Of all the things I observe in 🇮🇳 politics, nothing takes the cake more than people praising leaders who denied the divinity of Lord Ram, murdered sadhus en masse, & nakedly sold the country/souls to foreign powers/missionaries simply because those leaders are of the same caste.
There is so much legitimate critique of the BJP. They should indeed dilute that horrid SC/ST act. They should leave most traditional religious practices alone, instead of going on social engineering experiments. They should fulfill their 303 mandate.
But switching to virulently anti-Hindu opposition due to caste pride? The same opposition that has promised reservation in the private sector? That butchers Hindus in a holy land like Bengal? The same people who opposed Ram Mandir which the BJP made a reality?

Myopic malaise.
It makes so much sense why India was divided and cut into 1000 pieces over the past 1000 years. Permanently in a backwater. Fighting amongst themselves. Each tribe used as a pawn on a chessboard by whichever foreign power entered

Why a tiny wet island conquered a subcontinent...

The National Agriculturist Party began as a loose coalition of landlords, both Hindu & Muslim in the run up to the 1937 United Province elections (modern day Uttar Pradesh).

The tale of the NAP reveals the role of provincial panchayat level squabbling in the Partition
One of the NAP’s prominent leaders was the Nawab of Chhattari, Muhammad Ahmed Said Khan.

A frenemy of Jinnah’s, he parted ways with the Muslim League in a quest for power, believing economic interests would defeat communal interests (he still agreed with Jinnah’s supremacy.)
The NAP compromised of Muslim & Hindu Zamindars, landlords who believed they could strong arm their subjects no matter the religion in a battle against land reform (very familiar huh?).

They collapsed in slow motion once communal & economic realities hit them.

In an Indian leftist CH room & the speakers are competing over who takes more anti-psychotic drugs LMFAO

The genesis of this is that a girl’s mental health state was triggered by another speaker’s comments & attempt to cancel her

Another speaker has labeled all this problematic
There is now a war over pronouns. A speaker has labeled another as a woman. The labeled person has taken umbrage with this and sharply corrects the speaker that she is non-binary

Another speaker has pointed out that the labeled person has pronouns they/she so saying woman is ok
However, the non-binary person has dug their heels in & challenged the person over their feminist credentials

They are now debating over the origin of their theoretical praxis. There is a massive war over the misgendering with a menagerie of South Bombay Hindi & forced English..

"Until February 2021, India had only ever had five months where goods exports had surpassed $30 billion. These five months were spread over the preceding decade. Since March 2021, India has had five straight months where goods exports have exceeded $30 billion every month."
"Nearly 1.8 lakh formal jobs have been created by 16,000 start-ups which were recognised in the last financial year. Several times more indirect jobs get created with a formalisation of jobs being created as well as aggregated by the start-up ecosystem."
"The highest ever FDI inflow of $82 billion was clocked in the last financial year. This was 10 percent more than the 2019-20 figure....The month of May saw $10.5 billion coming in. Again, these figures become doubly critical in the context of the pandemic-led disruptions."

Some notes on America's affair with the Fed & with China.

A brief history of America, the Federal Reserve, & China's economic relationship. 🇺🇸🇨🇳🪙
Let's start with the CCP taking power in China. After a century of humiliation & the subsequent strife/civil war. Mao Zedong's CCP took power in China in 1949. An economic & demographic catastrophe followed as the Great Leap Forward fell & Cultural Revolution ruined China.
The US, on the other hand, was riding the waves of victory post-WW2 and preparing its booming economy & military for the next conflict on the horizon - communism. America would soon become an empire as it fanned across the world to contain this Red Enemy.

In the Feudal Ages, the Church had a monopoly over morality & information flow. With scribes to create thought and the swords of patronized & faithful feudal lords to enforce it.

The New York Times is one of the new "Churches" as the creators of a new mass morality, a religion.
The scribes are academics who create and capture the flow of knowledge. Their credentials are propped up and reinforced by "churches" - NYT, WashPo, etc. What they say is published, as long as they adhere to their predecessors and patrons.

Diverge and they face ostracization.
The lords and kings are the various institutions and corporations who will destroy your livelihood if you blaspheme and will not hesitate to send their attack dogs/lead serfs at you if you deviate from the mind of the Church.

Let’s cut the BS - Punjab is facing annihilation.

Not from the Hindoos, not from Godi media, not from the chaiwala, not from Gujarati kutte Ambani Adani, not from non-Jats.

But from a depleted water table caused by the current farming methods & incentives.
Punjab faces annihilation via desertification.

The images below show the dire need of reform in Punjab & the adjacent areas - yes the areas where protests are massively derived from.

Unequal MSP allotment and addiction will destroy the land if things remain.
But wait, what if we just double down on MSP to higher rates or to all crops?

Good luck with the inflation that will whiplash to the common man as the gov rots in a massive deficit.

& the water table will get worse, furthering the speed of annihilation of a beautiful Punjab.
