Another #AntiIndia #Hinduphobic development thanks to #Islamists, #WokeRadicals, and last but not the least @EqualityLabs

Here's @shambhav15 on these EL geniuses :
@EqualityLabs @shambhav15 That this farce was allowed to happen in #SiliconValley with thousands of Hindu Indian techies there speaks to their collective apathy to #Hinduphobia and #Islamism
Local Indian and Hindu associations should introspect and regroup to block further drama from these malicious parties.

#CAASupport
A sad day for San Francisco as this cements its image as the mecca of radical liberals removed from from the realities of the world. Also clear now that the city is in bed with #Islamists and #AntiIndia elements in the US

#SFO #RadicalLeft
Lastly, a failure for @CGISFO that it couldn't educate the SFO city council enough to prevent this farce!

@PankajSaxena84 's review of #Kantara seems to be as epic as the movie itself

While the movie as a solid foundation, Saxena built an awe-inspiring tower on it with deep, original insights articulated expertly.

🙏🏽 to PS ji and to the movie team
It brings tears to my eyes that I'm struggling to process the review because of how far removed my POV is from that of my ancestors

I feel the heavy burden of colonization followed by a thoughtless, misguided system of 'education'
The freedom that we achieved in 1947 seems superficial and we seem to have used this to continue the cultural erasure started by the colonizers but now on own own terms 😑

Sept 30 is #OrangeShirtDay in Canada. Many wear an orange shirt to work or school, to remember the 150k indigenous kids who were forcibly enrolled at English residential schools that separated them from their families and culture. Many were also abused. 😔
In British India, indigenous institutions continued to suffer and independence unfortunately didn't reverse the trend but arguably led to faster decline of culture and languages as English and a European POV dominated.
What the Canadian indigenous kids suffered was at a whole different level but Indians' should also recognize their own post-colonial trauma, much of it self-inflicted 😔

From your Brown Pundits reputation, @razibkhan , I expected lot more nuance but this is very disappointing.

You only made a passing reference to massive reverse discrimination against the UC. And you didn't mention the rapid social progress in India.
On top of denying how Brahmin privilege is systemically absent or has been reversed, you contributed to scapegoating of Brahmins who are a small minority that has been at the receiving end of populist politics in India for decades especially in the South which you focused on.
You focused too much on Rao and her personal circumstances and wealth. You only named Brahmin last names. From the article an unfamiliar reader would get the impression that endogamy and discrimination were exclusive to Brahmins. Isn't this patently untrue?

@Isabelwilkerson - in your @nypl interview from Aug 5 you spoke for several minutes about the Hindu caste system as one would expect given the book's title.

You said caste discrimination is sanctioned by religion. Isn't it more a corruption of Manu smriti?
@Isabelwilkerson @nypl When the interviewer asked about inspiration for social reform you made it sound like US has been Hindus' inspiration. But we had reformers before Europeans set foot in N America, eg Annamacharya in S India.
In the several minutes you spent on India, why didn't you think it was important to talk of drastic progress in just a few generations, and the reservations system that is affirmative action on steroids.

#Suheldev review

My first #AmishTripathi book. And first time reading a book in this genre.

But I found the writing to be mediocre. The writing had too many anachronistic references like handlebar moustache, cancer, people calling themselves Indians, etc. Image
Grammatically too sometimes what should've been one sentence is split into two. Maybe this is a style of writing but I find it odd.
The plot is a bit predictable. And there are many political points made clearly aimed at today's politics which makes the story seem less authentic.

Overall, I'm impressed enough to look out for more such books in the genre and from #AmishTripathi.

#Modi 's presence at #RamMandir bhoomi pooja should be used also as an opportunity to celebrate the nation's respect for the rule of law. The sorry episode of December 6 and subsequent riots should be condemned unequivocally.
#Islamists #Leftists and other #Hinduphobes are already sharpening their pencils to smear and vilify Hindus and India. These bigots should be defanged by the PM through a clear condemnation of the disputed structure's demolition.
After all as PM what's central to his role is law and order. And as a BJP leader, too, it's an opportunity to start moving BJP away from #Islamophobia which cannot be denied in the party.
