"“It takes guts to be a martyr, to have arrows stuck all over you or be pulled apart on wheels: but it perhaps takes a truer holiness to be laughed at by louts for your convictions.”" Jan 09, 2026 08:56PM

“But shame is not an adequate inducement unless you voluntarily participate in being shamed. You have to take yourself far too seriously. You must become hypersensitive toward the conduct of your neighbors. You must be thin-skinned, self-conscious, and consumed with that which is beyond your immediate control. You must be miserable—or, at least, miserable to be around.”
Noah Rothman, The Rise of the New Puritans: Fighting Back Against Progressives’ War on Fun – A Witty Analysis of Wokeness, Cancel Culture, and the Threat to Liberty

“But foreign should not be defined in geographical terms. Then it would have no meaning except territorial or tribal patriotism. To me that alone is foreign which is foreign to truth, foreign to Atman.”
Koenraad Elst, Decolonizing The Hindu Mind: Ideological Development Of Hindu Revivalism

“Pandit Lekh Ram’s Risâla-i-Jihâd was the object of a lawsuit, in which Muslims demanded that the book be banned. After several rounds in court, they lost definitively in 1896. But the matter did not end there, for Lekh Ram was murdered in March 1897. Some Muslims, including Mirza Ghulam Ahmad (1838-1908, pretender to prophethood and founder of the Ahmadiya sect of Islam),16 openly applauded the murder: “Mirza Ghulam Ahmad published a tract in which he thanked God for the fulfillment of his prophecy that Lekh Ram would die a violent death. … Individuals reported receiving threatening letters, and mysterious notices appeared on the wall throughout the province. ‘All Hindus are warned to remember the Islamic prophets and believe in them; otherwise they will be murdered like Lekh Ram.”

“बचपन में माँ का बेटे को गले लगाना जितनी छोटी घटना है, बड़े होकर बेटे का माँ को गले लगाना उतनी ही बड़ी घटना।”
Divya Prakash Dubey, Ibnebatuti । इब्नेबतूती

Koenraad Elst
“It is right to look for someone’s “real” intentions after his ostensible intentions have been shown to be incompatible with the actual data of his situation and behaviour. But simply disregarding his explicit reasons so as to impose your own alternative explanation without giving him a fair hearing is not acceptable.”
