“If data is the new oil, then social media is the new opium.” So states this senior member and parliamentarian of a party which has usurped power by weaponizing social media for the purpose of relentlessly, mercilessly attacking and silencing its critics and opponents.
And why is Ms Lekhi lecturing us about the virtues of STEM?! Should she not be educating her own party members, including their supremo, about the need for a scientific temper?
This article bares so many of the same ol’ flaws in her/their thinking, including the shallow, uneducated obsession solely with STEM subjects for the syllabus, that…really…it is pointless debating with them.
I am not as much incensed by these incompetent, corrupt fascists and misogynists for the cruelty and misery they have inflicted upon the nation all these years as by those who enabled them.
Surely, there will be a day of reckoning for the Arun Shouries and Tavleen Singhs. As also for the likes of Shekar Gupta and ThePrint. They helped to legitimize and normalize the untenable views of these violators by eagerly providing unconditional use of their platform to the latter.
BJP leader Meenakshi Lekhi: The youth should asking questions-about science, fast trains, clean energy (Unsaid-Not paper leaks, corrupt ethanol mandates, marital rape and the general functioning of the Government. How dare they mount a “political” protest with a “political” demand like the resignation of a minister. Are they trying to control the “politics” which controls “their life”? Next what? Will they start talking about employment and delivery of basic public services instead of Hindu-Muslim?Will they start asking what their government can do for them, instead of what they can do for their government? Anti-national little cockroaches!)
Maybe by dictating the questions the students should ask , Lekhi Madam wants to rule in peace without being asked the unsettling questions on the sad state of governance in country. Let students decide which questions are worth asking. Political and governance questions are equally important as STEM questions.
