Interesting. Top locations for my #music on #SoundCloud over the past week are Cairo, Giza and Jakarta. The world map indicating where music is played is filling in, but nobody in western #Europe or #Africa has listened to a single tune yet. Same for #India. #Pakistan has listened, lol.
I have 1 play from Iran. Guessing they banned the rest.
Western Europe, eh? I should tag all music posts with #Eurovision, lol.
BJP MP makes it clear that India will be ruled by the principles of Dharma — which is specified in the Dharma shastras like Manusmriti — and not the Constitution. #India
If President Droupadi Murmu were to inaugurate the new parliament building, it would have looked jarring to see an Adivasi woman perform Brahminical rituals. Though she would not minded doing it considering she subscribes to the Hindu nationalist ideology. #India
India's president – India's first Adivasi (Indigenous) president – was sidelined from the parliament building inauguration because Modi wanted all the attention on him. What a shame! #India
#MastIndia : is it possible for people still on #Bigsocial (such as instagram) to try and get the indian LGBTQ+ community pages on there to also set up pages on #pixelfed and #mastodon and help them understand the #fedi ?
Indian origin Hindu guy who considers himself white and admires Nazi ideology crashes a truck into the white house to seize power.
Friends from SEA, do you have elite upper class people like these who consider themselves white and not Asian?
Btw... this is not the first instsnce of an upper caste Indian claiming "whiteness". There have been court cases by men requesting white status as early as pre first world war days.
A Bonanza For Dutch Firm: Modi’s Decision Forcing Half of India to Eat Fortified Rice
A bevy of international organisations were part of a government resource centre that chalked up policy on rice fortification. All of them have links to Dutch multinational, Royal DSM, which benefits from the assured market created by the government's decision.
For those who didn't know this already...#Indian middle and upper class has a nazi fetish since ages. I always heard my grandparents, parents and uncles/aunts lament how #India needed a dictator like Hitler to straighten it out. The general impression is that AH was an uber patriot who took his country to great heights and put irksome minorities in their place or eliminated them. #Modi's resemblance to AH is what gets him elected...that is very much his USP.
