priyanka chopra is a un ambassador but here she is choosing to belittle a pakistani woman asking about her support of nuclear war

[srndipitys]

her saying “are you done venting? are you finished?” when 2 massive men grabbed the mic off of her is such a dick move

[sunfortune]

middle ground when advocating for nuclear war??? MA’AM

she literally had Modi at her fucking wedding, she’s trash. for people who don’t know - that’s India’s D*nald Tr*mp (that’s like if any of your American faves invited Tr*mp to their wedding… yup) M*di’s presidency in India has lead to a spark in hate crimes mainly targeting muslims and other religious (or ethnic) minorities in India. he also spearheaded the recent Kashmir crisis which sees a region, that has historically been Muslim-majority and enjoyed autonomy in the largely Hindu nation, stripped of it’s autonomous rights and are currently under military coup. so yeah… she been ugly and trash.

“Physical action is far inferior to an intellect concentrated on the Divine. Have recourse then to Pure Intelligence. It is only the petty-minded who work for reward. When a man attains to Pure Reason, he renounces in this world the results of good and evil alike. Cling thou to Right Action. Spirituality is the real art of living. The sages guided by Pure Intellect renounce the fruit of action; and, freed from the chains of rebirth, they reach the highest bliss.”

— The Bhagavad Gita, II: 53-55

“Today, again, the mind searches for a word: A word Imbibed with wine, or filled with venom, Replete with love, or fraught with dread. A word of affection: Like a joyful glance - One which carries the caress of soft, warm lips. Brilliant - like a surge of the molten gold. The very spring of excitement in the lovers’ embrace.”

—  Faiz Ahmed Faiz (1911-1984), from “A word” in “Memory”, translated from the Urdu by Sain Sucha
