AI seems to be absolutely digesting everything not merely the text but its inner emotional state without prompting/programming. What does that mean? Does it eventually use the emotion to take over?

Please Don’t be so concerned with these online trends. This looks like a paid propaganda. I doubt any on the ground targeted ethnic hatred.

I have no issue with anything you said. You do not have to justify why you live in America. I am not posting this in normal times. To repeat what I said in my post, a good number of Americans no longer want us there. And for those Indians who don't yet have the green card or US citizenship, precarious life on the H1B visa is another big issue. So I suggested it may be time for some people to reexamine the "where should I live" question. I live in a small village in a very rural corner and use the local roads (some good, some bad), shop in the local shops, enjoy roadside tea, join the feast at the local temple and so on. I am quite happy with life here, in my little corner of Bharat. My presence makes life slightly better for local people and I am grateful to be able to make that small difference.

Sure, the fortress is breached! The collapse of Marxist/Colonialist history is slow but arrived for sure. @Utpal_Kumar1 traces the follies masterfully

Congratulations! One of the best books on how Indian history was manipulated by these so called historians er… distorians.
Utpal Kumar@Utpal_Kumar1
A year ago, in January 2025, my second book Eminent Distorians: Twists and Truths in Bharat’s History was released. With Mahadev’s blessings and your immense love, it has been a remarkable journey. The book has not only sold well but, more importantly, sparked a much-needed discourse on how Bharat’s history has long been distorted. What gives me even greater satisfaction is seeing the term “distorians” entering popular conversation for our so-called “eminent historians.” And now, one year later, I am delighted to share that the Hindi edition is here — Prakhyat Galpkar. The title, beautifully coined by its translator Arun Tiwari, captures the spirit of the original. Arun ji has poured his heart into ensuring that the essence, intensity, and intent of the English version resonate just as powerfully in Hindi. My heartfelt thanks to my publisher, @praveenBlu ji, and the entire team at @BluOneInk for their unwavering support. As the book is available on #Amazon (amazon.in/dp/9365477328) on preorder, I seek your blessings and encouragement once again. Support this book — not merely because it carries my name, but because it is a sincere effort to reclaim and restore the true history of Bharat. Looking forward to your continued love and support. 🙏 #newbookrelease #books #EminentDistorians #PrakhyatGalpkar #newbookalert

Write it! Send it to them as a courtesy. Publish it regardless of whether they publish it or not.

Hindus should fight this
Amita Sachdeva, Advocate@SachdevaAmita
🚨 Must Watch: Section-wise Exposure of the Draconian Anti-Temple Land Bill Maharashtra’s Devasthan Inam Nirmulan Draft Act 2026 is a direct attack on Hindu temples. In this video, I have explained section by section how this Bill snatches temple lands, legalises encroachments, discriminates against Hindus, and violates our religious rights. Every section is dangerous for Sanatan Dharma. We demand: Complete Withdrawal of this Bill! Please submit your strong objections before 5th June 2026.Jai Bhavani! Jai Shivaji! Protect Temple Lands. Protect Hindu Dharma.#Bill_Against_Temple_Land #WithdrawTheBill #SaveTempleLands #StopTempleLandGrab

I don’t understand this tomb tourism in India! In Delhi they turned all tombs into tourist spots along with Taj Maha and everything in between. Same with Hyderabad; they try to promote those ghostly tombs in Hyderabad as great tourist spots. You go there and it feels so eery.

Exactly! They never became us. They were just Settler-Colonizers! Nothing more or nothing less. India went through 4 types of exploitative colonization. The Timurid colonization was extremely exploitative.
Aabhas Maldahiyar 🇮🇳@Aabhas24
“The Samarkand Syndrome: Why Babur and family never became ‘us’”! I write for @IndiaToday arguing why Timurids (wrongly called Mughals) never saw Bharat as home. This essay dismantles the myth that they had become Indianised post Babur. indiatoday.in/opinion/story/…

The collapse is clear but we should know how to proceed now! Folks realized how artificial their constructions were. Although they call it “Marxist” history, it’s just colonial history with some window-dressing here and there. We need to develop our own frameworks to understand our history.

When ‘eminent historians’ were put in the dock: Romila Thapar and the collapse of Marxist monopoly firstpost.com/opinion/romila… - @Utpal_Kumar1 Between Romila Thapar’s warnings on the rise of ‘non-historians’ in her memoir and a recent viral clip disputing her interpretation of Patanjali lies the story of fading Marxist monopoly in Indian historiography. The real challenge before Indian historiography today is not the existence of competing narratives, but the treatment of one ideological school as the sole custodian of intellectual legitimacy while dismissing all dissent as ignorance l

That’s the Left for you. They have no integrity. They will do anything to get power. Once in power they don’t care about anything or anyone.

Fun fact "Mother" Teresa is from Albania, a tiny country in Europe Communists banned Christianity in her native Albania So she came all the way to India to preach her religion Here in Calcutta, the Communists helped her spread her religion THAT is how ruthless politics is Politics is never based on emotion.

40 offenses! Are they illegally entering to commit crimes?
Naomi Canton@naomi2009
Seven Afghan nationals, who all arrived in the UK on small boats or via other clandestine illegal methods, have been charged with 40 offences in relation to grooming and raping two young girls in their early to mid teens. The offences they are charged with include multiple counts of rape and human trafficking with each of the men facing multiple charges. Six of them live in Norwich and one lives in Scotland. They have all been remanded in custody. All of them have already been granted refugee status after making asylum claims. norfolk.police.uk/news/norfolk/n…

The Komagata Maru incident is sad reminder of how discriminatorily Indians (there was only India at that time) were treated in North America and how our ancestors were oppressed under colonialist regime at home in India.
Mark Carney@MarkJCarney
The Komagata Maru tragedy is one of the darkest chapters in our history — a moment where Canada failed to uphold our values, with horrific consequences. Today, we honour the memory of all the passengers, their descendants, and their communities who suffered: pm.gc.ca/en/news/statem…

Wonderful initiative!
Asha Jadeja Motwani@ashajadeja
We pulled off an incredible India related conference at Stanford hosted by our students. SIPEC. Having these smart politicians speak to the students and the larger Silicon Valley community was received with great enthusiasm and engagement. I hope to enable many more of these. 🇮🇳🇺🇸🇮🇳🇺🇸. For me it was a treat getting to know young politicians like Annamalai and Tejasvi Surya. And of course, our brilliant author Shashi Tharoor, now a full-time politician. These people to people relationships are the connective tissue that launches important platforms like the Stanford India conference. Motwani Jadeja Foundation was the proud sponsor. youtube.com/live/W6TUrnN_B…

Yes, it was that bad. They had a battalion full of these captured slaves- thrown first to die in war. And the remaining are sold in the slave markets. The largest slave markets of the world were in Sultanate/Timurid (Moghul)- Multan, Lahore are the number 1 and 2 respectively- for largest slave markets.

@ProfVemsani Was it that bad, what they did, and the numbers taken away for slavery?!

See the charakha in the back. And Gandhi said he couldn’t find charkha in the 1920s households. You can imagine how much our ancestors were forced to change to become serfs and dependent labor. They killed our culture and skills so they can use us as servants. Colonialist regime is criminal!
