Still better than INC (Rahul Gandhi) IMO.

Would reconsider if INC appoint someone competent like Shashi Tharoor.

> India has been crippled by decades of socialist government overreach.

It baffles me that country still has strong anti-capitalist views. I guess lack of education does that to people.

Also, BJP is slightly right of Congress (post 1991) when it comes to economics.

Vajpayee FTW?

Why?

Suspicious comments...

> But I freaking cannot stand that unbearable accent

Understandable. no offense taken :)

Interesting that you are being downvoted. People are not happy with the truth itseems.

Not with Tucheliban

Our state only had Sanskrit in 10, 11 and 12 and it was not taught properly.

Pusthakam (Sanskrit: Pustakam) - Book

Bhāryā - Wife

Swapnam (Sanskrit: Swapnam) - Dream

Agni (Sanskrit: Agni) - Fire

Varṇam - Color

Samayam (Sanskrit: Samayam) - Time

Vidhyālaya (Sanskrit: Vidyālaya) - School

all these are used in Telugu as well :) except maybe Varṇam for color as I never heard anyone use it

Please educate

100%.

My colleague's father runs medical store. He apparently cooks the books too.

> lions eat christans

Could you explain this bit ?

My guess is Tamil Nadu ?

> stopping and holding your ground dissuades them if a chase is already on.

Maybe what you are suggesting IS true and might actually work out.

But there is no way in hell I can stop and hold my ground when half a dozen street dogs are chasing me at midnight.

Well I and my friend were attacked by bunch of street dogs at night after coming from watching a movie.

Thankfully we were on a moped (scooty) we got out without any harm .

Maybe each individual has their own experience and your experience alone doesn't count as absolute truth ?

Just Congress things.

Brings back memories of Congress rule in our state with 9 hours power cut every day in summer.

Thankfully that was more than a decade ago.

AI slop

Same BS for the last 10 or so years?

I use FF exclusively and disabled chrome on my Android phone.

Lucky me :)

Same can be said about your comments.

It's embarrassing that still couldn't backup your claims or keep your word. LOL

1. Couldn't back up the claims he made

2. Tells me Ask AI without even showing what it tells. (FYI I asked it didn't remotely support your case)

3. Gets hurt when called out

4. Leaves

I suggest you to go left and login to Reddit. You will find a lot of like-minded people there.

we have AI tools that have ingested worlds data

Please ask any AI tool about how you are wrong. Tata /s

> "Ask AI. Tata"

Just take the L and move on dude.

> The fact that TFR has crashed suddenly that blindsided everyone should be a hint about how supportive governments/society/religion is.

Isn't TFR dropping in urban areas common across the world ?

Do you know of any government or culture that reversed this ?

It is weird that you keep putting the blame on "governments/society/religion" when decreasing TFR is common phenomenon across the (urban) world.

EDIT: I want to make it a bit more clear since you have some trouble understanding nuance.

You can't say culture gives 0 support, and it is backend by 1.6 TFR. Hence, proved.

TFR dropping in common phenomenon across the world. It involves plenty of variables. You can't make up a claim and justify that by showing declining TFR.

> Do you have anything to contribute to the conversation other than trolling or anecdotal examples?

Wasn't your initial claim itself anecdotal evidence ?

> Please refrain from trolling and have a fact based conversation

And what exactly is "I suppose you're one of them right wingers who live in an alternate reality" ? Is that good faith argumentation ? I was thinking you would want me to give it back in kind.

None of what you said is fact based.

> So I suppose 2 or 3 people whose grandparents support them (as per you) are having 2 kids while others have 1 or 0

It is staggering to me that you lack basic reading comprehension skills. Do I have to spoon-feed you what I am disagreeing with ?

Your initial claim: "Neither culture nor religion or the govt does anything to help." Is apparently fact based because ?

From your previous comment: "Gee if all grandparents are helping them why is TFR 1.6 hahaha"

Did I say ALL grandparents support their kids ? Do you lack BASIC comprehension skills ? Why are you arguing a straw man ?

My pushback was on: "Neither culture nor religion or the govt does anything to help.".

And I have told you I know plenty of grandparents who support their kids. I didn't say EVERY grandparent supports their kids. I didn't say this is common across all of India.

But YOU said "Neither culture nor religion or the govt does anything to help." It was YOU who generalized all of India.

You couldn't just take the L.

> This is not reddit. Please refrain from trolling and have a fact based conversation

Ok give me what facts you used to arrive at some of the claims you used in your other comments.

> Very few couples have kids of their own violitin.

Really ?

> culture pressures adults to have kids but gives 0 support

I agree that culture pressures adults. Which facts did you use to conclude that it gives 0 support ?

> I suppose you're one of them right wingers who live in an alternate reality

I suppose you are one of the left wingers who don't know how country used to be before 2014 ?

I am too from the same country. Extrapolating your experience to 1.4 billion people of different languages and cultures is not a sign of intelligent person.

> Gee if all grandparents are helping them why is TFR 1.6 hahaha

Weird that in previous edit you listed out all the supposed problems and then again edited and blamed 1.6 TFR solely on grand parents not supporting.

Looks like you are clutching at straws to justify your point.

> culture pressures adults to have kids but gives 0 support.

Really 0 support ? I know many grandparents who entirely took care of their grandkids for 2–3 years. So their kids can work.

Mind you, Not by living in the same city and helping. But taking care of grandkids in their own village / town.

You clearly have no idea of culture nor religion of the country.
