#HathrasCase

The Anatomy Of An Indian Liberal in LaLa Land
#Tanishq

Class ~ Privileged

First language ~ English

Religious Denomination ~108 Surya Namaskars for a washboard stomach, decolonised yoga, not having any of that Brahmanical patriarchy, whatever it is.

Definitely nothing to do with that Hindutva thingy.

Motto ~ #BLM
Please note B stands for Black. Not Brown.

Personal Statement ~ To miss the woods for the trees.

Opinion ~ Bloody plebs don't understand that their sentiments don’t matter & their opinion is worthless if we believe you cannot afford Tanishq jewellery.

*Hindutva bigots ! What would you know about a beautiful product & the artistry of a advert to match*

*So you didn’t burn the city. You didn’t destroy the store - though our channel tried to make you do it*

*You didn’t behead the .. I don’t know ... someone*

*We could ‘feel’ your toxicity rip through social media. And that, mind you, is just, just bar- baric !!

*Go drink your Gaumutra*!

Lexicon ~ Intersectionality of Interfaith

*Our idea of India is to call it an interfaith marriage but with a little name change here & there & the kids brought up in the interfaith, erm...Faith*

*So we in turn wrote mushy articles & tweets on our wonderful, all embracing in-laws which were dutifully forwarded by ‘atheists’...*

*Who cares about your ugly experiences? We don’t want to know.*

*Give us pretty, pretty.... always*

#FranceBeheading

Class ~ Privileged

First language ~ English

Religious Denomination ~ Confused.

Mission Statement ~ We stand for the marginalised & the oppressed.

Personal Statement ~ My Daddy Matters.
Merit is discriminatory.

Opinion ~ Islam is in danger.
Those who don’t think so are Islamophobes.

Argument ~ Come on! Cartoons of the Prophet is UNacceptable ! He means more to them than their parents & their children.

*Ram is a myth*

Argument ~ This beheading has nothing to do with their Faith.

*But...every little pickpocket who turns out to be Hindu is because of Manusmriti, caste, RSS, Modi ...*

Argument ~Everyone has their own way of venting anger !

*IMO outraging on SM is the worst possible crime !*

Argument ~ They escaped all kinds of horror in their own countries but now this European plenty fullness & freedom all around is too much to handle.

*By the way, India is no place for Muslims*

*erm... where exactly is the right place ?*
*ssh*

*Hello ?!
Why no mushy stories or tweets on the subject ?

No unborn babies writing long winded articles on how such families are embracing, warm, harmonious, god fearing with erm... a sense of humour ?
No pretty pretty, why?*

*Think about it. Shubh Ratri 🙏🏼*

#Penguins

Class ~ Privileged

First language ~ English

Religious Denomination ~ Will tell you tomorrow

Personal Statement ~ I support anything, anyone connected to the Mothership.

Opinion ~Dukaan Hamaari Hai.
So all is good.

Death of Democracy ?
*Naah !*

Fascism ?

Rape of the constitution ?
*Lie back & enjoy it.*

Mission Statement ~ Chup.

The Anatomy of a Protest
#FarmersBill

Denomination ~ We are all Punjabis !
a yahun yahun*

Situation ~ Since Narendra Modi is going to be around for sometime ...
sigh*
Emergency Mission Plan ~ A
portfolio of participants & props to get the show going.

1. Daadis of all sizes.
2. Beardy, cuddly grandfathers who want to thoko.…
3. Vicious, young pregnant women baying for blood.
4. Scrawny, spectacled young men with only violence on their mind.
5. YoYa of coordinated gamcha fame.
6. Patekar of bespoke faded saree fame.

7. Teesta of sly, kohl lined eyes (yet to make an appearance - but bets are on)
8. Two bit actors & actresses who don’t know who, what, where, why but for a price will be there.
9. At least one foreign bakra President, PM or Opposition Leader who makes a few noises for

constituents at home.
10. Endless supply of Biryani...
11. Razais (please keep your thoughts noble ...)
&
12. Woke People, who don’t want to change the world but are happy to sing & dance for the return of the privileged & comfortable old one.

Do feel free to add to the list. Plebeian Sentiment ~ Might as well make money out of it.

Then settle down to watch the Theatre of the Absurd unfold with NDTV coverage (miss you Nidhi) & Sardesai’s impending meltdown. 🍿🍿🍿🍿🍿🍿🍿
