#Intolerance
We asked people how irritated they'd be if a member of their most opposed political party was dating a member of their family, their neighbor, co-worker, or local elected official.
Avg answer = tolerance score. We limited this sample to most and least tolerant.

support to people in other countries who are in need."
The most intolerant group was more likely to agree than the least intolerant.

As Congress won a landslide victory in Karnataka, this face came to my mind. This is the face of Prashanth Poojary. No one remembers him now.
Prashanth Poojary belonged to a humble Hindu family, which ran a family business of selling flowers in Moodbidri, Karnataka. 29 year old… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

The Hindu Right is objecting to historical images of Hindu deities.
This isn't surprising, but it is appalling and, dare I say it, anti-Hindu. Here's how that works...

The "Hindu Right" is a set of groups and individuals aligned on political lines. Some are practicing Hindus, and some are not. They all share allegiance to a political ideology of Hindu supremacy known as Hindutva.
Hindutva thinkers have been intolerant of many Hindu ideas from the start. The godfather of Hindutva ideology, Savarkar mocked Hindu practices, such as cow veneration as lowering the standing of humanity (get angry at him, not me; I find many of Savarkar's ideas offensive).

MP #GautamGambhir questions silence of ‘secular liberals’ amid death threats against #NupurSharma

Nobody has supported the statements made by #NupurSharma. The party has taken strict disciplinary action against her and she has unequivocally apologised for the same: #GautamGambhir
The blatant display of #hatred, #deaththreats against her and her family and coordinated rioting in different parts of the country is a cause of concern: #GautamGambhir
The findings show an absence of a systematic and coordinated plot to take over these schools and an absence of any concerted and deliberate plot to promote radicalisation and violent extremism of Muslim children in these schools or elsewhere

language used to talk about the issues of “radicalisation” & “extremism” is itself the subject of considerable debate (Kundnani 2012; Lynch 2013). There is also a difficulty in understanding fully these issues cos there is a lack of an objective or universally accepted definition
As soon as the media took hold of the allegations, there was huge publicity about the promotion of extremism, radicalisation & terrorism.
At the time, the press also expressed many irrational anxieties about these Muslim majority schools (Arthur 2015). Even though, from the

Blowback & retaliation anticipated today (#Friday) for #PTIGovernment banning #TLP. Mosques & seminaries/madrassas continue to operate beyond #Pakistani state's authority & control. Large scale #protests by TLP supporters & sympathizers expected nationwide after #Jummah prayers.
Taking a leaf out of #France's book, #TLP supporters on #socialmedia are using the hashtag #IAmSaadHussainRizvi (#IamSaadHusaainRizvi - with a spelling mistake - is also trending).
It seems like decades ago, but does anyone else remember #JeSuisCharlie #IAmCharlieHebdo from 2015?

I'm going to tweet photos of some of the people who support @realDonaldTrump and the rest of this #IllegitimateRegime. Just to let the world know the company his oh-so-Christian and other supporters keep.

THESE ARE THE PEOPLE WHO EMBRACE #Drumpf & his message of #hatred, #WhiteSupremacy, #intolerance, #racism, #bigotry, #xenophobia, #misogyny etc.
And after seeing these images, I want ONE notable #Christian preacher to explain to me & the rest of the world how/why s/he can support #Drumpf, whose message, history & lifestyle is antithetical to all that Jesus preached.
But not one will step forward b/c there IS no defense.

@IamPraveenMohan is doing excellent work by bringing out our #truehistory #Hinduism #SanatanDharma & #LostTemples. Earlier @Twitter @YouTube blocked his videos & now @Facebook blocked him. What kind of #intolerance is this? #Islamists/#Leftists/#commies influence on SM platforms?

This is really so bizarre. What r they afraid of? That the truth will come out into open & it will dent their prospects of #islamisation & #christining the world? And Once the truth comes out, people will start following #SanatanDharma by renouncing their religions?

1. With cunning and ruthlessness #China was well on track. It might have become a #GlobalEmpire within another 20 to 30 years. But its own shrowdy , anti democratic and #AntiHuman policies leading to its own #disaster.
2.However in their desperation and over eagerness, China it seems has overplayed its hand on many fronts. Now, by triggering, concealing and manipulating a #CoronaPandemic, China has not only made its dream of empire untenable, it will probably destroy China.
Thread highlighting major trends that lead to Riots in Delhi
1/ Those who read history know- every time US @POTUS visited violence erupted in Kashmir. Why? Global media focus, Democrats affinity to Islam. It's a necessary ritual to keep Kashmir issue relevant

@POTUS 2/ It's a modus operandi across all Islamic fringe groups aided by money from Saudi Arabia & space by Leftist media. 90s same thing repeated in Gaza strip, in Chechnya. Suits US agenda too as helps propagate US system to more countries. Same in Afghan in 80s when Russia present
@POTUS 3/ Modi normalised Kashmir. They brought the fight to Delhi.
Pakistan's state & intelligence runs on the fuel called Kashmir's independence. Kashmir with its Muslim population integrated with India will be an existential crisis for ISI.
They had to respond.

Dear @CCTPolice_Alert @chennaipolice_ I went to drop my friend Central railway station 22nd jun 19 @ 2045 hrs. While I entered into MTC Bus Bay one police officer stopped me nd took my bike key.A group of police officers asked my documents & after knowing I am non #Tamil 1/3
they asked me to pay 1100 for fine. For your information the board is not clear and u better know how bad the traffic is. There were many autos and other motorcycles were also going inside the MTC Bus Bay.When I was ready to pay 1100 they asked to pay 500 without a receipt. 2/3

“Krish holds the distinction of being one of a few candidates who achieved a perfect score on our questionnaire. [She] understands that the growing Asian-American population of Maryland ... is an asset to the state that cannot afford to continue marginalizing.
This is why she is aiming for a more inclusive Maryland, where all of us have a voice at the table, as opposed to a handful of token members.” Thanks to @aademsmoco for the kind words.
Having experienced both #racism and religious #intolerance firsthand on the campaign trial, I intend to fight for Maryland’s #Asian American and #Muslim American communities as #Governor. #mdpolitics #RepresentationMatters
