It is somewhat fitting that in Sanghi Yuga Sita is forced to undergo the Agnipariksha before the Ramayana even starts.

[Rakesh Krishnan Simha @ByRakeshSimha]

This is Kriti Sanon. She will play Sita in Adipurush. Kriti might be a decent person in real life, but her dance routines in Bollywood movies are completely vulgar. Definitely the wrong person to play the role of the pious Sita who is considered mother by Hindus.

Swara has somehow turned Jauhar into a crime committed by its victims.

Jauhar occurred when military defeat, capture and enslavement appeared imminent. It was not a social command declaring that every rape survivor must die. Remove that coercive setting and you don’t defend women rather you place the besieged on trial while making the besieger disappear.

Here is the communal trick in Swara’s feminism where she asks why a female foetus should die because she “might be raped by a Muslim ruler.”

Khilji’s religion neither indicts today’s Muslims nor grants him immunity from history. As a Muslim woman, I refuse this emotional blackmail. My identity is not a shield for a dead conqueror.

Jauhar indicts the conditions created by conquest not rape survivors, not modern Muslims. Swara dragged Islam into the frame and is now using it to make the besieger disappear.

Alas, the American nativist grifter is not blessed with basic logic.

I remember seeing a post talking about how when people in tech do the "day in my life" thing, they obviously won't show the work they're doing in detail, so it comes off as their work time consisting only of drinking something.

You'd think sentient adults with jobs would get it.

honestly wild that internet hitlers think that indians are too assertive when the stereotype among other flavours of internet hitlers is that indians are too servile and can't think for themselves

also lmao at white people never talking back to indians

[SK Tedeschi @skedeschi]

"Be kind" is terrible advice. Better advice is "have integrity". Because sometimes doing the right thing means doing the hard thing, the brave thing, the unpopular thing. A healthy world, a healthy country and a healthy person is entirely dependent on integrity. Not kindness.

@nuhre_ I mean, we haven't had a mass effect since 2017, or a good mass effect game since 2012. I wonder what the legendary editions sales were like, because I still think that trilogy was peak bw

> He endured 12+ years of relentless attacks and mockery of his family.

I think it's important to note here that "his family" ruled India for over half a century. We aren't talking about randoms.
To be clear, he's right to oppose Modi. It's just a shame he's the alternative.

[eppy @epppyyy]

A lot of people are like, "He shouldn't be PM because he isn't a strong leader."

He marched across the entire country on foot. He endured 12+ years of relentless attacks and mockery of his family. He has exposed multiple scandals of the current regime.

But honestly, none of that is the most important part.

The most important thing is,
You can talk to him.

He is far more likely to listen, hold press conferences, answer questions, and be held accountable. There will never be a perfect Prime Minister. We don't need a perfect one.

We need an accountable one, someone who listens, acts, and can admit when they're wrong.

[MJay 🇪🇸🇧🇷🇺🇸🇨🇦 @SinhaleseSavage]

the whole "rigged for Argentina" online discourse is a great case study on how the general population is frighteningly easy to manipulate with simple propaganda. and how it's especially effective on the less educated, or "casuals"/"larpers"

[Swann Marcus @SwannMarcus89]

Let me give you major issues that hurt the Democrats

1. Anti-law enforcement progressive attitudes. This is incredibly toxic among men and the working class. The Democrats have lost multiple swing state elections entirely because they said stupid shit about cops in 2020. They might wind up losing Michigan over the same issue this year because El-Sayed gets extremely crotchety when questioned about his comments on this issue and doesn't seem capable of answering questions on law enforcement in a satisfactory manner. Not only are men generally pretty supportive of law and order (not to sound too chauvinistic, but I think this is partly due to men actually having a better understanding of the omnipresent risk of male violence than women have, since we see the threat from the inside), but a lot of men are - get this - employed in law enforcement, meaning in addition to progressives having bad crime policy, they are actively threatening high-paying male jobs. Which segues nicely into issue number 2.

2. Anti-productivity ideology, which actively costs men employment. The left-wing of the Democratic Party in particular is entirely about redistribution and is actively opposed to work. A strong majority of men and non-college voters don't like lazy douchebags who treat working an office job like hell on Earth. On top of that, the Democratic anti-productivity beliefs (they're much more NIMBY, much more anti-mining, much more anti-productivity of every sort) specifically costs men and the working class jobs. Why should a construction worker ever vote Democratic when the Democrats oppose letting anyone build anything anywhere? Why should someone who works in energy vote Democratic when the Democrats are increasingly opposed to all forms of energy production, since they're anti-oil and anti-nuclear and are also opposed to the mines we need to build solar panels and wind turbines?

As they've moved left, the Democrats have become increasingly hostile (often for no discernible reason) to specifically non-college male forms of employment and then they're shocked that specific demographic hates them

3. Inflation/unaffordability. Stemming from the above, the more progressive an area is the less a working person who doesn't have a trust fund can afford to live there. Even if a poor person voted Democratic at one time, I absolutely believe the Democrats lose voters because when someone moves from California to a far more affordable red state they suddenly look around and think "holy shit, why did the place I left suck so hard?" I honestly think this is part of why when people leave blue for red states, they generally don't make the red state more liberal. Tennessee's boomed for 20 years and has just gotten more conservative. If you move to suburban Nashville from the West Coast why would you ever choose to vote for the stagnation and unaffordability of the place you left?

All of these issues have gotten worse as the Democrats have moved left and that's why they have hemorrhaged working class and male support. It has nothing to do with Democrats not giving off manly vibes or being insufficiently hostile to trans people, you out-of-touch partisan dorks

[Spring Youth @MusingsOfYouth]

The uncontested presumption that any male w/ sexual desire is “inherently” reducing a woman to a piece of meat has done enormous dmg to society. This blindness to men’s inner emotional lives is entirely unacceptable. Anyone who thinks this way must be viciously alienated.

[Pribaris 🇲🇻🇺🇦 @Pribaris]

Modern society and Gen Z in particular is really so damn unromantic. Actually, it feels NEGATIVELY romantic at this point.

Romantic feelings for someone are now cast as dehumanizing, dirty, WRONG, like it's some sort of filthy animalistic *sin* to feel for someone

People calling Hasan retarded or politically illiterate for this take are themselves retarded.

Hasan isn't naive. He's completely aware of the situation Ukraine is in when it comes to a peace deal. He is concern-trolling you. He is a malicious actor who wants Russia to win.

"accountability" is almost always just a dogwhistle for suicide. you don't care than she apologized, you pinned the sins of an actor who laughed at a joke 7 fucking years ago on her, and you clearly celebrate the death of her passion. you are a malicious evil monster

[doomslayer @moodslayer95]

on some level, indian leftists know they have lost the people's mandate and will never forgive the indian voters for it. they spread anti indian racism in the same vein of how the french spread anti algerian and anti vietnamese racism when they lost their mandate there as well.

The most insidious lie of the DSA is "we just want to end the war through negotiations"

Since 2022 there were a dozen attempts to end the war by negotiations. All rebuffed by Putin every single time

The DSA wants Ukraine to surrender, but they are too cowardly to openly say it
