kbad1000··on New Zealand council's Zoom meeting goes viral as people pretend they're in it
Really? Does one get set of knives if they get 1000 likes in a comment?
kbad1000··on Why I left academia
What would you say about Winston Churchill being celebrated as a hero while, Indians who are aware of the atrocities committed by him well call him a monster and an equivalent of Hitler?

Shouldn't the British children be taught about the atrocities committed by British because, if you talk to general British public, they think that the British Raj was benevolent & a very good thing happened to the Indian subcontinent.

kbad1000··on How Indian lawyers, scientists gave Sci-Hub its first legal defense team
Yes, but it depends if the goods or service is essential. Is knowledge/ education/ access to information essential?

Haha, PepsiCo (Lays owner) lost case against farmers who produced the special potatoes in India.
kbad1000··on India Shut Down Kashmir’s Internet Access
Literally religion had nothing to do with abolishment of article 370. India is secular and this government is much more secular than any Congress coalition in the past few decades. NDA government is not a appeasement government.

The deal of plebiscite cancelled itself when Pakistan invaded in 1965.

And more importantly Catalan is a economically output generating region and not a consumer.
kbad1000··on India Shut Down Kashmir’s Internet Access
The fact is general population never received the money sent from Central government. Many have vested interests in autonomy of Kashmir, one of which are the elite three political families. They are the ones who have sucked all of that money.
kbad1000··on India Shut Down Kashmir’s Internet Access
There are no fair elections in Kashmir. Only three families rule there, who receive money from both sides of the border.

If Pakistan is not part of problem then why is it so much agitated by internal affairs of India? Let's be clear here the call for 'Gajawa E Hind' (which means complete destruction of Kafirs in India and establishment of a Islamic rule) runs in most of the Pakistanis, though they can't do anything for this, the emotions are clear. On the other hand Pakistan is a military autocracy. Without enemity with India and a cause for fighting, their existence and dominance is threatened. For them the conflict is their oxygen.

That's pure lies and propaganda. The brutal atrocities in past by invaders should not be forgiven, however, this doesn't mean to hate the descendents. It is BJP which abolished Tripple Talaq, it is BJP which decriminalized homosexuality (Congress did not because it would hurt their voter base of Muslims), it is BJP, which is giving benefits on the basis of income, etc. Kashmir was and is integral part of India and it's culture. While we are on this no news outlets dared to talk about the genocide of thousands of Hindus, Buddhists and Suffis in Kashmir since 1989 by the Pakistan sponsored Islamic Terrorists. If one comes on the ground instead of reading propaganda from news outlets dominated by Hinduphobic pessimists, it'll be better. And to be clear NYT, BBC, Al-Jazeera, Bloomberg and even DW have anti-India sentiments because of lobbying and the vested interests. It is the Hindu philosophy which is the most inclusive and that is why India was and is most diverse nation on the planet and not any Western nation.

Your point of well explained in the book 'Rational Optimist' The intensive farming actually increased wilderness. With tech of 1960, it would have required 86% of land to be farmed to feed current world population.

kbad1000··on Ten people arrested in Gujarat for allegedly playing banned game PUBG
You can find youths leaving everything to play 'this' game everywhere. It is not just the usual fun thing. I too play games, but I've not seen such thing; it is addiction.
kbad1000··on Ten people arrested in Gujarat for allegedly playing banned game PUBG
Not many can buy high calorie fast food. I think the ban can atleast limit the use of the game, specially in public. I think the game is similar to alcohol addiction and keeps people poor by making them unproductive.
kbad1000··on Ten people arrested in Gujarat for allegedly playing banned game PUBG
Alcohol is already banned in Gujarat and Bihar. One can only purchase it if they have arrived in Gujarat from less than 6 months using a rationed licence.
kbad1000··on Ten people arrested in Gujarat for allegedly playing banned game PUBG
The local government (district level) (not in all country) made it illegal for exams and in public because it is addictive.

kbad1000··on Leaky Database Reveals GPS Surveillance Of China’s Uyghur Muslims
Surveillance in general is oppressive but the fact is there have been terror incidents to which China is reacting so as to stop further escalation. And yes Pakistan does use terrorism as foreign policy or use it as a weapon.

Bloomberg is biased against cryptocurrency. As everyone knows Bitconnect was Ponzy scheme it would not have made sense.
kbad1000··on Taking Tesla Private
This is true. For example, deadline for Model 3 was set much lower compare the Bolt. Even though Tesla make money on every sell of Model 3 and GM loses on every sell of Bolt money. Tesla is the one in negative news because of too high expectations.
