I watched this video of PM Modi ask in his trademark patronising-cringe style
"how can our daughters speak such language?"
Sir, they are not 'your' daughters.
People are not your 'children'.
You are not the father of this nation.
Your job is governance and you are failing.
Modi and @DelhiPolice are supremely proud that they broke the will of a 15-year-old girl. I did find her profanity-laced talk disgusting, but nothing should disgust one more than Modi and the Indian police.
Fact-checker @zoo_bear is begging for donations. I will make sure he gets his entire year’s requirements.
All he has to do is to fact-check publicly whether what Nupur said is derived from Sunan an-Nasa'i 3378; Vol. 4, B 26, Hadith 3380.
Take the challenge, Zubair. "Be a man."
Capitalism did not begin in a boardroom. Voluntary exchange, repeated across generations, built the fairs, the credit networks, the double-entry books that Luca Pacioli codified in 1494. Nobody planned this. That's the whole point.
The story you learned in school runs backwards. You were taught that greedy factory owners exploited children until noble legislators rescued them in 1833. What actually happened: the Industrial Revolution dragged English living standards up so fast that population doubled between 1750 and 1850 because people stopped dying. Wages rose. Life expectancy rose. The factory that horrifies the modern reader was an upgrade from a life of starving on a tenant farm at the mercy of the harvest. Children worked because their families were poor, and the factory made those families less poor. The reformers arrived after the market had already done the heavy lifting, then took credit for the sunrise.
Real capitalism needs sound money, and here is where the tragedy sharpens. Between 1815 and 1914, under a classical gold standard, prices in Britain fell gently while output exploded. You could save a coin and expect it to buy more later. That world died in stages: 1914, when governments suspended gold to print war; 1933, when Roosevelt confiscated citizens' gold at $20.67 an ounce then revalued it to $35; 1971, when Nixon closed the window entirely and handed us the pure fiat regime you live under now.
What followed was corporatism wearing capitalism's coat. When the Federal Reserve can conjure trillions and hand them to the banks and firms closest to the spigot, you no longer have a market allocating capital. You have a cartel allocating privilege. The 2008 bailouts were a monetary system doing exactly what a monetary system built on the printing press does.
When someone blames "unfettered capitalism" for the mess around you, ask them to point to the fetters.
The answer is to let go. Less regulation, no central bank, less tax, less government. Not more!
If you believe socialism works, why are you waiting? Redistribute your own wealth. Get a group of like-minded individuals and pool your wealth.
Create an online community where you all work and everyone pays their income into a pool which is evenly distributed.
What is stopping you from doing this and why are you insisting everyone in a jurisdiction participate before starting?
Someone give me the answers!
Clearly there are more people who recognize that India is a sinking Titanic. And Indians will keep emigrating. The situation in the West might be worsening but that in India is worsening far faster. The delta to emigrate from India is increasing.

Jind got a brand-new road overnight before PM Modi’s visit.
For ordinary citizens, broken roads are “under process.”
For VVIPs, the entire system suddenly discovers speed, funds and competence. 🤡
I just saw the most bizarre reel on Instagram. A minister threatens a reporter with a defamation case for asking a tough question.
Isn’t asking tough questions the whole point of journalism? Or should reporters stick to asking, “Minister, how do you like to eat your mangoes?”
Apparently the incest, throwing children off the walls of Troy, Trojan women taken as war trophies doesn’t disturb her. Neither does late Iron Age armour in a Bronze Age setting. Only Indians defending their country disturbs this quack.
Prabal Pratap, you’re our hero.
We, the people of India, salute you, young man.
You risked your career and showed the judiciary its place by breaking the norm, replacing “Your Honour” with “Mr. Judicial Servant.” You reminded them that they are servants of the Indian judiciary and the people of India. You did what the people of the Republic of India wanted to do. You represent the ongoing condition and sentiments of the 1.4 billion people of this country.
Thank you for your service.
Thank you, Prabal Pratap. 🙏🏻🫡🇮🇳
