Meet Tommy Genesis aka Genesis Yasmine Mohanraj

Audrey Truschke is back with a new book to teach India and Indians about its ancient history🧵
The propaganda to plagiarize and appropriate our truthful history is back with a timeliness dating to 5000 years. Image

1. The platform

As usual Zia UsIslam from the Hindu arranged for a propaganda interview and The Hindu aptly published Audrey Truschke History propaganda interview!!
So smooth for an anti Hindu anti India newspaper. Image
2. The Aryan question
As usual Audrey Truschke deftly labelled the very origin of India's human population As "MIGRANTS" by saying that I side stepped word "Aryan" to avoid controversy!!
But her point- Nothing was indigenous to India including it's Vedic culture. Image
