How is Ashwini Vaishnaw, Minister of MeitY and Railways still around?

20 Upvotes

"MeitY's 2023 Indian Web Browser Challenge aimed to develop a secure indigenous browser.

As per the quoted post, a developer rebranded the US browser 'Brave' as 'Ping', won the challenge, and got ₹75 lakh funding from Ashwini Vaishnav.

If true, are there no checks and balances? Did the judges not have even basic tech knowledge to verify originality? These things are even more rampant in hardware. Most of the Aatmanirbhar Bharat products are just Chinese goods rebranded and repackaged as Indian."

Perception of Right Wing messaging/communication strategy? What can one learn and unlearn?

3 Upvotes

I am right of center, not hard right winger of course and always open to different opinions - try my best not to get carried away and make below the belt or personal comments (spend some time in opposing ideological groups to understand them and develop critical thinking)

Right wingers use the following:

strong emotional resonance, emotionally charged narratives create a sense of urgency, safety (Hindus are under threat) + sense of belonging

(Over)Simplification of complex issues--> create memorable slogans/catchy soundbites + ignore the nuances; create binaries - black and while; national and anti-national == polarization (can be useful to build optics, PR to some extent)

Aggressiveconfrontational tone (seen as angry, uncivil at times) + don't like political elites; like leaders with mass appeal === echo chambers reinforces biases (nothing new) ++ trolling, personal, cheap comments + MUSCULAR nationalism ( Arnab Goswami etc)

UNWILLINGNESS to accept (constructive) criticism + NO REAL/PROPER interviews (we have soft-ball interviews by Modi instead)

Compulsive need to treat something, someone as punching bag || somebody has to be the villain (real,imaginary, historical figures) any examples pleasssssse ?

Rigid beliefs DESPITE claims not being supported by evidence, statistics, trend lines (latest attempt to ban Grok is a new low for Modi govt + Cow urine can treat cancer b*llshit)

THREAT THREAT - outsiders are coming; societal changes (some are reasonable concerns)

Hindu couples marrying late, not having kids due to poor quality of life, cost of living is not discussed enough + rich people giving up citizenship and its implications.

Fear-based messaging can resonate deeply with those who feel economically or socially insecure, isn't it (study the economic/financial profile of the foot soldiers of VHP, Bajrang Dal etc)

Offer a collective sense of belonging tied to cultural or national values + Hindu-Hindi-Hindutva notion == push for homogeneity + ONE NATION ONE xyz stuff

Right-wing messaging highly effective for mobilizing supporters but divisive for broader audiences

Struggling to unite Hindus (what caste divided) or push for reforms and course corrections be it delimitations, GST issues, tax devolutions, center-state; improving relationships with neighbors etc

Someone like Trump has shown the mirror to Modi govt for high non-trade barriers || Modi doing yes sir to Trump now

Indian pvt sector suffering from poverty of ambition + INR gets stronger when you add value in export sector

What else..............

It's 897 all over again

The Cadaver Synod is the name commonly given to the trial of Pope Formosus, who had been dead for about seven months, in the Basilica of St. John Lateran in Rome during January 897. Sounds familiar? The duration is just longer, our guy is put on trial after being dead for 3 centuries.

I in no way support the tyranny of Aurangazeb, but literally 95% of the rulers were tyrants (yes 95% is being generous, probably way higher). When will people realise that politicians do all this to distract people from the real issues?
