What worries me is the way all these college kids are getting pulled into politics that are often way beyond their comprehension. They are wasting their precious time, frittering away their parents' and the nation's precious resources to do stupid things. Where is adult guidance?
The girl, Disha Ravi, is from Mount Carmel college-one of Bengaluru's better colleges. If students don't need to study even in these colleges, what is actually happening with our kids? What will they do when they graduate? And what are her parents doing, letting her ruin herself?
When we were students, we were kept on track by our parents. That was adult guidance. Sure one could play with pet causes a bit during holidays-nature of idealistic youth, I guess. But doing such things during school days would have got my generation skinned alive by our parents!
I don't know if there is much government can do. Parents need to step up to their responsibilities, keep their kids on track. Politics ruins middle class kids, while the rich and powerful, who don't need to do anything, will simply rise on their [metaphorical or real] corpses.

1) Western outrage liberal culture and the jihadi culture have great similarities. Lower born people are not completely removed from higher prospects. These celebrity statuses are widely advertised, and the few that make them are held up as examples and role models to emulate.
2) What no one tells the foot soldiers is that the chances of rising to those positions are very remote. There is only one Greta Thunberg. There are hundreds of ruined and destroyed foot soldiers who are never heard of again. Left, like terrorists, doesn't publish casualty lists!
3) To dream is normal. Everyone is the hero of his own dream story. But when dreams intersect with reality, there is often a rude awakening. Parents/teachers should keep kids grounded in reality. Having captured teaching positions, left encourages [self] destructive behaviour.

1) A generation of students were ruined by communist propaganda in the 1960s and 1970s. They went on to become naxals, and communist ideologues. Most of their lives were ruined, and with little support system in place, most of their families were also ruined completely.
2) Now, a few naxals/ideologues did manage to go abroad, secure nice, cushy positions for themselves, and become anti-India/anti-Hindu bigots from their overseas sinecures. But these were the exception, not the norm. Most naxals faced police ruthlessness and were ruined.
3) Is this a career to recommend to kids? That they can be the lucky 1 in a thousand who will catch the eye of some politically powerful figure in the west, who can/will sponsor their entry into the western system? Western humanities graduates are themselves without jobs now!

No, sir. You simply aren't looking at it from the Canadian bureaucracy PoV. They will look at her potential benefit to Canada.
Tax Payer? No
Necessary for Canada/Marketable skills? No

There are so many Disha Ravis in this world that no one cares about these two bit celebrities.
She will get a Canadian PR only if
a) someone politically powerful in Canada [not the two bit celebrities like Greta Thunberg or Rihanna] sponsors her
b) intelligence agencies need her.

Neither is true for Disha Ravi. She is just another idiot who became a corpse for wokes.
Canadian/western intelligence agencies will not take some girl who has already come under the scanner of the security agencies in India. They will want someone who is plausible as an influencer, not an idiot jailbird with no particular skills [from their point of view].

@sarkar_swati Yes, it is very easy to read Bangla, Telugu, Malayalam and Kannada, if you have a strong hold on Sanskrit.
@sarkar_swati All Indian languages are very closely linked to each other, especially to Sanskrit. Learn a couple and the others become quite easy. There is a civilisational unity in India, and also a linguistic harmony. If you go with an open mind, learning a new Indian language is trivial.
@sarkar_swati Supposedly, Kashmiri is very *Persianised*. Funnily enough, I am finding a lot of Sanskrit words in it. And even more amusingly, you can use Sanskrit words and find that they are in the Kashmiri dictionary [in slightly different form] often. :)

Brihatkathaamanjari has a effervescent praise for the dark skin colour. A dark lady bathing in the Ganga is described as being as beautiful as the confluence of the Ganga and the Yamuna. 1:2:77-78
BTW, the dark lady in question is a Brahmin. Should not the Brahmin ladies be very fair according to the Aryan migration/invasion theorists? Why are the Aryans praising dark skin colour, when they were enslaving dark skinned folk, according to these wise folk?

To be fair, free speech was always a *very tenuous concept* in the west. Punishing people for their *thoughts* was the norm. The church was the choice instrument for torturing people for rebellious thoughts, same as the mullahs do in Islam. Inquisitors and mullahs were the norm.
It was the temporary changes in the elite order in the late 1700s and early 1800s that caused a massive change, but it is now returning to the feudal order, which is native to both the west and Islam. In contrast, the dharmic world was always a bastion of free speech.
Churchmen and the barons lived in castles, to protect themselves, not only from the enemy, but also from their peasantry [the flock, in their own terms!]. In total contrast, the dharmic teachers lived among the people, without any need for such security against their ow people.
