Just yesterday y'all were crying that US visa wait times are too long.
Now you are like, India should issue an advisory that don't go to US and #BoycottUSA
Chronology wise it seems very much like "you can't fire me cos I quit!"
Modi has just created a generation of Rotlu's. Who buy into the constant passive aggressive whining against Murrca.
Btw America kisi ki sagi nahin. Plus your PM & his online army literally campaigned for Trump. Jaishankar whines about WaPo columns. Blamed Biden for 2nd wave.
If it was Manmohan's or even Vajpayee's India complaining about such things, you can understand.
But like literally, your guy said "Ab ki baar Trump sarkar". Your online acolytes harass the desi origin Vice President and her niece!
Why exactly will Biden admin favor Modi India?
The sanghi & godi media attitude about US seems to be, we will do all kinds of fascist shit to help your fascists. But if somehow your democrat wins, you should still treat us super special.
Why would they?
Obama gave his first state dinner to MMS. That's earned respect.
Plus sanghis go out on the streets lynching people and destroying minority property and cops seem more focused on arresting journalists and protestors than criminals. The govt released a bunch of convicted rapists & child murderers and felicitated them.
Advisory is most valid!
You know what will happen in USA if tomorrow India issues a retaliatory advisory to stop people from going to the US because of gun violence?
Republicans will be like, YAY! Fewer brown people!
Democrats will be like, see, this is why we need gun control.
No one will whine.
Apart from the bigotry, the bloodthirst, the mob love, the violence, and the hypocrisy of the Sanghi, what annoys me a little extra is just how whiny they have made India! So whiny! Just whine whine whine! Whine about Rihanna, vaccine patents, travel advisory, F-16s.
Yawn!
Oh yeah, there's this of course. India is barely a blip in US media these days. Gone is the Vajpayee-Manmohan era of 9/11 to 2014 when India was getting a lot of attention & coverage, mostly positive.
When your economy and your society is genuinely doing well, NYT and WaPo and TIME will tell the world that louder than you can.
When you have to claim loudly that your economy & society is great, Western media is "biased", your economy & society is in trouble.
Biden is not a fan of Modi. Modi is not a fan of Biden. That has been clear from the start.
Modi thinks whining publicly will make Joe act like, arre Narendra is upset? We must course correct.
Joe, Ron, Tony don't say stuff in public. But they're not newbies like Trump.
Trump and Putin have made everyone think that diplomacy is done over Twitter & TV.
Nope.
It's done behind closed doors. By building relationships and aligning interest. It's global chess. It's not pretty. But it needs at least some depth, some principles, some reciprocity.
That useless Jaishankar fellow just comes to America, meets his 3 kids, all of whom are settled in America, and then gives whiny aggrieved irrelevant speeches trolling USA & getting applause from MAGAsanghis. No actual diplomacy.
Results are evident for everyone.
Most bizarrely, I don't see the endgame in randomly picking public fights with America.
India is LITERALLY the only major world civilization that the US military-industrial-media complex has never fought with (tho we came close in 1971). Why are they poking the bear?
Do people in India realize that America no longer has a president who just does cable news and Twitter everyday?
Unfortunately the only skills Modi and his cabal have are cable news and Twitter.
It's getting embarrassing, just how bad sanghis are at everything.
America has so far fought with and/or fucked up
- Britain
- Spain
- Italy
- Russia
- China
- Japan
- Korea
- Germany
- Mexico
- Mesopotamia
- Persia
- Southeast Asia
- South America
- Middle East
Sanghis seem keen on joining the list for no apparent reason.
Do y'all realize what the US Military-Industrial-Media complex is capable of? It has historically had no interest in India, but sanghis are really starting to tempt them.
Sanghiyon ko desh aage nahin badhana, TRP aage badhana hai bass.
The fatal flaw in this sanghi tactic of publicly whining at America is that America collectively, genuinely, republican or democrat, does not give a rat's ass about foreigners saying it's a bad place. And it cares especially little about scoldings from India.

So far #OurWawar camera traps have caught a lot of wildlife - bear, deer, raccoon, chipmunks, squirrels, skunks, coyotes, mice, and even a random stray cat!
But not a single rabbit or wild turkey which is a bummer. I was hoping to trap some to eat.
We found a bunch of old animal traps on the land. And I was reading that the tradition in that area before industrialized meat was more trapping than hunting. Deer hunting was okay but it was a logistical nightmare for most people to butcher and store em, unless for a feast.
Today, deer hunting is easy. You shoot one of those stupid things. Throw it in the back of a pickup. Take it to a USDA approved butcher. Who will vacuum seal it. You stick it in the freezer.
Not so easy in 1800s. Sure, you kill it. But what next? It might rot by evening.
Boss how can you claim vegetarianism as a default virtue in Hinduism when LITERALLY every single myth of ours involves folks hunting. Unless you think Ram or Shantanu were into taxidermy, what do you think they were hunting for? To eat!! That's the whole damn basis of Ramayana!
Like literally the story of the Ramayana is that dude goes hunting so he, wife, and brother can eat some nice roasted venison. And another dude comes and kidnaps his wife. And then war happens.
So FFS stop shoving vegetarianism down our throats using state machinery.
If it is Ram Rajya then let us eat what Ram ate. Meat. 🤷🏽🤷🏽
I think Kajol is probably the most melanin I've seen in a mainstream Bollywood actresses. And she was third gen Bollywood. And in her most famous movie DDLJ, is shamed by her mom for not being gori.
The issue of light brown vs dark brown vs black is one seen all over the world, from black America to Chile to middle East to Pakistan to India.
There was this telling experiment in which they showed people pics of Obama with varying skin darkness level, then polled them.
Somewhat emotional and rambling and sciency 🧵 coming up. 🥲
This here is the first appearance of Autumn red leaves at #OurWawar. Red maple beat out red oak.
Longtime followers will know my obsession with the beauty of Autumn red and the intriguing open science behind it.
As I've tweeted pretty much every October, the Autumn red is a fundamentally different thing than Autumn yellows and orange. And it is not yet a settled question about why exactly some trees go through this trouble of turning red just a couple of weeks of the year.
Pretty yellow leaves, like you see in Europe etc, do not require any extra effort from the trees. And makes total evolutionary sense. Deciduous trees shut down chlorophyll production as the sun grows weaker and heavy snow is about to start. That slowly turns em yellow, brown.
We've had our first big tree fall and it needs to be cleared.
With our goal to keep #OurWawar's carbon footprint minimal, I don't want to go straight to an electric chainsaw. Wanna try a good old tree saw, build muscles also.
Any recommendations for non mechanical saws?
Axe I already have. But apparently saws are faster for a fallen tree use case
I'll do a trend graph next week to confirm this and even test it statistically. But it seems like there is some kind of a recruitment or enthusiasm crisis in Malviya's cell. Hardly any accounts with 100+ followers in the hate section. It's like their C team or D team now.
And even the monotony and "copy paste and slightly edit" nature of the pushback is so lazy nowadays. Like I can just eyeball and see which 6-7 accounts with 15ish followers are all run by the same person sitting somewhere trying to make a living by "following orders".
