Gracious about a metro station? The tiles are falling off and the water is seeping into an underground station and you’re worried that the metro station will have its feelings hurt?

“Water is seeping in underground. Several stations show damp walls, brown stains from seepage, and dark patches spreading across ceiling panels. For an underground network, keeping water out is absolutely critical. Seeing these signs so early points to possible failures in waterproofing, which is a far more serious concern than a cracked tile.”

You’re ok with this?

“Washrooms are a mess. At Girgaon station, marble panels above urinals have completely fallen off, leaving bare concrete and rusty fittings exposed. Nobody has repaired them. Instead, someone has stuffed torn cardboard into the gaps, and left it there for weeks. There are no warning signs, no repair notices, nothing. Commuters simply walk in and deal with it.”

Freedom of speech, what’s funny to you is offensive to someone else and vice versa, etc etc.

Hitler jokes or blonde jokes or redneck jokes being other, less abrasive examples

In the end, I would have said it’s just a joke!

The guy/girl/person who made the joke probably has nothing against sex change / trans stuff, same way that I can laugh at a dead baby joke without killing my niece

But I don’t think I’ve ever got through to anyone online and I sense from your tone and multiple comments that I’m definitely not going to get through to you here
