and like that is the total opposite of what a democracy is.

fuckers like kangana ranaut obviously called them terrorists or anti-national. the islamophobia in india is so rampant that apparently being a muslim makes you less of an indian.

the parallel between the farmers protests and blm is pretty clear. blm protests in america were peaceful and nobody wanted to listen to them?? and once it became violent, racists labelled blm protests as violent and don’t deserve to be listened to?? even if they haven’t been listened to since the very beginning??

its pretty much the same here.

the largest workers protests have been going on here and the government is trying to label the farmers as terrorists or too illiterate to understand the farm laws

and the police are building a wall in the capital to stop the protests. even some of the indo pakistani border isn’t this thick

and the indian news channels are trying to convince us that she doesn’t care about the farmer’s protests and she apparently wants to “dismantle the indian democracy”

india isn’t even a democracy anymore. the government now wants to obstruct freedom of speech by warning twitter of penal action if it doesn’t block the accounts which tweet about the protests.

please, this needs more attention. india is descending into fascism. “democracy” is just a blanket covering the chaos underneath. 

here’s a petition to help

All these bollywood celebs saying wE sHoUlDnT lEt pRoPaGaNdA dIvIdE uS have a special spot in hell. India against propaganda, it seems. There are people dying, and they’re sitting in their homes that are paid for by bjp. And the supporters are shaming Rihanna for being a victim of abuse and supporting Chris brown because they’d rather praise the perpetrator of a crime than a person trying to speak up about human rights issues. I’m just so angry at our fucking government and the people who think all the bullshit modi is pulling is okay

What else can you expect from them whose leader, our beloved Prime Minister- follows trolls who give rape threats to women- on Twitter.

India is on a path to ruin. Intolerance is at an all time high. FIRs are filed against tv shows, comedians are arrested for jokes they didnt make, acts of sedition and UAPA are slapped on student activists and journalists to keep them in jail and stop them from speaking the truth.

The mainstream media is rotting everyone’s brains, vilification of anyone who speaks against the govt reins supreme, and I am terrified. I am terrified of the future, scared of the people around me, and feeling extremely desolate.

Speak up, please. Raise your voice. Support the farmers. Our democracy has been in danger for while now, we need to step up before it’s too late.

for those of you who don't know, music (2021) is a movie being directed by sia about a nonverable autistic girl. not only does it not include any actually autistic people in the movie itself but it also only took advice from autism speaks which is looked at as a hate group by the majority of the autistic community. leaked scenes have also shown the movie glorifying prone restraints which are incredibly dangerous and have resulted in major injuries and even death to disabled people as recently as last year.

autistic people just like me have been incredibly outspoken about how harmful this movie is but the allistic have been mostly silent. we are already seeing reviews calling this movie 'inspiring' and important' and it's absolutely horrific! we need your help calling this out. please stand with us and call out this disgusting display of disrespect to autistic folks.
