"Karuppi" in "#PariyarumPerumal" is the metaphor used by @mari_selvaraj to signify everyone who doesn't understand the Caste system properly, but still suffers because of the Caste system.
Pariyan and his friends left the Pond. Then UC man urinate in the pond.
The UC old man killed a girl, the girl and her family will never know the reality.
UC old man kills a boy by drowning him in water. Ramalaxmi and his friends will never know the reason.
UC old man kills a man and there is a shot in which his gf is crying at the last seat of the bus. She will never understand the reason.
The police officer slaps and kicks the village head of Pariyan's village. He will never understand the reason.
JO didn't know why Pariyan was upset She will never know about casteist side of her father and relatives.
Pariyan's father would never understand why he was humiliated by the UC men at his son's Law college.
The caste is like the train.. you are already tied to the track without your choice.. you can bark but you can't escape.. even if you escape you don't know if you will face another life threatening attack in future. Caste will haunt you even if you don't understand it.

People love to preach about how loving Lord Ram was toward Sita. That’s probably because they’ve never read verses 15-25 from Sarga 115 of the Yuddha Kanda in the Valmiki Ramayana. Go ahead and read them to see just how 'loving' he really was 🧵
Verse 15 -16

Let it be known to you that this endeavor in the shape of war, which has been successful carried through, due to the strength of my friends was not undertaken for your sake. Let there be prosperity to you! This was done by me in order to keep up my good conduct and to wipe off the evil-speaking from all sides as well as the insinuation on my own illustrious dynasty.Image
Explained - The verses suggest that Ram’s focus was on his image and duty as a king. His priority was to maintain the dignity of his lineage. So the rescue of Sita and Battle with Ravana was to save only the reputation & social standing.

Thread 🧵: India’s Waste Crisis—A Dirty Truth No One Wants to Talk About Image
1/10
Let’s face it—India is drowning in trash. Everywhere you look, there’s plastic, wrappers, cans, and piles of junk. People have become desensitized to this filth as if it’s normal. But here’s the truth: it’s not just a cleanliness problem; it’s a social problem. Image

Look at what happens after Diwali. The streets are blanketed in firework remains & debris. It’s like the celebration justifies leaving our mess everywhere. Does anyone stop to think who’ll clean it up? Of course not—because that responsibility falls on someone else. Image

Here’s What’s Seriously Wrong with Laapataa Ladies: 🧵 Image
1. The dialogues are preachy and fail to resemble natural conversations among villagers. The writing feels lazy, as the Brahmin writers try too hard to put progressive dialogues into the movie that don’t fit the characters or setting. The movie compensates for it by relying heavily on drama and manipulative music.
2. Jaya is the first to tell Deepak’s mother that her food is delicious and encourages her to cook her favorite meal for herself. It suggests that Deepak never had this conversation with his mother. Yet, this same Deepak is portrayed as the ideal partner for Phool. Image

Today marks the 97th anniversary of the historic Mahad Satyagraha.

Here's a thread discussing this revolutionary non-violent protest, which was a significant milestone in the fight for social justice, dignity and equality for Dalits. 🧵 Image
On August 4, 1923, SK Bole, a social reformer, proposed a resolution in the Bombay Legislative Council. The resolution stated: Image
The Bombay government reluctantly instructed all department heads on September 11, 1923 to implement it by 19th September 1923.

An in-depth analysis of the film "Fandry" directed by @Nagrajmanjule. 🧵 Image
Family of Jabya ( Dalit) lives on the outskirts of a village. To make ends meet, the family chases away pigs and also kills them to prevent them from creating nuisance in the village—a task assigned to the Dalit family since upper-caste families consider it unhygienic & impure. Image
The young Jabya, however, remains disillusioned by the situation and develops feelings for an upper-caste girl, Shalu, who attends the same school.

This article is the result of a lack of equal representation in the media when it's predominantly controlled by upper castes.

I'm baffled about how this article passed editorial scrutiny, likely due to the overrepresentation of upper castes.

A Thread 🧵
It reads like the worst WhatsApp University propaganda, even for a reputed newspaper.

The entire article is just plain foolish. Nevertheless, I'll highlight some crucial points that are utterly absurd.

1. 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗮𝘀𝘀𝗲𝗿𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 '𝗗𝗿. 𝗔𝗺𝗯𝗲𝗱𝗸𝗮𝗿 𝘀𝘂𝗴𝗴𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗥𝗲𝘀𝗲𝗿𝘃𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝘀𝗵𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 𝗹𝗮𝘀𝘁 𝗼𝗻𝗹𝘆 𝟭𝟬 𝘆𝗲𝗮𝗿𝘀.'

We, as Dalits, are exhausted from repeatedly debunking this misinformation. It seems like the truth is often overlooked.

The 10-year limit was specifically for political reservation, a point Dr. Ambedkar never advocated. In fact, he opposed a fixed 10-year timeframe, even for political reservations for SCs.
