@Shudraism @vikramhegde I suppose this argument would involve considering the different states in India before / during the Raj, as separate countries. The negotiations in acceding to the Union, which could be considered masterful on one hand, could also been seen as strong-arming on the other...
@yehlog Also the whole argument about the violence being by anti-CAA protesters to get Trump's attention. Like why would anyone make an appeal to that Islamophone?
anyone who's saying the common hindu has been radicalized beyond repair is not right. islamophobia and even mutual suspicion has been the norm in the country for decades, maybe centuries. do not let them make you believe the society is beyond repair. in spite of everything.
@gauravpramanik@IndianPrism This is insane. Legit did not even know. It does not show up on my TL, and I've been trying to follow a lot of handles on NE affairs.
some accounts here are hell bent on trying to prove that muslims in india are absolutely alone with absolutely no allies. i really do not understand these attempts especially because these commentators do not present us with any viable solution or practical way out.
@AsimAli6 If it was a bald eagle, I'd say it was some American making contact. But we don't have bald eagles in India right? Also, eagles can be aggressive, it hasn't tried to scratch you or anything? Just...hitting?
@ambedkarite09 That's good. Didn't follow Jharkhand elections before the latest LS and Assembly elections. But with all the BJP-enabled industrialists coming to grab land and forests, I've been more attentive. Not to mention NRC could go very badly in a tribal-dominated state w/ less docs.
