In transit.

Yes, saw the replies. From you and many others.

Poonam is clearly a real person.

I still don't know why she vouched for someone who claims to be a Sikh from SoCal and attending Harvard. But who clearly isn't. And who talks in bambaiyya Hindi.

It's so weird!
I'll try to keep this short cos Galapagos beckons.

I had no personal or even ideological disagreements with Brandy or Poonam.

But there's a bunch of stuff that doesn't add up and I have a strong survival instinct.
If these are all just benign misunderstood people, I will publicly apologize to them both.

If I fucked up, I will admit I fucked up. Longtime followers know that.

But a lot just doesn't add up. Especially the SoCal & Harvard pretense.

Just as I'm about to enter the Equator site, a friend sends this pic. Of a woman from Mumbai on LinkedIn. Whose pics were used by Behere to try to catfish me as @k_rupal & I figured out months ago. For a fake account called brandy. Vouched for by a fake account Poonam. Image
This brandy account got very friendly with me, saying she is from SoCal.

My wife is from SoCal. And from the beginning, she was like, no Desi woman in so cal has the Bombay Hindi vocabulary this woman has. It's definitely Behere who she flagged as creepy years ago.
I wrote a long thread with all the details. First the Poonam account, that also had all the signs of being a fake account, said "I assure you, she's real".

I said, respectfully, I don't know you so I can't take your word for it. "She" went ballistic, as did Devlina etc.

Stories like these, ironically, make me very hopeful about America and the world in general!

Cos just a few decades ago, Italians, Poles, Irish, etc were treated as non white.

But baby boomer white Americans inter married a lot & the hierarchy disappeared.

As Dr A predicted!
Dr. Ambedkar talked about how inter marriage is a very reliable way to annihilate discrimination.

Cos if most people marry outside their in-group, there would be no more in groups in 2 generations.

And white America is a great piece of evidence for his hypothesis.
To put it a bit crudely, the best strategy to annihilate discrimination is to pair up with someone outside your in-group, be it caste or race or whatever.

If we all fuck each other, we will end up like each other.

Not even rumors. I'm old enough to remember exactly how he did it.

Instead of using MTNL for the cheap cellphone tech in 2002, he changed rules and pricing regulations for Rcom to come in super cheap.

I still remember the joke

3GCDMA = 3 Great Chors, Dhiraj Mukesh Anil 🤣🤣
The thing is though, Rcom was a very good service!

It was cheap and good and reliable, like most things reliance for a customer.

That's the Adani-Ambani difference.

Gautam is just a Modi type thirsty huckster.

Mukesh etc are actual capitalists who do actual capitalism, & win.
I'm no fan of Ambani style crony capitalism, but at least Mukesh turns their jugaad into happy customers, happy investors, no matter which party is in power.

I still don't know what skill Gautam Adani has other than converting oxygen into carbon dioxide and liking Modi.

When I was in school, I had a rich friend who traveled a lot. Their family started a tourism business. And did a few slide shows on schools for us of their travel pics. In the 90s. Before social media or digital cameras.

A slide from Kenya REALLY made an impression on me...
That slide had them visiting the equator in Kenya

And there was a pic where someone had one foot in the northern hemisphere and other in the southern.

That just totally blew my mind! Instant bucket listing.

(Oh, remembered that @damlesafaris are on Twitter! Hi Amol!)
I used to dream about traveling with @damlesafaris to such places, but my family just did not have money then to even go to Nigdi Appu Ghar, forget Nanyuki Town.

That equator slide stayed with me forever.

I also will have legs in different hemispheres one day, I resolved!

Heartbreaking thread. Been expecting this for a while. :(

These kids have no voice or champion or interest group batting for them. And they were very much legal immigrants.

A reminder that immigration restrictions are cruel and counter productive. Image
Reading the replies is pissing me off even more! A bunch of people giving unsolicited advice about how she could join the military or go to Canada or whatever like she doesn't know about Google.

THIS is the heartbreaking thing 👇

Can't even imagine!

Isn't there a single person in government who realizes how horribly unfairly these kid and families are being treated?
