    Yeha logo ko lagata ke forum ek capitalist system hai jisme mods bourgeoisie hai jo apne powers baki ke proletariat members ka shoshan karne ke liye use karte. But it's the other way around, members yeha aake apni marji se rayta faila ke chale jaate aur mods ko working class ki tarah baaki members ka kachra saaf karte firna padta. :D
  • Let us look at the problem and its various causes systematically.

    1 <<i class="Italic">b class="Bold">The problem is perceived intolerance in islam which seems to be disproportionately high when compared to other religions..

    2. most terrorist operations worldwide and increasinly in recent years have been done by islamic groups not only in india but worldwide.

    Now let us look at the reasons.

    Global reasons-

    1. politicisation of religion espescially in saudi arabia.

    Saudi is the biggest exporter of salafism in madarsas and mosques worldwide. It is open secret that saudi's sunni secteranism has been the support base for isis. In middle east this has roots in shia sunni or iran saudi conflict.. the filthy money of saudis has contributed to brainwashing youths worldwide.

    Also we must rember that whether it be christianity or hinduism, modernism seeped in only after secularisation of polity. Not very long ago countries like tunisia, syria, lebanon etc were thriving places of liberalism. They were fashion hubs infact.



    2. motherfucker erdogan- he is nostalgic about turkish dynasty..he has helped isis..isis is influencing terrorism worldwide.

    3. usa and europe- they are the biggest hypocrites.. the destruction of iraq , afganistan and syria has alienated muslims. The fanatic politiciastion and its spread through saudi funded money has led to this cancer now.

    .
    4. global warming- it will create more terrorism in future.


    Now india speciafic reasons.

    1. influence of above global reasons.

    2. kashmir- kashmir is a wound . We must heal that for peace.

    3. isi pakistan

    4. casteism- casteism is the biggest issue. Hinduism is so much divided that india becomes an open playground for all kinds of fanatics.

    5. votebank politics.

    6.Rss preaches a very dumb brahmanical sort of hinduism which only alienates further.
    Bhai the problem in bold and italics have no connection with your causes in bold.

    1. I mean how does Kashmir is a religious issue. They have made it because they think Kashmir being Muslim-majorit cant be with Hindu-majority India and shud go with Pakistan.

    2. I don't understand how does casteism is fuelling radsicalization in Islam. aapka to rationality ka approach and funda hi galat h.
    3. RSS is wrong on some and right on some. Same goes with any ideology.

    I didn't read any of the comments but closing down an entire thread is just not done. Rules of the forum are not divine and can be challenged if people think they are violative of their freedom of speech. Sometimes we forget there is no "right to get offended". It is our duty to put our point across in a civilized manner. It may be perceived as insensitive by a group but the solution to that is more debate rather than curbing speech. Everyone is sensitive to certain issues, it doesn't exonerate the right of others to have a debate over them. Only ideas and opinions are put forward here. There are no revelations of actual identity and hence I don't see any of them violative of 8 restrictions on freedom of speech in the constitution. If you think certain ideas and views are offensive and merit closure of an entire thread, that right there is baseless intolerance.

    MOD NOTE: THREADS ARE CLOSED BECAUSE WE RECEIVED FLAGS THAT HAD ATTACKS ABOUT A COMMUNITY AND SHOWED THEM IN POOR LIGHT. ONE OF THE PRINCIPAL LIMITATIONS OF ARTICLE 19 (I THINK YOU SHOULD READ THE POLITY BOOK WELL). ALSO READ THE PROVISIONS OF IT ACT AND HOW TO CONDUCT A PUBLIC FORUM BEFORE YOU COMMENT ON WHAT IS FIT FOR A DISCUSSION.

    @Etat Why and who banned @K9 ? You can please go through my comment history, I do not get into any useless discussion, but would like to state that merely bringing a thread up can not be considered as a crime or against rules of the forum. Please unban him, I have exam in a few days, so cant get into any argument over this. Please check his comment history once.

    Thanks.

    PS: do not ban me now for this. If you do, well, you will miss my presence at Ethics thread :D *not boasting :P*

    UNBANNED
  • Sometimes I feel mains reasom for alienation is Insensitive Bureaucracy. When Bureaucracy don't act in fair and non partisan manner. People are forced to regroup along caste, religious, regional lines. Had state be impartial in its conduct some of problems would have been solved.

    Being a minority is full of anxiety .You have worry about economic ,political and social well being as state may not be that impartial ,well meaning that we want it to be. I feel this anxiety because in my state there is dominance of a specific caste which corner major chunk of government jobs, developmental funds through hook and crook.
    I feel insecure that state government is not that fair ,it is compromised. If this is the case Minorities , Various castes are right in feeling alienated.

    Those who say that democracy will take care of all the conflicts. I feel Indian Democracy is not that representative as we imagine. Now tell me , is our democracy really democratic ? I am yet to get a sense of participation in any process of decision affecting me.

    But we can cry Democracy all day long.

    If you want to remove alienation of people cutting across religion, caste, region, gender,physical capacity etc. make decision making process truly participative. Stop manipulating people through PAID MEDIA.


    P.S. - I don't what I have written, I guess irrelevant. :D

    I am one amongst dozens with banning powers. How ethical is it to assume that everything that happens on this forum is my doing?
  • Yes governments in our country need to be more representative. Almost every party is identified with certain caste or religion now.
