BJP will lose Uttar Pradesh

Lol so many 2 rupee troll bhakts going "TAKE SCREENSHOTS!!!"

So touchy! Over a simple opinion! Do they not even realize how thin skinned and petty they are getting to be so upset about me just saying their party will lose an election?

Utha le re, Uttar Pradesh

Can you imagine the state of the discourse in India if even saying something like a party will lose an election next week is enough send the ruling party's online goons into paroxysms of rage?

Do these people not get blood pressure tests regularly? Kitna rotlugiri!

"Sabnis is giving only one sided perspectives based on his own preferences and agenda and dislikes."

Hahaha, I've said this before and I'll say it again.

Main mere personal Twitter pe Mera agenda mera dislike-ich likhenga na, ya Kisi Sanghi Chaman Taplu ka? 😂😂

Don't ask me why I'm so obsessed with Uttar Pradesh elections. Ask those who aren't obsessed why they aren't obsessed.

It is quite literally THE most populated state/province on the planet.

It has as many people as Brazil does.

And a fascist criminal runs it currently.

Ajju Bisht, the chief exec of U.P. is like what you would get if Trump could get away with everything he wanted.

Bisht dismissed all cases against himself like Trump wanted to do. He passed extra harsh Muslim targeting laws like Trump wanted to do. He is also always orange 🤔.

Bisht does stuff that even Trump in his most constipated mood wouldn't do.

During India's devastating delta wave, he was arresting people for asking for oxygen.

Imagine that.

Oxygen.

He was arresting people for asking for oxygen.

I don't know if y'all have tried giving up oxygen. It's not an option.

"nobody cares what you think" sanghis say posting over 50 comments on a 5 word tweet. 🤭🤭

Yes yes, Indian Twitter'e indifference to my tweets is deafening, okay? 😂😂

Do sanghis really think "you need therapy, dude" is an insult?

Of course I need therapy!

And I am in therapy. Many people are.

Fascism is not easy to cope with without therapy.

As Bowie ji and Balsara ji sang, it's the terror of knowing what this world is about, watching some good friends screaming "LET ME OUT".

The word "Yogi" means much more than just doing stretchy exercises and wearing monochromatic clothes.

It is perfectly normal for non fascist people to need therapy in response to fascism. Trump's win led to a huge spike in therapy patients in the US.

It's the 21st century. We grew up thinking diversity is good and all humans are the same.

And then these bigots won elections.

So yeah, I do need therapy when people who say

Mexicans are rapists
Ban Muslims from USA
Muslims massacred in Gujarat 2002 are roadkill dogs
Hijabi women can't go to college
You need permission from gormint for inter faith marriages

and lot of such bigoted stuff win elections.

8 years ago, a black Muslim's law professor son was the US president, an economist Sikh was the Indian PM, an economist woman was the President of Brazil, and Britain was in the EU.

Who wouldn't need therapy unless they were fascist?

That's a lot of rapid divisive violent traumatizing change for a generation that grew up with this. Plus a pandemic and absolutely illogical wars from Iraq to Ukraine.

Garv se kaho hum therapy mein hai!

Hahahaha in logon ko theek se "ratio" karna bhi nahin aata 🤭🤭

4 hours, almost 50K views, 800 likes and just a couple of dozen trolly comments.

Looks like Malviya is losing his most effective troll farm supervisors. This is disgracefully low trolling, bhakts.

Looking at these very pathetic numbers (and they have apps to track these detailed metrics to claim payment, remember? No one is getting paid today) looks like BJP IT cell with U.P. results approaching is like

So, to give you context, this thread has been posted in at least 8 different WhatsApp and telegram groups according to the data I'm seeing. With a total of 8 million members!

And they barely managed like 35 negative comments on Sunday night in India.

In their heyday in 2017-2019, they actually managed to rack up numbers enough to make me go private overnight. Now not even 50 hate comments or hate QTs.

As a liberal, I'm happy we these numbers. But as a social media marketing prof, I'm giving you a D.

Hahaha one reply goes "because you have mass blocked list blocked auto blocked so many people" 😂😂

This is like Russia complaining that Ukraine keeps firing at its soldiers. 😂😂

Trend from yesterday continues. Lots of impressions and engagements and likes. Tiny number of sanghi troll replies and QTs. Even with voting happening in U.P.

Malviya must be on his way out
