Only a handful of billionaires are benefiting from the government policy.

Here are links to the same location on alternative frontends that protect your privacy.
They are helping cow poaching businesses by providing government oil tankers as disguised transport system.
If they do it openly the public will protest against the government
Because cow smuggling is illegal.

There are many countries with higher rape rates per capita than India, but in terms of conviction rate, and corruption in the law enforcement as well as lower courts India is somewhere at the bottom.
And don’t forget the victim blaming and abuse of power by ruling parties.
In many rape cases relatives of the ruling party or even MPs like Brij Bhushan are themselves implicated. It can be automatically assumed the victim will never get justice in that case.
Casteism is also a problem unique to India and cases like Hathras shows ruling party’s apathy to rape victims of lower castes. Additionally society in general denies justice to lower caste rape victims.
Victim blaming and casteism are sociological elements of a premature society.
India will never progress with the mindset that some other country is much worse so that can make them look better. One has to acknowledge what’s wrong with the country and then try to fix it. Irrespective of what’s happening in the rest of the world.
1-I think lack of sex education and hyper-conservative sexual repression along with misogynistic society that blames the victim are the main causes.
2-Also many sex offenders either have political connections or are related to political leaders making them immune to persecution.
3-Corruption and inertia in the law and order system makes it easier to get away with crime.
4-Poverty is another issue. Poor women and girls are at higher risk of being sexually assaulted. With 57% of the population making less than $2.34 per day and dependent on rations for food.
5-Caste system also puts women at risk. Since the start of Hinduism people are divided in four classes. The ruling class, The priests, the business class and the labour class. In that order the labour class form the lowest caste called Dalits who were historically treated as slaves and untouchables. The culture still prevails to an extent. Rapes committed by higher caste people on lower caste victims are not taken seriously by society and usually the lower caste victims are considered to be lying about rape.
There is nothing inherently wrong with Indian people because almost half of the Singapore is populated by Indians and this doesn’t happen there because of strict laws that don’t bend for anyone and higher sexual literacy and per capita income.

This is the future of social media and you are a part of it. Currently there are only a few people but later on everyone will catch up and this will have most of the population on it.
But because of the federal nature it will be cluttered overwhelming or difficult to manage like other centralised social media.
The biggest advantage is neither the corporate nor the governments or dictatorships can censor content here. Only the community can decide what’s best for them.
The future is federated, decentralised and anonymised and open to everyone.
Eventually people are gonna get tired of the toxicity of mainstream social media.
Eventually all of the internet is going to be decentralised and free from control again as it was meant to be.
How exactly? Explain yourself.

You missed the double n*zi salute

Well they have excluded Jews from their new citizenship act so this is just show business.
India even lags behind in manufacturing wrt Bangladesh and Vietnam too.
Nothing surprising. Indian GDP is bloated with 6%+ inflation which their central bank considers normal. So cost of everything doubled every decade.
But the wages are stagnant. There is 0% real wage growth in the last 10 years.
Per capita income ranking is 129
HDi ranking is 132
Not even 1% percent Indians can afford a medical emergency.
Corruption perception index only got worse.
Under 25 unemployment is 44%
People have every reason to be unhappy
Because demagogues have little rational argument to persuade people so they distract them with body language and shouting.
That’s makes more sense 😂
Obviously this is not about Gujarati people. They are just the same people as anywhere else in India.
I have specifically mentioned Gujarati billionaires. You know which guys I am talking about.
There are many recent incidents to think of which points in a similar direction.
In Varanasi the livelihood of small boaters is being taken away by large steamers owned by Gujarati billionaires.
In Ayodhya 4500 houses and shops of poor people were bulldozed to build five star hotels owned by Gujarati property tycoons.
In Ahmedabad the biggest semiconductor plant is being built predominantly funded by tax money and low interest loans from Public sector banks but owned by Adani. I mean they literally own the country at this point and if you are paying taxes you are working for them.
