Luigi mangioni's case has ignited a tiny class sentiment in usa. But is india we are too focused on religion, caste, states, language, creed, race, gender, region war more than class war.

Think about this thoroughly once all our problems is cause of ruling class, rich class is not wanting to change the status quo. Cause they want to be defacto owner of the country. They will do anything to prevent class conscious to arise in masses. That's why they chose politics of the simpleton to distract us from the main reason for all our problems.

A few months ago I befriended a random person on reddit, and it was a decent conversation until it came to the topic of India and Indians. The discord started over their denial about how much of a shithole this country is, then proceeded to how "misunderstood and distorted" its value system and culture are, and eventually ended on an acrimonious note with me being accused of being unaware of the cultural and social history of this country (lmao). On a serious note, what the f*ck makes the people of this country so incredibly delusional and moronic? Mind you, this person didn't even live in India but couldn't bear to hear bad things about her country (why the f*ck won't such people just go back to India and die on the roads like they should). There's a lot I have been meaning to say about this, but haven't really gotten around to doing it. On that note, here's an account of everything at a cognitive-cultural level that I feel is wrong with India and Indians:

1. Indians lack social etiquette: Enough has been said about this already so I don't need to venture into much detail, but we need to understand where this mindset is coming from. Indians are an extremely entitled bunch because India's social propriety constantly tells its people stuff about where they belong in the hierarchy, giving them a false sense of pride and taking away from whatever little sense of responsibility and accountability people have (there's already none to little to start with). Indians expect people to clean up after themselves, they expect impunity for their actions, and all in all, behaving like apes in public is seen as a display of status and wealth.
2. Indians lack empathy: This goes a lot deeper than a simple lack of civic sense or the inability to give a fuck about one's environs. Indian society is fundamentally low on social trust. It isn't the only one that is, and many large societies tend to be this way, but a unique combination of toxic factors like poverty, a value system that emphasizes suspicion and one-upmanship, and stratification makes it the worst of its kind. Suffering is taken to be some kinda perennial perpetual truth of life and every time someone so much as even vents about their difficulties, 4 other idiots jump in to "console" them about how much of a struggle their own life is, how this person needs to not make a big deal out of it, and how they need to make their peace with it since things never get better in this country (yes, people actually say that shit). Now, there are two ways in which this lack of empathy is embedded further. First, as already stated, is by reinforcing the same old low-trust bullshit that we've been passed down generationally. The second way this plays out is when the classic Indian amorality and sociopathy start taking effect. For a country that is so obsessed with morals and values and spirituality, we sure lack that shit in every area of life. Venality and a disregard for established laws run so deep in the Indian psyche, that it is impossible to get by without engaging in some kinda shadiness in everyday life. Typically, someone gets duped, tricked, or swindled and turns bitter. In turn, they keep feeding into the same loop of low social trust.
3. A peculiar meanness that feeds off of the ideas of self-worth: Indians are obsessed with the idea of "inherent worth" and it manifests in ways that would make even the staunchest of white supremacists look like amateurs. Indians are fixated on ideas like "IQ" (most have no clue about how it is constructed or measured, tho). In the Indian scheme of things, IQ is heritable and immutable. IQ is reflected only through certain skills, "math" being the most prominent. You're either "it" or you are not. You'll be judged, treated, and accorded a place in society per your inherent worth. A lot of this can be traced to our revered "texts" and other aspects of our culture, but here's the thing - it's fucking outdated, it's stupid, and it makes us look like a bunch of morons. I used the IQ example as just something that I have experienced a lot myself, there are a ton of other traits that Indians characterize as "talent" that are treated similarly. Result - Indians make for a toxic people with a toxic culture that leaves a vast majority with psychological problems that they don't even wanna acknowledge. Because, let's face it - if you acknowledge psychological harm, you're either "weak" or something is wrong with you. Again, this is not to say that these things are exclusive to Indian culture. It's just that these are the most prominent with Indians, and I have yet to come across people so toxically immersed in their own bullshit.
4. The idea of "dignity" is completely absent: Naturally, when ideas of worth are tied so intrinsically to one's heritable traits, birth, and upbringing, it's kinda hard to conceive of "dignity" divorced from these ideas. Indians are quick to size you up, and any assessment of you and treatment thereof will only proceed from said act of sizing up. In that sense, whether or not you'll be treated with dignity will depend on a plethora of factors. There is another dimension to this. Indians are incapable of letting go of social identity. Like the concept is so deeply rooted in their consciousness, it's impossible for Indians to see another person as just that - a person. Everyone is to be treated a certain way per their station in life, and any failure in doing so invites censure from those around and even those supposedly "beneath." You're left in a place where you're either being stomped upon or stepping on someone else.
5. Indians are rancorous and deluded: Straight talk - India is one of the biggest 3rd world hellholes and Indians display all signs of a bottom-tier third-world people. Most can't argue in good faith (they aren't even aware of what they are doing), they are verbally aggressive, and any insinuation of this is met with a lot of resistance and bitterness (I'm sure it's how people are going to respond to this post). Let's face it guys, Indians suffer from social rot cause they can't let go of a medieval ass value system, and they are in massive denial about it. At this point, I'm convinced that there is literally no way of getting people to admit these things. Then there's another bunch of delulus (of a certain socio-political bend) that has risen over the last decade or so who think everything bad that this country shows signs of happened cause MuH CoLoNiaLisM and MuH MuGhALs. To them, I say - please read something that's not Sitaram Goel or right wing hokum. This country has been a certain way for a very long time, and you have nobody to blame but yourself.

I'm of the firm belief that before things get better superficially - infrastructure, government systems, etc., there will have to be a ton of cultural and social change because unless we transform the underlying structure, I don't think lasting change is possible. Again, this is not to say that "good" doesn't exist in the country or that there is nothing worth commending. All I'm saying is that the the way things stand, a vast majority of Indian culture is stuck with unnecessary baggage and it's holding everyone back. EVERYTHING about the Indian value system needs to change - right down to the way we deal with the people around us. I know there's a lot left unsaid and this post is going to be taken down because idiots from Indiaspeaks, etc. will have it mass-reported, but I hope to have initiated a conversation in the right direction at the least.

Three people, including two children, died on Monday when a dumper truck run over people sleeping on a footpath in Pune.

The truck driver has been detained and it is being ascertained if he was under the influence of alcohol.

I'm increasingly compelled to buy the following argument:

• Our world and our nation is already plagued with inequality. Wealth and income are concentrated in the hands of a minority.
• AI entering into the picture can only drive down bargaining power of labour. Infact there'll be fewer jobs and too many chasing them. Underpaid jobs and underemployment can be the zeitgeist.
• This can further drive rich more richer and poor more more poorer. In such a context something like UBI can help people from getting rot in financial distress and ensure minimum quality of life. Infact capitalist should start seeing as a mechanism which will sustain demand for their produce and will shield societies from a collapse or meltdown.

Looking forward for your insights and respectful exchange of ideas.

Hi everyone, It’s Day 3 of what seems to be a 6-7 day marathon of loud chanting that starts at 4 AM and doesn’t stop until midnight(around 20hrs+) and I’ve completely lost it. It’s not just my area—they’ve installed microphones everywhere, and the same loud chanting is blasting across multiple places. They just change the pace of the chanting and instruments, but the lyrics remain the same, repeated over and over for hours. It feels less like devotion and more like living in a mental asylum. I respect everyone’s right to practice their religion, but this is extreme. It’s not just disrupting sleep—it’s killing peace of mind and making it impossible to function. Even my cats don’t like it! Why ​It need to be this loud and go on days? Are there no limits or guidelines for events like this? As a Bengali Muslim, I don’t understand this. Does this happen in every state, or is it just West Bengal? Is this kind of non-stop noise for days common in other places too?

I’m genuinely asking: Is this necessary? Why can’t it be done in a way that respects others’ basic need for peace?

Sorry if this sounds harsh,but this is driving me insane.

We all are aware of the recent hikes in food and every other commodity. Even when the US fed has cut the rates, RBI has decided not to cut it in India.

Just imagine what would have happened if we didn't give away freebies. We could use that money for infra development and for offsetting our debts.

I personally feel there should be some kind of restriction on the amount you can just give away. As an immediate thought, I think only the amount donated by electoral bonds should be eligible for freebies (if at all), the taxes we pay should be used for infra development and other meaningful purposes like education, military and space research, and for paying our debts.

What do you think?

Lately, a wave of public outrage has surged against FM, and rightly so. Yet it is strange to observe how this anger is often directed solely at one individual while those higher up the chain escape criticism. This seems a little too convenient for the regime, doesn't it?

It appears that the regime, with its resources and influence, has orchestrated a narrative that strategically allows venting public frustration but ONLY towards the FM. In fact, I feel it empowers it. You will hardly see any tax posters or infographics with the FM's boss's picture on them, despite they being the one doing all the poll promises. Do we really think FM has full autonomy and there is really no one above them pulling the strings?

I have a clichéd theory here. Imagine a person who, despite little qualification, is placed in a significant role within a powerful regime. This individual who does not wield the same political clout as their bosses, eager to please and safeguard their position, takes on the unspoken responsibility of enduring public backlash; becomes a willing and a necessary scapegoat. By doing so, they not only reinforce their importance in the team but also protects the interests of those in power by deflecting attention away from their bosses.

Moreover, the nature of this outrage is predominantly online, which further benefits the regime. Digital platforms are a controlled and boundaried environment where dissent can be monitored and managed. The regime possesses the resources such as IT cells, to either subdue public discontent or completely misdirect it towards a more manageable entity. Of course, either way, it ensures that the outrage hardly goes beyond the digital platforms. It seldom becomes a discourse of the masses.

Anyways, I feel that people should outrage when they're wronged and keep outraging if they're wronged over and over again. But one must be cautious where to direct the outrage. Instead of getting drawn into a narrative that serves the interests of those in power, we should question the regime that wrongs and not just the individuals who follow orders. The FM deserves every bit of criticism that they get and some more, but so do their bosses, who have figured a way to effortlessly evade accountability.

P.s. India's taxes are back-breaking, the regime imposing them is evil and the FM is rude about public concerns. And, as usual the PM is out there posing for another bite or practicing new fancy terms for upcoming campaigns.
