An innocuous looking picture of 2 girls asking Virat Kohli for a one night stand became very popular in India on a social network. Predictably, the comments ranged from a simple haha to about the looks of the chicks. And that was fine. In between those comments, some jingoistic idiots kept expressing their outrage about how one of the girls was covering her legs with the national flag and thereby insulting it. I think I found this objection, objectionable. This is exactly what is wrong with this country. So she covered her legs with the flag. So what you morons? It’s not the end of the world. Grow the fuck up. One retard, went as far as saying “just kill her”. I felt like reporting him.
An American friend of mine once asked me if the cast system in India was for real. I told him yeah it was and in the rural areas they even kill for it. Now I wonder if that sick mentality of the small towns will creep into the subconscious of urban India as the access to the internet multiplies. Or perhaps I am wrong. Perhaps I am being an urban snob. Perhaps, there is not much difference between an urban Indian and a rural one. We all kill the girl child. And we make dowry calculators on facebook. (sigh)
One can only hope that our minds will be liberated when we constantly see objectionable things and start to learn to live with them.
The world will be a much better place if we all simply just fucking mind our own business.
