The open letter by some prominent intellectuals in @Harpers does make sense.
It is an appeal to all, and not just Trump & his friends, to not stifle free speech under some or the other pretext.
Free speech is the lifeblood of democracy.

"I think it is very natural for everyone to want to see their ancestors and their nation as heroic. And if you can’t do heroic, then the move is to see yourself and your nation as a victim."
Sound familiar?

Ridiculous & shocking that @INCIndia is forcing its party members to wear RFID tags & tracking their movements. Immoral & unethical surveillance of cadres by leadership of #Congress

As poets, academics, journalists, authors, students, and assorted other dissenters are jailed across India, we must at least lend them a ear. Priya Ramani reads letters, poetry, books & notes from prison.

Two RW experts were debating US politics yesterday but the reality is otherwise. Political and cultural chasm is too wide to be wished away. Chinese scenario, on the other hand, is much nearer in spite of the present hostilities. Geographical contiguity has many other advantages.

At this point when a pandemic is obdurate, the humanity must stand as one. The human race is one in spite of conflicts between govts. The Mother & Sri Aurobindo stand for harmony and peace and not agression. Those who portray Sri Aurobindo in their pet muscular image are mistaken.

It's not very difficult to perceive that there is Democracy and transparency deficit at present but this is not the time to critically examine the govt. Hunger for optics and political mileage will always be there but then they are part of the package. jingoism too is undesirable
The Ideal of Human Unity is most pertinent at the moment. #COVID19 is also forcing local autonomy which may lead to Sovereignty to the States of India. #WorldUnion too can take a definite shape. Savitri Era Religion will play an important role in this wide-ranging transformation.

First codification; then implementation. First laying down the tenets and then following them. Thus be it Quality or Dharma, the blueprint is essential for building. Domain knowledge, therefore, is crucial; respecting it essential. This is the lesson number One of Dharma practice https://t.co/XAXTE5irXJ
