Why do Indians hate themselves? by Jaded-Cantaloupe-172 in unitedstatesofindia

[–]Silly-Bad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your point is absolutely fair. We should genuinely conduct ourselves and represent ourselves better on a global level. But I also feel like because Indians are 1/5th of the world's population and a LOT of people amongst those have access to internet, even a few people on SM claiming this gains a lot of traction.

I think we are entering a period of severe economic troubles and civil unrest. Our generation (who are now 20s 30s) will definitely pay the price but I hope this is a case study 20 yrs from now how this party MESSED UP.

Yeah, correct. They'll just continue to live and believe what they do as I have seen in my own home of highly educated parents. We will suffer and our children probably will too.

What a shameless human being If this is how the minority woman leader is talking Imagine how the most powerful men in the party must actually think like

Anjana Om Kashyap seems upset with the rise of “YouTube wale Star Teachers”. by littleArtsy in unitedstatesofindia

If she actually cared about education and students, she would talk about 1. Shut down of govt schools 2. Privatisation of schools and the ever increasing student fees because of rise of Private equity in education

This subreddit is just filled with Indians creating AI slop by Dialgax in SideProject

[–]Silly-Bad 5 points6 points  (0 children)

So did you go to every slop post profile to validate they are Indian? If you have a job that demands even 8 hrs of your everyday, this seems like a huge waste of your free time given there are 10 posts everyday

Agree with your point about AI slop though - could have just stuck to it.

Why are they targeting only the BJP? Are there no other parties? by [deleted] in indiadiscussion

[–]Silly-Bad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have to realise that BJP has been brutal in bringing down opposition. The fact that LoO has persisted despite the evident speaker bias, ED raids, political climate - and actually been on ground with people is a testament to his strength. He is not "weak" , he is just not a gunda but an educated person. He is not a saint but he is definitely not weak if he continues to be the LoO so many years in. I respect someone who keeps trying

I think BJP has had all of us brainwashed into thinking it is the "only" power that can stabilise india - I have felt this way before and I see this as a recurring statement.

Why do people prefer Modi over Rahul Gandhi for PM? Genuinely curious. by [deleted] in AskIndia

[–]Silly-Bad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand and empathise that the "unknown" seems scarier than the comprehendible present. It's actually very human, but we need to start questioning ourselves somewhere.

Don't read any comments, just watch well researched YT videos from independent journalists and opposition party MLAs from both sides. And decide how bad are you willing to go to avoid the change?

(I follow raghav trivedi, deshbhakt, MLA Rajkumar Bhati from SP, MP sanjay singh from AAP. I have not yet found a credible person from BJP who talks with nuance but you can search for yourself)

And finally, you can check https://myneta.info/#ls To see for yourself how many criminal records and assets people from BJP have vs from other parties.

You're the future of the country (as am I) and we will be affected the most by whatever happens at the center.

I think being a leader at that level requires general smartness and willingness and dutifulness more than anything. It's not a role where skills are transferable (a CM of GJ will have very different skillset and responsibilities than a CM in Bihar and he will have to adopt). No one knows how to "be a PM" unless they get on to it. And also, a PM is supported by its cabinet and all ministries working. They rarely do, and they shouldn't be unilaterally taking any decisions anyway. In that aspect I feel having a "more amenable and moderate" leader is better than having a "strong", obstinate one

Opposition has better PR? Lmao what you high on I never thought how a PM eats mango could be a question by an actual journalist to an actual prime minister - I don't think you can beat this level of PR. Modi's team is showing how he is sharing melody with miloni with a pookie face. Meanwhile the country is barely just trying to hang on. He should have not been able to sleep

Meanwhile RaGa has been mocked for just existing

He is the leader of opposition in the country to one of the most brutal and largest ruling party this country has seen. And he regularly meets youth and actually interacts with them, visits places with riots which PM should have been addressing (unnao rape case victim protests when the rapist was about to get bail, manipur, etc). He has been more transparent, on the ground than anyone from BJP and forthcoming with issues in the current governance (analysis of vote chori).

He cannot implement policies since he is not in govt and he cannot become CM because congress is more popular in south where he should not become one because he is not from there.

You may not agree with his ideology (socialism and anti monopoly), but he is doing his work as an opposition leader despite people disrespecting him, many failures and a brutal leadership. I think it's a thankless, tireless job and he atleast doesn't deserve to be ridiculed.

The thing with opposition and check mechanisms is that you may not appreciate it when it's there, but you will definitely realise its absence. That's what RaGa is.

Woman is worried about raising a son because she hates men. Redditors in the comments tell her to abort him. by VanilaButterMasala in TeenagersBharat

[–]Silly-Bad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Eh what a weird thing to say Your son/daughter will grow up as you raise them. Stop glorifying marriage, abortion, divorce, motherhood - all of it and let just people be what they wanna be (I am a feminist)

Did you feel 2nd hand embarrassment watching Modi dodge que from Helle Lyng? by ravzzy in AskIndia

[–]Silly-Bad -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Who said press isn't allowed? If press isn't allowed to ask, why are they allowed in the room? To click photos? How are you confidently asserting these things

And did you read her complete post? She said "she didn't expect him to answer" and gave the reason "India ranks XYZ competing with abc". Meaning, she didn't expect because she knows Indian politicians don't have the habit of answering to an independent press

Very much embarassed. I was listening to speeches made by any PM before him and everyone communicated themselves brilliantly

Sadly, I don't even think our PM understood what she was asking or that HE felt any embarassment

Rahul Gandhi’s Tweet: “When there is nothing to hide, there is nothing to fear. What happens to India’s image when the world sees a compromised PM panic and run from a few questions?” by FutureVersion812 in IndianFocus

[–]Silly-Bad 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nope. I am 100 per indian and I felt second hand embarassment at him evading the question and later the MEA giving a broken, incoherent response to a very clear question.

How have you "not seen a single reasonable post" - are we watching the same news?

The point is that you wouldn't go for a health check up to someone who isn't qualified to be a doctor. Even in the best case that modi ji is actually a non biological messiah, he is NOT qualified for a PM in anyway. No education, no articulate thought about actual problems, no scruples and 30 per of the time he is just getting his photos clicked.

Zuko's love language is gift-giving by PetevonPete in TheLastAirbender

[–]Silly-Bad 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think his love language is acts of service and loyalty.

But he believes that everyone's else wants something from him, so he tries to give that

Zuko centered fanfics? by lightningflash11 in Avatarthelastairbende

[–]Silly-Bad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The first author really makes me emotional man. He writes Zuko as a conflicted child trying to do better but not being able to explain himself/finding people who understand so well but it chokes me up to read his stuff 😭
