[Maanmohan Singh Pahujaa @msgpahujaa]

An old friend messaged me the other day. After the usual catching up, he asked a question many people wonder but don’t always say out loud:

“Why do you still support Congress?”

I paused before replying. Not because I didn’t have an answer, but because I wanted to give him an honest one.

I told him… it’s not about “still.”
It’s about why I do.

I support @INCIndia because I believe in the idea it stands for an India that belongs to everyone, not just a few. An India where differences are respected, not weaponised.

Yes, the party has had its ups and downs. What institution hasn’t? But I don’t judge it only by its moments of weakness, I look at the foundation it helped build. The Constitution, the democratic framework, the space for every voice to exist… these didn’t happen by accident.

And then there’s @RahulGandhi.

I told him, what stands out to me is not perfection, but intent. In a political climate full of loud claims, here is someone willing to listen, to walk among people, to ask questions, even if they’re uncomfortable. That, to me, is strength, not weakness.

I said, I don’t support politics that divides people into “us” and “them.” I support politics that reminds us we are one.

He asked me, “But do you really think it can make a difference today?”

I replied, change has never been instant. But it always begins with people who refuse to give up on the idea of a better, fairer country.

For me, supporting Congress is not blind loyalty. It’s a conscious choice to stand for unity over division, dialogue over noise, and hope over cynicism.

I ended the message by telling him:

“I don’t support Congress because it’s perfect.
I support it because I still believe in the India it stands for.”

@RahulSeeker This is the problem with our country, we tend to glorify anyone in power or celibraty.Someone should have objected to her being given special treatment while regular passengers wait in que.

@LauraLoomer @IndiaToday You are neither Hindu nor Indian, so stop pretending to speak for us. I’m Indian. We don’t need outsiders spreading hate about our country. India’s strength is its diversity and respect for all faiths. Keep your poison and propaganda out of it. Secular India, always.

Kerala Story 2

I am completely against banning any film, book, or any form of expression. The right to express is a fundamental human right. I respect it, even when I strongly disagree with what is being said. I believe our society is mature enough to decide what is right and what is wrong, what is good and what is not.

But the right to express also comes with the right to question, protest, and critique. That is the right I am using now.

As a Malayalee, I feel the need to speak when I see what I believe is a propaganda film that reduces a complex state and its people into a stereotype for political and commercial gain. This is not about suppressing art. It is about protecting dignity.

Let me introduce a term. Lacre. Lazy creative.

Lacre is when something is presented as creative work but lacks depth, research, imagination, and integrity. It is not made to explore truth or tell a powerful story. It is made to ride a wave. It plays to the gallery. It senses the mood of the majority and amplifies it. Not because it believes in it. But because it sells.

When you play to the gallery, you do not need courage. You need timing. You use anger, division, fear, and slogans. You align with power. You make noise. The audience reacts. The box office grows. The creators profit. What happens to the social fabric or to the people who are portrayed unfairly becomes secondary.

One simple way to identify Lacre is to see whether it ever challenges the dominant narrative. Does it question the majority view, or does it simply echo it? If it always flows with the strongest current, chances are it is not art. It is strategy.

In India today, popularity often comes before process. In cinema. In sports. Even in education. Align with the dominant ideology and you move ahead faster. The need to align sometimes becomes bigger than the need to create something honest.

Kerala has always been a state that values debate. We take pride in our literacy, our political awareness, our social indicators. Yet when we are mocked, misrepresented, or reduced to caricatures, our response is often divided. Sometimes we even support narratives that hurt us, as long as they hurt someone else more. In doing so, we forget that the damage is shared.

Ask yourself this. If Malayalees were seen as a community that would firmly defend its reputation, would a film like Kerala Story be made so casually? And a sequel released around the time of state elections? Would this happen so easily with every other state? We are often taken for granted. We rarely respond in one voice.

This is not about being defensive. It is about self respect.

I am aware that debating such films also gives them attention. But silence also sends a message. I would rather speak and risk adding to the noise than stay quiet and accept a narrative I believe is unfair.

To my fellow Indians, I say this. Learn to identify Lacre. Do not reward content that feeds on division. Do not encourage hate driven storytelling in the name of entertainment. We have already seen how hatred can build political careers. Let us not allow it to define our cinema, our classrooms, or our playgrounds.

Creativity is one of India’s greatest strengths. Culture is our real power. Identity is not something to trade for quick popularity.

Think about what we are encouraging. And think about the long term cost. #keralaStory2 #Lacre

@Amockx2022 I haven't watched any of these. Thank GOD for small mercies.

[Shantanu @shaandelhite]

BJP had no problem in taking donations from beef selling companies under Electoral bonds.

But, they are banning sale of meat near to educational institutions in Bihar.

@TheRFTeam One look at these scoundrels we know why they feel so bad about couples enjoying their time together. No girl in their right minds would have anything to do with them.

@ACTWatchIndia @KolkataPolice @hrw @IJM @zoo_bear @UNHumanRights @persecutionnews @UCANews @ACMichael1 @RahulGandhi @VaticanNews @BBCHindi @thewirehindi @AJEnglish It is only the uncertain who question the faith of others. When one’s own beliefs are firmly rooted, there arises no need for comparison, no fear of difference. True faith stands unshaken in the presence of another’s conviction.

[CaseyKool @KurienCK]

@kunalpurohit People like these must be thrown in jail no questions asked. This nonsense is fuelled by the ignorant and illiterate party that pushes for division on religious lines. Ease of doing business it seems 🤨

[CaseyKool @KurienCK]

@catale7a Seriously and people are ok with this?
