"My taxi driver" stories.
While Rajdeep trying hard; Basu da leads the show but badly lacks innovation. Image
Undisputedly, Ayyub can claim the best writer (fiction) award, anytime, anywhere. Image
All in all, Sakshii will never have such stories as she doesn't share good terms with drivers, spl. with Uber. Every few months she 'ruth jaao' & uninstalls the app. Image
Today's contest 🗣️📢: Use your black horses of imagination and compete this sentence.

"My taxi driver told me .........."
My taxi driver asked me, "why black horses sir and why not white?"

"because #BLM" I said rolling up my sleeves.

"Get out and hire a black cab", he said politely, cutting short the ride.
Many ppl noted they'll are inspired by "Fake Taxi". Analyst in me says, FB server outage is reason of this sudden surge in My Taxi Driver stories. Image
I was waving at ppl sitting outside my sea-looking posh bungalow in SRK style but then my driver spoilt it "sir they ain't fans but on dharna as the queen of 'MTD' stories is missing in your thread".

Alrgt! here you go.. some iconic mojotweets by Barkha Dutt- Image

Propaganda US journalist Raphael Satter OCI is cancelled for several violations.

Habitual offender Hanna Petersen writes Satter denied he ever conducted journalistic activity in India. Which is outright lie.

Wait, there is more to it, much deeper.

First of all, Satter lied in the court that he is not doing any journalism in India & have visited only for family purposes. Here are two such examples- note that Satter was among first one who broke Pegasus fake story which was never proven till date.

2/ Image
Second, such story was against Indian startup Appin Association where he is still facing defamation suits. In this story, he violated all journalistic standards by publishing someone else picture (knowingly) instead of targeted one because he wasn't able to get right picture.

FACT CHECK:
@IndianExpress published an article citing a 'fact check' for the fact which was never said!

Entire left cabal jumped on the news, in a very coordinated manner, misleading everyone.

Let's check it one by one.

1/ Image
To start with, it was clear to everyone that said $21mn funds for India were CANCELLED by DOGE. i.e. it was funnelled but halted before it could released or received by anyone.

So, the headline "did not go to" itself is blatantly wrong by all means.

2/ Image
This one line doesn't stop here but carries a hidden agenda and fake narrative crafting that "it was a big misunderstanding that USAID funds India to influence elections". Vicious!

This is mind-blowing!!

It looks like there is a big tussle going on between Fantasy Gaming and Opinion Trading (OT). There are links to the involvement of USAID, Ford Foundation etc in influencing policy makers against the OT.

Unmissable Thread🧵

This is a relatively new subject at large so understand the basics first.

Fantasy Gaming 🏏 : apps like Dream11, My11Circle etc. which let users create virtual teams (like IPL). If chosen players do well, you win real money!

2/
Opinion Trading 📊: This is something new & rising platform like Probo. Here, users predict outcomes of real-world events like elections, matches, stock etc. Right prediction = earn money. Its like a stock market for opinions.

The newly formed @DOGE cancelled $21M funding for NGO CEPPS for a program 'voter turnout in India'.

CEPPS website is defunct now.

Was it the first attempt at electoral interference in India by USAID? The answer is - NO.

IMPORTANT THREAD🧵

USAID program "Elections and Political Processes", to "Promote legitimate contestation for ideas and political power through democratic political processes that reflect the will of the people".

Gimmicks! The real agenda is influencing the elections.

In 2013, USAID pledged half a million dollars for India under the same category.
Funding Agency - Deptt of State
Managing agency - USAID
Implementing Parter - Consortium for Elections and Political Process Strengthening (CEPPS).

In May'24 US State Deptt hosted an event bringing 22 young rappers, singers, DJs etc across the world, including India, aiming to promote "art as activism" in their home countries.

Do you know who was invited from India and Why?

1/ Image
. @MikeBenzCyber , who is on a spree of exposing USAID and State Deptt for their funding flood to establish 'assets', just posted about a program organised by US State Deptt where they invited young artists for a two weeks workshop in May'24.

2/
Deepa Unnikrishnan (Dee MC) was invited from India. The rapper then had a moderate 96K followers on Insta, 66K subs on YT.

I wondered then what made her profile so special to be invited by US St Deptt?

I went through her public profiles and it seems I've an answer.

#BIG : How to control narratives, media spaces and FactChecks across the world, including India!

Why does it matter to you?
Let's see. Keeping it simple. Step by Step.

Wikileaks exposed USAID massive funding to "Internews" to promote covert censorship & media control.

1/ Image
Why Internews?

Because it's a readily available asset, fully funded by leftist biggies - OSF (Soros), Ford Foundation, Omidyar, Rockefeller etc.

You are already aware of these names.

So giving a project to Internews makes sense.

2/ Image
Internews outsourced the project to DataLeads in India.

Why DataLeads?

Because it is their "Fellows". Fellows means capacity building - assets.
