Aren't you guys tired of this country's mismanagement? Life is not supposed to be this difficult for citizens. It's not like this in other countries. Please stop defending the government.
Dowry killings didn't disappear. They just got educated. Earlier it was kerosene and a matchstick 'gas leak ho gaya, cooker fat gaya' and the case would close before the body turned cold. I have seen this in my own circle in Bihar. MILs executing it with such cold precision, no trembling hands, no guilt, no tears that meant anything. It was a system. It ran smoothly. Now those same women are educated, English speaking, socially presentable and the weapon has upgraded too. Now it's 'she was schizophrenic.' Now it's 'she had a drug problem.'
Different era, same blueprint, cleaner paperwork. Patriarchy didn't lose its volunteers. It just sent them to school.
The Indian middle class is so obsessed with buying their way out of government failures. Saaf pani gya. RO lelo. Light gayi, inverter lelo. Gas gayi. Induction lelo.
Kal ko ye desh chala jayega aur blinkit pe hi baithe honge.
I had a very academic crush on Gautam Bhatia throughout my law school. He was the first manifestation of my sapiosexual preferences.
Now the crush has transformed into 'professional inspiration' respectfully.
Thank you for paying attention to this matter.
Yes, I am a feminist.
No, I'm not happy that Ayatollah Khamenei is dead.
I am never happy when the imperialist forces kill. And I'm not naive enough to believe that the US and Israel are trying to empower Iranian women.
Down with imperialism. Down with capitalism.
Galgotia university is not an exception to the rest of the academic scene in the country, Prestigious universities have been dumbed down deliberately to foreclose the art of critical thinking, mediocrity reigns and dismisses standards of excellence, this is the result.
I think the gut reaction of us privileged folks when we see the suffering of others who are supposedly 'less lucky' (read: more oppressed) should not be gratefulness. So many of us are taught to be grateful. No. We should be angry. Of injustice.
