@NilimDutta I’m all ears. Educate me. But if the goal is persuasion, it’s hard to get there by assuming moral superiority or dismissing others as ‘privilege.’ That framing shuts down the very conversation you seem to want.
@NilimDutta That is your perspective. It must be right because you know yourself best.
Why can’t we offer others the same courtesy and give them the benefit of doubt instead of calling them that they “reek of privilege”?
@NilimDutta Neither have I stopped you Sir. You called him out for his privilege. How is that okay?
I am all up for questioning the government. By no means is our government close to perfect.
@NilimDutta@mayukh_panja It’s funny how you flip the script and ask if tribals should not be on twitter. Nowhere in my tweet did I suggest that. In fact, your question implies that you believe the original poster should not be given a passport. Is that your intent?
@NilimDutta No, I’m saying let people share their experiences without calling them out for privilege when that is not the point of their tweet. Just like how you didn’t like my tweet, the original poster @mayukh_panja would not have liked your tweet. Are you saying he / I should not be on X?
@NilimDutta Only 2% of India’s 1.4 billion citizens are even on X. So your lecture on “privilege” actually reeks of privilege. A poor Adivasi may lack electricity, internet, or even a smartphone, while you enjoy enough leisure to post moral sermons here on someone’s unrelated experience :)

Sumthing is a magic square puzzle game. I loved magic squares as a kid and wanted to gamify the experience so others can share my love. Here is my take, built with Replit!

@malpani@deepigoyal@bhash@zomato He shared facts and his perspective on what would happen once additional regulation comes in.
One would expect you to counter it with your perspective on why he is wrong, instead of personal attacks!
2nm chip design in India — is probably the biggest achievement milestone of India’s Semi Journey.
Congratulations everyone involved in getting it thru ! 👏🏼👏🏼
While corruption at any level is bad, what differentiates India is not its corruption at the highest level (that exists every where), it’s the corruption at every level! It makes the system dysfunctional for the common man!
India lacks a functioning concept of conflict of interest in governance.
The father is pushing ethanol blending as aggressive national policy, while the son’s company reaps extraordinary profits after entering the ethanol sector.
In any mature democracy, the father would have stepped down the moment his son joined a business tied to his ministry, to simply avoid the appearance of impropriety.
Even if both are entirely honest, the optics are damning. Yet there is no uproar: the opposition stays silent since their own leaders’ companies benefit from the ethanol boom, and ordinary citizens who raise questions can simply be dismissed as oil-lobby trolls. A sad state of affairs!
