A thread to collect racist constructs designed by Hindu hating colonial regimes and perpetuated by modern day (mem)sahibs and their deracinatated, self loathing chamchas.
1. South Asia: An artificial term specifically constructed to erase the social, cultural and political history of Sanatan Civilization. Erasure of history is the first step to delegitimize and then ultimately perpetrate genocide on any indigenous living tradition.
2. Scientific Temper: A term designed to delegitimize traditional knowledge systems, invalidate "native" ontology as well as label an entire people as ignorant and backward.
3. Brahminism: A term designed to invalidate the scriptural basis of living Hinduism by imagining intersectional conflicts out of thin air and applying them selectively on Hindu literature.
4. Constitutional Morality: A term designed to create an elitist veto against either spontaneous or parliamentary expression of public sentiment. Also used to apply the same law unevenly across different interest groups.
5. Global Citizen: A term designed to mean different things to different ppl. For the white man it means the right to interfere, impose upon & exploit other countries. For the rest of means the right to sacrifice own culture & ape (but not participate in) the Western monoculture.
6. Indology & 7. Sanskrit Studies: Both designed to delegitimize traditional scholarship, understanding and insights and perpetuate the narrative of "pristine Aryan texts" corrupted by native barbarians.
8. Resist: A term droned on incessantly by useful idiots instigated by the regime change mafia which aims to block any kind of development in countries outside the Western sphere of influence.
9. Secularism: A term originating in Christian theological disputes which is now used to categorize Hindus as lesser citizens of the Republic of India.
10. Minority: A blanket term which is selectively used to provide excuses for atrocities and injustice against Hindus. A Hindu is either an oppressive majority or an oppressor against the majority, and hence undeserving of minority rights and deserving to undergo genocide.
11. Majoritarianism: Any kind of expression of Hindu political will, even if it is done through constitutional or democratic channels. Often preceded by the word "brute" to create an illusion of illegitimacy where there is none.
12. Populist: A term designed to delegitimize anything that goes against globalist interests and for public benefit. Used to negatively portray popular leaders in international media.
13. Fringe: A term used to delegitimize genuine, mainstream Hindu demands for equality.
14. Polarising & 15. Controversial: Terms used to describe strong popular leaders to delegitimize them in global media publications.

this is a very good thread. Challenge however is whether a true perspective shift can occur by engaging with the western academic framework, or by rejecting it completely roots up and building a true alternative model. 2nd option is a nuclear solution.
There is of course a political dimension to this. Mere studying of a knowledge system is futile unless one is able to apply it in his/her sphere of influence and make tangible change. And by change I dont mean charity or self help groups. I mean application + subversion of power
The problem in the Indian/Hindutva political scene is that it is too obsessed with "normalizing" of itself - and in that process it often becomes a validation seeker, especially and perversely when it gets even a modicum of power.
Why do we do the things that we do? What compels us- ambition? hunger? obsession? nature? A combination of all of the above? In order to really understand Sarri's appointment we need to go back a decade, in the dark days when Secco, Blanc & Gigli were perched at Vinovo #Sarri
Those were dark times- only thrice in her history had the Old Lady faced a crisis like what loomed ahead back then. The supporters were disillusioned, the management was in complete disarray & the squad was one of the weakest, most overpaid ever. And yet, here we are today #Sarri
So what changed? The obvious answer is the arrival of Andrea Agnelli, but, really, what changed? Look back again at the European soccer scene, and look at it now. Do you see it? #Sarri
