Most observers say that the degree of polarisation in the US today is much greater than in the '60s, with the political elite so deeply divided that bridges may be harder to build.
The MP-author was speaking at an event in Delhi hours after passing of Waqf Bill in LS & before the passing in RS. If polarisation continues, India might lose out, he said.
Pew Research Center, in its essay, analyses trends of elections in over 60 countries in 2024 and finds right-wing populists doing extremely well in Western nations.
Spat between TMC's Kalyan Banerjee & BJP's Abhijit Gangopadhyay at Joint Parliamentary Committee meeting not first such instance. Oppn MPs say JPCs are also being undermined.
Modi’s AMU address after Shah’s CAA remarks suggests govt has realised downside — for international relations, and internal security — of pushing too hard on politics of Muslim exclusion.
CSE, one of India’s oldest bourses, is edging towards a voluntary exit. It could never recover from market manipulation scam that caused a payment crisis at exchange back in 2001.
Fresh details of operation conducted by IAF, Army have come out in gazette notification giving citations of those who were awarded Vir Chakra for their bravery.
Education, reservations, govt jobs are meant to bring equality and dignity. That we are a long way from that is evident in the shoe thrown at the CJI and the suicide of Haryana IPS officer. The film Homebound has a lesson too.
They (the American right) have made Charlie Kirk into some kind of idol and are even trying to equate him with Martin Luther King Jr. Also, he has deliberately said very controversial stuff (which has been glossed over in this article). Yes, there are lots of problems with the American left, but trying to blindly pin Charlie’s murder on them is a terrible idea.
I would also like to quote Spencer Cox’s exact words after the killer was apprehended. “For the last 33 hours, I had been praying that this person (who murdered Charlie Kirk) was from another country. That he was not one of us because we are not like that. But it was one of us.”.
Kirk was as Ezra Klein points out in NYT doing politics the right way. However, Ezra‘s article found dramatic opposition from democratic supporters. Kirk‘s way of promoting free speech might be at least momentarily, the biggest casualty of his passing. It was a phenomenon across universities that students whether they were defeated in debates by Kirk or not that they had come to Openly talk about issues that were previously not OK to talk about the Democrat camp had made universities into echo chambers, where only Democrat views where branded as good and truly American while other views were sullied as extreme right wing and bad for America and not worthy of own debates. Kirk single-handedly changed that I made conservative politics, cool on campuses. Once again he may have in fact begun to eclipse Trump as a potential young conservative voice that might eventually shift the balance of power within the Republican party itself. He supposed reluctance on American blind support for Israel could have been another reason why he was beginning to be seen as a threat. At the moment, when transgender ism had already been pushed aside as a priority by the trumpet administration there was no immediate provocation for assassinating Charlie Kirk. Yet he was sought out by a seemingly left oriented young man with a person stake in transgender freedom. We might never know what the truth behind all this really is.
Kirk had started questioning unflinching American support to Israel – and paid the ultimate price. MAGA cannot be unless they eschew slavish support to the genocidal zionists.
Come on the print, you can do better…..
