Khushwant Singh, in his book, ‘The end of India’, published in 2003, had warned about Narendra Modi and his fascist agenda. Today, in retrospect, one has to say that the great writer was bang on!

Xi Jinping is hosting Trump and Putin. Even Pakistan is trying to mediate peace between the US and Iran. Here we have Modi gifting toffees to another prime minister, as part of what we are told is conduct of India’s foreign policy. We will soon have an IFS officer defend it too.

Exactly. The journalists of India should be able to do their work without being scared of repercussions.

Heights of embarrassment. I'm sure this will be topped by someone else soon.

The best thing on the Internet right now.

@voxnihilum @forallcurious This is a great line. The second one. Thank you.

@forallcurious He can say whatever the hell he likes and he might yet be right because clearly no one knows what really happened. Measurable speculation from a microscopic and dare I say, statistically insignificant perspective is from where we operate

The moral dichotomy of Indian society lies between garlanding or honouring the rapists and humiliating or honour killing the lovers.

27 Lakh Voters were deleted in West Bengal. These were not 'dead people' or 'bangladeshis'. These were real people who had already appealed to get their votes restored. The Supreme court could’ve delayed the West Bengal elections until the tribunals finished hearing the appeals of these voters. But they didn’t. Only around 1607 voters were restored in time by phase 2 of these elections. Almost every appeal that was heard turned out to be a wrongful deletion. In any functional democracy, this would not count as a free and fair election where a large section of voters have lost their voting rights. I'm not saying that TMC would've won for sure if they were added back, maybe BJP would still win, but the question is about the fairness of these elections. Free and fair elections are a spectrum. Ever since Delhi-Maharashtra-Bihar-Bengal, this needle has moved more and more towards being unfair. Each time somehow the opposition parties participate as usual in the electoral process thinking that they can still pull of a win despite the compromised EC, ED, CBI etc. and each time they have been proven wrong after 2024 Lok Sabha. The question is, at what point will they feel that the level of unfairness is so unfair that elections should be boycotted? I personally feel TMC should have refused to participate in these elections until all those 27 lakh appeals were finished being heard.

Hustle culture.

Of course it's the CEOs who are obsessed with AI They are used to providing absolutely zero value & their only purpose is to dictate vague requests so that other people create great things To them, AI makes that feel easier - because they'll never comprehend the value of talent
