Parody. Silly observations on India & the world. My tweets are not endorsed by me

Amusing to see how protective left liberals are of their bubble. All going balisitic over Amish only because he appeared on NDTV
This insecurity exists as they know their beliefs have no foundation and can't withstand any scrutiny
Same reason why they target people like Sanjeev Sanyal and Vikram Sampath - they see them as risks which can infect people within their bubbles.
Incredible ability to rapidly identify exactly who poses a risk and who, no matter how vocal, can be ignored.

I am sitting in an extremely busy restaurant all alone at a table for four. Eating and drinking extremely slowly as crowds of people are waiting and staring angrily at me.
Potential lynching situation developing
Raised my hands as if to ask for the bill
Noticed the hope in people’s eyes
Ordered another drink

Tomorrow is the French Presidential elections between Emmanuele Macaroon and Marie Biscuit
My long years of being an arrogant person have given me a unique insight into the French psyche. Here is what you should expect tomorrow. A thread (1/2452)
The least talked about aspect of the current French President is how he didn't let his previous career in erotic movies get in the way of his current political ambitions.
His starring role in the Emmanuele series of films made him a household name in the 1990s

Some terrifying information has come up today which conclusive proves we are no longer in the India we grew up in
Drastic increase in electrocution risks - especially in the Gangetic belt
Who lives there? Muslims and Dalits. The government is trying to electrocute the weakest sections of society

Canada actively interfered in India's internal affairs during the farmer protests.
Funds raised at an industrial scale in Canada was one of the key reasons why a small group of people could hold the country hostage for a year
Eventually the government had to surrender - millions of our poor farmers yet again paid the price.
What consequences did Canada face? Nothing. Just the way it faced no price after the Khalistanis it actively supports blew up 300 Indians in the Kanishka bombing

A trend is taking shape - Bangladesh and Pakistan will present their domestic fundamentalism as a "reaction" to "more communalism" in India
Actual slaughter of the handful of Hindus left there will be justified as retribution against the perceived attacks within India
This will be helped by the narratives being framed by the "moderate" Islamists within India on how the whole Hindu community is now radicalized and the only difference with Nazi Germany is that we do not speak German

Afghan refugees have kept raping women across Europe. The press kept covering them up to avoid giving fodder to "nationalist groups"
While being horrifying on its own, what does this remind you of?
"Within hours or days of their arrival, the Afghan-refugee grapevine educates newcomers as to the ins and outs of navigating the country: what offices to go to and what to say when you get there, where to apply for additional aid, where to find free housing"

The Olympics provided another opportunity for us to assess the two political options we face today. The differences are stark and consequential
In the last 14 days, the PM was the loudest and most prominent cheerleader for our players (for both winners and almost-winners)
Rahul Gandhi meanwhile spent the week working hard to turn a horrifying gangrape of a child into an opportunity to create inter-caste discord

Imagine the following
BJP wins a state election - then goes around methodically targeting the opposition
People get murdered all around, women get gangraped. Evidence begins to emerge that particularly Muslim women are being targeted

Imagine where Jack Dorsey's ego is after slaying Trump. You think he will comply with our laws?
My naïve view is that India should suspend Twitter operations immediately (by direct/indirect means) & then let Twitter negotiate
Landing a punch on the bully first is important
Out of all the tech giants, Twitter is the least important to the people of India. Smallest user base and almost zero commercial implications
Just shut them down and tell them "We are busy now, check for an appointment in October"

Mani Shankar Aiyer has just begun a room on clubhouse to discuss how Rajiv Gandhi built digital India. Please join and record for use in 2024. Pretty sure he will end up insulting all kinds of people
Sam Pitroda has also joined. He is speaking very slowly. As if every word is being first approved by 10 JP first

Thrilling conversation on Clubhouse right now - some disco Khalistanis from America alongside some desi Woko Haram trying very very hard to subtly justify the Hindu deaths in the Delhi riots
An American lady EXTREMELY confidently claiming BJP will lose Maharastra if elections are held today. Not sure about Bengal

The famous pic from 1971 - Pak soldier checking if the genitals are Bengali.
It will soon be 3 months since COVID shut down the world.
A lifetime worth of important insights can be gleaned from how countries reacted to it. Here are a few which seemed important to me
Trust in what the government says is very high in East Asia (Japan,SK,Taiwan,SGP,HK), robust in India and signs of severe decline in USA/UK
Lack of trust should be a leading indicator of political instability

Yesterday was the 75th anniversary of the end of WW2
Could you name this country from the war?
9th largest fighting force - 2.5 mil soldiers
~90k dead
~35k wounded
~68k PoWs
One of the very few countries active in European,African & Asian theaters of battle
India's major role in WW2 is never discussed in India. And barring some references to it within UK, the world has long forgotten our contribution
But it is interesting to compare some numbers.....

With videos of stranded migrants flooding SM and TV screens, it may be difficult to say this - but overall the lock-down has been reasonably successful
Every sixth human being on the planet is an Indian - we are asking a country of 1.3b to pause their lives. We are still in Week 1 and it has been much less chaotic, violent and ill-disciplined than it could be

It is tragic how Islamists cannot point to a single Muslim majority country and say ‘This is how you run a tolerant nation’
Over 60 countries to choose from and not a single example. Clearly a Hindu-Jewish conspiracy
Islamists see Islam as superior to all faiths
So they define ‘tolerance’ as follows
In Muslim minority countries, Muslims should have more rights than kafirs
In Muslim majority countries, any right for the kafir is more than enough

The Trump Era has normalized absurdities so much that people have stopped noticing the unprecedented nature of the key players in the American presidential elections this year
Let’s take Bernie Sanders as an example – A decade ago, he was not even a part of the Democratic Party. He always identified as a Socialist and spent almost his whole political life isolated and as an object of curiosity
