Happy to share my article for Vice about censorship. It is based on my own experiance of getting banned by LinkedIn for absolutely no fault of mine. 5 months later LinkedIn restored my account with an apology. How did this happen? Read here.

For the life of me, even if it was up to par, I would never buy a car from the Chinese Govt, which literally has attacked India and taken its territory in recent years.
But Indian middle class, who constantly rant about anti-nationals, have no qualms about doing so.
JSW MG Motor India reported October 2026 wholesales of 8,013 units, achieving 25 per cent year-on-year growth supported by rising deliveries of the Hector Tomahawk EV and Windsor Indulge Edition >>

My nearest death exp cycling came from this exact shit. The bus luggage door's sharp end missed my head because I dodged it at the last second, I would have been looking at permanent scar at the least. I think about this everytime I see such a door.

These are broiler chickens which have a very short lifespan and would get immediately eaten by stray dogs as soon as released in the open space.
He is literally causing a reduction in supply, which would increase prices, which would push more poor people into hunger.

Calicut in the 1400s was one of the busiest ports on earth. Ibn Battuta described it, so did da Gama later. Ships from Arabia, Persia, East Africa, China all unloading pepper and cardamom. The Zamorin who ran it kept no standing army. His power was purely commercial.
When da Gama sailed in during 1498 he found thirteen Arab ships already in the harbour. A working free market, built over six centuries.
Within a generation the Portuguese bolted a system on top of it, the cartaz. Every ship in these waters now had to buy a Portuguese pass or get sunk. The world's first maritime protection racket, and Calicut's trade network never recovered.
What gets me is the timing. We are now dredging Vizhinjam just up the same Kerala coast, trying to win back the transshipment role we lost that century. Same geography, same logic. It just took us 500 years to come back to it.

What do the tigers in Vantara eat I wonder!
Nobody told him this is grossly wrong. Saving animals who serve as food to vast sections of people esp poorer people in India (Vegetarian population is much richer per capita).

Exactly two months ago, I wrote this and faced faceless trolls defending AIFF’s decision and questioning my concerns about Indian football. Now AIFF is on the brink of bankruptcy.
Quoting the conclusion from my article. This pretty much sums up AIFF's current situation. #Indianfootball.
khelnow.com/football/indian-…
AIFF has skipped the ASEAN Cup 2026, which would have paid it to turn up, taken on a fixture costing ₹60-70 crore to stage, and declined to say how it is being funded.
If the package holds, the federation will have staged the biggest match played in India in years and covered its cost. It would be the strongest single result of his time in the chair.
If it does not, the loss lands on a body whose operating accounts held ₹11.25 crore in March, whose guaranteed rights income has ended, whose league has no broadcaster, whose women’s league has no signed commercial partner and no start date, and whose youth competitions have no calendar. No reserve sits behind it to absorb a bad night.
That is the part that reaches past the federation’s own books. A shortfall wouldn't be a line item to write off. It would set the ceiling on what Indian football can afford to do for years, and the programmes with no money behind them already are the ones that would feel it first.
Either way, a single friendly is now carrying more of Indian football’s finances than a friendly should. And on the federation’s own answer, the terms won’t be made public.
🚨 EXCL: AIFF has declined to explain how the India vs Brazil friendly is being funded, citing a confidentiality clause in the contract. The federation's regular bank accounts held ₹11.25 crore in March 2026.
A single friendly is carrying more of Indian football's finances than a friendly should.

Before this BJP had banned Alchohol Cigarettes adverts in 03, this affected Football a lot. Now the RMG ban. It's like a multi decade free gift of backstabbing by Sangh to Indian Sports. And people wonder why India is not in the World Cup while North Korea and Uzbekistan is.
Another victim of the RMG ban. So many knock-on effects.. hit the sports industry in India really, really hard. How do they compensate for this and revive things to where it was in the sports industry? Looks pretty distant at the moment. Instead of regulating and setting clear guidelines, an outright overnight ban killed so many livelihoods.

🚨 EXCL: No Pro Kabaddi League in 2026. PKL 13 is now likely in the June-July 2027 window. @KhelNow
The broadcaster's offer is half the old deal, and team owners have approached the Sports Ministry, as ISL clubs did.

Banning Real Money Gaming was a body blow to Indian Sports Industry except Cricket. Cricket can make up the losses in advertisement and sponsorship money but others won't. Indian Football and even Kababdi League is now in the middle of a crisis. Modi's masterstroak.
No need to get upset, we are just speaking basic facts. Making AP the least developed, and poorest state of the south the central point of HSR is petty coalition poltics by Modi and BJP.

Is the Police HQ a designated Protest location? Did they take a written permission for protest? When are they booking Ramleela maidan.
Aaron 🌪️ retweeted
Incorrect.
Court: You are in oci holder, you are distinct from indian citizens. You have no right to protest. Right to protest is not available to oci
Dhond: I don’t want to get into the larger issue.
Court: You have been here since childhood, why not accept indian citizenship, apply for citizenship. You have stayed here, worked here.
ASG: He has participated in illegal protests.
Court: The behaviour in public domain, you have no right. If uou want to remain an oci card holder.
These things are not open to oci card holder. Especially page 17-18
Dhond: please see page 17, I don’t know whose insta handle this is.
Court: You will not participate in any such agitations as oci card holder. You will give an undertaking.

India is planning to remove LTCG tax for FIIs and keep 12.5% tax for retail investors who have been supporting markets with their SIPs
Retail investors are also paying 20% TCS to the government on investments of more than ₹10 lakhs in foreign equities
This is a reminder for everyone that the finance lobby doesn't really care about your wealth building and retirement corpus
You are allowed to participate in the markets primarily to facilitate tax collection through unethical STT, high STCG, and a racist LTCG soon

Malaysia is a civilised country
Even when Malaysians are running from the police, they still pay the toll

As @americakaran rightly pointed out, Malayali Sanghis celebrate Marathi kings over Malayali kings. My analysis of the past decade identified 13 documented instances of Malayali Sanghis commemorating Shivaji Maharaj, compared to just 2 documented instances for Marthanda Varma.
