Chellaney is ironically displaying his own cognitive decline. This "strategic thinker" gets taken in by tiny clips edited by maga trolls instead of looking up the full clip. Or even just the transcript.

Or maybe inclusiveness and unifying ideals are incoherent to Chellaney?
Maga maggots keep randomly editing clips & fixating on a fumbled word because they have little else to attack Biden on. And they're partisan.

Why desi "nationalist" Twitter is randomly inserting itself into this, no idea. Especially when it was a very sweet inspiring bit.
Fun fact that's a bit "inside baseball" re US politics. The whole "I traveled 17,000 miles with Xi" thing is one of President Biden's frequent #FactCheckBait. And he throws it out often. Maga Twitter goes obsessing over it & crying 25th amendment. And Biden likely giggles.
Washington Post fact checkers have already given the "17,000 miles" line 3 Pinocchio's long ago. While saying it's the number that's wrong, but the overarching point of his long history with Xi Jinping is totally accurate.

That's like textbook fact check bait, Potusji! 😍🤗
MAGA maggots obsess on the slightest verbal fumble to scream 25A cos they vewy vewy upset about how often it was mentioned for Trump.

Why desi media and cable news sinecure holders like Chellaney are jumping in, I don't know. Maan na maan main tera mehmaan. 🤷🏽‍♂️
Biden has been in politics 50 years. He started off as one of the youngest senators ever (wasn't even 30 when he won the election) and ended as the oldest president.

His skin is way thicker than that insecure small hands reality TV washout.

Call him senile. He won't care. 🤷🏽‍♂️
Other than Trump, all other presidents just shrug off ridicule & cheap shots cos for most people who aren't Trump, becoming US President is enough validation of their worth.

Bush was lampooned non-stop! Even had a shoe thrown at him. Ever remember him or his staff whining?

Ordered regalia for the Undergraduate Commencement (Graduation) next month. I'll be sitting on the stage looking like a Hogwarts teacher surrounded by solemn colleagues, and jumping up going "WOOHOO" every time one of my students walks. 😁

This year is extra special, obviously.
By typical US standards, Stevens is a small university with an even smaller business school with an even smaller Marketing undergrad program. And I teach almost all undergrad courses. And am the only advisor for marketing majors.

So I get to know these students extremely well!
So these 40 or so marketing major/minor/concentration students who will graduate next month, I have an extra soft spot for. They & I navigated these years which were literally THE worst years to be a teacher, but way way worse to be a student. Such bad luck for the students.

If in 2022 you're still in the "Bombay should be a Union Territory" camp, you are either extremely ignorant or extremely Modi loving. 🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️
Even before Modi days, I never ever understood the bizarre armchair demand of making Bombay a Union Territory. It is so ignorant and so self destructive!

Statehood for Bombay, I can see the logic. Unlikely, but I see it.

Bombay Union Territory demand makes me always go...
The logic of "Bombay as Union Territory" people is that why should Bombay decisions be made by people from the hinterland (where most Maharashtra CMs come from), it should have autonomy and its own powers....so let's switch to a system where the Prime minister in Delhi rules us?

In my young naive days... Like 2019 or so.. whenever Twitter sanghis asked me "source? reference? link?" I would very sincerely furnish it. Hoping that the info will change their minds.

But they don't really want answers. They want an opening for more questions. Neverending ones
So nowadays when I see a sanghi swarm going sourcesourcesourcesource, I'm like, nahin deta source, uproot what you want to uproot. Main Kya Google dikhta hai Kya? 🥸
Funny thing is, NOT giving them answers actually makes my message spread wider. Cos sealioning is designed to keep you tied up in knots forever with a barrage of questions. When you ignore them, they get even more incensed and try to scream louder as if Twitter is an audio app.😂

Hahahaha it seems I've been living rent free in his head since February. First thing he does after Imran goes is looks up my old tweet to QT.

Thanks for obsessively remembering, Ajit. 😂😂
Bhaktfolk, I love it when you take my QT baits and I especially love it when you remember my QT baits months later and amplify them. Please continue.
Oooh since @ajitdatta is so kindly sending me free bhakt traffic, I better post some more Savarkar jokes. Bhakts love those.

Wait, there are actually people in India who think that Bangalore start-up dude offering bonuses to people with a Body Mass Index of under 25 was NOT a horrible idea, even if well-intentioned? Like Bangalore tech scene isn't already toxic and demanding and shaming-filled enough?
How can someone in 2022 not see what a colossally horrible idea it is to tie someone's BMI to individual bonuses? What is happening in India these days? Has fascism seeped in everywhere?
I blame post pandemic Desi LinkedIn for this.

A pandemic time love for R & I has been #DerryGirls set in the 90s and we often wonder, how did Ireland go from an extremely rabidly conservative, violence-riddled, and impoverished country to where it is now in just 2 decades? A rare positive move by a country in the 21st cent.
In 1986, Ireland had a referendum that continued the ban on divorce by a 64-36 margin.

In 2015, Ireland had a referendum that legalized gay marriage by a 63-37 margin!

That is a whiplash inducing pace of change in less than 30 years, right?

How did it happen?
Fintan O'Toole's book "We Don't Know Ourselves", reviewed in this week's New Yorker, lays in out in fascinating and acerbic detail!

Basically the hypocrites overplayed their hand after years of using hypocrisy to perpetuate orthodoxy & abuse.
