We have said this earlier. Unaccountable social media and a culture of virality seeking is damaging the idea of reality itself. If a bunch of self promoting narcissists are going to decide our reality backed by all power algorithms, then the very idea of civilisation is in question.

When a country changes base year, they recalculate the entire series using the new pricing and method corrections. This ridiculous argument that only denominator changes but numerator doesn't is being pushed by so many influencers it defies belief. Every single country on earth keeps updating the base year, it's deliberately made controversial only in India.

Even in law campuses many students are so gripped by the notion that protestors should be able to go wherever they want, they are refusing to see the law they will sell others to earn a living. This suspension of reality is greatly assisted by social media and their little helpers - innocent looking influencers.

This tweet is a masterclass in how conspiracy theories are created and sustained. Akshat Shrivastava hides far more than he shows. Policy changes must face scrutiny, but presenting vague ideas by hiding most information after 10 years is not scrutiny.

In April this year, Indian Instagram was flooded with professionally made reels praising Nepal PM Balen Shah. Even Nepali observers were surprised by it. Why would Indians be so interested in a newly elected Nepali politician who had achieved nothing except virtue signaling announcements with no real impact on the ground. Today, we may be in a better position to understand why. Were young Indian minds being systematically prepped and put in a state of high suggestibility for another social media experiment that was in the pipeline?

After lecturing India on farm laws, Canada famously crushed their own truckers protest using the full spectrum of the state's power. Some Indians living in Canada have internalised the same double standards.

Hey Dhruv Rathee look we also received a fabulous offer to make content that we rejected. Pls comment here 😁 These coordinated childish attempts to target us because we fact checked their utter lies show how manipulative and evil creator "economy" has become. The evil part here is they are manipulating their own viewers, not ours.
