What happened in Bangalore is criminal.
Both the nasty Facebook post which was absolutely intended to rile up & hurt religious sentiments & the ensuing violence.
Law and order is supreme and cannot be compromised with in a modern civilization. 1/n #BangaloreViolence
But remember the Bulandshahr violence in December 2018? Bunch of gaurakshaks & hindutva nutjobs put a police station on fire.
A policeman was killed. All seven accused are out on bail.
When rioters get this kind of encouragement, what can be expected in the future? 2/n
Remember the violence during Padmavat release?
Point is simple.
If the entire Hindu community was not responsible for the actions of nutjobs, the same applies for Muslims.
Let's not have violence or hate speech or othering.
That's BJP/RSS agenda, not the ordinary Indian's natural inclination.
We ARE better than this.

Yesterday I was disgusted to find a woke dalit handle go #BrahminicalPatriarchy over that a$$hole MP cop beating his wife and rightfully being hit back.
It's because it does and is way effing more retarded than domestic violence.
Ramu, Sandeep, Ravi and Luv Kush raping the dalit girl from Hathras and paralysing her and inflicting unspeakable wounds on her is #BrahminicalPatriarchy
A girl goes to gather fodder for her herd of animals and she is raped to death.
Yes, she died this morning.
It's not effing casual. It's dark, psychotic, disgusting, as bad if not worse than racism. So kindly don't use that term for every crime against woman.
Demonetization broke the backbone of small and medium businesses, of farmers, of daily wage earners.
Yet most of them went ahead and voted for Modi in 2019
For once let us forget lynching of minorities, murder of activists and purchase of MLAs.
But demonetization hurt them at a personal level.
Yet they voted for Modi.
During dark days I used to think that Indians voted Modi "to show Muslims their place".
I don't think that was ever the reason.
The reason is Godi media and it's propaganda.
Kindly go to your digital tv app
Check the tariff for propaganda television.
Republic is free!
AajTak is a few paise
When propaganda is packaged as news cum entertainment, people will consume it.
India has 545 elected representatives in the Lok Sabha.
I think it would be interesting to see what they have been saying for the last 15 months since elections last May.
To that effect I will be dedicating one tweet to each MP of India's Lower House in the ensuing thread. 1/n
“BSNL has a system filled with traitors. In the coming days we will be removing all 88,000 employees."

"The announcement of period leaves for women is a commendable move and I believe more organisations must follow suit."
