Baseless social media messages to Latinos trying to delegitimize the election and the results for Joe Biden circulated online, part of a disinformation campaign to undermine Latino confidence in the vote as it unfolded. https://t.co/e0zBWFgJFW

@jamescrawford @craigmcgill @jamescrawford I’m trying to find out more about BIP Solutions as I saw a bogus contract they have sent a family member asking for an upfront payment of £2400 - can you help shed some more light for me on who they are and what they do?

[Meena Iyer @DesiCurl]

@BiPSolutions what do you actually do as a company? What value do you contribute to society, the economy or otherwise? Just curious since I know you’re currently working to scam a family member of mine (who has already lost everything) for £2400

“I only have a minute.
Sixty seconds in it.
Forced upon me, I did not choose it,
But I know that I must use it.
Give account if I abuse it.
Suffer, if I lose it.

Only a tiny little minute,
But eternity is in it.”

- Dr. Benjamin E. Mays
(and recited by Elijah Cummings) 💜

Nepotism in this industry is finally being really challenged. When a woman like #KanganaRanaut is carving her own role in an industry, rather than celebrating her, she is mocked by the likes of @karanjohar. #nepotism #timetochange #artisforall #SupportArtists

“If you don’t like bollywood mafia, just leave the industry”: Karan Johar

People were laughing when he said that. Had they called him out there and then, Sushant Singh Rajput would’ve been promoting his movie today.

@TVNaga01 @BBCBreakfast @TVNaga01 feels like this is a decision made on the basis of ignorance and privilege. Definitely too premature, as a society we need to be looking at the #covidcrisis from a humanitarian lens and need to be focused on what is for the good of all, not just ourselves.

[Meena Iyer @DesiCurl]

https://t.co/UTlJhNRPMu This is appalling and sad, even in the face of an economic downturn which may necessitate cuts, there ought to be some strategic plan or long-term view provided for these partner organisations. #covidcrisis #socialsector #bringbackdfid

On the one hand #TristanThompson and his shameless infedelity of #KhloeKardashian...on the other hand #Zuckberg vs. #congress...both equally viral, raising debate and causing media storms. Oh the times we live in!

[Meena Iyer @DesiCurl]

https://t.co/QZRwJT1IrG So in the last two weeks the startup queen #ElizabethHolmes and king #MarkZuckerberg have been exposed as #pretenderstothethrone...in this cautionary tale however Jill fell down and broke her crown first before Jack came tumbling after #CambridgeAnalytics

[Meena Iyer @DesiCurl]

https://t.co/L8Mzt09sA3 What a blow to #womeninleadership. What a disappointment for female #entrepreneurs. What a catastrophe for #startup dreamers. #ElizabethHolmes has revealed the #fakeituntilyoumakeit betrayal of the evergreen startup promise in the #TheranosScandal

https://t.co/tKVzyjspct A must read for any Indian Classical art lover. How we preserve the dignity of our aging gurus and artists who have contributed so much in their lifetime reflects the value we place on these art forms. #preservethearts #indianclassicaldance #dance
