Everyday everywhere, they themselves, in explicit terms, are calling for genocide in clearly Nazi like language, in public, on video, and yet there will be people going 'Gaurav, you shouldn't be throwing around words like genocide'

I'm not.

I'm just a sentient being listening.
People who go "why isn't modi doing anything to stop this?" remind me of a 12 year old me wondering why the pro wrestling referees didn't learn from past mistakes and stop the cheap shots and the disqualification loopholes.

My defense. I was 12.

What's yours?
Both the Delhi police and the VHP basically answer to the RSS. Why this feels like WWE where Stone Cold & Vince McMahon trash talked each other in public but behind the scenes were thick as thieves.

World Hindu Council threatens the police of the capital of the world's biggest democracy to not intervene in their genocide of Muslims.

The World Hindu Council is an affiliate of the ruling party.

BTW despite Bollywood movies creating a myth of Indian cops being ineffective & always late to the scene, they are generally the biggest and also the best informed gang in town. Even more so than American cops. None of this could be happening without their complicity.
"Why is Modi silent?" might be the most naive question asked in history by so many people. There are people in 2022 who still genuinely wonder why Modi is silent. #StopMuslimGenocideInIndia
Sanghi agent who is explicitly publicly inciting genocide against Muslims also takes time out to praise Putin for not just invading Ukraine, but also preparing to invade Finland and Sweden. He is literally asking for "targeted killing".

Prabodhanand earlier in the thread & Yati here make an identical gloating point.

"Until recently, Hindu religious leaders only spoke about religious & spiritual stuff. It is fortunate that today, they are speaking up about protecting Hindus."

Gloating!

Literally, they themselves are saying that this ongoing widespread daily use of Hindu religious platforms to target Muslims is a new and welcome development for them. And they are taking it as a sign for "dharmyudh" (holy war). And telling everyone to arm themselves & attack.
As Zubair notes, this is a clear violation of Yati's bail conditions. But that is only relevant if the law & order machinery has any interest in actual law & order.

There is no real institutional penalty or disincentive in 2022 India for inciting genocide publicly.
There is no deterrent against inciting Muslim genocide in India these days. In fact there are clear financial & political incentives for doing so.

This is not a sin of omission by the Indian government, letting these daily genocidal events unfold. It's a sin of commission.
No amount of inquiry commissions can deter collective sins of commission.
Is there a body count minimum I'm unaware of for us to call an ongoing genocide an ongoing genocide? Because they themselves are now literally calling it genocide themselves. As you can see everyday from video evidence. Where they taunt police etc.

If there's only one tweet you can read in this long thread, make it this one. #StopBulldozingMuslimHouses #StopMuslimGenocideInIndia
If reading that doesn't send a chill up your spine, nothing will. It is EXACTLY describing India. But it's a 2018 article about the Holocaust
Feeling this very despondent clarity that comes with reading too much history. As that line in BSG said, all of this has happened before, all of this will happen again.

But PhD's need dissertations defended and papers need to be peer reviewed. Usually I don't have to force work.

Dear @HolocaustMuseum

I hope someone on the staff is documenting what is happening in India these days. It is literally the same playbook detailed in your museum, almost step by step. They are currently at the step where they demolish Muslim houses with official decree.
Lterally on this day, that's how closely they are following the Nazi road of a multi pronged attack of demonizing in media, sending "vigilante" mobs to attack, glibly justify mobs, police & courts stand by or join in, deportations, you know what's next.

Haha, let me get this straight.

In 2005, I had a blog with just 100 regular readers.

I made a post linking to a magazine investigation into the truth/lies in IIPM, added details on why it's an expensive diploma mill, moved on with life.

Months later they emailed a legal threat
Demanding I delete my blog & apologize or they would sue me, a random junior manager in Bombay, for ₹125 crore, over a factually accurate blog post not read by more than a 100 people.

I was like nope & ridiculed the badly written faux legalese. And moved on with life.
Arindam Chadhari, instead of letting it go, decided to call up IBM, my employer then who also sold a lot of laptops to IIPM, to get them to lean on me to delete my factually accurate post.

Thankfully, IBM is an American company with policies & processes.

Bro Nestle itself was selling Maggi bonda in its campus shacks when I was in college in the late 90s. Please don't add Maggi gatekeeping to the random Indian food gatekeeping. I would love to try this!
Now feeling nostalgic about a Mood Indigo in 1998 when I first had said Maggi bonda. 😭
Also Maggi was LITERALLY created in India in 1980s as a snack by Nestle to offer a substitute for the like samosa and bhajiya for the evening chai snack. As a way for housewives to make the afternoon snack in "just two minutes".

Nestle didn't sell instant noodles anywhere

Why the Catskills are one of the few rural areas in America I feel so very much at home in. Sunday @k_rupal & I got drawn into and engaged in a Republican bashing Trump bashing loud conversation at a restaurant by a charming charismatic lady very reminiscent of a Sopranos mom 😂
She walked in loudly saying to everyone "Jesus this cold weather on Easter! And it was warm in December. But no no no no, global warming isn't real. It's all a Chinese hoax! Blame the Republicans for this weather, folks."

Wife & I look at each other thinking
And she sat at the next table. And was very chatty. Very friendly. Very liberal. Talked about her liberal son a lot, saying how he taught her all the right loving things. "He was never into PlayStations or even phones. He just wants to read books. And he sends me things to read."

Ugh, this! I first ran into Brandon Stanton 10 years ago or so in Washington Square Park when Humans of NY was just getting social media traction and he would set up a board sharing stories in the park and help people in need.

He's never turned it into a "business". To this day.
Stanton has always used his public platform for philanthropy, giving voice to the ignored, talking empathy and humanism. To not only plagiarize the idea & claim it as innovation AND turn it into a for profit influencer marketing type business is just unconscionable!
