A professional baseball player tried cricket and realised how hard it is to stop a ball without a glove.
The funny part is they are not even playing with professional cricket ball, they played with a tennis ball & they think cricket is easy.
a professional cricket player with training would be ready to play Major League Baseball in a month but a professional baseballer would take atleast a decade to score a fifty or pick two wickets in international cricket against top teams
Why can’t we accept that our parents and grandparents, especially those above 60, belonged to a different era? Zamana hi alag tha. Aaj waqt badal gaya hai, soch bhi.
Thoda benefit of doubt de dein, thodi sewa kar lein, thoda waqt aur pyaar de dein. Apna kuch kam nahi ho jayega. ❤️
Yesterday I went through the replies under India's Olympic bid. Indians swimming in garbage. Cows on the running track. Men squatting on a race course. Most of it made by AI.
I wanted to know how this got so easy. The story starts in October 2022.
That month, Elon Musk bought Twitter. Within weeks, thousands of staff were gone. X later told Australia's online safety regulator it had cut 80% of its trust and safety engineers. The people whose job was to catch hate.
Researchers at UC Berkeley tracked what came next. Hate speech on the platform ran about 50% higher in the months after the takeover.
In January 2024, about 12,900 hate posts against South Asians in the US went up on X in a single month. That number comes from a report released two weeks ago by the Center for the Study of Organized Hate in Washington.
By the end of that year, X's own AI, Grok, could make any image in seconds. The report says AI is now mass producing cartoons of South Asians as dirty, as scammers, as vermin.
By June 2026, the monthly count had reached 43,800. Up 240%. The fastest growing kind called us dirty, up 171% in eighteen months. Almost half called us invaders or job thieves, with H1B at the centre.
And it does not stay online.
In July, Syed Sohail Uddin from Hyderabad was working at a mall kiosk in Utah. A man asked where he was from, then asked if he was Muslim. Then he stabbed him 15 times.
In September, a Sikh truck driver was stabbed at a Wyoming rest stop. Police have not named a motive. Sikh leaders say hate against Sikh truckers had been building online for months.
On October 2, someone threw bricks at a Swaminarayan temple in Ohio while priests and devotees were inside. It was the start of Hindu Heritage Month, days before Navratri.
Muslim. Sikh. Hindu. The hate does not ask which. It only sees an Indian.
Then came this month. Indians asked Musk simple questions about Starlink, and he called them Ambani's army of shills. The same week, the IOC confirmed India's 2036 bid. The replies filled up with AI cartoons. One had 198,000 likes.
India has problems. We know them, we fix them, and we talk about them louder than anyone.
America counted more than 7.7 lakh homeless people on a single night in 2024, the most ever. More than 1 lakh Americans died of drug overdoses in 2023. Indians don't fill American posts with AI cartoons of addicts in San Francisco. If we did, the world would call it racism. And it would be right.
This is not casual racism. It is organised. The report found accounts doxxing South Asians over H1B, influencers filming confrontations at their homes and offices, and AI cartoons pumped out faster than any human could draw.
And it runs on a platform that fired the people meant to stop it, built the tool that draws it, and carries it to millions. When the owner himself calls Indians shills, everyone below him gets the message.
I can't tell you what is in Elon Musk's head. I can only tell you what his platform allows.
He is fighting in public to sell Starlink to 140 crore Indians. He should look at what his own platform is selling about them.
Kind request every law maker in India to click the attached "BRICS News" post and read the thousands of disgusting comments degrading India and dehumanizing Indians.
Can we please talk about it for once in the parliament? And discuss as a nation what steps can be taken to counter this extreme genocidal hatred spread against India and Indians?
This is a multi-state sponsored, organized anti-India operation going on for too long that's affecting our exports, inbound tourism, economy, job opportunities for migrants, mental health of Indians, and physically putting them at risk of violence.
This is an issue that is beyond partisan politics affecting everyone of us and the country. IMO, this is a war that's being waged on India as serious as cross border terrorism and insurgency. So I humbly request law makers to start addressing this.
To those reading this, please repost tagging your known MP/MLAs requesting them to address this serious issue.

I respect Mukesh sir and Elon Musk a lot. I respect the Indian military more.
The Starlink and Jio debate started as a fight over how satellite spectrum is handed out. A few things stand out to me.
1. A satellite covering a whole region means worries about signal spillover near sensitive areas.
2. India's conditions are strict. Data stays in India, and agencies get real-time monitoring.
3. Where our data sits will matter more every year. Data is the new oil.
I don't think anyone is wrong here.
Elon wants to bring his technology to a huge market. Mukesh sir's Jio brought data prices down so far that millions of Indians got online for the first time.
Dear President Musk, Please allow Chinese BYD in America why should TESLA have the monopoly in the game. My Monopoly is Oligarchy and Your Monopoly is National Security !

Regulate reels. If not at least ban their monetization. A lot of issues for India created from outside will end.
An average Indian uses 28 GB data at one of the world's lowest rates. Of that nearly 20 GB is used for useless dance and drama reels.
Freeing that will free a lot of capital for Indian ISPs to provide internet to very remote areas.
And also better internet to serious customers and content makers using it for educational content, work, video conferencing and such.
Squeezing Indian companies to provide cheap data that's only used by India's adversaries without a challenge to program Indians using fake news and perversion is suicide.
