Hail Hitler!

I don't get the fuss about Binayak Sen's sentence. I, for one, am completely with this decision. We should next electrocute Arundhati Roy and other activists, put all tribals in concentration camps and drive non-Hindus out of India. There is so much we can learn from our neighbor Srilanka and Nazi Germany about violating human rights. Or, like in everything else, we can ask for America’s help (which has an awesome experience in this regard) in killing the millions of poor who have too low a suicide rate to get eliminated all by themselves. While we are at it, let us kill all Kashmiri people and solve the Kashmir issue once and for all.
India, let us face it, has never been a land of equality. Even when our emperors sat on peacock thrones the peasants were as poor as ever. So the ideas of Liberty, Equality and Justice are nothing but a colonial hangover. They suit us as badly as adopted accents, Halloween parties and Pop music suit us. There is nothing to be ashamed of admitting the fact that our forefathers had gone carried away by their foreign education and copied pasted everything flowery they came across. Thankfully, we can always undo whatever they did.
Let us not embarrass ourselves any more with a tight-fitting constitution. Let us, for once, say what we truly believe in and wear what fits us. Lets adopt swastika as our new emblem, choose among Churchill, Stalin and Hitler as father of our nation but first of all give ourselves a new constitution. I am giving the first few lines, please add on: "WE, the people of India, having solemnly resolved to constitute India into a Corrupt Capitalist Communal Nepotic Republic ...".

  2. I agree with some of ur observations but we can not & should not be so harsh Or inhuman as Hitler or stalin.But at the same time we should also not behave like cowards or in competant persons to face crualities. There is always a middle path available. Face criminals/anti social elements with toughness whereas be polite/decent with peace loving & nationalist people. that should be the approach.Two extreme positions are not good.

  3. WE, the people of India, are already a Corrupt Capitalist Communal Nepotic Republic ...".

    I am no Rang De Basanti optimist, I dont believe anything can change

    but I do believe that this (for want of a better word) Chutiyapa is something that is inherent to mankind, be it any country.

    All we can do is persevere

  4. critism is best fit when backed by facts.we are still much secular ,very less authoritarian,an open-vibrant society,an emerging nation.why and how can one become so cynical..

  5. Chomsky in a recent interview said,"the world is ruled by force, and by law only when that is convenient for the powerful."

    For the above comment i would say, Its not cynicism.. its merely accepting what hurts.

  6. Noam Chomsky is correct and you are perfect in pointing it out here. I would just like to clarify what I feel that - Chomsky just discovered a natural law in his statement , but then you have to take "might" in a broad sense and not just the vague physical sense. Heal where it hurts - don't leave it unattended ...
