Meaningful discussion on Khalistan is erased from mainstreamed Sikh discourse because:
- There’s a huge deficiency in knowledge
- Internalised trauma
- Defining Sikh politics through a weird lens of what Sikhs think settler neoliberalism wants to see, rather than GurSikhi.
- Fear
This disturbing nazi-esque development continues the pattern of the indian state of criminalising Sikh *expression* - no ‘crimes’ have been committed, even by repressive indian standards - what the indian state is criminalising is the *idea* of Khalistan.

On the left is @Sunnymalton1, @bygbyrdpro and @BigBoiDeep1 using the hype generated by Goat Vs Moose to remind people of #FreeJaggiNow, capturing the true spirit of revolution embodied by hip hop
On the right is @SidhuMooseWala hyping a Hitler quote for some fucking reason.
It was a huge honour to do the stage seva for the #FreeJaggiNow protest & raise our voices for the prisoners & Shaheeds of Khalistan.
Shout out to @ActivistsUk & the gupt naujawan for organising the protest, doing Langar seva, & bringing sangat together from all over the uk.
“When we think of Khalistan, we think of human rights violations and the genocide of Sikhs by Congress”
Sikh politicians indentured to the state should not be commenting on issues of Sikh sovereignty, they’ll always distort reality to fit their limits.

“indian independence” embodies colonial occupation, dispossession, displacement, & state violence. India as a political entity is an imposition on the indigenous people trapped within, persecuted for their religious practice, skin colour, & even the conditions of their birth.
🚨 actual genocide apologist 🚨
The trope that the Delhi pogroms were retribution for the killing of Indira Gandhi is straight government propaganda. The pogroms were planned and resources by the Congress party/state.
indian state media continues to demonise the Sikh liberation movement & the martyrs of Khalistan. british police, at the behest of india, have previously raided the houses of Sikh acitivists, including our co-founder.
We won’t be theatened into silence.

Mad fan art. I’ve been called many things, a “hardline youth leader”, a “new age militant”, a “Khalistani terrorist” but never “leader of the prestigious NSYF”, which is now my official title.

Censorship of Khalistan’s Shaheeds continues with @instagram removing posts that pay tribute to our Quams heroes.
Continued attempts to silence Sikh voices the parchar of Sikh Youth UK will not stop no matter how many platforms you attempt to remove them.
