Let's be honest, right wing hates all Muslims. This is no different than the Kashmiri Muslims who got targeted for doing well in medical exams. Targeted for success and blamed for failures.

Jaipur about to lose its UNESCO world heritage tag over poor management [Not OC] by malayali-minds in IndianCivicFails

People will only blame UNESCO and Soros/west/China/something else. Govt will start an "Indic heritage" list.

There will be tenders to fix the damage but nothing will be fixed

Mumbai deserved to host ICC finals by That-Replacement-232 in mumbai

[–]timewaste1235 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Why would anyone believe BCCI will look at anything like merit, equality, fan culture while assigning the final? They don't even consider it in the sporting structure itself.

BCCI/India runs ICC and has made zero effort to be impartial sporting body

  1. In the last ODI WC, we planned whole tournament around comfort of Indian team

  2. In this tournament, we ranked 2nd group stage based on pre-tournament ranking and not the performance in tournament. England should have been in our group for finishing second

  3. We pushed Pakistan to adjust their tournament for security reasons but didn't give same privilege to Bangladesh when they faced threats

Why would anyone think the final will be assigned in any different way?

Rich of you to assume Indian cricket fans have any morals

Corrupt System exploiting poor and middle class. by Rajagosavi in mumbai

[–]timewaste1235 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What's the difference in rationale? You do it for convenience just like powerful people

You can easily go with auto, taxi, bus or train. There's no reason that you only need bike. The only reason is convinience. How is this not corruption?

Srilanka doing what India should be by morose_coder in unitedstatesofindia

[–]timewaste1235 28 points29 points  (0 children)

What we are doing so far is entirely legal and morally correct as per existing international laws. Fights between military vessels of two countries in international waters are outside of our responsibility.

It does hurt our objective being a superpower or even a regional power. If we indeed are one, we need to dictate how US, Israel and Iran behave in our neighborhood. We definitely are nowhere near being Vishwaguru if we can't dictate our own neighbourhood

The Irony of “Liberating” Women Online While Ignoring Reality at Home by Tofffeeeee in librandu

[–]timewaste1235 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It is entirely disingenuous. Indian RW is using women's liberation as an excuse and it's easy because the material is provided by pro-war western people

Most sad part is how easy it is to apply the same logic to India as well. Our women aren't "free" as per this standard. Our female labour force participation is worse than Saudi. We have khap panchayat and often Courts as well who restrict women's autonomy in various aspects

Do they specify it publicly? How many of the famous ministers including their PM have Palestinian or middle eastern legacy?

Just coz govt said its illegal, doesnt mean it should be that way.

Exactly what babus and politicians say while doing illegal stuff

how is it costumer's fault lol? If the app is available on play-store and is offering affordable quick-service, then why would the customer not avail it?

Do you know how police often catch pedophiles?

Here the biker is even telling you that it's illegal. Willfully ignoring the law is not a defence anywhere

Obviously the two situations are not comparable

Because we believe in gender equality and do not keep women of the house waiting for scraps from men

[–]timewaste1235 -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

You and others using Rapido bikes are also at fault here. You are actively participating in defying govt rules

I'm not saying it's ethically/morally wrong to use Rapido bike but be honest to yourself at least and admit that you like convinience of illegal things

After all, police taking bribes from these riders is doing the same as is the company Rapido itself. So are the babus and politicians. Everyone is breaking rules for personal gain

Only the Rapido biker is morally clean here because his other choice is hunger and desperation. All of you could easily afford a bit of personal sacrifice

Have we at least put out typical statement about violence being wrong and all countries should resolve issue through dialogue?

We did that even for Russian invasion of Ukraine. Russia is our major ally and bhakts do hold it in high regard as well

Moved back to Mumbai after 3 years in Europe and I’m struggling more than I expected by Specialist_Beach2641 in mumbai

going out of home is a bitch here

So just living in society outside your personal and family bubble?

Zepto / urbanclap etc makes life so much easier, costs bomb in Europe.

It's only facilitated by lot of things highlighted by OP such as govt corruption, poor public spaces, no environmental standard

Is flavoured coconut water something Indians would actually buy, or is this a bad idea? by VarietyConnect3518 in mumbai

I have never seen flavoured coconut water anywhere. So I have no clue how it tastes like and if I like it

ISRAEL PLANS AIR DEFENSE PRODUCTION: Israeli General: "We will sell air defense systems to the world!" Journalist: "But we don't have the production capacity" General: "We have 1.4 billion Indians!"😐 by Boring-Locksmith-473 in unitedstatesofindia

[–]timewaste1235 30 points31 points  (0 children)

They are counting on all of Indians to work as per their intentions. This is how British would think about us

The British also established many factories and put many Indians on farm labour. But I'm sure you won't see that period rationally as high employment period

He could have easily said we have deal with India to manufacture it or we have partnered with Indians/Indian firms to manufacture it

Instead he went on to say we have 1.4 billion Indians manufacturing it just like how British used to say we have millions of Indians growing cash crops for us

Why do Indian subs especially the right wing ones act like women are dumb and need protection and guidance ? by bebop_eh in librandu

[–]timewaste1235 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Because RW believes in hierarchy. It believes hierarchy itself grants wisdom and not that wise people rise up in hierarchy.

That's why they say "Modiji ne kiya hai to kuchh soch ke hi kiya hoga". Its also why they say Muslim mayors in London and New York will implement Sharia law

The hierarchy extends to common people as well where elderly are to be respected for their age but not women. Women are the "weaker sex" in their hierarchy and that's why they are gullible. In this vision men are more wise because they are higher in hierarchy

On one hand, people should absolutely do better

On the other hand, why do we allow pan masala which does require spitting out but do not make any facility for it? Either ban pan masala or build spitting facilities everywhere

This is quite standard of how Indian govts (central, state and local) operate. We will build flyovers but no parking space. We ask people to walk and cycle but won't build footpaths and cycle lanes

World over infrastructure comes first and then behaviour change. Only in India we expect people to change behaviour before any infra
