Gems of Babasaheb Bhim Rao Ambedkar (1)

Babasaheb Bhimrao Rao Ambedkar was a staunch feminist.

Here's an expert from his speech in the Nagpur Session

English Translation

Ambedkar was so much into women empowerment & liberation that he said:

1. It is very shameful that women are joining politics leaving their own gender responsibilities.

2. Maharashtrian women are only left to open up their saree now given their participation in politics. They are so shameless.

3. If women go to parliament will their husband cook food for them? Will their husband take care of home & kids.

Ambedkar ji was such a feminist that he believed women’s duty is to only cook for their husbands & do household chores & take care of kids. And it’s a matter of shame that women are joining parliament. Next they will open up their sarees.

Not only this, our staunch feminist sir also shamed a woman for writing letters to our first PM Jawahar Lal Nehru ji.

Tr: His policy has completely collapsed. I've received some letters. The content of those letters is about the Prime Minister. It's a matter of great shame that the letter writer is a Maharashtrian woman.

In the letter, she mentions Nehru, saying "our this," "our that," saying, "He will do this," "He will do that," etc. When I was in the cabinet, I used to receive letters from a woman in Baroda. In them, she called me "Bhauji" (brother-in-law or elder brother-in-law).

Perhaps she considered Jawaharlal Nehru her husband. I burned two or three letters. I've kept one. At the party Nehru threw for me after I resigned, I noticed Nehru mingling with strange people. I pulled his coat sleeve to get his attention and showed him the letter I had with me.

Did you know?

While Babasaheb's first wife was sick in India Babasaheb was having an affair with a white woman.

He used to send his sidechic money for her kids but couldn't spare a dime for his sick wife and kids. Even the white woman accused him of infidelity in her letters.

Hindutvas really be saying shit like ‘Brigadier Pratap was so right!!!’ And ‘It’s always Abdul or Ahmed!’ And then wonder why Kashmiris hate India. Like how do you say ‘Kashmir belongs to us!’ While hating 97% of Kashmiris? Again and again supporting the corrupt government that puts them through hell and saying it’s because they’re ‘protecting’ kashmiris. Brainwashed population, sick society. Whats wrong with this country isn’t the 15%, it the idiots who really watched Shaurya and agreed with the entire bullshit speech that guy gave and are allowed to vote.

saying Brahmins face "casteism" for being unable to acknowledge that real casteism against SC/ST and OBC communities still exists, is like saying white people face "racism"

we all agree that racism is systemic. so is casteism. if someone insults you for being a savarna or brahmin, at worst you can call them prejudiced.

if you're what would be called a higher caste on the hierarchy, then please try to find other perspectives, listen to voices that aren't your family and friends.

We are knowingly mythologizing the suicides of the NEET students. There have been countless paper leaks under every regime and this isn't specific to the BJP.

Particularly, the government was forced to conduct re-examinations within the year.

What's interesting to me is that, knowing all this, the youth of India marched into protest, the moment a spokesperson showed up, which says two things:

They are dissatisfied with the government, the current state of affairs surrounding education / employment, or BOTH. They are empathetic to NEET students but gain emotional clarity from showing up, too. They have frustrations to vent.

They are desperately looking for support when the cultural convention is to treat young people as naive, yet-to-learn, and in the words of the CJI, "parasites."

Why then can we not channel this (rightful) anger not into just twenty suicides, but also so many that happen due to academic pressure in Kota, preparing for IIT, etc?

This is a rot that festers beyond governments. And we should protest it, not just for the students who fell victim to society's, their FAMILY'S expectations, but to prevent any more deaths that might happen this way.

Leftists have a crucial, time-bound opportunity to grab the stage and direct the crowd. They are at last willing to question the brainwashing.

Is religion and hinduphobia the only thing stopping you from being more 'left-wing' on your terms?

I mean, I am progressive. I do think traditions have to evolve to suit the need of the hour, not used to exploit the masses. But that doesn't mean they shouldn't be there at all.

And those things aren't "only" btw. My community has been preyed upon for centuries. If the Indian left can look beyond their subtle to highly ignorant behaviour regarding Arab colonialism and not appease the "minority" which is, wait for it, the second largest majority of the nation, only then can they call themselves "safeguarders of constitution" or something. The entire ideology crumbles to nothing if it cannot stand for equality, so yes, religion matters. That is what mattered at Pahalgam too. Also not to mention their love for Pakistan - a terrorist nation.

Call out everyone's bs, that's what. Call out everyone and not only those you have nothing to seek from.

See, religion and Hinduphobia are not meagre topics for you to use the word "only". People have shamed me and laughed at me for practicing. It's what I am, just as I am an indian. It's a part of my identity and had I been in Bangladesh or Kashmir, I'd have been raped and murdered for the same. And yes I'm pissed, because one who doesn't learn from their history is cursed to repeat it. I won't let go of the Arab colonialism and the blatant bigotry against almost every other culture and religion in its face. Colonization reduced India to what it is today, so I have major issues with it. And have we forgotten the History syllabi under Romila Thapar?

Not to forget communists supporting Amazon and its webseries Ashram because Hindus protested against it. Communists, Marxists supporting a capitalist organization. Why? Because the right said it's wrong, and therefore, Indian leftists merely to oppose, had to stand for capitalism. It's like the indian left cannot even form a good argument of their own, let alone be a competent opposition.

And still no government voices our ordeals. Forgotten Girija Tikoo, have you? Or Dipu Chandra Das? Or Kanhaiya Lal? Or the rape threats against Nupur Sharama for citing texts? How can you address this issue with such nonchalance?

The indian left doesn't even amuse me. So I refuse to align myself with people like Arundhati Roy and Barkha Dutt. Yikes.

Indian politics is an absolute joke made of the people, for the people, and by the people. It doesn’t matter if 60% of your town is illiterate. It doesn’t matter if girls haven’t felt safe on the roads ever since they turned seven years old. It doesn’t matter if the local school remains underfunded and understaffed since 1995 but the local mandir or mosque or church or gurudwara has gotten 10 different upgrades since last year. It doesn’t matter than every year every politician will debate 50 times on religion and 0 times on poverty. It doesn’t matter if you 1/3 of your income in taxes and the rest on rent and food only for it all to enter some nepo baby’s pocket as they buy their 5th villa in Dubai. Because, hey, at least we have it better than Pakistan, right?

Left is not Right : Duplicity Unacceptable # News Click

For a long time I believed that the political left stood for the poor, the helpless, and the dispossesed. Among Indian political class, left stood out due to its commitment to ideological purity advocating a classless society and by being relatively less corrupt. Many highly educated people from different strata of society, be it opinion makers, activists, writers, journalists, editors, actors,…

One such deep hitter that has fortunate a name for himself in the modern game is Shahid Afridi who knows no something else again way towards stay at the wicket except massacring the bal around the park from the word go.

Yuvraj Singh, the young Indian left hander is mesmerizing to watch since his stroke play is not entirely divine but effective for his pair. Better known now the 6 sixes that he hit Stuart Broad during a match, Yuvraj Singh is presumptively one of the most talented batsman in the all being respecting cricket today. The angwantibo with the reputation in relation to having iron compeer arms and strictness himself correspondingly much subtracted for controversy as possible is Abdur Razzaq. He has developed himself being as how the most bankable middle order batsman against Pakistan in recent times but is normally known remedial of his hard hitting in the final overs of the innings.<\p>

Known for entelechy the inventor as regards the 'Helicopter' shot, M.S Dhoni, the Indian cricket link up captain is an extremely hard hitting batsman who starts off slowly on the crease but after he settles down, he is just uncontrollable.

Hussey is a match winner and he stow change gears sole time during his inning and anytime he is on good terms that hard hitting mode, only God butt save the tinny bowling side.<\p>

Chris gayle the high-swelling Wild west Honky left handed opener is the hardest hitter on the cricket ball beside a idol of doubt.
