Scythian War Horn. aka Carnyx or Ransingha Polybius (Greek historian) described how the Celts used these horns to create a "terrifying cacophony" before battle. The height of the tube allowed the sound to scream over the heads of the soldiers. In India, it adopted a Sanskrit descriptor: Ran (Battle) + Singha (Lion/Horn) = Ransingha (War Horn). The Nihang Singhs (the armed Sikh order) preserve the most martial form of this tradition. As seen in video, they use the Ransingha exactly as the ancient Celts and Scythians did: to announce movement, signal battle, and instill a sense of martial prowess.

@Symbolic1745 @BrettRace @eliasmakos Frenchies only exist because Sikhs saved their asses from Irish raiders They are cowards and racist.

@BrettRace @eliasmakos Ok, then who will fight to stop Canada becoming India?

Quebec is interesting because a pilot is dead and the biggest scandal about it concerns the language of a social media video

@indocon1111 @vjgtweets @AkhiPill wtf? my village is older than Jesus… indoaryan.com/map/?lineage=j…

@vjgtweets @AkhiPill Most of Indian Punjab was uninhabited until late 18th century, so it's hard to see any old temples there anyway.

Another great piece from @AkhiPill, chronicling his recent trip to India: "Thus, it can simultaneously be true that (1) the lives of the masses of Indian Hindus were not disrupted during Muslim rule, and that they could continue to worship at local shrines, so long as they paid their taxes, and that (2) Muslim conquests ended the large-scale patronage of Hindu literary and scholarly culture and the construction of major Hindu-Buddhist complexes throughout much of India. After all, one must ask: why did Sanskrit scholarship suddenly decline in Punjab and Kashmir in the 12th century? Why was Nalanda abandoned around 1200 CE? Where are all the ancient, grand temples of North India in the heartland of Hinduism and Buddhism? The answer is that many were destroyed, and then patronage diverted funds elsewhere, to the works of the victors. The new rulers might have been willing to endow smaller and local places of worship, and fund some translations from Sanskrit to Persian — based on the inclinations of the ruler — but generally, the new rulers of India weren’t building imperial-style temples and administering their states in Sanskrit (as with everything, there are exceptions). North Indian civilizational life was enormously disrupted after 1200 CE. The situation in the Balkans during the Ottoman Empire was similar. Many Christians in the Balkans were left alone after paying their taxes. But post-Byzantine Constantinople had no grand, imperial churches after the Ottoman conquest. The grand, massive, national churches that one can see today in Serbia and Bulgaria — like Saint Sava in Belgrade — were built only in the 20th-century after independence from Ottoman rule. Likewise, the Acropolis was restored to its current form only after Greek independence, when the state de-converted it from a mosque. The Ottomans continued to elevate many Greeks — especially as administrators over other Orthodox Christians, and as traders — and endow certain monasteries, like Mount Athos. But the Ottoman state was not eminently interested in patronizing Greek learning and funding and spreading the output of Greek history, literature and philosophy, as the previous Byzantine state was. Greek learning survived and grew in monasteries and in Renaissance Italy, but could not attain its prior glories with funds and patronage shifted elsewhere. Simultaneously, it is also true that Istanbul is a beautiful city with breathtaking mosques and an attractive Turco-Muslim heritage featuring grand bazaars and hammams. So it was in India with Sanskrit and Hindu civilization. It declined. But many Hindus lived normal lives, too, during this period. Many got rich, and prospered, taking advantage of the large empires they lived in, and their connections with other Muslim states. Many local Hindu rulers and lords maintained a level of independence and sovereignty, especially away from the river plains, in hilly, forested, and desert areas: in particular, the Rajputs and Marathas were never fully subdued. Sometimes, Hindu rulers entered in alliances with Muslim dynasties, and prospered. There are many nuances to this period that cannot be collapsed into simple narratives."

Hindu scriptural sources don't treat Punjab as part of the broader Hindu world - they explicitly define it as outsidethe boundaries of Āryāvarta (the land of the Āryas). Śatapatha Brāhmaṇa 9.3.1.24 speaks in directly negative terms about "the inhabitants of the region of the seven rivers that flow westward, i.e. the Punjab," calling them ruffians and barbarians whom one should avoid. The Dharmasūtras (Baudhāyana 1.1.2.9, Vāsiṣṭha 1.8-9) define Āryāvarta's western boundary at the spot where the Sarasvatī disappears - around modern Patiala - placing Punjab at or beyond the edge of ritually pure territory. Manusmṛti 10.43-44 lists the Kambojas, Yavanas, and Śākas (all Punjab/northwest-associated groups) among degraded peoples who fell from proper status "due to the absence of Brahmins among them." There's even the well-known rule that crossing certain rivers (like the Yamuna westward) required śuddhi (purification) upon return - Punjab was treated as ritually contaminating territory.

@vjgtweets @AkhiPill Vishal, one mystery of Muslim rule in North India that they destroyed Hindu temples all across the Gangetic belt, but seem to have left a lot of them in present day Pak Punjab intact? Like this one in Jhelum? Have any theories?

Canada strongly condemns Israel’s plans to occupy territory in southern Lebanon. Lebanon’s sovereignty & territorial integrity must not be violated. Hezbollah’s attacks on Israel must cease and they must disarm.

If you want to understand the US, this video would be a very good place to start The median American is not interested in what happens overseas. This is a constraint on the US government (voters don’t like foreign adventurism) but also liberates the government as well (you can do what you want and you don’t need to build “consensus” at home. Do most Americans support the air war in Iran? Does it matter? Even asking the question is the wrong frame in my opinion) But woe to the politician in DC who forgets The First Commandment of American interventionism: Thou Shalt Not Visit the Consequences on Americans America is very big, very rich, and usually able to externalize the downsides of its foreign policy on others. So in practice, American politicians can get away with a lot. But most countries don’t have this luxury You read a lot of moralizing commentary on X about how America’s decisions will inevitably blow back on the US. But this never really seems to happen. Believing in some sort of divine or programmed moral comeuppance is a kind of cope. It will never arrive

BREAKING: RCMP have officially charged 18-year-old Jimmy Gassner of Lloydminster with second-degree murder in connection with the March 14 shooting on the Queen Elizabeth II Highway.  Gassner was arrested on Saturday in Canoe Lake, Saskatchewan, and is being transported back to Alberta to face court proceedings. The charge follows the death of 22-year-old Birinder Singh, who was killed while driving near Leduc. Investigators confirmed today that while a suspect is in custody, they are still working to determine a motive for the incident.

@Mike17823 @DwightSinghS @yegwave fucking piece of shit

@DwightSinghS @yegwave I’m not going to hell. It’s just something that happened or that I’ve noticed in Edmonton is that a lot of there own people are the ones that are shooting each other. But they caught the guy and it doesn’t sound like he’s one of them. So I’m wrong on this one.

UPDATE | Jimmy Gassner, a resident of Lloydminster, Alberta, has been arrested and charged with second-degree murder in connection to the highway shooting and killing of Birinder Singh. The WSO has called on the RCMP to investigate whether this was a hate motivated crime.

@DerArschloch @Isari301 @steroid_druid The "Coronation Stone" of the Mughal Empire from the Red Fort, upon which all Mughal emperors were crowned, is on display at the Golden Temple. Sikhs seized it during one of their many raids on Delhi. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sikh_atta…

@Isari301 @steroid_druid Who is the heir of Mughal Empire then in your learned opinion? Do correlate the same inheritance principle with regard to the Ottomans and Safavids too.

The gunpowder empires just transformed into missile empires. Only these 3 countries make their own missiles in the whole Islamic world.

The Unitree G1 is stepping onto the court, demonstrating the ability to sustain multi-shot tennis rallies with human players. A research team from Tsinghua and Peking University developed the LATENT system, which allows the humanoid to return balls traveling at over 15 m/s. By training on "imperfect" motion fragments and applying corrective adjustments, the robot maintains an athletic, human-like style during high-speed play.

It's called Hypernormalisation, everyone knows the system is bogus, but nobody can imagine any alternative to the status quo, and so we collectively carry on as if this makes sense for lack of a conceivable alternative. People have spoken on it since before 2020 / Lockdown time. In general America is thoroughly a fake place. Nothing objectively works. The Schools for example do not work, everything the schools do is either dysfunctional or a scam and also dysfunctional, but new initiatives are cooked up, consultants are paid, grades inflated, people promoted and the kids become less intelligent. Nobody advocates any change that isn't doubling down on failure. The negotiations are a scam, everyone knows it, we know it, we know they know it, we all even mention it publicly that its a scam. The elections are are waste of time, both candidates are usually bought and paid for and if they are not they can be lawfared out. Nobody can make changes; after all "Peace through STRENGTH!" and belief that the USA must have secret alien tech or something, blah blah blah, the endless record of failure be damned. The entire economy is just an Ouroboros of tech VC's, Israeli arms dealers, and hype mean selling enshittifcation, mainly AI and data centers that now account for over 90% of the on paper economic growth, and its all just absurd amounts of electricity eaten up to make videos of strawberry's shitting out other strawberry's and emails nobody wants to write or read. Plus with this Iran war crippling energy prices, probably this will be harder to paper over how obviously bullshit it is. Why do Americans carry on knowing the economy, military, society in general is just a bunch of scams, grifts, and obvious illusions? Well, nobody in America can conceive of any other way of life. This simply IS how things are, nothing else can even be imagined and I suppose enough sense deadening comforts exist for now that this can carry on.

Oh, we are skipping mugshots now?

@bizlet7 lol

I would rather have America be Brazil 2.0 than be turned into India. The Indians they are bringing over are trying to establish an overseer class. Latin America is already used to Whites being the elite class and they are more or less fine with it. Indian bureaucratic corruption is a problem 1000x worse than the South American version.

WATCH: Sikh representative warns Bill 21 Supreme Court case threatens all Canadians' rights, forcing identity vs. career choice. "Second-class citizenship" at stake.

@g2490C @DwightSinghS @TrendPolCa Brown Sepoy

I do agree every Canadian should have the right to bear arms. I disagree with religion being involved in the state and in jobs where the state is involved. Sikhs should be arguing that the turban is more cultural than religious if they are smart. No where in sikhi does it dictate that you have to wear a pagg, it dictates you have to cover your hair, and not cut it. Its Kesh not pagg , uncut hair and beard. Stupid ass religious people too brainwashed by their identity dont even understand their own religion. The most important part about their religion is the mindfulness and mental aspect not what fucking clothes you wear and if you wear a pagg or not. Sikhs are stupid.

Looks like peel police is very selective with which mugshots they show on their social media —nonetheless, it’s sad that people think “immigrants” commit majority crimes when that’s not even the case —social Media really does impact peoples perceptions & distorts reality #cndpoli
