IMO, this Bishnoi gang is a Deep State asset and it will be used against India, the govt in power, and India's interests.

Using SM psyops and propaganda it is being linked with the Govt of India for sometime now. It's clear for everyone who can see without political or religious biases.

Their psyops are targetting Indian R/W and Modi supporters too cunningly, making them believe in it. And this is dangerous.

I feel this gang is going to be used to stir up trouble in India soon, for sure.

They may be used to target popular personalities that can upset Indians and divide us. And also be used to do terror acts internationally.

Then, GoI will be blamed using the long seeded propaganda which I think is high already in the mindspace of many Indians in the opposition and even Modi supporters.

And using that many western and other governments are going to be influenced by the DS to take actions against Indian economic and strategic interests.

This is both my strong hunch and a forewarning of things to come. Let's prepare. The first thing we need to do is ensure their psyops are defeated.

The GoI must take actions online by the way of messaging, and offline by the way of legal action, to ensure this psyops that's trying to link this gang with GoI in the minds of Indians is blunted.

Classic grammar mistake

[Chirag Barjatya @chiragbarjatya]

A friend owns a BMW M4 Competition in Mumbai, and he told me he can take that car to client meetings because clients shouldn’t know he owns an expensive car; otherwise, they don’t pay on time, thinking you already have enough money. This in Mumbai. I thought this was some Ajmer-like town thing only.

Gospel truth.

[STUNNER @Cr7Godbrand]

Marriages survived because men had the heart to endure women.

It lasted for generations because of MEN. Because of our emotional intelligence and our compassion for our wives.

Not because women were good partners. Because men learned to overlook a lot of stupid shit women do just to let peace reign.

Let's be real, women are NOT easy to live with.

They are not romantic. Their whole idea of romance is RECEIVING. What he bought for me, where he took me, what he did for me. Never what they give.

They are not funny. They are overly sensitive, they hate accountability, they hate saying sorry, they hate initiating sex with their own husbands, and they are controlling as hell. Stubborn and rebellious.

And that domestic violence you hear about in marriages? Most of it is STARTED by the wife. Pushing, slapping, throwing things, talking reckless, provoking until the man reacts. Then she wants to play victim.

Look at any relationship that doesn't have a man in it,it doesn't work.

Lesbians? Highest divorce rate. Highest abuse rate. Because there is no man there to tolerate their violence and their emotions. Two women together can't handle each other.

Female friendships? Even worse. Pure gossip, backbiting, jealousy, cutting each other off over the most childish things.

They will have 10 female friends by 2022. By 2026, only 2 are left. She has fought with ALL of them. Every single one is now an enemy.

But men are the problem.

The guy who created Squid Game lost eight teeth from stress while making Netflix billions. His cut of the upside was zero dollars.

That's the deal Netflix gives everyone. They pay around 110% of your budget upfront, take the IP, and keep every dollar your hit earns for the rest of time. Your show can be the biggest thing on the planet and you get the same check as if it flopped.

Ben Affleck and Matt Damon just broke that deal.

Their studio, Artists Equity, sold The Rip to Netflix in January with a clause Netflix had never accepted before. They took less money upfront in exchange for a bonus if the movie performed in its first 90 days. It pulled 112 million views in six weeks. The bonus hit. And they split it with the crew, so the grips and gaffers got checks because a streaming movie did numbers.

Animals, the one Netflix is promoting here, is the next film under that structure. Affleck wrote the lead for Damon, lost him to Nolan's Odyssey, and just played the part himself rather than delay the shoot. When you own the studio, recasting the lead is a decision you make in the mirror.

Netflix said yes because they had to. Every other studio is chasing franchises, so the handful of people who still make prestige adult dramas suddenly have pricing power. Affleck and Damon took the Silicon Valley trade, lower salary for equity, and ran it in the one industry that spent 15 years stripping equity out of talent deals.

Hollywood lost its backend when streaming killed box office points. These two are quietly rebuilding it.

Veteran actor Nana Patekar has passed away.

The Hindi film industry and Mumbai share an inseparable bond. When one speaks of Mumbai, it encompasses its theatre, its world of commercial cinema, and the middle and lower-middle classes striving daily to carve out their identity, from slums to chawls. Then came the working class that gradually faced ruin in this city and across the country; the rise of the underworld born out of that social despair; the period where communal harmony unraveled before our eyes; followed by the post-liberalization expansion of middle-class aspirations and the politics swirling around it all. Through every such era, Nana Patekar made his presence felt, sometimes on stage, sometimes on screen. From ‘Hamidabai Chi Kothi’ to ‘Parinda’, ‘Krantiveer’, ‘Ab Tak Chhappan’, and all the way to ‘Natasamrat’, Nana remained ever-present. Across each phase, he brought to life, whether on the screen or the stage, the common man living with persistent inner turmoil.

Anger, humiliation, powerlessness, despair, revulsion toward immorality, disillusionment with the system, and class struggle constantly simmer within the mind of the common man. It spills over only occasionally through petty arguments or domestic turmoil. Otherwise, it stays bottled up inside. Watching Nana perform felt like looking into this emotional pressure cooker of ordinary lives. When Nana, or the 'Angry Young Man' Amitabh Bachchan, confronted these realities on screen, they vented the steam trapped within the human psyche. As I often say, just as singers and composers like Lata didi, Asha tai, Kishore Kumar, and Rafi sahab, along with filmmakers, playwrights, directors, and artists, entertained Indian minds for at least 60 to 70 years, figures like Nana and Bachchan Sahab powerfully released that inner steam on screen. Had they not done so, chaos might have erupted in this country every month.

Watching Nana act always reminded me of Hollywood's Morgan Freeman. Neither fit the conventional type of Bollywood or Hollywood actors of their times in terms of looks or persona. Watching Morgan Freeman, one often feels this is a man who has absorbed wisdom, patience, and a quiet acceptance of things as they are over time. With Nana's acting, however, I sensed fury, restlessness, and a deeply entrenched despair. Freeman represents a man who seems to have seen it all; Nana represents a man who has endured too much and can take no more. These are two opposite ends of the human spectrum. Because Nana could bring that second extreme to the screen with raw authenticity, he was a truly great artist.

In the 2000s, polished, fair, and conventional leading men began making way for story-driven cinema, ushering in an era of character actors who could carry a narrative and draw audiences on merit. Nana was undoubtedly the pioneer of this era. The prominence that character actors enjoy today was paved by Nana.

Yet, despite all this, he was fiercely individualistic, spoke his mind without filter, and was outspoken (though it hardly suits me to call anyone outspoken; be that as it may). Because of this, even when producers and directors wished to cast him, they often hesitated. Did this hurt Nana? One cannot say; he remained indifferent. But it certainly deprived Hindi cinema and its audience. While Nawazuddin Siddiqui and the late Irrfan Khan were undoubtedly brilliant performers, one wonders whether they and others like them would have found those same opportunities had Nana been willing to compromise. Moreover, Nana was not confined to aggressive or intense roles, through films like ‘Welcome’, he demonstrated to the world that he could handle comedy with equal prowess.
