> What's your logic to limit affirmative action to only public sector which covers just 3% of jobs? wait till he learns that the "Private Sector" is also a single digit percentage of jobs Agriculture and tiny informal firms employ the majority of workers in India.
@Charvaksmriti 5% bengali households have a washing machine, less than 1/3 have a fridge, less than half use clean cooking fuel. this doesn't sound like wealth to me. i cannot imagine a comfortable life without these basics.
@devsdey @ShamikaRavi @MamataOfficial @AITCofficial @abhishekaitc @MahuaMoitra @FinMinIndia 1. Growth rates can be charted in log-scale, unless any data point is negative-which isn't in the original chart. 2. Even if you remove the log-scale the overall narrative remains the same for WB - last ranked state among urban exp and among the slowest in rural! (1/2)
See the tweet @ShamikaRavi, a member of the Economic Advisory Council to the PM. Full of statistical fallacies and deliberate rhetorical inflation. Please see my points in the tweet chain. #EconTwitter @MamataOfficial @AITCofficial @abhishekaitc @MahuaMoitra @FinMinIndia
a long time ago i had the experience of chatting irl with someone well known on twitter, well connected, well platformed, influential, etc. He was smart, seemed to have domain expertise in his technical field. But gradually over the course of the conversation I realized he didn't actually know what he was talking about. He used complicated words, but in subtly off ways, and would reply to questions with things that sounded like answers but actually weren't.He'd confidently reference concepts that I think he assumed I didn't know, but I did know, and I knew that the term he used didn't actually have anything to do with his claim, etc. But his confidence was intense and radiating, and the speed at which he talked and the complex vocabulary he used really disguised what I perceived to be both a lack of deep understanding of the material and also a lack of self-awareness that he didn't have deep understanding! I've def met people who disagree with me online who I think *do* engage deeply with the concepts, but this specific one didn't, and it was a little blackpilling for me to realize that he had such a following from a bunch of people who couldn't tell the difference.

As a wise man once said…
I think we don't talk enough about how shoplifting is almost non-existent in Indian cities while it's so common in America, you can find endless videos online of Americans carelessly stealing shit just a weird phenomenon. "Low trust society" theorists must be in shambles.
exactly the kind ass backwards reasoning you do when your entire life & social circle lives in a heavily segregated bubble. ask yourself what is so special about india that prevents the proliferation of Wallmarts where shoplifting can happen in the first place
Amreeka is more ****ed up than you can imagine.
