How The Far-Right Could Cause Genocide In India | The Mehdi Hasan Show
In addition to Hungary’s Orban and France’s Le Pen, there’s another place where far-right and supremacist ideology is on the rise — and in this country, it’s become so powerful and pervasive that scholars worry about genocide. Genocide expert Gregory Stanton and award-winning journalist Rana Ayyub join Mehdi to discuss what’s going on in India and why it should frighten us all.

Hawaii just found a way around Citizens United. Other states are following.
Hawaii just made history, becoming the first state in the nation to effectively ban dark money in elections. The new law takes a novel approach: rather than trying to restrict corporate speech, it redefines the powers corporations have in the first place — and political spending is not among them. The strategy, known as the “Corporate Power Reset,” was developed by Tom Moore of the Center for American Progress. And at least a dozen states are now working toward passing similar laws.

Is the Right’s theory of MEN’S happiness dependent on HUMILIATING other people?
Ken Paxton’s list of scandals keeps growing – from his wife’s tweet last summer (”Today, after 38 years of marriage, I filed for divorce on biblical grounds”) to “Wall Street Journal” reporting last week that he rang in the New Year in Dubai a couple years ago with two fugitives from justice. But if you listen to Republicans, his opponent James Talarico is the real monster. “The Atlantic” writer Adam Serwer joins Chris to break down how the right has tried to turn Paxton’s negative qualities into positives by painting real men as jerks and men like Talarico are, well, not men. Serwer argues this Republican strategy has been heavily influenced by the toxic manosphere that’s been brewing in this country. “If we can make men feel insecure about themselves they will adopt right-wing views in order to feel better about themselves,” he says. “And then they will vote Republican.”

Corruption catches up with Trump as voters make it a top election issue
A new Fox News poll finds that government corruption is the top concern of American voters, which not only puts Donald Trump at a deep disadvantage, but also means the billionaires spending to keep Trump in power may see their participation backfire. Michael Steele discusses with Chuck Rocha, senior advisor to the Talarico Senate campaign, and Rob Flaherty, former assistant to President Biden.

Haha, the irony! Muslims are the second biggest majority in India. Faiths born in India like Sikhism, Jainism and Buddhism never cause suicide bombings terrorist attacks, squat on other religious places and roads, nor do they take away most amount of welfare dole outs by the government.
I trust Mehdi to lie through his teeth and further his career by presenting propaganda instead of the ground reality. Muslims not just in India, but across the world are squatters and take away benefits that actually would help the deprived.
Mehdi an apologist for Islam and its dogmas making another episode to further his career as a propaganda artist masquerading as a journalist.

Don't blame hindus only. Muslims too should be blamed of what they did in kashmir with hindu kashmiri pandits. There was a genocide of kashmiri hindu pandits done by some radicle Islamic groups. This even exists today . In Pakistan hindu girls are forcefully converted to islam. They are kidnapped and converted . Nobody talks about what is happening in Pakistan with minorities. Churches are demolished in Pakistan to build mosques and other things. Many hindus came back to india from Pakistan because they didn't feel safe there .

December 11, 2023 at 9:55 pm
let me tell you its rss is not a hindu supremacist organisation but a brahmin supremacist organisation
rss is a brahmin supremacist organisation which uses hindutva to bring themselves in power
there entire ideology comes from italys facism and bjp is just its political front the real power lies in the hands of rss and there entire leadership is brahmins
rss was a foundation formed by these maharashtrian brahmins mostly konkanasta and deshasta brahmins
rss cadre works exactly like british colonial army because it was the idea formed in british intelligence bureau to form anti congress group
you can see the similarities in sanskritisation of commands like
attention became daksha
and “stand at ease” became upavisha
there commands just became sanskrit
any political organisationin the world does it have quarter master generals?
but rss has “Bhandar pramukh” post.
In pune’s narayan peth they eat in a military mess
even there head quarters in nagpur is like a military head quarters
there entire ideology is brahmin supremacy not hindu supremacy but brahmin supremacy with totalitarian control over entire india instilled with patriarchy you can see sign with the naming of the womens rss organisation
rashtriya sevika samiti if men are swayamsevak why are women named sevika why not syayamsevika ?
now coming to why they are seen and use hinduism or “hindutva”
reality of hinduism is that brahmins and uppercaste make only 15-20 percent of population and only brahmins are just 5-8%
and majority of hindus actually are obcs and sc and 14 % population is muslim
in which majority are lower caste muslims because uppercaste muslims created there own seperate country
because they(uppercaste) are a minority they dont really have the votebank but they have most representation in all fields and 95%of indias whealth and entire media is uppercaste
so what rss wants is that there shouldnot be any democracy in india it wants brahmin control over everything and it uses anti muslim sentiments to win elections and erode the democratic lining of our constitution
just as hitler rose by democratic means
they have always historically stayed in power by using the power structures earlier it was brahmin kshatriya alliance when kings were in power then when mughals came they were majority of there advisors
then in maratha empire they got a chance to as they usurped power from maratha and made chatrapati title just a place holder and it was the peshwas who ruled and they instilled manussmriti to its worst extent
when british took power in india they actually took power from Maharashtrian brahmins and some islamic rulers
when they were leaving both the brahmins mostly maharashtrian brahmins and muslims thought they will get back in power but congress party was the one in power with a non brahmin at its leadership (gandhi)
how does rss win elections by increasing muslim hatred they want all these caste to vote under the banner of being hindu and thus making there obcs think that they have become honorary equal to brahmins but internally they dont believe in equality because there caste is at the top
its here itself they have fundamental disagreement with the constitution
there alternative constitution which is manusmriti is already ready
@HhshhsHh-dw3qq

December 11, 2023 at 9:55 pm
I think all religions are stupid but I'm with the Hindus on this one. One of the goals of Muslims is to conquer India and to make it an Islamic country. According to Islam, all polytheists are evil and should be slaughtered and Muhammad also said that anyone who participates in an Islamic holy war against India will go to heaven. Islam was the aggressor in India, and the Hindus are the natives who are trying to fight back.
Muslims are some of the biggest hypocrites in the world. There is not a single religion more bigoted to other religions than Islam, yet they are the ones who complain the most about the bigotry of others.

December 11, 2023 at 9:55 pm
Mehdi Hasan, you simply don't know India! The only nation that houses more religions known to man. It has survived peacefully overall and it will continue. Stop trying to divide India and Indians. The rest of the World (west of the Indus river), Brits in particular, have robbed the Hindus of their heritage for centuries; we want to reclaim it peacefully without causing hardship to peoples of other religions and countries. If you strive to know Hinduism, you will appreciate our intentions. We can't help people with ignorance and fear. You have nothing to fear from Hindus!

Mehdi is a pro-muslim world and value set guy. He is forever finding faults and sometimes exaggerating them in other world-views and other value sets. He goes after Western values and Hindus in the east with vehemence. Unfortunately, the westerners have become a self-loathing and self-deprecating lot and form a core-audience for such narratives – even though such immense contributions to the world have come from the west. But the Hindus and the people of the subcontinent unfortunately or fortunately, don't have time for such indulgences as they are ambitious and want to emerge from the global south as a developed economy. I have never seen him criticizing the Arab-Islamic world especially when it is in such a donkeys mess, with even a sliver of such passion – he would do a service to the humanity if he chooses to do so.
To anyone who is reading this, please be informed that the Modi government is being a realist on many fronts and India is actually seeing progress. There has never been a material threat to India's democratic and secular values since 2014 – you can be assured of that.
