Great that you poured your heart out for others to read. Made my job much easier.
Only majority community (Upper caste - hindi speaking - hindus have freedom of speech). Infact they are so free that they can call for genocide on live television, and get away with it. If you're minority (especially a journalist), you'd be Jailed without trial for years (UAPA and NSA). Think of it as a modern day Gulag.
That India is on the highest level alert as per GenocideWatch, and plenty other institutions.
lol what? There have been plenty of Hindutva terror incidents, one as recent as the day before yesterday, when 3 men killed a couple of undertrials in front of live camera and then went on to scream the terror warcry of "Jai Sree Ram".

> If this is “fascism” as you say, majority of the Indians are happy living under it.

Do you have a sense of irony? Majority is always happy under fascism. It is the minority who matters in that case.

property is a man made idea. No reason to treat is as something sacred. And we already don't care about property when government bails out these crooks.

No, sometimes important posts slip past by. And I made this comment when this post was not on the front page.
Re:Twitter disables likes or comments on Substack? on Friday April 07, 2023 @10:54AM (#35482179)
because substack is bringing out "Notes" – something that serves the same purpose as Twitter.

PS: @Dang, this post should be much higher on the front page.

Nazi germany was Fascist. It's supporters were fascist.

Indian Hindutva regime is a fascist. It's supporters are fascists.

The current Prime minister of India is known to have perpetrated the genocide of Muslims in 2002. Buddy, if anything I don't want to learn definitions from Hindutva Fascists.

PS: If anyone wonders what I'm talking about: watch the recent BBC documentary on Narendra Modi.

Indian media is hardly reputed.

India stands at 150/180 on Press freedom index, behind even many dictatorship.

Make that very clear. Indian media is not to be trusted.

not sundar pichai, but someone like Larry fink is certainly an oligarch. He's also had access to the inner core of the establishment.

Mostly MAGA muricans who vent their frustration out against china, when in reality it's their "greatest ally" in Middle east that's taking them for a ride.

That men who want sex, but cannot have it for a period of month should be counted as incels regardless of whether they think they are incels or not.

People seek divorce if their spouse isn't having sex with them for a month. I am applying that same heuristic to inceldom.

23% in 2018. It was about ~35% or so in 2022 IIRC.

And then you have to also factor in that men tend to lie a bit on these surveys.

Also factor in that it's only asking if they got laid in the past 1 year. Do it 6 months, and the figure shoots way up. IMHO, the time gap should be no more than a month or so. That would define real incels. 1 year is way too much.

There's no other reason besides this. American empire and its vassal states (like canada) are feeling threatened by the rise of the east.

What do I gain by lying? I could say I'm a german who stands against American Imperialism, and it would only make my argument stronger.

So you mean to say everyone has an agenda to cross? Which, by the way, also means that you have an agenda to cross too. "Anti-anti-corporation guy makes anti-anti-corporation comment: Reddit/HN Pitchfork"

Fierce competition does not mean something is good. There's fierce competition for bread that volunteers hand out of UNICEF trucks into a crowd of hungry, desolate people. Neither does that make the bread tasty, nor the winners "smarter".

>definetely hardworking and motivated.

Disagree. My experience, generally speaking, has been that they do not pay attention to detail, and are not that smart. Even though they might be motivated to keep the job, and they do make great corporate drones, but they do not come anywhere near what it takes to make successful product.

Re:Ericsson to lay off 8,500 employees on Friday February 24, 2023 @02:18PM (#34928698)
And more and more corporations would turn into dust with that kind of workforce. This is the fate of the west. Look at what happened to Intel, oracle, IBM etc which hired these H1B "coders" and middle management. I'm not complaining, just observing.
Re:Ericsson to lay off 8,500 employees on Friday February 24, 2023 @02:11PM (#34928592)
Don't pay heed to the commenter above you. They have been guilt tripping Germany since decades. Germany would have been better off if it had kept it's own interest first, by drawing redlines around American intentions of taking out nordstream.

And I'm not even German, rather an American. But I do keep my eyes and mind open and realize what's going on. Why don't Germans do the same? Hard to think this is the civilization of great thinkers.
