This tweet by a retired wealthy industrialist with too much time on his hands and no idea what to do with it illustrates what is wrong with India.

He extols the virtues of a clay water storage unit, the surahi, from the mid-20th century.

Of course, while he lives in unimaginable luxury, the likes of which we can't dream of.

It's a foolish comparison, because the surahi can only store and cool water by a few degrees, whereas the fridge can cool anything, preserve food, and make ice (needed for his scotch).

But that didn't stop Indian twitterati from going ga-ga over his tweet. Why?

Because if there's one thing guaranteed to give you applause in India today, it is hearkening to the past.
Our grandparents had the most wonderful life. Our country was great in the good old days.

The tip of a very large iceberg & yet the deep state hounds Trump for 6 years with every dirty trick in the book because they're afraid of him.
Where is our vaulted blind justice system?
All the while, Joe Biden openly lies & flaunts his ability to avoid any scrutiny of himself or his family by the DOJ.

How a mispronounced word re-named a country:
Marco Polo was an Italian explorer known for helping the Mongol emperor of China, Kublai Khan on expanding his realm.
He became the most important explorer in the court of Kublai Khan. Today, he is credited for being one of the most influential explorers of all time.
When Marco Polo visited the Island of Mogadishu, Somalia, he mispronounced Mogadishu as 'Madagascar'.

2-hay una Diferencia entre Sátira Política y Violencias de género

Episode 1 / L'origine de la Peste noire. D’où vient cette épidémie qui ravage le monde à partir des années 1330… ? Les responsables, dans l'ordre : le soleil, la pluie, les gerbilles, les Mongols et les Génois. Un thread ⬇️ !
Depuis le début du Xe siècle, en Europe, il fait chaud : c’est le Petit Optimum Médiéval. Celui-ci permet une rapide croissance démographique dans tout l’Occident féodal (exemple Angleterre : 1,7 millions en 1086 ➡️ 4,7 millions en 1290), également attestée en Inde et en Chine.
Et puis, à partir des années 1250, tout change. Le climat évolue rapidement à l’échelle du monde, se refroidit peu à peu, pour se stabiliser à nouveau autour des années 1370 : c’est ce qu'on appelle le « Petit âge glaciaire », qui dure jusqu’au début du XIXe siècle.
