Ofcourse India occupied Kashmir. It is not a cucked country that will willingly give away territory. NO country will ever do that. This is where we see the limits of activist progressivism as they cannot see the necessity of geopolitical maneuvers to ensure internal security.

If you watch Indian news channels you see conservatively attired Muslims screaming on TV against the government without any fear of persecution. India is the only non-Muslim country offering Haj subsidies and still allowing Muslim civil code.

Do street-level tensions exist between Hindus and Muslims in India? Yes. But to claim that Muslims are being actively persecuted because they are a minority, when even according to V-Dem only 25% report discrimination vs 80% of Black Americans is to subscribe to Western hypocritical hegemony.

V-Dem is a very flawed survey with subjective reporting. I think Salvatore Babones does an excellent job of unpacking the flawed assumptions of Western intellectuals on India. Its tiring when folks force-fit Anglo-colonial racial hierarchy system onto India and only see what they want to see.

The only way folks could survive in the country is by forming sizable landed cooperatives for grain crops like wheat, rice, corn etc. while also having a family garden for fruits/veggies/spices, while other cooperatives engage in medieval style processing in the absence of fuel. Then trade locally.

India’s Surprising Democracy Explained by Prof. Salvatore Babones in Dharma Democracy
YouTube video by speaknsee India’s Surprising Democracy Explained by Prof. Salvatore Babones in Dharma Democracy

I see so so many bad scholarly takes on India and Modi, equating it to fascism and authoritarianism. They prefer to think that the Indian population is authoritarian than seek to understand the complexities and contradictions of a very different country. Salvatore Babones is the exception.

How tech turned against women As AI-generated sexualised images proliferate and app-facilitated abuse spreads, we are sleepwalking into a new age of gender inequality. It is time to regulate properly

"large language models such as ChatGPT were consistently advising women to ask for lower salaries than men in recruitment processes,... AI tools already in use by more than half of England’s councils were downplaying women’s medical conditions, potentially resulting in unequal care"

I'm not even sure what is happening in Europe anymore. Half the online news videos say that Europe is taking a stand, realigning toward China and remilitarizing. The other half say that Europe is cucked, Rubio got a standing ovation, NATO has support and they support a return to colonial politik. πŸ€·πŸ½β€β™€οΈ

Really watched this twice over and every person in the US should too. It is a super insightful video of the Latinidad experience that shoots down contemporary leftist narratives of Latin conservatism filtered through the lens of Anglo colonial racist experience. Latinidad is different.

While I like to believe that Indigenous frameworks proposed by Indigenous people are being implemented in all seriousness, I wouldn't be surprised if they just become the latest shiny new academic fad that everyone wants to cash in on. Actually ceding power in governance is a different matter.

I don't even know if cricket legends can be born out of T-20s the way they used to in ODIs. Facing a new crop of names and faces. Not sure what the relative status of old top teams such as England, Australia, NZ, South Africa, India, Pakistan, West Indies and Sri Lanka are now.
