the creation of anti-democratic thinking

in response to this article in ibnlive.com

http://ibnlive.in.com/news/dmk-will-have-to-elect-my-successor-karuna/147458-37-64.html

vnv sreeram asks,"When is he planning to die"

ct2009 tells,"innocent? Really. Gross. Hpe to see the day kanimozhi is hanged in the scam just like A Raja!"

vsumamagesh tells,"He is fooling the people of tamil nadu, even small boy knows the scam, entire country knows about the scam, Media making big mistake taking interviews about this cheap people, As Media person you will not be knowing about the scam and scale and volume of scam. one of the biggest scam in the history of India. If Supreme court not interfered, scam will not known to people, karunadhani, is scientificly robbe the country money."


hariramji1981 tells,"Big Boss - How can you compare DMK with Sankara Mutt. A pontiff appoints his successor to carry on the activities of the Mutt and follow strictly the Pujas/rites that has been laid out. But your successor will work and aid in improvising "lakh crores" scams to "crore crores" scams. Though I personally do not agree to the principles of Anna and Periyar - I respect them in one way - for they never inducted their family into Politics and made the entire family "crorepathis". Please make one of the non family member as a chief minister and Party head - if you still want to use the names of Anna and Periyar without causing disgrace to their names."


all of these people talk about death, hanging,cheap people, and crore crores scams. they are expressing their opinion about the DMK  and the chief minister of the state of TamilNadu. This is not some ultra-rabid fringe loony fascist website. This is also not a website that is far away from the mainstream. This is a channel in the mainstream and some elements of this english-speaking, supposedly educated mainstream are emitting their opinions with regard to impending elections in the state of Tamilnadu.

Why have these people become like this? they are obviously speaking under the influence of 176000 that has been cursed to have been visited on us? maybe, it is not a curse, and maybe, it is actually facilitating such episodes wherein we are able to bring some sense to the misled sections among the english-speaking classes. It also makes us seethe with anger at the foolishness of the CAG.  When the matter is finally resolved, as it soon will, the CAG must be asked to do some community work in atonement for making fools of those of us who are eager to believe that politics is a corrupt activity.

In a democracy, why do all these people become like this? it is because the channels like cnn-ibn, timesnow,ndtv, headlines today, think they would be able to survive only when they emit a missionary zeal. for a missionary zeal, there is a very basic necessity for a wrong-doer, a target. without a target, what does the missionary do, how does he do his work. the bjp has the muslims, the l-e-t has the hindus, george bush has al-qaeda, al qaeda has the west etc...if the people working for the electronic media work for humble salaries, their channels will survive without the need to create targets for their audiences. they can just take a look at the BBC  which provides nourishing, creative, and elevating programmes, which take the viewer to a position where he/she is satisfied with the life on earth. we in india have been cursed to witness pathetic modern-day beggars, sitting in air-conditioned studios, and sporting suits. Arnab Goswami and Rajdeep Sardesai do not know what it is to present the situation as it is for the viewer. They do not know the art of maintaining neutrality. They only know that at 9 pm every night, they need a target that their audience can hate. These modern-day beggars do not apply their mind, do not evaluate and weigh the issues. if they had, at least a few of them, the cag would have been hauled up very much before the supreme court has to do it. the effect of such chasers of the good life are in front of us in the form of the above-said letter writers.

the dignity versus the disease

A Raja tells nobody is above scrutiny---times now tells raja loses bravado
raja tells he will prove his innocence---times now tells raja falls in line---time now tells tainted raja cornered by cbi

while the minister maintains his dignity in the face of the utmost monkey behaviour....the diseased middle-aged characters of our electronic media, who are on tv because they speak english, go about behaving with the most un-indianness, descending to losing every sense of balance in the desperation for money and the necessity to survive and sustain, we need to introspect why we have allowed a diseased loutishness to be performing its dance. why does a person who talks good english need to tell that a minister loses his bravado and that a minister falls in line and that he has been cornered as if the talk is about some mafia don on the run...why is there a court and why is there a parliament, when a minister can be labeled as losing bravado and falling in line and being cornered...will these diseased characters have it in themselves to look beyond their monthly paychecks and realise that they are the interlopers, the parasites, that makes a living by scrambling and picking up anything and everything that might be thrown by anyone..the most dishonorouble pursuit of a human being in todays world can be to be someone working in some of our television news channels today.why live like this?is that what civilised people do to get business.do they try to attract the customer by performing loutish acts of desperation..do they maintain business by attracting crowds that portray a sense of success or do they succeed by selling quality goods.

and then, we have some wise idiots telling us that raja is not being attacked because he is a dalit.

alyque padamsee and shobhaa de

i think alyque padamsee made a fool of himself and also the times now channel on which he was, on counting day.
how much longer are these people going to act and pretend that they are in a position to know the political process better than those who are in it.
these people are trend setters for the rest of the educated populace who think that the only way to know and follow politics is to express mockery,derision and ridicule at those who are running the country.
there is not the slightest respect for leaders who are participating in democracy.
everyone is shown as lacking the talents that these people possess and deliver,though in other areas,like helping to sell all kinds of products and services,and writing fiction.
these people have no membership of any political party as it might not be a great help in their respective careers.it also helps maintain the attitude that they present,of being better and cleverer than the simple people who just govern.
it is a total assault on our civilisation to have to witness these people behaving on television as if the politicians do not deserve any respect.
sections of the younger generations who who have grown up in the capitalistic world will think that this is the way to approach and view politics.
as an activity at which we should turn up our noses.
such activities and behaviours are what attract viewers and hence are those which will be presented,unaware that it is anti national behaviour,the enemy within,all under the lofty mistaken impression that this is how democracy should be expressed and practised.
p.sainath also did his reputation harm by being in the company of such rank morons,though he was possibly sitting in better company and a better channel.
the one question that he was repeatedly asking about what have you done was handled with discomfort by tom vadakkan,who would have replied that we provided governance had he not been too much under the influence of the electronic media.
p.sainath himself should write about why nothing was supposedly done,was it because the people in governance feared doing something,or were they not in touch with the people who voted them.
if they were such total wastrels,did the people not have any alternatives.were all the people who voted in favour of stability over everything else.for,they had a variety of alternatives including one front which had ruled earlier.
sainath,in the search for excellence,allowed himself to be seen as ridiculing the people who might not have been exemplars but were performing their duties in the course of which they had also been re elected.
some others,like rahul bajaj,were expressing the fear that without an opposition the ruling front would be non performing and even arrogant.that would be possible if it is a family owned enterprise run by spoilt brats,not where there is always the presence of competition which propels the best man forward.
the leadership has consistently proven that it is always worthy.
rahul bajaj will be cured of his misconception if he follows and watches the aiadmk and its leader and channel for a while.
the ruling party is evil,narakasura etc in the opinion of jayalalithaa.
in the face of consistent rejection of the people and flying in the face of decency and common sense ,jayalalithaa is performing her tirades,which can only be occasioned by the types of calculations that the channels are fond of discussing,the too cleverer by half variety,the we know it all variety,we know the caste calculations,community calculations etc.these awarenesses are what makes a clever tv host who will always be smiling wryly in the company of alyque padamsee and shobhaa de.
