@Jsize18 Basically what we got today

[Jawhar Sircar @jawharsircar]

Dharmendra Pradhan's son
is studying in America, so did Nirmala's and Jyotiraditya.

Piyush Goyal's son is studying in Singapore, Anurag Thakur's son is studying in Canada.

S. Jaishankar's son is studying in the UK & even Smriti Irani (who hardly studied) sent son to study there.

Nishikant Dubey's son studied in Scotland

So why would these people bother about NEET paper leak
or CBSE scam or communal distortion of history by NCERT?

Or care about your children getting pushed around in trains and buses or even committing suicide?

Government of Hypocrites from Top to Bottom!!

[Shantanu @shaandelhite]

Sandeep Chaudhary — A journalist was arrested just bcz he showed ‘Namak-roti’ being served in a school in UP. Why the journalist who called Vedant a Pakistani should not be arrested?

BJP spokes — No answer

Ashok Shrivastava should not be let go away, he must be arrested.

[Rajdeep Sardesai @sardesairajdeep]

IMPORTANT: Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh (Dera Sacha Sauda chief) granted parole once again, this time for 30 days. It’s the 16th time he has been out on parole since his conviction in August 2017.
He is serving a 20-year sentence for rape. Meanwhile likes of Umar Khaled have stayed in jail for almost 6 years without even a trial commencing. Yeh hai JUSTICE system: Wonder what our Lordships would pontificate on next! 🙏

[Mohammed Zubair @zoo_bear]

A Brahmin student being called a 'Pakistani' by Modi Bhakts shocked and rightfully hurt many people across ideological lines, including several from the Right Wing itself. Because suddenly, people realised how dehumanising that label is.
But for years now, countless Indian Muslims especially those who speak up or question the government or criticise the PM are casually branded 'Pakistanis' or 'Bangladeshis' or a 'Rohingya'.
Our loyalty is questioned, our identity is regularly mocked, our citizenship treated as conditional.
And the society has normalised it so much that most people don’t even react anymore.
An insult that rightfully outraged people when used against a Brahmin student is thrown at Muslims every single day without guilt or an outrage, or without any consequences. No Indian should have to constantly prove they belong to their own country.
All thanks to the Media and the Politicians for Normalising this Hate against Indian Muslims.

@smitaprakash @Aunindyo2023 hey just a reminder that you're a disgraceful sellout, won't say journalist bec labeling you a journalist might be dangerous for future students of journalism 🙏

[Nehr_who? @Nher_who]

This is exactly what Pope Leo XIV is fighting against.

This country wants to build data centers owned by foreigners.

[Alex Veremeyenko @alex_verem]

Let me trace the timeline here because nobody's connecting it.

Step 1: Scrape the entire internet. Every book, every article, every conversation, every piece of art, every forum post. Do it without asking. Do it without paying.

Step 2: Train a model on all of it. Call it "artificial intelligence."

Step 3: Go to BlackRock's Infrastructure Summit and announce: "We see a future where intelligence is a utility, like electricity or water, and people buy it from us on a meter."

Step 3 is where you sell people's own knowledge back to them. On a meter.

They took the collective output of human thought, compressed it into a model, and now they want to charge you by the token to access a version of what you and everyone you know already created.

One Reddit user put it perfectly: "They stole all this data from us, the people, our life's work, creativity, art, by devouring the internet and blowing through all copyright laws. Now they want to sell it back to us in the form of a utility."

Imagine if someone photocopied every book in the public library, burned the library down, and then opened a subscription service for the copies.

That's the metered intelligence business model.

And they're pitching it to infrastructure investors as though they invented water.

[Abhisar Sharma @abhisar_sharma]

One journalist @HelleLyngSvends compares the Indian media to Saudi Arabia and Cuba, and all hell breaks loose. Let me go one step further. Our media — the Godi media — is worse than Radio Rwanda. We have anchors against whom cases related to inciting riots have been registered. We have an anchor who actually did a show on “15 types of Jihad” based on a WhatsApp forward.

Former Chief Justice of India Bobde had said during the Tablighi Jamaat case that our media had misused the freedom of expression. The entire propaganda surrounding Tablighi Jamaat was false — built on lies — and that is what our media has become: a riot-mongering machine and a sycophant of the BJP.

The problem is that we live in a country where the industrialists who own most television channels and the BJP appear to have reached an understanding that no serious questions will be asked of the BJP or the Prime Minister. Anybody questioning the BJP is labelled anti-national.

This is the reality of modern India under BJP. So let us accept the fact that the press in India is in an abysmal condition and freedom of expression is in the doldrums. Let us also not forget that India ranks 157th when it comes to press freedom.

Raids are conducted against NDTV and once the ownership changes hands all the cases are withdrawn . HW news , Newsclick, Quint is raided. Digital platforms are removed without any transparency and the Govt has to eat humble pie in the court( 4PM news network) Courts pass ex parte orders based on the application of an industrialist and all shows are ordered to be removed. You call this freedom of press ? Are you aware of what the broadcast bill is and what it aims to achieve? Stop this charade and stop looking for conspiracy theories everytime someone's asks Modi ji a question.

[Rants&Roasts @Sydusm]

Supreme justice of India. Two news, one after the other.

[वरुण 🇮🇳 @varungrover]

And it becomes amply clear why the IAS lobby wants to get rid of RTI.

It’s not the politicians but the bureaucrats who stand to gain the most by the watering down or removal of acts like RTI - a full carte blanche to go back to 1980s style corruption with no checks or inquiry.

[Apollo @jeanxvaljean]

You open your TL and watch the Indian heat map turn an ugly, blistering red. Then you scroll down a few tweets and see AI data centres in Andhra Pradesh... Over 10,000 trees will be butchered in Andaman and Nicobar islands... Despair is not the word.

[Duck 🪿 🇮🇳 @DuckKiBaat]

BJP goons thrashed TMC workers in front of central forces who just stood by as mute spectators.

And this is what @ECISVEEP calls a ‘free and fair’ election. 😡

घटियापन की सारी हदें कैसे पार कर सकते हैं इस आदमी से बढ़िया कोई नहीं दिखा सकता।

हर रोज इतने रेप होते हैं, लेकिन मजाल है कोई सख्त कानून आया हो😡😡

[Amit Schandillia @Schandillia]

Why are so many Indians suddenly taking ungodly offense at being told that India is very hot right now? Like, does climate have a Hindutva angle now? Or has it become somehow unpatriotic? What’s the deal here?

[Sakshi Narula @mssakshinarula]

You want people to see India differently, you will need to take some radical steps. There is only one way to stop this, elect a government that focuses entirely on science, human development and empowers women. Take the practice of religion off the streets in India. Practice it in your homes and places of worship. This is not how humans are supposed to live. Absolute filth.
