Status Updates From La ideología india

"The cold truth is that the British massacre at Amritsar which ignited the first great mass movement of the independence struggle was a bagatelle compared with the accumulated slaughter by the Indian Army and paramilitary forces of their fellow-citizens, or those deemed such, since independence. "

"In 1958, Nehru’s regime enacted perhaps the most
sanguinary single piece of repressive legislation in the annals of liberal
democracy, the Armed Forces Special Powers Regulation...With this license to murder, Indian troops and paramilitaries were guaranteed immunity from atrocities, and made ample use of it."

Made me lol: "as a political leader, [Gandhi's] conception of himself as a vessel of divine intention allowed him to escape the trammels of human logic or coherence. Truth was not an objective value – correspondence to reality, or even (in a weaker version) common agreement – but simply what he subjectively felt at any given time. ‘It has been my experience’, he wrote, ‘that I am always true from my point of view’.'"

Ghandi and hitler that was one thing I definitely didn’t know 🤣
