Yeah I said something similar yesterday but we can NOT let what happened to Renee Good cloud what happened to everyone else at the hands of these SS Demons!!!

Because we can’t disregard one person if we’re for human rights!

Just sad

The Cultural Gimmick :

It's sad how obsessed our nation is with slapping their individual identity on others. I come from a family where my mother is from the scenic hills of the Garhwal region, while my dad is from the heart of Maharashtra, from among the toiling farmers. I have lived in two different cultures and enjoyed the best of both worlds. However, it is tough to attribute where I'm from just from how I look. Here's an anecdote addressing a point I wish to address. So, on a normal Navratri eve, my friends and I were headed to an event. However, out of nowhere, as we were having fun on our way there, a man in a rather expensive car, pulls up beside us, and begins to shout at us for 'polluting his state' by our mere presence. How we don't speak Marathi and ruin their state. It's funny as I was able to shut him up with a reply in Marathi. However, it was a painful reminder that this country is always going to look at cultures differing from theirs as noise. I have friends from all across India, and it's a boon to be able to get to know what their culture is all about. Instead of asking the right questions to our uneducated and unbothered politicians, we wage wars on language. Enough proof for one to say, India is my country, but all Indians don't really see each other as brothers and sisters. Thanks to our respective state governments, if the Hindu-Muslim stupidity wasn't enough, now we have an Us vs Them war in cultures too.

Spineless As Usual..

Is it even a surprise that India has a spineless statement on the Venezuelan situation. The Ministry has always reiterated India's neutral stand, but let's stop acting like it's a masterclass on diplomacy. A blatant violation of international law but the Indian Ministry of External Affairs can't call a spade a spade, instead their recycled garbage is "We call upon all concerned to address issues peacefully through dialogue, ensuring peace and stability of the region."

Why even bother if this is your statement. Why can't we hold a country accountable even when we see a blatant violation of international law. Simple, we don't have a spine. S. Jaishankar has to pull his pants up. His instagram edits on Pakistan are the only highlights of his career, about time he calls out USA's invasions. No hope from this coward of a government. Let's see how long the government of India continues with these AI generated statements. Until then, we pay our taxes to these morons.

USA : The Unapologetic States of America

A nation that believes it is flawless, yet its ways are lawless. From exploiting the Middle East under the guise of helping eliminate problems to throwing out immigrants and keeping them like animals in a zoo. As of recently, the US government has broken international law and detained the Venezuelan president and the first lady via a surgical extraction. The secretary of state has been unapologetic, arrogant, and dismissive of their actions. Trump has claimed that the USA will 'run Venezuela' until they eradicate the drug situation and cartel activity in Venezuela for their 'safety'. They do so because Venezuela is their neighbour. However, the USA fail to understand that no matter how criminal Maduro's ways are, they are in no position to force their authority on Venezuela and make their decisions for them. As a permanent member of UN, you'd expect them to be sensible, but they're unapologetically lawless and vile when it's about respecting international boundaries. Trump, noble prizes are not handed out to invaders and paedophiles, so I hope you stop lecturing other countries when they are at war because you do not know what'syour business and what isn't. To conclude, I would like to list the current victims of USA's interference : Venezuela, Iran, Iraq, Palestine, Kuwait, Afghanistan (so far). No apologises, only missiles and threats.
