7.8% GDP in Q1 FY26, Bhakts calling it booming, Trump called India a dead economy, US tariffs hitting exports, REAL GDP on the ground shows farmers in debt, youth unemployed, rupee crashing.

Skip this thread if you can’t handle facts about India.. Image India’s GDP grew 7.8% in Q1 FY 2025-26, surpassing expectations. Headlines celebrate a booming economy.

But walk the streets of Punjab, Assam, or Madhya Pradesh and you see a different picture.

Farmers are drowning in debt, daily wage earners struggle to find work, small shopkeepers are shutting down.

Growth exists on paper, not in everyday life.

I know Govt. supporters will defend this too.

But India’s emergency healthcare is f***ed up.

What happened last Monday shook me.
And when I dug into the facts, I realised:
This system is not broken.

It’s hollow by design.

Let me show you. Image Last Monday, a relative of mine suffered a brain stroke.
We rushed to the nearest hospital.
They gave CPR , which is not needed for stroke.
Then said, “We don’t have facility.”
Take him somewhere else.
He died on the way to AIIMS.
Not because of the stroke.
Because of delay.

This isn’t just Trump’s 50% tariff.

It’s pure Game Theory.

India is the losing player.

Pakistan, Bangladesh, Vietnam = quiet winners.

Govt is silent.
Godi Media won’t speak.
Bhakts will just find a new daddy.

Let’s break it down - step by step. Image In Game Theory, each player makes moves to maximize gain and minimize loss, based on what the opponent might do.

Trump made his move:

– 50% tariff on Indian goods
– Energy deal with Pakistan

Now India has to respond. But how?

Ethanol debate is everywhere - SM, TV, WhatsApp, headlines
But it’s full of emotions, no data 🫡

Everyone talks benefits
No one asks questions
Not about cost
Not about mileage
Not about water
Not about who profits

Let’s ask what no one is asking 👇 Image They said it’s for farmers
They said it’s for the planet
They said it’s for energy independence
But none of it adds up
What they hide behind ethanol is not a fuel policy
It’s a silent scam, paid for by you

i know you’re not gonna like this thread 🧵

Modi ji said: “Festival season is here, buy Swadeshi.”
Good speech. Great sentiment.

But this economy? It’s desi only on Festive banners.

Let’s break it thought by thought. Image You gifted a smartphone this festive season.
It felt “local” because it was bought from an Indian shop.
But that phone?
– Chip: Taiwan
– Screen: Korea
– Battery: China
Indian showroom. Foreign soul.

Let’s fact-check and destroy this tweet.

Some people saw a green stock market and decided India is immune to tariffs.

Let’s break that delusion, step by step , using nothing but facts.

No bhakt tears. 🧵👇 Image Nifty 50 “no major change”?
Nifty today: 24,565
Nifty 1 year ago (Aug 2024): 25,005
📉 Down 1.75% YoY, despite claimed 7% GDP growth.

Also:

Nifty hit peak of 26,216 in Sep 2024

That’s a 6.3% fall from ATH

Still calling it “stable”?

Bhakts pls don’t read this...

Everyone’s upset Trump called India a “dead economy.”
But before u scream patriotism, ask yourself,

Let’s talk about the facts, not what bhakts want to believe, but what the data says. 🧵 Image We’re told “India is the fastest-growing economy”. But GDP ≠ prosperity.

While GDP grew at ~6.5%, real wages barely moved.
Stock market soared, but job creation crashed.
Unemployment is 7.5% (CMIE), and youth unemployment ~20%.

Growth is happening. Just not for you.
