Has North Korea become a chamaar nation?

 

This is precisely what the headlines would be at the BBC or The Guardian and all the international level white people’s savior media with strong presence of caste cannibals as arbitrators of moral values with entitlement itch as representors. The reason why this is not the case is not because of any benign reason (indeed chamaar is very much used in hindi as slur) but racist colonials were fed with psychopath squatters from south India specifically TamilNadu -who took to colonizer's language to get close to power, as is the defining characteristic, in the process infecting the language. The reason why “Has North Korea become a pariah nation?” is acceptable headline for fattened fluffs in West. This is just a simple example of how squatters degraded the world over the decades as they consolidated depraved narrations to control herd. As much as pariah is normalized into English, Gandhi is pushed as international peace messiah overseeing moral bearings of the world while vigilant caste cannibals with serious entitlement itch pose as representors (castetva forces spread across the world in gravy positions are obsessively watchful as they mob and snarl against tarnishing this hereditary cud chewer while blunting the truth and his regressive world view with inbred semantic jugglery, they shove Gandhi onto common people as mahatma through institutional power of the state, through control over history, constructing statues in public places -when people didn’t even have as basic amenity as toilet -to keep it firmly in pattern of humiliation and play of fate, naming all major roads as MG road was insidious plan to get mahatma onto people’s psyche, meanwhile humanist leaders and egalitarian traditions were sidelined or appropriated as was opportunistic). British dictionary Cambridge or Oxford (considered highbrow by colonized minds, the reason I too followed) defines pariah as ‘not liked, respected or trusted’ while another defines as “despised, rejected, avoided” “despised so much that refused to be associated” so on. Now understand that back in putrefying society putrid pits of caste is sold as ‘community’ and when it reaches appropriate horniness you get visions of ‘unity in diversity’ (likes of vermin tharoor see this as variety of defecations on his diversity thali, the eloquence of defining these wonders is his regrettable life’s mission while he salivates for power). So, understand by this definition Cambridge/Oxford dictionary is defining a ‘community’ as “not liked, respected or trusted” while “pundit”, another of caste cannibalized word presented to English by vermins, is defined as “a person with great learning” “authority, expert” “title of respect”. This is how caste cannibals tangoed with racist colonial exploiters to work on semantics of narration as they fought and struggled for freedom. Quite a struggle. While some passionately working for freedom were sent to Andamans -a horrible prison system perpetuated by inhuman racist colonizers, others like Bhagat Singh sacrificed their life, some like Bose bravely organized revolt and got killed…these supreme sacrifices were sought to be undermined while select few were elevated as their litter became caretakers and god’s gift. These values of hereditary entitlements fit quite well in castetva narration hence were replicated in all fields and celebrated while the putrefying society went through cronyism, nepotism, corruption, systemic neglect and exploitation. It is no surprise that India languishes at the bottom of all known social indices while high end education institutions like IIT/IIM asserted narration of manipulative values of extraction and beggar’s mindset of acquisitions. Idea of education was degraded and reduced to another opportunity to gather and enhance fate and blessing rather than knowing, understanding or going deeper into area of study. Meanwhile primary education was neglected so that majority are trapped in their fate and pray like beggars for avatars in the form of corrupt self-serving politicians or bureaucrats trapped in colonial ways.     

The positive outcome of pandemic is that I was finally able to break the habit of reading newspaper. As a kid newspaper were habituated as important, and this unfortunately made common people fodder to manipulation by devious arbitrators. Indian journalists, as it turns out, are insipid louts with minimum of skills or caliber with limited aim to control narration for money and power (there were some columnists I looked forward to, these exceptions too have dwindled and vanished. Internet has opened international access, and quality, some of social media sites are better, as also the reader has the control to choose what to visit and read. Also, AI will very soon take away jobs of these exaggerated aggregators of information. Ah the schadenfreude of seeing mediocre indian journalist made irrelevant). Meanwhile the struggle of third-rate Indian media is to manipulate vested debauched values into egalitarian framework to ensnare the herd while for others it’s crude loud vulgarities of exhibitionism to get money and power. Fluffs in west sometimes mistake these for vibrant media (referring Indian chaos of mediocrity as mindboggling and vibrant is another of western trope), and that it seems is now threatened! Indian media was always compromised to the system of benefit. They reflect the limitations and challenges of putrefying pit. Sometime back I was in Chennai so accessed free copy of TheHindu. The fellow has written about CR Rajagopalchari and love for Shakespeare, and ofcourse of correct English diction and pronunciation as an extended world of competence, care and jolly life of ‘rajaji’. The article could be mistaken for kennel keeper eulogizing to elevate the breed value. For these high-end raconteurs everything about their personal life is meant for public consumption indeed as a learning for common people. Their life history is essentially meant to be our history. Their likes and dislikes are touchstones of our reality. Such is the highest self-estimation. And as they work into intricacies of English, which is meant to awe struck common people, I really haven’t come across any protest, indeed revulsion, against use of caste cannibalized words like pariah in English. Clearly Gopalkrishna Gandhi doesn’t measure anywhere near the high pedestal he has assigned himself humbly, and yes if hindutva hadn’t spoiled the party (mahol kharaab) they would be guiding us to heaven on earth. Not only are caste cannibals complicit in introducing these extremely objectionable words and meanings into English but also the criminal negligence that is characteristic and sold as tolerance. These caste cannibalized words must be expunged from English language at the earliest.

Tamil Nadu was once known for vibrant anti-caste movement and humanist tradition which was converted essentially into a laboratory of castetva forces. All the benign local gods and traditions were systematically appropriated into squatter infected hinduism. Rulers of the region were known to be brave and industrious who ventured across the oceans until they were appropriated into squatter’s wasted ways as society was reduced to bickering groups and collapsed. Caste cannibalized history will not teach this. Anti-caste movements were essentially meant to smoke squatter out of sanctums and purify the society of their scourge, the infection. Squatter aligned with power to spread misery and strengthened control, first with kings, next with colonizers and then democratic institutions were used to spread their poison into society. Wherever Gandhi spread, Periyar was pushed out, caste cannibalism had easy run with powerful state machinery especially bureaucracy was used to appropriate narration. Humanist movies were replaced with temple hopping heroes normalizing infection spewing squatter values. Even game of wastrels -cricket, carry temple as symbol and is specially designed for squatters to display sporting skills!

Within few decades after independence humanist movements and aspirations were quelled. TN is now conundrum of caste cannibals where even children are not spared. It is now a shitpot of caste pits and a success story of deviousness of castetva forces. As humans are degraded into bickering snarling rabid dogs and fatalistic herds, squatters on high pedestal claim victory against Tamil sub nationalism. Indeed, all these deviousness and cruel ways were meant for benign purpose! It is to save us! It also is the favorite theme of third-rate Indian movies that eat up human mind into absolute rot. Some souls are born for great purpose, and despite all apparent indication of depravity, the hero finally pounds the villain -and these are cherished ‘scenes’ for artistically limited and aesthetically challenged or any hint of compassion, and establish the order. This is entertainment. Meanwhile caste cannibals also controlled culture markers (likes of Gopalakrishna Gandhi also decide on high reputation awards as also is point person for lazy fattened fluffs from West to understand exotic India or in case they find the urge to give awards. They are gate keepers who are keeping us safe!). There are reasons for common people to have high expectation from Hindutva. Will hindutva embolden benign nature of Hinduism (ofcourse within the limited frame of anachronistic religion) or will it fall for the well laid traps of castetva. Cult of blessed human born to lead is one such trap which turns competent leaders into megalomaniac. You can see such degradation all across the country, these narrations also pander herd and eulogize sycophantic followers as they spiral into oblivion.  This society uniquely lacks democratic values. Change must start with mind, the thoughts, and the factors that influence.

Let me relate an incident that happened sometime back which showcases how state machinery and bureaucracy were entrenched as agents of castetva forces and how they degraded society over last many decades. I was taking mock interview for aspirants for high end bureaucracy of the country -something I am engaged in for last one decade, categorize it as least stupid of job of all stupid jobs since it also helps me learn things and share while facing the worst valuation of education. The personal information of candidates carry extra details of caste with subcaste and what not such is the concern that is normalized. I am sure with depraved sociologists pitching with insights (incidentally “What is sanskritisation?” is favorite question among retired wasted bureaucrats. Atleast the lout MN Srinivas spoke good English that impressed colonial racist britishers!). Since these details are part of administrative process for the reason of reservation -essentially a reflection of degraded nature of society hence the need for such steps, sharing these personal details for interview is really not necessary (since no such elaboration sought from those who do not need such benefits) unless ofcourse there is something sinister that is sought to be communicated. So, the interview panel chairperson -essentially a wasted lout whose life is paused on the year he got into ‘service’ hence seniority, the eternal hierarchy over others he craves (limited miserable life paid by the taxpayers) was keen on caste of a “SC” boy -who was a medical doctor (with above average performance in medical college -the retired lump of a human found it wanting which was immediately rectified by co-panelist). When the candidate was not able to answer caste related query. He told the hapless candidate to learn about his identity, what was their “traditional profession” (so much gandhian thoughts have gone into it). Surely the line of questioning did fall into Atrocities against SC Act, I thought. People keep quiet so as to not to get into trouble with caste cannibals nurtured into immense power. This is how castetva forces have worked out their devious ways. Hindutva is expected to rectify these and refine narration. Unfortunately though even after so many years in power they haven’t really impacted castetva narration much. There are two reasons to this, one, castetva have ruled for decades and these debauched charlatans were taking advantage of entrenched power narration of pre-independence. It helped consolidation of power and seemingly stability at the cost of systemic exploitations of majority of fate driven residue of humans while enriching few. Second, hindutva lacks intellectual gravitas something brought in by their own claims of mythical insights, ridiculous suppositions and related nonsense as also the fact that English was worked by castetva forces as merit hence sanskritised hindi adds to nothing to impress. They need smarter people of caliber to work on wrenching out narration that is entrenched for decades, as also to gain credibility from majority of people, at this point it's hinged on emotions. Ofcourse that doesn’t mean hindutva is facing any major political threat in near future except arrogance leading to implosion from within.

Beware the Heat Wave


 India is a climate vulnerable hotspot. All studies points to Indian subcontinent to be the worst affected by heat wave region in the world. A heat wave in 2003 killed 70, 000 people in Europe. Imagine the scene with millions of extremely marginalized vulnerable impoverished populations with low health infrastructure access. It's a frightening scenario that has potential to be real. In the last few years intensity and frequency of heat has increased substantially, even temperate regions were experiencing heat domes. European Satellite Agency recorded 55*C land surface temperature in some regions of NW India, places even crossing 60*C. Last year regions in India faced heat waves in March itself which was unprecedented. And this year we are going to see impact of El Nino which will increase the temperature further with less rainfall predicted. So, take a moment to reflect on the enormity of what we are facing. 

Cities with congested vulnerable population will face serious crisis. While indolent greedy policy makers and semi-literate insolent richer section keep constructing glass heat trapped buildings with higher air conditioning load (that is replicated from regions with entirely different ecosystem) the heat island effect is going to make the matter worse. If they are living under the illusion that we can air-condition our way through climate crisis then they are woefully mistaken. Heat wave not only takes away lives but also livelihood and productivity. Environmental impact on economy will have a cascading effect. Hot region like India has tradition of heat resistant buildings and thermal comfort constructions which is being sidelined in the greed for spurious understanding of development that is meant to feed meaninglessness of GDP. Including heat resistance (mitigative action like cool roof) as building code is urgently needed in cities. Cities have 6*C more temperature than surrounding region while congested areas have 6*C more than the city while indoor heat in low ventilated homes can be 8*C more. Imagine the scene how the highly vulnerable millions of people are existing in big cities. Take the example of Delhi the heat wave days in the city was 3 in 2021 which increased to 17 in 2022.  The Ministry for the Future (by Stanly Robinson) is a futuristic fiction book that opens with description of heat waves that kills 20 million people in India. People are running around for cool space (‘moving into sunlight was like pushing into bonfire’) while others cry for help and die of exhaustion. There are power cuts while generators spew toxic air, even limited water is warm, while dirty lake, where hoards went to cool their body, is ‘warmer than blood’. I can easily relate to these scenes. First two years of my stay in Delhi was worse before I decided to take action and earn substantially (mostly con acting with clear advantage of English in pathetic place with mostly despicable people -always abusing and cursing), ofcourse careful not to fall into meaningless wage slavery of 9-5 routine. Congested places with small rooms with no trees or open space but noisy polluting traffic snarls were heat traps. Water was limited and that too was warm from the sun, the building heated up and floor of the roof burned if you try to sleep on terrace. Food gets spoiled easily and one has to be wary of restaurants, sticking to bananas or so, while substantial investment went for bottled water. There was no electricity for most part of the day hence they switched to smoke spewing generators. Search to cooler spaces was beginning of spending times in library. Even in my mid-20s my reading habits were embarrassingly confined to comics and ofcourse encyclopedia (since people rarely opened these huge books it also smelled different) and within two-three years gobbled up best of international literary works. I finished all the books of Dostoevsky, Chekov, Kafka and Naipaul in one summer itself…to cut the story short heat waves are going to severely impact already vulnerable population. 

Not that government is not doing anything. NDMA has come out with Heat Action Plans (HAP), and more than 100 cities/districts have HAP. But as is the case these are just guidelines while actionable HAP are limited. Hindutva must come out of Castetva value system of complacency and blessedness -a constant carefully laid pitfall that they will eventually fall into. Squatting and espousing higher morals with minimal actions or even intent is a tradition that is being inculcated into institution. Power is defined as how many people are under your control or influence which is exhibited by giving misery (“paaklam” was once commonly used word of Tamil in bureaucratic circles of Delhi, euphemism for delay it or not be bothered, while in Kerala the common Hindi word they use to connect to migrant hindi worker is “jaldi karo bhai”). Reaching late for an appointment, meeting or gathering, is daily act of showcasing power which is then emulated by herd seeking power. Delaying decision, not sharing information so on, is an extension of showcasing power and lessons on fate. This blessedness will not work when situation is dire. Hindutva must get its act together and propose new work culture and value system (unfortunately they too are trapped in udan katola and gau mutra defeatist values of exceptionalism and spurious self-importance lacking intellectual vigor or gravitas).

Another issue is lack of dynamic data. Data is important for evidence-based actions. Heat waves are complex and micro vary with local ecosystem, even the definition changes with plains, hills and coastal. Heat index is dependent on dynamic factors like humidity, diurnal variation, wind movement, persistence so on. IOT and latest sensor-based data becomes crucial. It helps in early warning systems, as also creating effective prediction models with AI. All government data must be made accessible to anyone. This includes SAFAR (System of AirQuality and weather Forecasting And Research) data. Why are these being kept secret? There is no space for these kinds of mindsets. Tackling challenges like Heat Waves needs collaborative effort. It has multidimensional cascading impact including food security. Millions of people’s life and livelihoods are at stake.

Amor fati 

Winged seeds of mahogany
Spirals in delight of miracle
Free to pulse the beat of earth
Dance to the joyest silence
The moment it breaks from the tree
And floats to the ground
In these two realities
The past
The future
It brims in probable and improbable
Possibilities and impossibilities
Yet in retrospect trace the trail
As was meant to be
A particle in double slit of eternal occurrences and recurrences
A fractal in infinite loop within and without 
A burden only a Sisyphus could fathom

Not a low hanging fruit

 

There is nothing wrong with anyone making any documentary against or in favor for any event or anyone. Truth is always made subjective by powerful entities, and in this case of high stakes of power, money and connections, manipulated to the need. Despite lots of shortcomings India is not a banana republic where anything goes. Indian courts have investigated, Indian media has eviscerated it in whatever ways they wanted, and crucially the investigation agencies were under the arch adversary -hell bend on politically decimating opponent. Nothing came out of it. The highest court of the land found no case. As a common person these references are enough for me to evaluate. Meanwhile note that some high functionaries were prosecuted for communal violence that broke out after ordinary people -in this case hindu pilgrims, were burned alive in train. Days that followed saw mobs killing people -mostly muslims, while police forces were overwhelmed. This blogger was keenly observing the scene, and even wrote a short story. Even then -almost two decades back, I was quite clear on not mentioning any religion, and not even seeing this as a human act but madness of fringe -that was encapsulated in the act of a mad man not in control of his faculties (short story collection is available at Amazon). It’s impossible for normal human to kill another human, it needs madness, and religion is fertile ground for madness that segregates and dehumanizes. Hence although religions instigate the madness to kill, the killers are all same. So, in effect systems that dehumanize creates the same type of dangerous people across the divide of religions. Religion creates herd, market creates similar herd, they can easily switch sides. They lack basic human qualities of critical thinking or self-reflection or awareness. They can easily be manipulated.

So, although anyone can make a documentary the fact here is that it was not made by Tumbaktu Broadcasting Corporation it was made by BBC -British Broadcasting Corporation. British carry colonial legacy that was carefully nurtured and indulged by castetva forces into narration of benevolence and competence deviously sidetracking history of plunder and brutalities of racist colonizers. It’s a symbiotic relation that eventually resulted in transfer of power -sold as independence. Foundation of Indian democracy was built on british legacy and caste cannibal's fantasy. It was meant to control common people. Castetva forces therefore set out to control narration into its brute ways to showcase proprietorship over common people. Since they were here to impress the West, they had no use of nationalism while patriotism was negotiable for bigger stakes carefully packed as higher moral ground that common people were deemed incapable to understand. So even though it created untold misery to common people they always took highest moral grounds of absurdities harming national interest – which essentially meant delegating ensuing misery to common people, while counting brownie points associating with West -who saw these as wonderful attributes of benign civilization -of mahatmas and pundits, nothing could be further from the truth. British exploitative elite therefore had embryonic influence and control over India through castetva forces -who saw same level of blessedness with racist feudals hence copied their mannerism as liberal. They also defined merit and competence, a frame not different from squatter value system, meant to keep common people afar but given leeway as achievable talent. This meaningless pursuit of rituals created a mediocre society seeking blessedness through any means and cringeworthy characteristics of sycophancy towards higher forces. Herd was trained to please to alter fate.   

To cut the long story short English gained definite credibility over common people. So, an English speaker is more credible than someone speaking their own language. Imagine the level of degradation. English is talent as it was not achievable by many (replacing Sanskrit, language as power to segregate and rule) -they even hinged merit to grammar and competence to pronunciation (even this was dealt through short story by this blogger!). British was cultivated by effete Indian elite as signifier of high standards. It seeped down to common people, through institutions and carefully orchestrated mass media and entertainment. It is this influence that is the concern here. It is this influence that is being used by castetva forces -and their hang around salivating for lost power. Entrenched castetva forces are plotting to push out hindutva even while harming the nation state. However hard they may try herd has moved out of them. Though I have little respect for herd but common people are not stupid. They can easily see through the games. By its very nature castetva had to evolve into hindutva and merge.  

BBC lacks credibility, and in the recent times there are serious allegation of corruption and nepotism at the highest level in this organization. BBC has lost precious credibility that came with years of sustained efforts, atleast that is what we were made to believe. They have history of manipulation hence cannot be standard of probity. Indeed, british systems are thriving on feudal values, nepotism and wanton greed while supplicating to status quo. Britain is not even a democracy in its humanistic definition of representation nor in collective values of care or concern. They are debating clubs run by feudal manipulators miming as leaders. It’s a society were words have lost meaning while sentences weave fantasies of high bearing to win the argument and celebrate at the nearest bar. British accent must be the new standard for incompetence and hypocrisy. Britishery is the real thuggery.       

Indian government is wrong to ban the BBC documentary. It’s a violation of freedom. Meanwhile concerned people and society at large must see that these do not seep through colonial mindset (nurtured by castetva forces to gain credibility). The very fact that discredited war mongers responsible for invasion of Iraq, massacring and maiming of hundreds and thousands of ordinary people, and the irresponsible incompetent facilitators of lie (i.e. british media) are posing as authority over former colony while undermining its democratic institutions and judicial system is a serious attempt to infringe and showcase superior bearing that common people in erstwhile colony are expected to be impressed. It’s an appalling show of strength. It's also an attempt at redeeming themselves in the eyes of mullahs (in the game of high stakes common people…in this case muslims, are expendable. So, you kill hundreds and thousands and then attempt to redeem by pleasing local mullah -as is the case with any religion head these are farthest from common people). Its an attempt to pander the club of influence so as to control narration. India is seen as low hanging fruit by these posers encouraged by castetva forces -in utmost blessed assurance as representor (the proprietary assuredness is astounding -a product of centuries of inbreeding and fantasy of exceptionalism).

Democratic values must be upheld but in the meantime those who take India to be a low hanging fruit must be dealt stringently. Despite serious upheavals in Indian subcontinent and in most part of the world India remains relative oasis of sanity (ofcourse there are problems). Vested interests shouldn’t be allowed to play mischief. It will be a challenge to deal with these powerful interests within the ambit of democracy and freedom of expression.
