Protests Grow in India Over Religion-Based Citizenship Bill
Demonstrators defied troops and a curfew after the bill, which would make it easier for some non-Muslim migrants to become citizens, was approved in Parliament.
People saying the #AyodhaVerdict should not surprise anyone: well the convoluted arguments made do surprise me.
Going forward, does this mean any mediveal structure can be felled, citing historical claim and faith, and laws in place in modern times can be twisted citing faith? Whatever happened to reason?
Why is speaking about what is pissing you off considered something as brave in the post 2014 India?
It's because people have been made scared of the government and it's religiously motivated followers to the extent that remaining silent is now advised as the right thing to do.
Speaking your mind is not bravery, however remaining silent is cowardice.
Fuck that fear.
DISSENT CANNOT BE SUPPRESSED .
