  • Aljazeera is a great publication , at least compared to it's western counterparts.

    You do know that calling everything anti-Semitic makes you equate apartheid fascists with real anti-Semitism?

    You would salute Nazi Germany just like you salute the genocide in Palestine.. just like other fascists already salute Israel.

  • Sure. Sorry if beeing confrontational. Started this after a few drinks. Main research was MP tourism establishing stealing lands, Many were tribal others not. A big cohort of foreign and domestic money , corruption and violence (direct and indirect).

  • Yea I travelled quite a lot , spent as much time in Kerala as I could when writing , but fieldwork included quite a lot of not so nice places. Including everything from government officials to displaced villages. In Banglore I only saw offices and traffic unfortunately since lack of time. But made some stops along the way in-between southern Kerala and banglore. Drove a bike so very interesting trip.

  • Sure I'm no expert , just touched on the subject in my research. My focus was on the forced displacements done. Which was justified by many things caste , scheduled tribes that got "benefitted" by moved in to the desert. As I said very hard ingrained everywhere. but of course it's about money and power. Just like everywhere else religion , social and politics, tradition and so on can justify it.

    Just like money is about politics.

    Bad wording on my part. King of the hill politics then if you wish.

    Im just not a hippie that wants to justify shitty thing since they got high in Goa once. Who's larping uh.

  • Yea Hindu nationalism is kind of built around that. If you are poor you are poor because you deserve it. And we are rich because we deserve it etc..

    Interviewed a guy from the Communist party about caste among other thing and even they have a hard time getting people out of the caste think among their own members.

    It's so hard rooted you need a revolution to even scratch the surface of it.

  • Well ,I have never said anything about other places (beside the US comparacy), you know since we discussed India...

    Indian system is crap and this is true weather other places are crap as well.

    But you just have an issue with me since you have an issue with a GOS dev. You should just block me instead of getting your heart rate up.

    You know since you can't ban me here like you did before in another place.

  • So, I have been both working, studying, and spent leisure time in India about a year in total. I lived for 6 months outside New Delhi in the slums. Made interview among tribes and people displaced by established nature tourism. Together with my wife. Been to tourist spots as well.

    Yea you are kind of like a bunch of school kids sometimes. Just a bit scarier. I only encountered the grandiose self image besides India in the US.

    My wife could not be alone a second.

    The fascist Hindu nationalism is awful to see , for a western fascist probably laughable.

    Just to be plain: You think India is best in all the ways , for an outsider it's like a bunch of people throwing everything in a pile and letting the strongest win.

    Just the amount of people trying to prove forced marriage is so much better than the possibility for divorce or just marry who you want.

    Of course different rules based on caste , one of my Indian friends who is kind of famous in the movie business still have a hard time based on his last name and actually trying to do some good in India.

    The ads in your papers sounds like you selling cows rather than your sisters and daughters.

    Don't get me wrong there are great people , great movements and great things in India.

    But overall WTF...

    Today I would not return for leisure unless to visit friends there.
