While Brahmahatya (killing a Brahmin) was considered a great sin, Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj was the first sovereign king who refused to place Brahmins—or anyone—above the laws of Swarajya. A thread🧵
In a 18 January 1675 letter, addressed to a corrupt Brahmin clerk, Shivaji Maharaj says:"ऎशा चाकरास ठीकेठाक केले पाहिजेत. ब्राह्मण म्हणून कोण मुलाहिजा करू पाहतो?..याउपरी बोभाटा आलिया तुमचा मुलाहिजा करणार नाही. गनिमाचे चाकर गनीम जालेस, ऎसे जाणून बरा नतिजा तुम्हास पावेल. ताकीद असे.
"These servants must be properly dealt with. Why should anyone show leniency just because they are Brahmins?.. If there is any further uproar, no leniency will be shown. The enemy’s servants have become the enemy themselves—know this well, and you will see the consequences.
I have not watched Chhava yet, but cinema is not history, and certain facts about who betrayed Sambhaji Maharaj and what led to his capture need to be clarified. François Martin, the most important contemporary French officer, says that Sambhaji’s Brahmin chiefs betrayed him
and deliberately led him into an ambush. François Martin was the first Governor-General of Puducherry and arrived in India in 1668. Martin meticulously documented his experiences in India. He was a regular visitor of Indian chieftains, princes, and kings and presented gifts
from time to time. His memoirs are published in three volumes. Let’s see what he says about Sambhaji’s capture. In French sources, Sambhaji is referred to as Sommagy, and Shivaji is referred to as Sivagy. His diary entry from March 1689, under the title "Anxieties caused in the
When people ask "US has ChatGPT, China has DeepSeek, what does India have?" they tend to forget that India has hundreds of startups founded by Brahmin-Savarnas that are changing the world. One of the revolutionary technologies invented by Brahmins is called Brahmin Bhoj. Read 🧵
The idea of Brahmin Bhoj is one step ahead of Einstein's theory of relativity. The concept is simple: you feed Brahmins from the comfort of your home, and your loved ones in heaven get satisfied. Cost of feeding a Brahmin varies based on which e-commerce platform you use.
Imagine if each of us starts feeding freeloading Brahmins, how much revenue these platforms will generate? There are literally dozens of such e-commerce websites. We can generate billions in revenue. We can even launch this service in Africa, US, Europe and fool white people.
Brahmins-Savarnas talk as if, without reservation, they would have conquered the world and invented every piece of technology we use today. But in reality, what exactly do Brahmin-Savarnas achieve when placed in positions of power or knowledge production? A 🧵
Take Abhay Singh Grewal, for example. This guy did Aerospace Engineering from IIT Bombay, but what is he doing now? A ganjedi, nashedi with absolutely lunatic takes on society, family, and politics. Contributions to society? Zero. Null. Zilch.
V Kamakoti, director of IIT Madras, claimed that cow urine has "anti-bacterial" and "anti-fungal" properties and can even cure IBS. This man has a PhD in Computer Science but spends his time promoting pseudoscientific nonsense. Taxpayer-funded education down the drain.
On the Fatima Sheikh Controversy: Dilip Mandal is a pathetic liar & a dangerous man spreading misinformation about established historical facts. Mandal made a series of outrageous claims, including: 1. Fatima Sheikh never existed; she is not a historical figure or a real person
2.He created her name out of nothing—essentially from thin air. 3. A fictional sketch was made because no old photographs existed. 4. No biographer of Mahatma Phule or Savitribai has mentioned Fatima Sheikh.
Each of these four statements is an utter lie, & I will prove it here:
In a letter written by Savitribai Phule to Jyotirao Phule on October 10, 1856, Savitribai says: "Fatima must be shouldering the hardships in my absence, but she is not a person who would complain."
Large piles of garbage lying everywhere, the terrible condition of public toilets, and open defection are some of the hallmarks of Indian cities and semi-urban towns. Indians have a terrible attitude toward public hygiene 1/
& the reason is the way the caste system influences people's behaviour. Research by Michael Geruso & Dean Spears shows that Muslims have a lower infant mortality rate compared to Hindus as the latter have a low rate of latrine use due to differences in "religious beliefs". 2/
The Hindu population is 25% more likely to defecate in the open than the Muslim population. And why is that? It is because for Hindus, cleaning after themselves is out of the question due to their weird fixation with the idea of "purity". 3/
