Meitei intellectuals hitting rock bottom of shame.

Bimol Akoijam on Manipur: "The colossal violence of the Partition was possible because of the collapse of moral compass under pressure from the frenzy generated by the separatist & exclusivist agendas of communal politics."
This is an example of being a talkative mute akin to Alexis de Tocqueville who justified Algerian colonial oppression by France, although remained critical of American slavery. There is more.
Here are some questions:
Do Meities have no agency at all? Are they all behaving due to "provocations"? Have they no power at all?

First, Bimol blamed geo & colonialism alone for the crisis, now "communal politics" for assault on women?

This is as good as blaming the victim:
Like women for facing violence at the hands of men. Miyas for being Muslims for the violence they face. Victims of Nellie for being in Assam.

This is how all perpatrators wash their hands. I am in no doubt anymore, that you are one. Your repressed violence is for all to see.
