BJP and Congress Trolls

BJP and Congress Trolls

Even though the goals are nefarious, the Bharatiya Janata Party, the current ruling party in India has been successful in their goal of winning the elections by hook or crook. The BJP also has over 300 websites with fake news and false information.  The decimated Congress party is way behind on this front.  The difference between the two parties is same as between GOP and Democratic party in America.

“In Internet slang, a troll (/troʊl, trɒl/) is a person who sows discord on the Internet by starting quarrels or upsetting people, by posting inflammatory, extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community (such as a newsgroup, forum, chat room, or blog) with the intent of provoking readers into an emotional response or of otherwise disrupting normal, on-topic discussion often for the troll's amusement.” Wikipedia.

The BJP also has over 300 websites with fake news and false information.  The decimated Congress party is way behind on this front.  The difference between the two parties is same as between GOP and Democratic party in America. 



For example, the Republican would say, “We will win the war, chase Bin Laden to the far ends of the world and catch him” They display confidence, even though they know they cannot do it, but the frightened public falls for that line. On the other hand, Democrats will not exhibit that confidence; because their reasoning minds hold them from making tall claims, but Obama got Bin Laden without making a big deal, but Democrats would not have made the statement about GOP.  Check out every statement made by both sides and study it yourselves.  Both are wrong, there should be a good mix of optimism and pragmatism.  


BJP will say anything without worrying about logic and reason, whereas, Congress reasons and assumes people know the facts and will not fight back. Modi attacked Manmohan Singh for 4% GDP, the entire Congress party took the shit without challenging. They should have shot back, 4% growth in 2014 was much better than the US, UK, and other nations.  If we are tied to international economies, we rise and fall with them. 


In love and war, everything works. The BJP is adept at capitalizing the vulnerabilities of Indians.  Every day, the average Hindu is brainwashed that Muslims are their enemies, they will come and grab food from their plates, marry off a billion million Hindu women…. They can fool the Indians for maybe one more election cycle, then people will see through them. First, they took it up the Temple issue, and Indians fell for that as if that would give them food, clothe them and provide shelter.  The second time around the Indians could not be fooled again. Now they are devising new ways of keeping Indians divided, pitting one Indian against the other. 


My suggestion is to reject every asshole who creates ill-will between you and another Indian, he is lying to you, and want to make an ass of you.  Instead, listen to the individual leaders from BJP, Congress and other parties who want Indians to come together for common good. 


Listen to this video, it is 32 minutes, it is worth listening to figure out how to deal with the negative forces. We need to counter with good trolls who want Indians to get along and care for each other.

OWAISI – The villain of Indian Democracy and Muslims

Tipu Sultan could have chased the British out of India but for Purnaiah, who compromised Tipu’s position.

Now,  Asaduddin Owaisi of AIMM is doing precisely that; weakening the rightful Muslim representation in governance.  Of the 29 Muslim contestants in Uttar Pradesh, 19 could have easily won had Owasi not poked the elections with his candidates. Look at the chart how thin the losses are.






He denied Muslims their rightful space in representing the people, which in effect zeroed, if not weakened the opposition in Indian Democracy.

If there is enough opposition in the parliament, our democracy will survive, without opposition, the ruling party whichever it is, the GOP in America,  and the BJP in India will do whatever they want. The Democrats in the US and Congress in India have done it when they were the ruling parties. It is up to us, the general public to safeguard the rights of individuals.  Everyone including the BJP members and RSS has that freedom today because our founding fathers made sure India remain a Democracy.  

Too many wise men have said, “The evil exists not because of bad people, but because good people do nothing about it.”  BJP with a bare majority will be a different party than the landslide majority. If they have to fight to stay in power, they will behave better.  The  Hindus, Dalits, Muslims, Christians, Sikhs, Adivasis and others need to team up to create a strong opposition – that should be their goal, in the next cycle they should aspire for higher representation of moderate people.

Lastly, we don’t need a Party for Muslims, Hindus or Sikhs– by the next two election cycles, we need to come down to two parties who would represent the economic interests of all Indians. What we need is jobs, education, housing, loans and retire in peace. We should not let any of the politicians fool us with issues that do not feed us, clothe us and house us. I wish our crowds in BJP, Congress and other rallies start singing "Pehle Roti, Kapda and Makan aur shanti do, aap ka Gobar aap ke paas hi rakho."  Make them sick of fooling us.   

Let’s find the candidates among BJP, Congress or Janata Dal who are inclusive and care for every Indian.  The Indians who are considered weak are very relevant and can prove it in the next few elections.

Now the Purnaiah Owaisi is weakening the rightful representation of Muslims in Karnataka. We need to check it out if he was paid by BJP to weaken the opposition.  Get rid of him, brand him whatever you want to but keep him from weakening the governance.  India would be better off if we have half of the states run by Congress and the other half by the BJP, let them compete in good governance. but no one should have an absolute majority and the absolute majority is evil governance.
