Deeply saddening

…for many many years Laxman’s cartoons began the day. I even had books of his cartoons that were quite popular. And one could look at it for hours, each stroke effortlessly well considered!! Brilliant (though I will add there were sometimes too many words, ironically the 'common man' rarely spoke!!). For most it was ‘common man’, for me it were the crows. He understood crow. You could look at them for eternity  

An enlightened culture attacked

The brutal incident in France is undoubtedly a serious attack on a society and the enlightened values that it stands for.  In the last few hundred years French society –with some eminent thinkers and philosophers, has been pivotal in our attempts to understand and create a just and equitable world, the foundation on ideas of modernity. The individual rights and liberty is the foundation on which progress of the societies are hinged, it opened up an amazing world that questioned the primacy of entitled world. A framework that sought to create just, wherein, individual liberty was paramount. The people around the world, particularly the oppressed lot, owe it to a large extend to France that provided space to some amazing thinkers. One would add that though these ideas on enlighten worldviews were present in most societies around the world, even in what is deemed as ‘most primitive’, but these were far and wide, blip here and there, and were mostly subjugated by dominant barbarity and rarely could find much outlet to thrive. It was in West, specifically France, that these found wider acceptance and became a way of life. It therefore became the framework that inspired and fuelled individuals to attain amazing heights. The modern values that were hinged on enquiry and frank, persistent, questioning of nature of things became foundation to egalitarian values. Technological advancements were to a large extent possible because of ideas of individual liberty and rights that consolidated these. The world owes French society a lot, and it is this foundational idea, this culture that is being attacked. 

Entitled world is much dangerous, as it has prejudices inbuilt. Religion becomes just another clever idea that gestates on feudal values. The reason why enlightened thoughts in religions rarely percolate, and if ever, confined to narrow section, individual space, a painful existence. That brings to a very pertinent question: Why don’t ordinary Muslims convert to some other religion or non-religion? They have all the reasons, indeed they should, to avoid these miserable realities. As much as lower section of Hindus must convert to Christianity as it promises better opportunities of education and progress. There is no change of god, there really never was, it is choosing the circumstances that makes one feel better. I guess it is the enlightened people or the oppressed who understand the value of these. Human beings are born into humanity and not into any religion. It is therefore incumbent on the society to provide space for choices herein. Everything must be questioned, few years back, restraint was the word I favoured on these matters, but things are changing as the world is. Even the basic norms of aesthetics are being questioned. Restraint cannot be cloaked in tolerance of brutal and fear of worst. This blackmail has to be resisted for the sake liberty and values that it upholds.

Lessons for Britain on Indian Sickularism

As I am now quite aware of ways of Indian mediocre elites, the shock is immense, the edifices are quite weak. I used to wonder why Indians are given such low value in international scene, though craving but constantly in denial, concomitantly making wonderful counter stories of greatness that doesn’t need international validation. These elites who are generally erstwhile squatters and quite fervently adhere to the exploitative framework, indeed they have to, since that is the only validation they can muster and entitled benefits accrued over generation is the sole possession. Then there is the networking that easily skims over any competitions, therefore entitled merit. They have conveniently spread across the spectrum of the society, stampeding where there is money and high moral ground to be taken. Consequently they are conscience keepers, and without much personal conscience to trouble their little primitive world they pupate. 

What differs from squatters who masquerade secularism and the right wing (sometime also referred to as Hindu nationalist by foreign media), is nothing significant. It’s a clever work that claims modernity through fig leaf of so called secularism. Secularism (essentially sickularism, the degradation) is about feeding mullahs. This act gets intense scorn from the right wing; therefore the sickularist flares it further and claim high moral ground herein from reaction to these provocations. The framework of sickularism may look egalitarian and compelling indicator of western modern values, a closer scrutiny will prove the sham. Feeding mullah becomes an end and all, not only there is a claim on minority protection but slyly mullah is strengthened to work on the votebank. Emboldened mullah demands further regression and society gets degraded and communalised. And so emerge bravehearts and bleeding hearts of liberalism while mullah acquires status of minority icon. Feeding him becomes final act of sickularist redemption.  

It need be noted in this play act squatter’s framework remains intact and is judiciously safeguarded as culture. Blatant casteism acquires new meanings, all torchbearers of sickularism relish these with gusto, indeed it also adds to the compelling narration of sickularism too as casteism divides Hindus therefore helps mullahs. How wonderful, this diversity! This wedge is exploited to its crudest possible manner. How much these cause misery to common people is none of their concern, nor the racism involved herein. In this primitive conception with feudal and entitled benefits they work egalitarian values. With such benefits squatters gain browny point without as much moving their butt an inch and ransack all that could be. Gandhi was the final con act. Now that he is well established as Mahatma –clearly proving sickular squatter’s firm control over narration in last many decades, the furious attempts to establish him as man of peace went unchallenged, or most likely pushed aside. The lowest sections of society were always vehemently against Gandhi, the devious Gandhians did drop in to meet ‘god’s people’. Gandhi had the audacity to claim that he represented all Hindus, wherein he was clearly not competent for the same nor had the authority but the cunningly built moral aura worked out the trick. The oppressed sections were stamped out, so was the narration of protest against Gandhi. 

Though the narration of oppressed section against Gandhi was pushed out in all its characteristic ferocity from the mainstream discourse another narration against Gandhi was exaggerated and readied for milking for sickularism sake. This was the right wing squatter narration, indeed which led to murder of Gandhi. You see, squatters can only acknowledge squatters, even leaders like Ambedkar didn’t match up (Ambedkar has been quite a spectacular resurrection in recent times…Guhaji quotes Shourie, and you know Shourie!…so thrives Ambedkar damning Gandhian heritage). The tradition of eulogising Godse is not new, what is new is recent attention by liberal squatter driven media. If Indians can take Gandhi as Mahatma, then they will have to also tolerate Godse cult, the moral hurt is a simple exaggeration. For common Indians these are from the same framework. Killing of an individual is undoubtedly an appalling act but barbaric nonviolence has caused much misery than all of holocaust manifolds. Gandhi as a mahatma is very much an exaggeration that has been planted on people, must add quite successfully. Therefore counter narrations should have its place in democracy. Right wing squatters as murderers of Gandhi was mainstreamed, therefore by implication against Gandhian values. Close analysis will point to the fact that Gandhi didn’t differ much from right wing squatters. They come from the same insular degrading framework with minor differences in trajectories. Nevertheless Sickular squatters in Congress milked this to hilt while they carried on their nefarious acts that included apart from other things blatant nepotism and corruption. It is not a surprise that BJP has quite easily appropriated Gandhi. That Nehru was man of scientific mind was taken care by revelation of his desires for astrology and other squatter preferences, ofcourse being a Panditji! You scratch a bit and you see they are all similar, even for that matter comrade Namboodripad, whatever compelling narration of personal tribulations and so on. This blogger want a full and complete disclosure of fate of Subhash Chandra Bose, that will surely put the role of India’s freedom fighters in its proper context. Incidentally they are groovy about Indian mercenaries who fought for imperial forces in WW1 but nothing of that sort for INA. Bose was pushed out as violent (so was brilliant Bhagat Singh) while during the same period ‘apostle of peace’ gave the clarion call, ‘sweet persuasion’, of ‘do or die’ and ensuing violence that led to millions of people massacred and displaced, it is being sold as independence. It needs amazing dexterity to weave in story of nonviolence, independence and celebrate colonial Britain’s mercenaries. And yes the brown sahibs know where the cookies are.  

  

This kind of hypocritical nonsense is what defines this society, therefore this mediocre and primitive society shouldn’t be allowed to take high moral grounds in international forums. They even had the audacity to name nuclear testing on Buddha. That is how squatters payback, the crudeness of it. Further, Indian elites have degraded European societies with their worldview that needs closer scrutiny. The swagger of arrogant sycophant like Mani Shankar Iyerji with glittering beacon has a long tale to tell. The mullah centred secularism (i.e. sickularism) has also become a mainstay in Britain. I have few questions here. Can you in the name of secularism and minority right degrade human rights? Mullah’s view is not the only understanding of Islam nor Islam the only claimant to minority, indeed nor minority only about religion. A religion that has so much of primitiveness in it cannot be allowed to hold humanity on ransom. Though egalitarian views exist they are being pushed out and a polarising degrading form of Islam is being sought to be protected as minority right and religious freedom. Furthermore what are the rights of counterviews in Islamic states? This is needed to put as necessary balance on understanding the intent of practitioner of religion. Saudi is arguably the most venom spewing society with crude worldview, how much they have caused misery in poorer societies with their petrodollar crude form of Islam is a serious matter. Mullah feeding sickular squatters in India will avoid these, as its spoils their narrations of wonderful world they create to take away attention from their stinking beacons and affiliated primitive world. 

How can entrenched patriarchy accepted as human rights? If woman is covering her face as mullah’s Islam demands then it should be equally applicable to male also.  If not, then it is violation of human rights of woman. In a devious twist (that sickular squatters in India has potential to) it is being argued as woman’s choice! Yes everyone has choice to wear what they want. We aren’t talking of individual choices here we are questioning the system here. And we find that this system is blatantly (crudely) patriarchal, acquiescing to these will therefore will be violation of human rights. Further, children brought up under such deviant/ medieval system will find it difficult be normal or accomodative, the reason why Britain finds itself asking what went wrong, as multicultural dividends blow themselves up around the world. The obnoxious practice of polygamy can exist only in mediocre society like India. This is sickular squatter’s idea of keeping right wing squatters at constant provocation as they deep chisel liberal benefits from the reactions. Polygamy can only be allowed if the same system recognises polyandry otherwise it is biased hence violation of basic rights.  In this case it is blatantly misogynistic, and Islamic countries have time and again proven it. Such amazing biases thrive to its ludicrous level in primitive Saudi. This misery is what Indian sickularism seek to proudly strut to the outside world, indeed some of them even position themselves as spokesperson of Indian culture! Overwhelming nature of patriarchal and feudal nature of society has ensconced these. 

So sickular squatters who originate from primitive conception seek to redeem themselves and divert the attention by feeding mullahs. This sickularism is a beatification process, and they constantly rub it on the right wing squatters, who are shown to be wanting on modern values. The reaction from right wing is easily played as threat to egalitarian worldview. Apart from emboldening racism as culture, it degrades people and sets in entitled mediocrity, it demeans individuals. All these while sickular squatters, in a spectacular display of hereditary cunningness, climb higher and subtler moral ground riding on mullah’s shoulders. Mullah’s worldview therefore acquires standpoint on minority. It has reached to such a ridiculous level that even in societies where they claim high social indices like kerala, mullahs fiercely demand reducing marriage age of girls, so the one who is seen as paedophile in civilised world becomes culture icon in mullah driven minority protection scheme. Sickular squatter judiciary also up the ante and tends to show some magnanimity. Mullah becomes necessary redemption tool for sickular squatters, it is an amazing conception that keeps all the cruder traditions intact as also privileges that discriminate while strutting modern world fast lane. The halo is shifted from temple precincts to greater ideals for humanity. Gandhi turned out to be the trump card. As expected they exaggerated him, so much so that one wonders whether the man was real!

One can see clear tracks of sickular squatters in Britain. Colonial regrets of coloniser morphs into patronising attitude towards former colonised, this opportunity is effectively used by Indian elite. Irony being, though Britain has reformed (nesting on colonial plunder, grand views comes easy in this luxury) Indian elite are just as primitive. Most South Asian in Britain are product of feudalistic pits, the regressive pointers from these they hawk as culture. Indians make a special case of it. Their instinctive craving for white Europeans and immense enthusiasm for monarchical references are in direct proportion to the disgust for the issues of blacks. You will rarely see them in any of these protests related to the racism, having firmly aligned themselves to the whites, they are baffled at being equated with black ‘slaves’. Innocent and unbridled souls entrenched in squatter’s world see these as an affront to their high culture and entitled world they are so used to. They therefore try to emulate the whites as an attempt to get the civilized garb. Almost all the modern references in India come from this framework, as the squatters had firm say on the narration. The reason why Indian system suffer from colonial hang-up, while elite exhibit their brown sahib credential effused in squatter’s framework in desperately hints at modernity. White Europeans always find expatriate Indians charming and agreeable lot, albeit sometimes more agreeable than expected or needed. Some even get titled as ‘Lord’, a natural trajectory for any squatter, undoubtedly an acknowledgement from god thyself. Though it needs a little tap from Aunt Elzi, and that is what takes it to newer heights of human conscience. I am told that Rushdie in his enthusiasm for freedom of expression persuasion tried to jump the queue. Lord Desaiji’s next milestone is a statue of Gandhi (there is a serious dearth of it) as a final act of redemption. Sickularism pus is overflowing and is degrading societies...

B for Bad Taliban

…and there is no good Taliban, there never was. Terrorist cannot be good for some people and bad for others. The heartrending scenes from Pakistan have numbed people across the world. As for Pakistan these were waiting to happen. Chickens know the way back home. The warning bells are ringing for some time now. When brave children like Malala are seen with suspicious by many in this society then you know the putrefaction is quite deep. Even their latest leader, Imran Khan, is no different, just another ambitious opportunist. This country probably has to go back to its foundation, and bring out something egalitarian in its dealing with the world. What is exhibited is primitive patriarchy of the religion fed by arrogant feudal leaders for their narrow ends, mixed with narration of invincibility of selves garnished from crude historical references. In such societies male valour is seen as defining attribute, like animal packs they live in primitive conception of the world. Violence therefore is a choice that is high on priority. Army tends to play major role in the society, that degrades things further.  Army intelligence is an excellent definition of oxymoron, they are incapable to be in the role of decision makers in democracy. Gen. Zia exemplified this degradation; this dimwit scoundrel was the one who help fuel radicalisation. Pakistan therefore suffers quite badly. It is tragic that children are paying the price. The society has turned cannibalistic. 

The feudal primitiveness is present in India too, but somehow it hasn’t threatened the democracy so far. Yes they do have pangs for benevolent dictator, as they are incapable of handling freedom. Freedom scares them as the mind is always tied in servility, though even the religion has hinted at enlightened freedom and other subtleties. But they chose the primitive version as the society (that is most people) is too mediocre to fathom the nuances of subtle thoughts. They are stuck to primitive references. From these putrid pits Indians negotiate modernity.     

In most Indian movies ‘men in uniform’ (even woman, nowadays, as a case of twisted gender parity attempts by mediocre ‘artists’) are saviours. Almost every movie is about cops as saviours, or alpha male syndrome and angst herein. Violence therefore is the priority on which actions get defined and feudal arrogance exhibited as necessary tradition that sugar-coats these. These are popular narration that is consolidation of most Indian dealings. Despite sophisticated veneer primitive Indians have latent violence lurking everywhere; thankfully it’s rarely been channelized as societal response. It’s dispersed between the stratified nature of disunited society, the higher one cannibalising the lower, while the lower the lowest. This is the nature of society, and the culture herein. The violence is much localised, therefore nonviolence is built as a potent weapon –an all-encompassing thought, while little realities are dealt in all its brutality. The all-encompassing thoughts are taken as further from reality as possible, it adds to the allure of purity, the grandness of these are therefore the expertise. This involves amazing level of cunningness, manipulation as instinct and sniffing opportunities as way of life. This cleverness and feudal advantage found haven in democracy, lately market has made it incredible India. India and Pakistan are very similar society, religion is what makes it different. The undercurrent is the same. It really gets tight when feudal lords from both sides meet for the sake of peace.
