Sorry to say but you seem like a person ready to throw in the towel at the first sign of problem, so no matter what I say to you your answer will be always negative.shyamal wrote:It wont. It will just be "Indians are trying to deny their problems by pointing fingers at others".
If you are "well armed with data" and still not able to stand for yourself then no one can help you. Yes the topic is emotive but that doesn't mean Indians should take any kind of shit dealt out by caucasians by sugar coating it to be a "gift" or some crap like that. If you have any idea about fighting this out way more "subtly" than ripping them a new one then please go ahead and tell us about it, I am more than willing to listen to that.shyamal wrote:I am very well armed with data
But the issue is that on an emotive topic like rape - data does not really help. I fight all the time about perceptions. The fight has to be far more subtle than ripping someone a new one.
Gee thanks for the advice regarding "underestimating enemies". It's ironic that you say that we were caught in the backfoot while you have claimed to be "armed with data" when the data out in the public tells us that the documentary makers were asked to edit out the contentious portions and also provide full unedited version which they didn't and the caucasian women carrying the white woman's burden of removing rapes from India (while she turns a blind eye to the same problem back home), went on to sell the documentary (another violation) to BBC even without the green signal from the concerned authorities which she had agreed to do while taking permission to make the documentary. How come you missed such important piece of data hainji ??? Is this your "subtle" way of fighting misinformation campaign carried out by caucasian propaganda machinery ???shyamal wrote:our enemies should not be underestimated. This time we were caught on the backfoot with this unnecessary documentary. Entirely our fault for allowing this. we definitely need to be more alert in the future.
The GoI's action has legal backing as well since the Delhi HC must have found the GoI's stance valid when it gave permission to take appropriate action if the documentary is aired. So pardon me when I ask how come an illegal action by a caucasian women is being blamed on Indians head by saying that the current fiasco is "our fault" ??? Though I agree that we definitely need to be more alert in future and as a first step to that I deem it fit if caucasians on any kind of "study" tour to India are started being kicked out one by one and permanently placed on the PNG list, extending the PNG list to immediate family of the caucasian man/woman kicked out will be cherry on the cake.
