i blame this movie for the recent wave of blind bjp support & muslim hate among the newer generation 🙏🏻

i’m 18 years old and have a non-profit where my friends and i help underprivileged women gain financial knowledge, manage their finances, become dependant, sometimes help them pass their board exams so they can get jobs.

yesterday, my friend and i had gone to meet a very successful, 26 year old, IIT grad, startup fellow because his team had reached out to collaborate with my non-profit. most of the time, rising startups reach out to non-profits so they can get insta-worthy content of them being generous. we don’t mind this because it’s funding for our cause eitherway.

we discussed the plan for his startup or whatever and then we were having lunch so we launched into normal conversation. he brought up how my generation is very problematic and we’re always demanding things.

he brought up sonam wangchuk’s protest demanding dharamendra pradhan’s resignation and said that students need to “suck it up” because leaks “happen”. and that the kids who committed suicide over re-neet are “weak idiots”.

then he went onto talk about how blessed we are to have the bjp government and that truly ragebaited me so i asked him what exactly bjp has done so WONDERFULLY that we should feel honoured to have them

and he told me about how they handled demonetisation (completely fictionalised dhurandhar version of it) and also suggested that i should watch dhurandhar to learn more about our amazing government 😍

i must also add that my surname is malik and i’m a hindu but as you may know, malik is also a muslim surname. this man also joked that he’s glad i’m a hindu malik and not a muslim malik

can’t believe this guy is an IIT grad. i thought they were supposed to be intelligent
