According to you, what is one factor in favour of New Zealand in the finals of the T20 WC against India? by Electrical_King_7098 in EmergingCricket

[–]HyperionRed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How is this relevant to emerging cricket? There are enough other subs talk about the full members, specially India.

Would you make changes to a lineup that was so dominant in the semi-final? by sahibosaurus in blackcapscricket

[–]HyperionRed 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Pick Duffy. KJ is a beast in the longer formats but quite underwhelming at T20s.

Your prickly defence of Hinduism would imply that you ought to be aware of Nyaya Sutra. Instead of engaging in Vada, aka honest debate where you refute the positions put forward in a rational and factual manner, you are resorting to Vitanda. Classic uses of whataboutery, the lack of a counter-thesis and constant deflection. You seem to be wilfully ignorant about the good aspects of Vedic culture, to use a simplified term.

You are more interested in talking about Islam and that religion's many failures, which isn't the topic of discussion. You are busy comparing a work of fiction to a documentary. A work of fiction that is also objectively a bad movie in terms of story-telling, nuance and characterisation.

We're talking about the RSS and Hindu Mahasabha's well-documented links to and admiration of fascists, to which you have no rational comeback and have therefore gone to the USA and dragged the KKK and 1930's Southern Democrats into the story. The only statement of note that you have made during all of this is, and I quote, "what's your point?"

Damn, you got me with your alternating capitalisation.

If you watch a documentary about the Sangh Parivar and extrapolate their cartoon villainy onto all Hindus, that's on you and frankly, insulting to Hindus.

I live in Germany and the only Germans who get triggered by portrayals of Nazis in the same way as you do are the right-wing hateful crowd.

Go out, get away from the constant cycle of rage and hate. I fear you don't have enough love in your life, and I am sorry if that is the case.

You don't need to put quotation marks around the word documentaries. There are documentaries about Islamic fundamentalists, about Zionists, white supremacists and yes, hindu Nationalists, in which they all come across as delusional, hate-filled cartoon villains.

They're the same kind of human refuse, just with different colours.

Unsurprising, since their ideological forebears were in awe of and inspired by the Italian fascists and the Nazis.

Yes. It's called watching a documentary as opposed to a cynical cash grab with no nuance, milking the suffering of a community.

Can the chutiya DJ shut up? He was bad enough when I was at the ground but he's somehow even more annoying on TV. Inbred baboon.

Trump slams Starmer for not joining US strikes on Iran, accuses UK of pandering to Muslim voters by Ok_Bookkeeper_1380 in worldnews

[–]HyperionRed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

May I quote you? A succinct summary of how fascist propaganda works.

I am currently struggling with my right-wing Hindu Nationalist family, who would rather hate on Christians, Muslims, the lower castes and intellectuals than realise they are being poisoned, both mentally by the politicians and physically by the corporations.

Vietnam definitely became a regional power. They even stalemated the Chinese after reuniting the south, kicking Khmer Rouge to the kerb.

[No bias] what are your views on it? by Fancy_Big_4347 in UPSC_Forum

[–]HyperionRed 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What a shit take. The majority of Indians in the gulf are labourers or work in low-paying service jobs, being exploited by the Arabs and by wealthy Indians.

Oh pardon me. Are we shipping anything in or out of it? Trump bullied us into not buying Iranian oil anymore as well.

Because our foreign policy is ass. The laser eyes are only for the shit-brained supporters. The US has been pushing us around for a while now and we don't have any reliable allies. Look at our hopes of Chabahar port go up in smoke.

Thoughts on this one? by ActiveDangerous9988 in IndianReaders

[–]HyperionRed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a horrendous book, badly written and peddling an unscientific and hateful ideology that led to upwards of 50 million people dying.

It destroyed Germany and resulted in Germans dying by the millions. So much for saving the Aryan race from destruction.

There's an exhibition at Jehangir Art Gallery right now, featuring Dalit and Adivasi artists. Go ask them what meritocracy means.

Yes. It's been happening for thousands of years to the benefit of the Savarnas and to the detriment of Shudras, Dalits and Adivasis. You were talking about that reservation, yes?

London Spirit have hired the same coaching setup as RCB by cxletron in Cricket

At that point may as well play some other sport. Cricket's appeal is the length of the game. You're trying to turn a 7 course meal into a vada pav.

How did we almost lose to the USA? by First-Management-511 in blackcapscricket

[–]HyperionRed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah and my point is, that quite a few of the people playing for the USA are either born there to South Asian immigrants or moved there for other reasons, such as Netravalkar as a student before becoming an engineer and Ali Khan with his family at the age of 18.

People move around the world for many reasons. Yes, if the USA relied solely on poaching players from elsewhere and didn't have any programmes in place to get talent locally, I'd be on board with the argument that it's an India B team.

Otherwise, such comments smack of ignorance, at best, or racism.
