I’m fish
And I’m net
I’m fisherman
And I’m time
I’m nothing

I’m not among the living
Or the dead

Is this only about being argumentative for sake of being argumentative—wherein people’s lived experience somehow ends up being inconsequential? Have a good day.

Does this include the banking system in India? Why make such easy to disprove generalizations, there is enough outrage and despair to be farmed as it is?

What was RFK jr doing before his political rise?
“In the summer of 2005, Rolling Stone and Salon simultaneously published “Deadly Immunity,” a 4,700-word story on mercury in vaccines written by Robert F. Kennedy Jr.”

The op has clearly discussed why ordering in isn’t cheaper than cooking at home. Nothing of more interest is gained by further discussions on this basic, globally applicable fact. Thanks.

Especially, considering, how millions of folks have already changed their entire way of living—including being forced to leave their homes—due to climate change, and not just in the remote parts of the world.

India was certified as polio-free in 2014, the last reported case in 2011. The effort it to took to get there; every living Indian is a witness to that.
Anti-vaccine folks are pure evil.
(American exceptionalism is a curse on humanity—this entire election cycle proves that.)

Palestinian voices are active on Meta platforms too. Emerald mining & apartheid too were/are built on blood.
I don’t think I am the one who is misrepresenting anything, on the contrary, I was seeking clarity: Who gets to decide where the moral high ground lies? I can guess the answer. So thanks!

Ma’am, you (and Prof Singh) are the ones telling the Global South what to do. I am just replying to you. I don’t have any advice for anyone in India or anywhere. Have a good night.

This isn’t an argument that anyone can seriously make eg.,a news organisations like Khabar Lahariya.
There is no country that isn’t constructed on blood and garbage (Javier Cercas). Same goes for all social media.
So maybe the only morally impeachable stand is to delete all social media.

The folks in the Global South were never finding community on Twitter, except for a handful of English speaking liberals. They never owned any ground to cede to begin with. So why should they care if the platform exists or not? And why should anyone insist they care?
