Watching Elon Musk this week has been a fascinating character study in the saviour complex of Western tech billionaires.
They arrive in your country selling you the future. Welcome them, and you’re a country that wants progress. Make them wait, and suddenly your people are victims who need rescuing from their own institutions by the chosen one.
It’s a pattern. When Thai rescuers didn’t use the mini-submarine Musk sent for the trapped boys, and diver Vernon Unsworth called the idea impractical, Musk attacked him as the “pedo guy.”
When Brazil’s Supreme Court ordered X to comply with its rulings, Musk called the judge a “dictator.”
The script rarely changes. Only the country does.
The colonial mindset isn’t always about wanting to rule a country. Sometimes it’s the assumption that you arrive as its saviour, and if the country doesn’t immediately recognise you as one, something must be wrong with the country.
Never forget how India’s so called 'liberal ecosystem' defended Tahir Hussain.
When Intelligence Bureau officer Ankit Sharma was murdered during the Delhi riots in 2020 and his body was recovered from a drain, the ecosystem did not stand with Ankit’s family.
It rushed to manufacture victimhood for the accused.
The likes of Rana Ayyub declared that Tahir had been arrested merely “because he’s a Hussain.” Others portrayed him as an innocent Muslim being framed by a vindictive Hindu-majoritarian state. Every uncomfortable fact was dismissed as propaganda. Every demand for justice was labelled communal.
Today, a Delhi court - not the BJP, not television anchors, not “WhatsApp University” - has convicted former AAP councillor Tahir Hussain of murder, kidnapping, promoting enmity and rioting in the killing of Ankit Sharma.
The mask has fallen.
For this ecosystem, the presumption of innocence is sacred when the accused suits its politics. But a murdered Hindu becomes an inconvenient footnote, his family’s grief erased because acknowledging his killers would destroy their preferred narrative of the Delhi riots.
They did not merely get the story wrong.
They attempted to reverse the roles of victim and perpetrator to turn a convicted murderer into a symbol of persecution and bury Ankit Sharma twice: once in a drain, and again beneath their propaganda.
Never forget the crime.
And never forget those who defended the criminal.
Oil deals with Russia at subsidized rates have largely benefited India as a country. The reason why the US doesn't want us to buy oil from Russia, while it imports Uranium from Russia, is that oil from the US doesn't have many takers across the globe. Anyone who says otherwise to sabotage our trade with Russia can be identified as a foreign agent acting against our economic interests.

Hello LIAR,
Holi was and IS a Hindu festival.
And Jahangir did NOT celebrate Holi.
In your article, you conflated Holi with a Persian festival that Mughals celebrated: Eid-I-Gulabi or Ab-e-Pashi.
This festival had NOTHING to do with Holi.
This was originally a Zoroastrian rain festival dedicated to Zoroastrian rain deity Tishtrya (Tir) celebrated by Persians. Muslims appropriated this festival and rededicated it to Khawaja Khizr. Unlike Holi, It was celebrated in the rainy month of Tir (June-July).
इतर राज्यांमध्ये शिवरायांच्या मूर्तीचे अनावरण असताना हमखास भाजपचे नेते दिसतात.
पण तेच काँग्रेस, राष्ट्रवादी, आप, बसपा अशा इतर कोणत्याच पक्षांचे नेते नाही दिसत.
Islamists Modus Operandi:
1. Declare your area as Muslim area
2. If Hindus pass, pelt stones, petrol bombs
3. Play victim when caught on video
4. Police acts, claim ‘provocation’
5. Run victimhood, Islamophobia campaign
6. Blame media, RSS, Modi for making you riot as ‘reaction’
7. When illegal ghettos, encroachments are demolished, omit ‘illegal’ part and claim Muslim houses are being targeted

When you take a guided tour in Hampi, every mandir's story ends the same way "And they came and destroyed it"
Jan 22nd 2024 is for the first time, current generation of Hindus can end the story with "And we revived it"
