have seen the government, not only obfuscate, but also lie +

First the government claimed CAA-NPR-NRC is one chronology.
Then they said there is no chronology.

Earlier they said religious persecution. Now they say persecuted minorities.

Said this will help minorities, but have Dec 31,2014 as cut off +

As protests started to grow, in BJP rules states witnesses violence and brutal state repression.

In Jamia the police attacked by entering the campus and the library.
In JNU, the VC asked the police to stand outside the gates until an armed mob had finished the assault +

One thing is common in all cases that the Convenor JAC Mohammed Mustaq Mallik has been shown accused in all the cases and along with him others has been mentioned. All the FIR's are a copy/paste of one other. The word others will be never ending story. /2

#MillionMarchHyderabad was first of its kind since independence, There was no traffic jam, No untoward incident, No anti religious slogans, No stone pelting and moreover the organizers cleaned the entire roads upto late night after the Million March. /3

देश भर में कंपकपाती ठण्ड पर
विभिन्न दलों की राय इस प्रकार हो सकती हैं।

भाजपा :-
ये कंपकपाती ठण्ड सबका साथ, सबका विश्वास का अद्भुत उदाहरण हैं। ये ठण्ड बिना किसी जाति, धर्म के भेदभाव किए बिना सभी पर समान रूप से पड़ रही हैं।

हम इस सद्भावनापूर्ण ठण्ड का स्वागत करते हैं।

कॉंग्रेस :-
ऐसा नही हैं कि, ये ठण्ड हमारी सरकार में नही पड़ती थी, पड़ती थी किन्तु ऐसी भेदभावपूर्ण, विद्वेषपूर्ण ठण्ड आज से पहले कभी नही पड़ी।

हम पूछना चाहते हैं इस सरकार से अल्पसंख्यक इलाकों में ही ज्यादा ठण्ड क्यों पड़ रही हैं?

हम संसद में कंपकपाती ठण्ड पर बहस चाहते हैं

केजरीवाल :-
हम पूछना चाहते हैं, मोदी जी से
आखिर दिल्ली चुनाव के ऐनवक्त पहले ही इतनी ठण्ड क्यों पड़ रही हैं ?

5 साल इतनी ठण्ड क्यों नही पड़ी ?

मोदी सरकार अधिक ठण्ड पड़वाकर वोटरों को डराना चाह रही हैं। हम विधानसभा का विशेष सत्र बुलवाकर इस षड्यंत्र का खुलासा करेंगे।

As protests against the #CAA_NRC continue in India, some are taking cues from #HongKong and elsewhere to adapt those tactics to Indian conditions.

@Chandini2594 and I report for @ReutersIndia.

reut.rs/2ZO2Xbz

In recent days, Hyderabad has seen a rash of flash protests, organised by small groups of people via WhatsApp.

The location of the protests, which change daily, are posted an hour or two in advance, with the exact spots shared just minutes ahead of time.

“The objective is to get 30 minutes at one spot. Some people support us, others come and argue with us,” Faheem, an organiser in Hyderabad told us.

A brief analysis of @SadhguruJV's video on #CAA_NRC
In the beginning, he says "I even wondered have I missed something really? Bcz I havent read the Act fully, I only know it from newspapers & what's generally out there."
#IndiaSupportsCAA #IndiaDoesNotSupportCAA

He then states some facts: He says that after the partition of India "23% (of minorities) stayed back in West Pakistan and arnd 30% in East Pakistan (Bangladesh). Thats what people say...I am no expert but it can't be totally wrong." It is totally wrong (indiatoday.in/india/story/pa…)

Next up he says: In these countries there is discrimination against minority by law. He gives an example of how Hindus are not allowed to get married in Pakistan by following their own religion. Pakistan passed a law in 2017 to enable this. Read: bbc.com/news/world-asi…

7 July 1947: Gandhiji calls for all Hindus and Sikhs in Pakistan to be allowed to come to India whenever they wish, if they feel persecuted in Pakistan

9 Nov 1947: Congress Working Committee adopts a resolution for the same, stating specifically that India will accept "all non-Muslims" from Pakistan at any time.

Nehruji and Rajendra Prasad Prasad make speeches about this multiple times.

2 April 1950: Nehru signs an agreement with Pakistan's Liaquat Ali Khan: Refugees allowed to return to sell their property, abducted women and looted property to be returned, forced conversions to be reversed, minorities granted state protection.
