Oh shit distro tube. Yeah that’s true.

Neet and the stuff surrounding it have been volatile here for a long time. Especially undergrad one. The pg exam and further are whole different can of worms.

I have commented before about how the exams are conducted with corporate involvement. So there’s much to think about when looking for people making it through favors from sangh.

But the entrance exams in my country have been contentious for decades. Its pretty hectic. There’s a lot of self harm among students who attend them.

I’m not collected with my thoughts right now. But I’ll levae it with this : Since SAPs and massive privatization from 90s onward have been devastating. That has led to this ruin of education broadly.

I mean a country which in and of itself is been prominent in conducting the most deplorable violence on so many countries. Trying to curb any civil rights for the people the country subjugated. Regardless of its turmoils external or internal they kept what the imperialist west and its ambitons intact. And they kept going several lengths to keep it intact.

What I am trying to say is I don’t think america is going mask off in 2 years. If its history any indication it was off all the time.

I used zsh, urxvt and konsole. I do prefer zsh. Urxvt is nice too.

I disagree. I put the nation wide exam as an example to show how this data is being given to a private entity. The state already has consolidated this type of data with the aadhar system they put. They even make people re submit the data in order to keep it up to date. Aadhar is linked to every thing ranging from loans or license or voter id. They even linked it to rural schemes for employment and it was collosal wreck.

Also any branch of the police or military already do surveillance on people who are deemed radical by the sangh. That is why I included the pegasus software in the comment. The surveillance apparatus is already well prepped at targeting anti hindutva sentiment and curbing it. The whole bhima koregaon affair is a good example of it.

I hate to say this but I don’t know what any of this is. I tried reading this but I am still clueless. Sorry.

I’ll paint a picture of India cause I live here:

Long ago when there used to be nation wide exams the procedure used to be : give a brith date proof and completion of school. The exam centre just verified that.

Years later as in recent years, the centers which conduct exams have been run by corporations. They take eye scans, fingerprints, photos, addresses, schooling data and much more. This includes students who are finishing school to graduates and post graduates.

Now why am I talking about this. Well to illustrate on what level data is being collected very openly and also being sold off.

Also India’s fascists have been pushing for very obvious racist citizenship plan which is just a glorified ethnic cleansing program.

Not to mention all the leaks regarding usage of Mossad software pegasus to spy on countless people and even get some of them killed.

So all of that makes me wonder why India is not a prime example of surveillance state. Hmmmmmmmm

Try like a dns filter like rethinkdns or pi hole or nextdns.

My dad and I watched interstellar at the theater when it came out. Halfway through it the characters arrive at some icy base. The icy base is marked by a large American flag. My dad leaned into to say that westerners can’t help themselves from planting the American flag and be very exceptionalist.

With any media under the american hegemon its one way or the other going to peddling what the empire deems fit.

I feel like I’m talking over you. I didn’t say china is right or whatever. I said north east front doesn’t factor into current push against china and people like sankar don’t really have much to say beyond the western push. That is the gist.

I didn’t say bjp bad china good. I outlined what the admin under bjp is like towards north east.

I think my comment in about usa nuke and the follow up line was unlcear. I was just saying time has shifted since then and pak was the concentration rather than china leading into war on terror. I didn’t mean trade in 60s, I meant India doesn’t mind china allying with pak, cause they wanna trade. Not in 60s sorry. I meant currently.

Again my whole comment was to say India currently doesn’t need the war in 62 to push for war now. They just wanna push western word now at this point. If it comes to any confrontation they probably want to redefine borders and steamroll china. It won’t probably get to it. That is all I meant. But I’m sure they want to negotiate since 2020.

Sangh/RSS didn’t exist in 1962.

This is probably the most laughably untrue I have read. When do you think they started existing lol. Sorry but Indian fascism rose around 1920s along with other movements in europe like italian or german. Savarkar one of the pillars of the movements wrote his framework in 1923. That was very central and instrumental for hedgewar who founded rss 2 years after (savarkar published in '23) in 1925.

When I mentioned sangh in my comment I was talking how they conduct their affairs along north east. And how they want to shape it. Like caa or with manipur currently.

I only contextualized north east india and the current way its dealt by the administration in my comment. But I will reiterate. People like sankar want a war at behest of the west and as much a western war hawk would. And he doesn’t need the border issue to rattle it cause the radio free asia shit is good enough.

None of what I mentioned was ahistoric. I don’t blame everything on Bjp.

I don’t think you get what I mean by Indian government doesn’t care about north east. North east is by far neglected and underdeveloped. Most from the Ne have to move to down south or towards other states to find a like living where they get constantly demonized. The manipur pogroms were vile and are a demonstration of how the admin handles anything there. The rohingya genocide is very horrifying and is a systematic one. I know what the rohingya genocide is. I live in south india and there’s decent amount rohingya’s who escaped to come seek refugee. And they are targeted by the government and are under threat even after escaping genocide.

India and Bangladesh along with other intelligence even help the genociders hunt down rohingya people. The recent pogroms in manipur are probably the biggest since sangh pogroms in 2002. Not only that they even broadcasted their atrocities to galvanize more people. This bleeds into the border crisis at Mizoram and Bangladesh. The genocide in Myanmar is massive scale and has been going for a long time now. The Indian north east pertains to the Indian government not to Myanmar. This is a big crisis. I bought it up cause Indian doesn’t mind doing this sort of build up in the north east. Let alone seriously want to solve arunachal pradesh’s border.

The manipur pogroms were done by the right cause sangh aided them and wanted to seize elections through that. Likewise a lot of other tensions in Arunachal were built up with citizenship act trying to target chamkas and hajongs to ethnically cleanse them.

Cold war era nehru pushed by kennedy’s admin and down the line indira’s policy are way different. Yeah its not rocket science, guess what since 70s war with pak the sights shifted to pak. The USA admin almost nuked india at that time. It doesn’t side with china out of hatred to the usa siding with pak. Pak is also a china ally now. It sides cause it wants to trade anyway.

No the indian government didn’t copy west chinaphobia. They did the bans before usa banned chinese software along with make in india. No this xenophobia isn’t something comes out of this border dispute. India’s xenophobia extends to its north east states cause of the sangh. Its not born out of this dispute. The population is more threatened by the sangh and the rabid shit it wants to do. Than it is by china. No India doesn’t care about rivers at this or the environment in that area as shown by their shitty policies for uttarakhand.

Frankly this is all still overlooking how USA lobbies since sixty or how much Us intelligence was doing in north east. Or how much India does this horrible shows of asserting power. Or still backing dalai lama. Even then the admin now feels they can just negotiate this issue.

My original comment was to point that sankar is a hollow person who just gloms to western points when convenient. And no he doesn’t think of the border dispute when it comes to rattling to china or policy. He only cites what any one from what the west says. Cause again India neglects that area and keeps pointing at china while ignoring what india conducts. Its more convenient than the bungled negotiations at the border.

Well if the Indian admin wants to resolve the territory issue they can do it with diplomatic talks and that doesn’t require nor force anyone to launch war or be anti china. Cause if there is one thing that the Indian admin definitely does not even pretend to care about its the north east. Like don’t believe me, look at the recent pogroms in manipur. Just unimaginably vile.

To elaborate no sankar or broadly other war hawks don’t need the border issue to be anti china. They do it for appeasement. Like banning chinese apps and calling it spyware. Or banning chinese companies to have operating stores. Or even getting at news websites cause they are considered chinese spies (new york times breathed life into that). No they don’t do it cause they forced their hand by border issue. They do it cause its good to be in USAs graces. They would love to anyway. Xenophobia is easier to peddle cause sangh won’t mind.

Or else they don’t wanna jeopardize the 3 billion deal. Or displease london overlords backing out large industrial deals.

Sankar or the admin don’t want a war cause of the border. Its cause whatever west wants the next push to war be. I’m sure cause of the possible sanctions on india for that iran deal, they will trot something to fall into the graces again.

He is a huckster. He just gloms onto language and expropriates as his own. But he is just a face that sangh can trot out to say wow india has 7d chess foreign policy. He says these weightless statements all the while India does business as usual in billions with the west. He doesn’t believe in shit. He says these things so he gets a following in my country to hype him and sell his shitty books.

He wants a war with china as much as usa. Its very weird where anyone who doesn’t know who this fucking guy is or india is just being like “Whoa so based and mulitpolarity bro” without much awareness. No India is very much in favor of american hegemon.

I fucking hate jaishankar.
