Well, you tried, and that dude beat you up and you didn't even speak up out of fear of being called islamophobic.

In similar vein, my Muslim friend once sent me something disparaging about Karan Johar, a gay man, being at an RSS event. And I said the RSS is pretty pro LGBT. She called it "pink washing". While simultaneously liking positive posts about the Taliban and Iran....

At least 5 Indian cos deliver groceries in 10 min, but only ISKCON can deliver good meals? Egg is the tastiest + most nutritious thing kids of this econ strata can have regularly if served in school. For my tax $, better eggs in schools than ladli behen dole..

Hindu trads will whine and place all the ills of Hindu Samaaj on Mlecchas, Brahmo's, Arya Samaajis, Modern Hindus etc etc but when Hindu samaaj gives them a once in century mandate to do something truly constructive for civilization, they start stealing temple gold in Ayodhya :)

[Sudhanidhi Bandyopadhyay @SudhanidhiB]

ISCKON will have to improvise on the Mid Day Meal thing. This is a school where parents are also involved. Saying we will serve Soyabean instead of Eggs will only trigger others & create unnecessary problems.

Party needs surgery before cancer in some ministries and states metastasizes nationally.
Return of the barbarian horde to the halls of Dilli just because loyalists were not punished for corruption/incompetence will be a tragedy for India.

IE report.

As Ujjain undergoes one of the most ambitious urban transformations seen in a Tier-2 Indian city with glittering new roads, highways, tourism infrastructure, commercial development and large-scale changes in land use., the members of the Chief Minister's extended family acquired hundreds of acres of land in and around areas benefiting from this transformation.

It shouldn't be this way but massive urban transformation and infrastructure build-outs in the hinterland often happen when the personal incentives of ruling elites are aligned with development. When leaders, their associates or local power structures stand to benefit , projects move faster, approvals get signed and infrastructure gets built. via @IndianExpress

The orgs that have been pushing these bills over the last several years insist that caste discrimination is pervasive in the diaspora, and yet they've failed to produce a single robust empirical study demonstrating as much. In fact, what few studies we do have indicate that it is a minor issue among first gen immigrants, and that caste largely loses its salience among the second gen. All parties also acknowledge that discrimination on the basis of caste is covered under existing law.

So then what's the purpose of these laws? I think there are two big ones:

First: the existence of such laws strengthens the narrative that the Hindu diaspora is rife with casteism, a POV grounded in a particular ideology (Indian leftism, which in turn draws from the missionary critique of "Hinduism") that sees Hinduism as inextricable from caste and casteism. This is why the lack of empirical data has not historically been an impediment to activist groups pushing for these laws. It's never been about addressing actual discrimination.

Second: if you have laws on the books that ban caste discrimination, then it creates a demand for experts who can define it, teach people what it is, and train ppl to identify it. This creates the administrative machinery for these same activist groups to create and reify social categories that currently have no salience among diaspora Hindus. Through education, training, and legal codification, they can effectively create caste consciousness among Hindus where it does not exist.

How come not a single INDI Alliance Party realised that the best way to defeat Narendra Modi is to provide great governance in the states that they rule and take it forward from there after people realise that they are actually capable of improving the lives of the people?

[Meghan McCain @MeghanMcCain]

I've never seen such despicable bigotry towards Hinduism as what I see directed towards my friend @TulsiGabbard - it's absolutely abhorrent and if she were a democrat none of this would be happening.

She is the most independent minded, free thinking politician in America today. Full Stop. Which is why she can't be bought and is a threat to the establishment and deep state - this is why places like the Washington post are trying to hurt her.

I wish everyone knew Tulsi the way I do. She loves America and would give her life defending our values and freedom. She is kind, sweet, generous with her time, prays for you when you need it, selfless, incredible with my children and the kind of friend I can call at 2am in an emergency and would show up for you. The way strangers respond to her in person is not like normal politicians, they want to know her and feel safe opening up to her.

I am just so exhausted with the baseless slander directed at her. We all have different backgrounds that should be celebrate and not demonized.

I for one hope she runs for President in 2028.

[Meghan McCain @MeghanMcCain]

What absolute unpatriotic vile trash this attack on @TulsiGabbard is. They wont cover her releases on Fauci or bio labs - both things that threaten the safety and wellbeing of the American people, but spend time and space vomiting this washed up nonsense anti-Hindu bigoted crap.

[Kanwal Sibal @KanwalSibal]

This is an article laced with political biases.

The writer talks of ideological cross overs between Zionism and Hindutva.

Hindutva has not sought a historical homeland for Hindus, occupied land and expelled sitting populations, expanded settlements on occupied land, expanded the country’s borders, bombed civilians, razed urban areas to the ground etc

Actually, much of this applies to Pakistan.

Hindutva, unlike Zionism, considers that everyone living in India is a Hindu, irrespective of whatever religion, culture, language etc.

Hindu assertiveness and opposition to appeasement of Muslims has very different roots.

Many in India are opposed to Hindutva, but for those sitting in the West and promoting western narratives on Hindutva , an insidious way to de- legitimise the assertion of Hindu identity is to equate it with Zionism.

As for stonewalling the dialogue with Pakistan now past its due date, the writer should tell us why he thinks Pakistan has shed its deep seated hostility towards India, definitively turned its back on jihadi terrorism and Field Marshal Munir now is ready for a genuine dialogue with India.

Why do leftists claim to fight for the dignity of lower castes/classes against the rapacious capitalist elites while simultaneously mocking them for their cultural, social, and artistic "unsophistication"?🤔

Commentary on Urdu & Punjabi by linguists:

"Urdu is slavishly imitative, the Mongoloid vice of catamites (male sweet-hearts) has been shamelessly glorified in Urdu literature which never cares to look to romances of Indian soil such as Hir & Ranjha" "Punjabi is homely & honest"

[Soumik Sarkar @sarkar28922]

The Finance Minister of West Bengal, Honorable @swapan55, has given a clear message that the claim that Muslims and Bengali Hindus have always lived with a sense of brotherhood and that religion never caused any problem between them is completely false.
Muslims and Hindus are never one nation.

As for example, in 1905, when Lord Curzon proposed the partition of Bengal province to create a Muslim province in order to curtail the power of Bengali Hindus, no Muslim opposed it back then. Instead, they unanimously supported the Partitioning of Bengal.

However, despite being a minority, the entire Bengali Hindu population and Bengali intellectuals consistently protested against the Partition of Bengal and built public opinion against the British.

Therefore, Bengali Hindus have always thought of the country and the nation, whereas Muslims have only thought of Islam. Thus, even though Muslims speak the Bengali language, as long as they believe in Islam, we should not establish brotherhood with them. Because to them, Islam comes first.

In this context, Rabindranath Tagore sang a song - “Banglar mati, Banglar jol, Banglar bayu, Banglar phol, ek hok ek hok ek hok he bhogoban” (Let the soil of Bengal, the water of Bengal, the air of Bengal, and the fruit of Bengal be one, be one, be one, Oh Lord).

In response, the Mullas of East Bengal composed another song, hurling immense abuse at Rabindranath -
“Banglar mati, Banglar pani, khoda tomar meherbani. Bhag kor bhag kor bhag kor he rohman” (The soil of Bengal, the water of Bengal, are your blessings, Oh Khoda. Divide it, divide it, divide it, Oh Rahman).

Мне нравится этот тренд, мужчины наконец-то осознали что мужчина должен быть скромным и благочестивым. Единственное что хотелось бы добавить: выставлять напоказ жилистые накачанные руки всё-же слишком вызывающе
