Doing good bro.

Older, more silver haired, and a bit wiser than the last time around.

I heard the 30-something chicks dig it.

Joe the Plumber?

Always look out for his postings

@vsdoc

Like all elderly people he " thrusts " his views on others
and is impervious to others views

He behaves as if he is the only educated and intelligent person in India

It is best to ignore him because you soon are reduced to exchanging insults
AND I dont like to insult an old man

I insulted him once but said sorry the next day and have since avoided him

I am seeing way too much ganging up and hitting out at Joe guys.

I am reminded of the Moto GP race yesterday (and the past few)where the puppies are ganging upand snapping at the withers of the aging lion.

Why is Joe important for us?

He very articulately expresses the view of the far left. Of the liberal. The once communist. The atheist. The secular (no prefix attached). The religion hater. The Modi hater. The Hindu right wing hater.

We have no other like him who also happens to be a Hindu.

More importantly, for me, he's old school.

And we have no Indian babajee his age.

The Pakistanis have a few.

We have exactly zero left (Ray long gone) who can talk to them as a generational equal. And be taken seriously.

So please be respectful.

If he's old enough to be my dad, he's old enough to be most of your dadoo.

I detest greatly those low lifes who abuse him. A physical distaste.

Cheers, Doc

Doc, its not Indians alone who need Joe.

The rest too - we all afterall need sane views.

@vsdoc Who Joe ? Average Joe ?

I agree with your analysis. Differing, unique and unpopular views are the gems of the forum. They may represent the views of a minority or a fringe group but they bring with them much needed critical thinking and objective resolution of problems. Joe has as much defended India as others so I don't get the hatred towards him from Indians themselves.

The problem is that controversial or even disparate views are often treated with suspicion and at times outright hatred. No one sees these figures claims as a method to improve oneself. There needs to be a change of approach, the Arundhati Roys and Nadeem F Paracha's if we do not agree with them at least we can respect the unique thought they bring to society.

I am very aggressively involved myself in speaking for the rights of my people both pashtuns and lucknowis but that does not mean I hate anyone. Same is true for Joe. Cut him some slack people. His views are welcome anywhere. He is a wise sagacious old dude who has seen and witnessed more than a lot of us combined.

@vsdoc

How is Joe Shearer different from Prakash Karat and Sitaram Yechury

We know how much fan following they have got

The Communist Bengalis have NO RIGHT to preach to the rest of the country
after having RUINED Bengal and making it ungovernable
