It has #indianLanguages in gana bajana, music and arts, poetry and literature, the stereotypical areas they've been relegated to. But when it comes to engineering or medicine or management, there is no mention of it. So #EnglishApartheid is preserved in high-paying professions.
S N Bose, the outstanding physicist, was a passionate advocate of mother tongue education. He studied in Bengali but was fluent in 6 languages. His international experience made him realize that Science education would only flourish in mother tongue
Many "modern" medicine are also extracts of herbs. But the pharma industry relies on dismissing the original because it can't be patented and yields much less profit.
And they'll attack scientific studies which don't fit their prejudice and pocketbook.
Here is an example of @theliverdr misleads and misreads even their own research in even simple things like whether drinking more water is helpful for health.
With his initial list of "debunking" why drinking water doesn't help, he cites the following article:
I will post explanations and queries from the paper. It uses a unique cryptographic approach to decipher the IVC script. More technical people need to do history. @yajnadevam
It makes the case that the script maps to a language, and uses regex to map it to Sanskrit.
@yajnadevam First question:
"The seal Dmd-1 single jar sign matches ana and eliminates other alternatives like ja and la."
Over 50% of White Liberal Women have a Mental Health issue.
This thread is not to mock them, mental health issues are serious and real. But here are some insights into why "progressives" may disproportionately suffer from mental health issues. 🧵
Evie has a somewhat conservative take on this: "Progressivism is an ideology that supposedly demands quality for all, and one that keeps score to an exhausting degree.... that isn't just unrealistic, it's unsustainable."
In a dharmic gaze, equality is not only unrealistic, it is unnatural. So an ideological obsession for equality is a constant fight against nature.
From an Indic point of view, anything that takes us away from the Real, will lead to mental issues.
U.S. has world’s highest rate of children living in single-parent households.
If this the society to emulate?
“Older adults in the U.S. are more likely than those around the world to age alone: More than a quarter of Americans ages 60 and older live alone (27%), compared with a global average of 16%.”
Research shows that children raised in single parent households show impaired cognitive development and also a higher incidence of mental health issues.
So we build a less able next generation… is this a desired societal outcome?
Congress otoh starts its agenda on Day 1. It is very clear about its constituencies and its supporters and always takes care of them first.
The BJP is keen to appease the "opposite camp" instead and scared to do anything that might upset them. It doesn't mind riding roughshod over its supporters. They can even be killed, as in WB, and it won't act. Because someone could perceive it as "favoritism." It's a mental liability.
There are no "irreversible changes." Congress will change things the day that come back to power. Meanwhile BJP lost 10 years and an entire generation fed on toxic textbooks. They could have reinstated MM Joshi's books in a day. Just cowardice.
