Why DMK is being portrayed as an anti Hindu party? From my understanding, I feel that they are anti Brahminism. Why are some people hell bent on portraying that DMK is anti Hindu and majority of those people are either the supporters of BJP or from the so called upper caste.

In my Previous post about EVM credibility majority defended it stating VVPAT is the proof , non hackable etc , so why are they going to court to avoid credibility of the same ?

What's the use of giving details post election ? What if they actually prove its hackable ? Who is gonna Bourne the expenses for the re-election if proven any party won by hacking ? How is this different from booth capturing ?

Why are they hell bent on not matching VVPATs if the EVM tech is really so advanced and brought in VVPAT to prove very same ?

If so confident that people are happy and gonna win choco bar , why indulge in these cheap tactics ? 🤷🏽‍♂️

I know it’s a bit of an exaggeration but still, the obsession to go to the USA is big in Tamil Nadu I think, probably just as big as the obsession to move to Singapore. Il give my personal exsample, not just only my family but all my dad’s siblings have moved to USA, i do not have a single relative in India that’s my age or my parents age. Same on my mom’s side. And not just there, all my parents friends from college moved to the USA at some point in their life. Even in my grandparents apartment, there are tons of people who have relatives that move to the USA, like half the apartment has USA relatives, I bet if you where to throw a stone in the city of Chennai and it landed on apartment building, there is chance that someone in the building knows someone who moved to the USA or is related to someone who moved to the USA. I think after Gujuratis and telugus, Tamils are obsessed with moving to America, and statistics showcase this trend too, the Tamil population in the USA is the 4/5th highest in the world beating even many real life forgien immigrant populations in America itself. I find this trend kind of distrubing because it showcases brain drain. All the upper middle class go to USA/Singapore and the middle middle class go to Bangalore/Hyderbad. It’s sad to see a state that brags about being a model state when so many people leave to go to better places. What do you guys think?

What is the real story of Abhirami Bhattar?

This is BJP's president with the guy who had spread xenophobia against Tamils and TN govt systematically.

Earlier when Annamalai was in a rally in Karanataka addressing the Tamil community there, the Tamil thai vazhthu was played but then suddenly one Kannadiga myrandi BJP guy stopped the Tamil anthem and said that is Karnataka and Tamil anthem shouldn't be played. The thing is the song already started playing, Tamil thai vazhthu isn't some separatist terrorist group anthem, there is no harm in playing that, especially when 95% of the people in that crowd were tamils. This thing happened when Annamalai was on the stage, he was the chief guest there, if only he has some sense of pride in being a Tamil or even basic decency and a f*cking spine to stand against that chauvinist bast*rd, I would've considered listening to the BS Annamalai blabbers.

The same thing happened in this Manish kahsyap case too, BJP had taken that anti Tamil youtuber into their party and BJP TN hasn't spoke a word about it. The same guys accuse DMK to be anti tamils.

When Sanghi Ravi said vile shit about Tn history, entire BJP was mum, veera tamilachi Tamilisai too didn't speak about that but she atleast addressed it somewhere in a youtube channel.

10% vote varathukulaiye ivanunga saayam velukuthu, ivanungala power la vandhu, Tamil nadah Gujarat ku adamanam vechutu vedika papanunga.

To all those Tamil RW guys who still d*ckride Modi myran, do you have any justifications to this? Today they have taken in a youtuber, tomorrow they might give votes to the like of Rajapakshas too, day after tomorrow they might even give seats to Al Qaeda too if that suits their agenda. BJP is anti Tamil and these Tamil regional parties should milk this episode to the fullest. BJP and RSS hate Dravidians or anyone who doesn't bend to the hindu-hindi-hindustan ideology.

Silly but related to this argument: Yesterday some reporter asked about Tamil sambhar vs Udupi Sambhar, that Tejasvi Surya supported and even spread BS even in this issue that Kannadigas invented sambhar or something on that line, Annamala pechuku kooda Tamil nadu sambhar nalla irukumnu kooda sollala, sondha katchiyilaye ivlo insecure ah iruka malumatti ah na ippo dha pakuren. Konjamachu un identity kaga nilluda, nee enna try pannalum, nee kaalu madrasi dhan da un northies sanghi counterparts ku. You can't erase your identity ra aadu.

The way election campaign being done in North is totally different from how it was done in Tamilnadu.

Suddenly Ram and Muslims has come into picture. Development has stopped being an important point in election. Lot of turmoil due to lies spoken by you know who.

I think we are fortunate that we have been spared from this thamasha.

We have a pilgrimage group that is organising a pilgrimage as below (ex-Mangalore). Two people are dropping out due to family emergencies. Hence thought some one would be interested to join up.

In my previous post, some RW Tamil dudes don't want to accept that any person from any caste can perform prohidam in any temple they want. All they say is idhula oru samradhayam, idhelam kada pidikanum. If that's the case then why allow women ( during their period ) into the temple, why allow supposedly lower caste people into the temple? Why get money from them? Why do the priest's family study and work in white-collar jobs abroad? Idhula sambradhayam illaya?

As I said Hinduism is not one religion, it's not even a religion, it's an umbrella term for various worship practices in this land. If it were one religion, then it wouldn't put its people into slavery. More than 80 priests lost their youth and careers because of casteism, this is exactly the reason why Tamil RW is a joke. They never stood for Tamil people, only sucked up to Vedic regressive books. They don't care about hindu madham all they care about is the caste hierarchy being maintained.

Today's hinduism is a mixture of vedic, pre vedic, dravidian, munda and other tribal practices. Hinduism is an umbrella term, the inability or ignorance of people in understanding this is what causing problem today. Especially the tamil RW that replies in this sub.

Ex: Most hindus worship our ancestors, this is a pre vedic practice. Even idolatry is speculated to come from IVC.

But when you read the wiki on hinduism Or in general when they discuss hinduism, they start from vedas only. I'm not rejecting the vedic influence in our faith system today but not everything is from vedas, in fact lost famous hindu God's are post vedic additions.

Lingayats reject vedas but they are still hindus, vallalar showed his middle finger to vedas he was a hindu, narayana guru did the same once again he was a hindu. So, it is very clear that one can criticise vedic norms and still be considered hindu legally.

This is exactly what uday said. According to him sanatana dharma is a vedic concept which is closely knitted with varnashrama dharma ( vedas support varna system). Also the word sanatana first was mentioned in manusmriti. To all those rw warriors who want uday and his supporters to be hanged please print a copy of manusmriti and give it to hindu youngsters so they can "support" Your cause.

THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO HARM IN CRITICISING A REGRESSIVE CONCEPT IN HINDUISM, THIS HAD BEEN DONE BY SO MANY SCHOLARS AND GURUS IN THE PAST. I myself see uday as some joker but I whole heartedly stand by what he said. Anything that grades people based on birth shall be eradicated, no second thoughts.

All I want to ask to my RW friends is that you guys don't mind much when DMK ( periyat gang) kills dalits in police custody, you guys don't seem to bother about the blatant caste violence in Tam society, you guys didn't even bother about brahmin priests bullying and not allowing other caste archagars from performing their duties but all you whine about is that one sentence udhayanidhi said a year ago?

Hindu madham valaranumna modha hindus ku prechana na vandhu nillungada, modha ellarum samamnu ellarayum sethukongada adhelam pannama hindukaley ondrinayunga Muslims enna panra parunganu solradhula proyojanamey illa. An avg hindu in TN sees atleast one caste based rejection or insults in his life than some Muslim trying to convert him to Islam. ( Christians ah sekala cos avanga church la current poiduchuna veliya vandhu pamplets thara arambichiruvanunga lol 😂 but 99.999% no serious grooming unless the weaked oppressed section of people show interest themselves)

Almost all the 30+ people who died when sangh parivar tried destroying babar masjid we're lower caste or obc hindus but there is simply not a single obc Or dalit priests in the newly constructed ram mandir. Indha nelamai marinadham unga madham valarum, illana mmbikitu dha pogum. Adha epdi mathalamnu yosinga.

In 1964 after the devastating cyclones in the Gulf of Mannar, the Pamban bridge was supposed to be resurrected by the team under Metro Sreedharan in 46 days as against allowed 6 months by Ministry of Railways.

In 2022 December it was a stability alert given by devices fitted by IIT (Madras). It is almost three years now since train traffic between mainland India and Rameswaram island remains suspended.

What is actually causing this long delay?

Thoughts on Rahul Gandhi’s wealth distribution scheme?

I think he is an underrated gem. Mark my words, he will play a very important part in the upcoming 2026 election and he will become the CM in the 2030 elections.

Here's why I think he has a lot of potential.

He proved his political prowess in the nadigar sangam elections

He won those elections despite facing a ton of adversities, Also note that he won over a much established veteran. He has the experience and knowledge already, He will gain more in 2026 and win in 2030.

His supreme public oratory skills

Like it or not, The guy is one of most influential public speakers of all time. Even those who hate him cannot deny this. You have to give this to him.

Scheme to help farmers

His Rs.1 for farmers for every ticket sold was as impactful as the mid day meal scheme (albeit on a much farmer scale). A good leader will create schemes where everybody wins and nobody loses.

• Farmers won because they get free money
• Producers won because people who want to support farmers can go to movies. He created a new audience with his out of the box move.
• Audience won because instead of being a boring person who donates Rs.120 to farmers now I can do the same by watching 120 movies, Which will be a much more enriching fulfilling experience than simply donating the money directly which many people probably won't do.

I could go on and on, But I'm gonna stop here. I understand that you might think I'm talking due to the bias that he introduced my favourite musician to kollywood, But thats not really the reason because if we went by that reason I should be an Ajith fan because he introduced the GOAT musician SJ Surya, I support Vishal genuinely think he is a good leader and he can bring change.

Why is Shaivism more popular in Tamil Nadu as opposed to Vaishnavism? Why is it more appealing to the Tamil people?

Note : Mods this is related to TN as we are still part of the same country FFS !!! Our democracy is same level and law as their democracy . Also elections are over in TN anyhow , so doesn't make difference !!

Background :

ECI disqualified the Congress candidate and all independent candidates withdrew magically & NOTA is void i guess ? "Free and Fair election" !!

Brief news

My take :

Whoever thinks , instead of voting part A or B , I'll vote for independent candidate vro - Independent candidates are mostly Stooges set , they won't be having any voice even if they win !

I guess having a strong regional party and local people is more important atleast to show resistance?

Lastly - ECI deserves a round of applause !! They are strongest supporter of BJP !!

And I wonder even if miraculously Congress wins , they can find and remove these people ! They have spread like cancerous cells almost in all departments and systematically democracy has be killed off just few more years till they hit nail in the coffin (or burned if you prefer that)

And in future , even if sangis dont like , they ll have to s*ck it up to whatever their master commands & the raising income disparity and other parameters looks like , its for sure gonna happen and you guys are blinded by religion to not see those !!

BTW - NOTA voters - 🤡 , ur votes won't be considered or needed , they are asking you to f off .
