The Indian community is so shattered and raw but ig that’s what happens to a diverse people after years spent under oppression and in survival mode. It’s okay. We deserve to air out our dysfunctional selves just like all other countries and nations on their way to development. It happens and for god’s sake it hasn’t even been a century since the brits left this land so stop comparing yourselves to countries like America. We fucked up, we picked ourselves up and we are moving towards development with freedom and democracy. Don’t compare yourself to dictatorships either because again the form of government you choose determines your growth and democracy slows things down significantly.
Y’all are so damn brave and even though I know we all hold so many opposing political and social views, I wish the best for each one of us.
Indians, may this century be kind to us. 🥂
P.s I think post colonial trauma in societies should be studied and taught more to help people understand what is happening to them.
Just putting this out there for those who don't know much about Kashmir and the conflict since quite a few marxists (or leftists) have taken the position that kashmir is occupied and should be free; Kashmir is actually the state of Jammu and Kashmir. It's a multi-ethnic and multi-religious state. Kashmir is claimed by Pakistan and China (who have even lesser claim to that region). Pakistan is a state created by Islamists for Islamic fundamentalism as they refused to share equal power with Hindus, they violently cleansed Hindus from the region they are currently occupying. Kashmiri "self-determination" has been paved by cleansing Kashmir off of its native Hindu population. Pakistan has settled non-Kashmiris en masse to Kashmir so no voting would be fair. "Self-determination" = ethno-nationalism at the cost of native ethnic groups within Kashmir. why are leftists or Marxist even supporting this? You can argue against the military presence, but if there wasn't a military presence there then that'd invite more attacks against Indians. Sorry but not sorry that we don't want our people dead.

The fact that their are people who say that there is no proof that most who killed were hindus, says a lot....
YES three non hindus were killed, in which, one tourist was Israeli and another tourist was from Italy and one was local Kashmiri muslim man (who got killed because he was trying to help otherntourists).
BUT this DOESN'T change the fact that hindus were specifically targeted.
Every religion has its own fault whether it is Hinduism or Islam but it is our responsibility to take responsibility about these faults that are in our respective religions.
Hinduism doesn't teach violence and how do I know? Because it's my religion but I also know that some soo called extremist hindus did commit heneous acts (e.g. sati pratha and castism) on the name of Hinduism. And as a "Hindu" I do agree that there are some faults in my religion.
And I can't say anything about Islam confidently because it's NOT my religion but I sure do hope that it doesn't teaches violence. But even if it doesn't, many still have used this religion to commit heneous acts against humanity and you (if you are a muslim) should take responsibility for that. If there are some faults in your religion then take responsibility for it and try to reform it.
Just like how every drop of water makes an ocean, if everyone (and this means everyone) should call out to things which are wrong instead of sugarcoating them.
I may have sugercoat many things in past and I do take responsibility for that but now, today as I speak, I have reformed my thought process in hope of becoming a better version of myself.
And trust me, if someone like me can, then you can aswell.

Pakistan admits to it’s role in the Pulwama terror attack. Calls it “tactical brilliance”.
They’re completely mask off now, any Pakistani who hereafter tries to deny, gaslight and lie about Pakistan’s role in terrorism on Indian soil is admitting to being an accomplice to this terrorist state’s crimes.
If you're not Indian or Hindu and you're into Vedic astrology, yoga or some other practice rooted to Hinduism and you can't speak up for oppressed Hindus or when when Hindus get attacked & selectively murdered, then you have no business using them for your aesthetics or profiting off from those practices.
