Dear New York Times, Why This Visceral Hate For India?
Most of us who enjoy having their regular visage with current
affairs must have an idea about ‘The New York Times’. There are lot of guest as
well as staff bloggers in NYT from India or of Indian origin. But this is just
part of NYT’s Indian association. Those who have followed NYT and their
editorial space for some time must have noticed another interesting aspect of
this daily. And that aspect is their abject hate towards India. Many of their
editorial outputs on India are largely below the belt and most of the times
factually incorrect too. Whether it is a concise effort and an editorial policy
at NYT to squeeze in something negative about India in every story or they are quite
unintentional is no more a guess work. This is not all. Their hate towards
India seems to have increased many folds post 2014 general elections. For a
large part of the recently concluded USA elections and post the verdict the NYT
editorial team seems to have drawn similar warheads against Trump as they did
for Narendra Modi. It won’t be surreptitious any more to call them the biggest
warehouse of Commie garbage, closely followed by the Washington Post. Time and
again they have proved it with their bile and this fact is no more disputable.
Coming back to NYT’s hate towards India – from 2014 NYT
attracts the regular ‘hate Modi, hate BJP’ gang to go there and relieve their
bowls like no other newspaper. Routinely we get to see some known and
despicable liberal worth his/her salt, whom I refer as the usual suspects of
our home-grown secular colonies, whining out against the current dispensation
with hopeless dishonesty, closely bordering with outright lie. They even allow
people like Sanjay Jha to bark against the government without mentioning his
position as the Congress spokesperson in author’s bio. His political outburst
rather passes of as a neutral observation for NYT’s readers. How absurd that
becomes on the part of a reputed daily? If not for the core hate BJP intentions,
why on earth a newspaper of repute would hide the correct information of its
bloggers from its reader base? If distracting its readers to falsehood is not
the purpose then I see no reason why a newspaper would lie and continue to
associate with liars.
In 2013 NYT came up with an outright deplorable and racist
cartoon against India. India’s Mars mission, which the rest of the world later hailed
as a remarkable achievement, became a slur generating idiom for NYT. This is
what hate does to you. You forgo the basic human qualities in your deeds. Precisely
the absent qualities in one that helps identify a rabid Commie in a crowd. For reasons
best known to NYT, they felt, space mission is limited to some elite lot and
developing nations like India shouldn’t even dream of any such misadventures. This
is another trait of Commies. They hate all of that which they feel are inferior
to them. Though NYT editor had to apologize for this moronic outlay of a
nation, his explanations to cover his newspaper’s rotten track record with
bogus reasoning were flabbergasting. It is quite bizarre when he says the
intention of the cartoonist was to show that space exploration doesn’t remain
an elite affair any more. Really? Nothing more school boyish of an explanation
one can expect. Had that been the case, I don’t think the cow fits anywhere to
the context. What made NYT to get that cow tucked behind the human figure
represented as India, if not for a fact that India is a Hindu majority nation
where cow is revered as sacred? This is why I call outhouses like NYT as nothing but herd of liars and cowards. Perhaps they are a gang of hypocrites too but we will discuss their hypocrisy little later. Cleaver escapists they are, they severely lack guts to
own up. They usually get away with their crimes but when confronted they lack honesty
so much within that they refrain from standing up to their own deeds. This is another
typical Commie trait – shoot and scoot and when challenged throw logic to the
kitchen sink or worst, start blaming and name calling the entire world.
As I mentioned earlier, hate for India increased post
2014. It appears as if NYT as an organization has serious India problem. They
allow baseless articles to run on their portal without even doing basic fact
checking. During the ‘Dadri’ farce NYT had its foot soldiers running amok with all
kind of lies possible. Case in point is the below snippet on the imaginary
intolerance that grew exponentially post BJP’s win.
While there have always been episodic attacks on free speech in India, this time feels different. The harassment is front-page news, but the government refuses to acknowledge it. Indeed, Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s silence is being interpreted by many people as tacit approval, given that the attacks have gained momentum since he took office in 2014 and are linked to Hindutva groups whose far-right ideology he shares.
You would require a wagon of salt to digest the above quoted lie. But before that, it must be mentioned here that the author of this bile never
visited India in her entire life, much less during the said period. But surprisingly
she seems to have all the details of the case and situation so much so that she
painted the situation almost as grim as in Syria. The author ought to be the modern day 'Sanjay' of Mahabharat fame. Yes the one who could see things in detail yet being far away from the scene of action. Jokes apart, who gave her this info and
why it didn’t befall on NYT to do basic fact checking before running this
nonsense when they were very well aware that the knowledge of the author isn't first hand? What kind of editorial management is this? The article lacks any truth which is proved from the three instances
that the author picked to base her falsification. The author picks the killing
of Narendra Dabholkar, Govind Pansare and M. M Kalburgi to degenerate the Modi
government. This is how lies are manufactured. Had the author been devoid of
her agenda and pathological hate she would have noted or at least studied to
get the fact that Dabholkar’s killing happened in 2013 when BJP was not in
power; neither in the state nor at the centre. Kalburgi was killed in a
Congress ruled state which too the author never cared to check. How such lies
could pass the editorial board of NYT? That said, I still give that to NYT. One
need not have to crosscheck if the sole idea is to press your hate through
bogus whining and NYT allowed the author to do exactly that. Baseless
articulation with fact free documentation of events in your favour is another tangible
trait of Commies that we are used to. So nothing new in seeing/reading it once
more.
Though NYT even took shelter of lies to support the inner
zest in their ‘Hate India’ mission they remain quite oblivious to similar
happenings elsewhere. For my own interest I scanned the entire NYT archive and
to my surprise I didn’t find a single, I mean single, article on the Fatwa
against Salman Rushdie or Tasleema Nasreen. They didn’t even publish anything
condemning the Islamic terrorists for killing some of their very own from ‘Charlie
Hebdo’ in France. I didn’t find a single post on Kashmiri Pundit exodus either.
How on earth the advocate of free speech and justice like NYT can remain dead
silent on issues that otherwise the rest of the world is talking about? The
silence should have reasons or else when NYT can weep for only three killings
why they would want to remain unmindful towards the ethnic cleansing of an
entire race. What could be the reasons or are these signs of liars and hypocrites,
true to the symptoms of every Commie on this planet?
NYT’s hate for India is not bound to just one or two
instances. There are plenty of them. Post Narendra Modi’s assertions of India
aiming at becoming the global power in renewable energy, specifically on solar
energy in future, NYT came up with another of their rot. This time mocking the
poor or may be the illiterate or may be the entire nation again. What sense this caricature
makes is beyond me. What was the message that NYT wanted to pass on here if
hate for India isn’t the one? Someone eating solar panels with Mango Chutney is
as disgraceful as it can get. What were the specific ideas behind such a drawing?
Is it that India is full with illiterates and retards to not even differentiate
between food and solar panels? Or is it that India has so much starved
population that they would end up eating solar panels out of acute hunger? What
kind of a moron can even conceive such puke worthy graffiti? It is simply unimaginable
coming from a reputed daily. But then, didn’t I say, Commies hate and downgrade
whatever they feel is lower to them? Their whole existence depends on the
objectification of their hate. They simply can’t tolerate anyone rising up in
his/her life. And yet they would be the first to write in lengths about
intolerance and social justice.
NYT also engages routine ‘Hate Modi’ campaigners from India
to further their mission. I gave the example of Sanjay Jha but it is not Jha
alone. There are infact in dozens from India who just do mindless slandering 24X7. Hate filled posts by our intellectual ‘Desi’
appears quite regularly on their portal. The who’s-who of India, the ones that
made their career by simply abusing one man from 2002, feature in their
author list. One such charlatan is Pankaj Mishra. He has many rubbish to his
credit but I am just picking one. Honestly, picking one of Mishra’s bile would suffice
as the pattern and hate remains consistent in all of his posts. This is what he
wrote after 2016 USA elections and the gullible NYT ran it for a month. Not
to forget, there were no fact checking done here either.
The stink first became unmistakable in India in May 2014, when Narendra Modi, a member of an alt-right Hindu organization inspired by fascists and Nazis, was elected prime minister. Like Donald Trump, Mr. Modi rose to power demonizing ethnic-religious minorities, immigrants and the establishment media, and boasting about the size of a body part.
I am sure Mishra doesn’t have an iota of clue on what
alt-right means, much less his knowledge on BJP or RSS. The language getting to
gutter level only makes his intentions without any reason more prominent. Not
sure of the stink that Mishra here is harping on but for sure the only stink
that is emanating is of Mishra’s liberal hate and the pathological hate of NYT
towards India, BJP and Modi. For a major part of an hour I was scampering for
reasons on how an international Newspaper can allow such language be furnished
in their editorial section. I guess, it was allowed because it fits to another
spectacular trait of the Commies. They are the most abusive lot one can find
but they would be the ones accusing everyone else being abusive. We see this
trait quite often in India. We have street thugs to category 5 morons; we have the
ever evolver too. And the basic string that stitches them together is that all of
them are abusive at the slightest instance. Of course another quality that is
common is their ability to play victim when countered with facts.
Even the latest 104 number world record satellite launch by
India didn’t go unhindered from NYT’s muck. In an article published yesterday
NYT was busy slandering the people of India than holistically analysing this
latest space achievement. It was both annoying and hilarious at the same time. When
the rest of the world was talking about the success story NYT was busy dissecting
the Indian psyche and how Indians are fascinated with world records. This is
what journalism has come to being addressed at NYT. And what is so baffling for
NYT with the celebration among Indians after the satellite launch? Perhaps
the problem lies with another common Commie trait. They simply can’t tolerate the
success and joy of others. Somehow they become desperate to find avenues to
mock and here NYT precisely did that. Note the highlighted block in red. One
reading the article with no idea on India would imagine Alok Kumar Dubey to be
a prominent public figure, so much so to be exampled alongside the president and the
PM of the republic. But poor Mr. Dubey is far from being one. The Twitter
handle NYT referred has only 100 odd followers but yet it is the sheer
brilliance of NYT to encircle Dubey Ji as one of those right wing chaps. More
even, for NYT, an individual’s opinion becomes that of the nation. But I agree
here that NYT remains stuck to their ‘one equals to all’ theorem. After all a
single ‘Dadri’ made entire India intolerant. That said, this cherry-picking of an
average Indian to mock an entire nation leads to a very fundamental question –
why only the RW folks would celebrate the success of the nation? Why not the
Left Wing thugs be celebrating equally? If this is not the case then how NYT
was sure of Mr. Dubey’s political alignment?
