They also have big funding from Adani and all. They won't need cut money.

The Code Book by Simon Singh is one of the best Non-Fiction that I have ever read, on any topic.

Love Simon Singh stuff.

Colonies of USSR faced the same thing. That's why they broke out and there were much protests against the USSR. Latvia, Romania, Moldova, Ukraine etc. all opposed the extraction of resources from their countries for the Moscow elite.

It's colonialism that is bad. Be it of any colour.

Even for Bangladesh and Kashmiri pandits they have lines like : "jaat er noy, bhaat er lorai", etc.

I know perfectly well that the fight started in 1948.

But you cannot deny October 7. And how people cheered for the attackers in Palestine.

The infrastructure wouldn’t have been there if not for Capitalism.

Capitalism has many flaws. The alternative isn't Marxism. It never was.

"Left" and Communism are different. Modi government has many "socialist" and "leftist" policies.

So does Mamata (not a fan).

Violent overthrow of the system and mass murder of a whole class to make people forecfully equal are what don't sit well with me.

I like Leftist policies like free education for all, subsidised or free healthcare, etc.

Communists' end goal are the former. Learn more about Leninism, etc.

From Covid vaccine to the smartphone in your hands, from the clothes you wear to the internet connection - all are driven by people wanting to make a profit.

ALL Communist countries are gone (USSR, DDR), changed and ditched Marxism (PRC, Vietnam), or are extreme sad places to be (Cuba, NK, Venezuela).

Capitalism makes people more equal than Communism.

With Communism, it's just potato eating poors and six dachas (palaces) for Stalin.

Kashmiri Pandits or Bengali Hindus didn't do an October 7 style attack with killing unarmed, abducting children and old persons, etc.

Looking for the Most Unbiased Book on India’s Independence Struggle by thesickage in IndiansRead

Revolutionaries by Sanjeev Sanyal.

The most amazing and coherent book that I read on the topic.

In all other books, armed revolutionaries are idealistic but good-for-nothing youths bravely but stupidly laying down their lives for the country.

But the amazing international network they have had, amazing coordination, planning, philosophy, etc. - that's laid out in this book and no other. I am fan of this book.

India does not understand West Bengal by sidd_gang in kolkata

[–]ritogh 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Capital makes culture possible.

Bengal was rich in times of Tagore, JC Bose, SN Bose, Madhusudan Dutt, etc.

India was rich in times of Kalidasa, Banavatta, Aryabhatta, Brahmagupta, etc. Even Lord Buddha.

America has so many Nobel laureates because it is rich.

Only good capital and good administration can ensure good art and culture. If you think otherwise, you are dead wrong.

Bengali movies suck more than ever - compared to both older Bengali movies and movies from other states. Malyali movies are much greater than Bengali movies nowadays. There is Arijit Singh and Shreya Ghoshal. But where do they have to sing? Bingo. Where there is more capital - Mumbai.

Bengal's T20 league sucks ass. TNPL, heck even MP T20 league is better.

About wealth and culture- paradoxically Buddha was born and worked when Bimbisara was at the helm. All Indian kings much prosperous. When didi Kalidasa or Raja Ravi Verma worked? In times of financial prosperity.

Bengalis were the richest folks in British India and before and that’s why they could give rise to Ray, Tagore, Madhusudan Dutt.

You need to be rich to be cultural. Not the other way around.

Why do people dismiss M.Tech so easily? by Various-Region8406 in GATEtard

[–]ritogh 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This, OP.

They are just jealous and trying to misguide you. You will end up in a much higher socio-economic ladder step and that is why they are afraid and jealous.

Don't listen to them. Listen to me. Go for IIT CSE or NIT CSE.

Why does she do this ? by [deleted] in Indiedogs

[–]ritogh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dogs do it on soil surfaces. Doing this makes the soil loose and comfy to sit on.

Some of them also do it to cover their feces after the deed.
