War

Unpopular opinion perhaps but true to what I argue, problematic is not racism but colourism like “Et tu, …”! As women in Iran fight for rights, Aryan remains a misconception – greed splits human-race and hatred bonds us through fear. Beware, white-blacks-browns-reds-yellow, you’re all mocking and damning eachother – but hypocrites! Worse you do to […]

#Kashmiri Apples

Hard rural boys, dark skinned in their six hundred rupees pants – bought on the roadside, wanted to get them beautiful Kashmiri girls when BJP moved forces into the state; “white babes, with cheeks like apples – darlings me marry yous, wanna be my friendship?” So I told them, perhaps women from their family would […]

#Doublefaced

Everytime I hear someone is – nice, kind, friendly, with practically no flaws, I take it with a grain of salt. Think to myself: hey! Thanks for stopping by, you came prepared with your umbrella, a rain jacket, some rubber boots and an earnest face. You know what to say, what to do, I am […]

I read this article about Bridgerton and had to frown. Yes the show is questionable in its regards – particularly featuring a Black Lord Hastings (wasn’t the real […]

Crazy Positivity

I cannot see myself being optimistic when melancholy is a part of our daily conversation of gestures. Body social and it’s individuation, mimetic synchronicity – one attacks and the other follows.

Here We Are Today

Some dozen phone-apps banned after a bloodsucking Indian government decided to blame shift.No land was occupied, he said. No borders crossed, he said.
