you are so smart is it?
It would be nice if you could avoid ad hominem attacks; it is not wise to start something which you cannot finish.
first of all the IIT,IIM thing was a reply to popeye about how RSS has a lot of educated people in its ranks.
And my comment was very simply that having a lot of literate - not necessarily educated - people around is not a distinction.
For what its worth, there are far more IIT and IIM people outside shakhas, supporting parties opposed to the BJP and the Sangh Parivar. That includes sons of RSS members. In case you are wondering, you only have to be a member of IIT and IIM alumni sites and mailing lists to know this.
Unfortunately, to be a member, one needs to have gone to the IITs or to the IIMs; a ridiculous restriction, as I am sure you will consider this.
Secondly,Engineering or Management is just a professional qualification,you dont need to study history to make opinions for yourself.It is evident and it is out there.Everyone studies history till secondary school(even though it is biased bullshit),knowing history doesn't mean u have to be an archaeologist to do that.
Unfortunately not true.
The quality of the history taught in secondary schools is well known - biased bullshit it is, and the bias runs in several directions, depending on the political complexion of the Education Minister. There are chains of RSS schools, as has been mentioned in PakTeaHouse by illustrious graduates of these strange institutions, where history is excluded to the maximum extent possible. Picking up bits and pieces from popular literature (as one member of this forum who subscribes to your views does) is not a good substitute.
Someone has to take responsibility and have a vision on how to run the country,inflating the economy and showing growth targets helps in nothing.
True; and who is to do that? A technician with vast knowledge of tools and no knowledge of society or the economy, or a social scientist with a good grounding in these? What precisely do you mean by taking responsibility and running the country? A military dictatorship perhaps? They are also well-trained professionals, and accustomed to command large numbers of people.
Would it be possible to learn what you think will work?
RSS has no choice but to rubbish the parties left of centre because of their extreme inability to run the country well,i dont want to use logic and idealistic leftist ideas in the way a citizen doing his duty.
And when they run a state in a chaotic manner, who is at fault? Look at Karnataka, where a thief is in charge, selling government land to his son and son-in-law. Or look at the former president of the BJP, now arraigned by another eminent and very much better known member of the BJP of toeing a particular industrial house's line. Was that because he was in love with the head of the house?
And who is breaking the law of the land?So confronting Mirwaiz Umar Farooq is a such a big deal for you.
Rioting and violence is against the law of the land.
No doubt that comes as an unwelcome shock to you. Did you think this normal behaviour, something to be encouraged? Did you think breaking the law and breaking down the Babri Masjid was lawful? Did you think that killing 2,000 Muslims in riots, with the police helpfully standing by, was legal? Did you think wrecking cinema houses that show films featuring your activities in a bad light is legal? Did you think destroying a museum lawful?
There was nothing wrong with confronting Mirwaiz Umar Farooq, and Shankar Raychaudhury did so with logic and reasoning, and shut him up. There was everything wrong with turning up as a violent mob and trying to break in, and the perpetrators were rightly arrested.
Which Utopia do you live in man?That law that you speak of is not followed at all in reality.The law of the land is not exercised for any bloody crime.
Mass murderers,Public looters and corrupt people walk free making laws of the land,do you know how many inept chutes get driving licences to end up killing people on the road?
Which law are you talking about?seriously.
Have u walked into a government office anytime to get things done,if u do so u ll realize the little credibility that the govt has in our country.
And your solution? To take the law into your own hands? What happens when someone else, who doesn't like you, does the same, and has more people backing him, more guns and bigger guns, and less scruples? Where do you plan to go then, for help?
But u happen to think Slapping Mirwaiz Umar Farooq is a big deal?
No.
I happen to think that slapping anybody is unlawful. That he is Mirwaiz Umar Farooq has nothing to do with it. He could be Narendra Modi, and it would be just as unlawful.
u r right,we should be slaughtering those terrorists who indulge in ethnic cleansing rather than just slapping him.
What do you mean, 'u r right'? That is from your fevered imagination, not my words at all.
Elected representatives?That has to be the biggest joke on this planet.
If u happen to see some of these elected representatives,u ll want to jump off the nearest window rather than entrust ur life with these backboneless chutes.
Just curiousity; what else do you do but trust the administration to elected representatives.
Some more curiousity: what is your proposed alternative?
It is one thing to have ideals but playing a violin when all is burning around you is plain fvckin stupid and u have the audacity to advertise that too.
Presumably this means something. Do feel free to explain. What violins? What burning? What advertisement? Does this also mean that you have no ideals? In which case, what is the ground on which you resist all those horrible things that elected people do?
everyone has the right to say things,nobody is saying otherwise.But if people like Arundhati Roy,i dont know with what dreams of a revolution is mouthing her *** off,she has to be shown her place,plainly ignoring is not enough.
You see no contradiction in this? Everyone has the right to say things, except people like Arundhati Roy: is that it?
What if Arundhati Roy and 1,500 people march to your house, and want to show you your place, saying that ignoring your abusive nonsense is not enough?
yeah and regarding RSS,
Congress would slaughter Sikhs at will that is when they are not robbing the coffers off indian treasuries,Lefties would grab lands with a red flag and outdated ideals,they would fund their votebanks off with freebees from tax payer money but it is always the Sangh which is at fault.
Democracy my ***.
Not at all.
All of you Sanghis are so full of self-pity that you don't stop to listen.
I don't remember having supported the Congresss or the leftists. So whom are you referring to? Is it your case that if a person doesn't support the Sangh, he/she must support equally corrupt parties?
And do feel free to offer your alternative to democracy.
Considering that this is a Pakistani forum, you will have a large and interested audience.
