That ghonchu remark is painfully funny and true at the same time. Whatever little interactions i had with district level government officials are flashing back in my memory. Forest officers who knew nothing about forest, civil administrators who had no idea of civic/community problems. Etc etc. Har shaakh par ullu baithe hain, anjame gulista kya hoga.

The amount of podcasts Abhijit is doing recently he may consider to be recognized as the "ear" Mitra

Clever

[@dbmdrums1105]

This is gold. I think Abhijeet just decided ...offscript matalb offscript! Man coming from the left and getting to know the problems from a well ..... " Matured /Rational /Thought Provoking " person is quite the experience. Gora.....twat. god. Abhijeet is George Carlin of International Realtions.(Asia Branch).

[@smthsmthsmths]

The sad part is Abhijit has equally strong opinions about things he knows about and things he hasn't thought through.

[@smthsmthsmths]

And it is interesting how he chooses to be so for free speech and lowers his standards against acceptable homophobia. Very interesting talk tho, good job Vinamre

Abhijit for 2 hrs , what a treat

[@dr.vishwanataak3024]

I like Abhijeets sincerity and Honesty in his opinions.

[@soorajksaju]

I consider Abhijit the best teacher I ever had. His way of breaking down topics to the first principles is such a simple but effective way of teaching, that we seldom see in our society. Always looking forward to learn more from him.

[@iArpanMishra]

[@anshulthakur6215]

bro keep these podcasts coming... u are doing a great job

[@prometheusrebel5809]

Thoroughly enjoyed the talk, the way you two eased into diff' topics was smooth, but more importantly educational. I can't stress enough the importance of travelling & conversing with people from other cultures & way of life, and Abhijit's knowledge & perspective are a testimony to the importance of interacting with the global community from varied backgrounds. If you're young & planning to study abroad, I'd definitely recommend it, you'd not be the same person, hopefully for the better.

[@caesar848]

You should do this more frequently. It was pleasure listening you both.

[@piyush216]

Abhijit's takes are very helpful actually. Thanks. Personally, the single most important concern about India that preoccupies my mind is full blown all encompassing inclusive industrialisation. That's the key to where we end up with this demographics 50 years from now....

[@kumarkumar-ec3vi]

You are 100% correct. At present Corruption is increasing leaps and bounds

It is fine to not appreciate it or interpret it as humour, but it is not fine to do what they are doing in the West, certainly in Canada; curbing such actions through legislation. This contributed a great deal to Jordan Peterson's popularity, for he had opposed one such legislation.

[@JAK131998]

Okay Is it just me who finds part of this problematic? The reason I'm here because one must probably always keep their senses open to the right-wing too. But here's the problem most of the arguments here are largely assertive. 1. They're also based on extremely narrow subsets of data which might not show the whole picture. a) Urbanization or the lack of thereof can't be characterized through 2 small spaces and pockets in Delhi, similarly, the large assertion of hey listen individuals who come to bureaucratic power must come from inherited privilege is also based on a small subset of data. But here's the problem with this argument, for the longest time we/ve been supremely comfortable with our circles based on familial and or educational ties. I'm not denying the fact that hey, there aren't problematic individuals but a generalization based on lack of historical privilege is the basis of massive discrimination and biases? I don't mean this as an attack, I just felt the person as brilliant as they would have been just ending up having assertive argumentation with not much analysis and illustration to it.

[@JAK131998]

@Varad Fair enough, even though I disagree with your theory of the existence of a right wing. As I strongly believe that there is a lack of an economic right wing for sure. However, the difference in our opinions stems from the differences in our lived experiences and that's alright. I have in the past engaged with J Sai Deepak's thought process too. I generally disagree with them. But I'd love to engage and understand your thoughts process on the same. Thank you for reaching out.

[@JAK131998]

@Varad dear friend, I agree they're economically not right. On a comparitive I disagree on their ideas of being socially communist. I think the attachment to identity based on borth being such a dominant part of their narrative takes away from their ability, so sure you'd have a few decisions and PR calls here and there which call for equality and care, yet the undercurrent remains the same. I understand the idea where you come from and I largely agree with you on the economic front. But good discussion regardless.
