U r talking about -
Impalement of the Jains in Madurai
It was a pious Shaivite triumphal fiction with zero confirmation from Jain sources. In other words the Jains have never claimed that they were persecuted or impaled. If u can show in any

I also noted the images displayed on the temple wall where this persecution is claimed were wearing the sacred thread which is common to Brahmins. So ,they were most probably

In Buddhism case ,The Buddhist texts do mention their persecution at hands of Hindus .
But than i pondered
If People left Hinduism when they adopted Buddhism but if that was so ,than it should have happened to every other place where Buddhism spread

Bonpo Religion in tibet,
Confuciaism,taoism in China ,
shintoism in japan,
Native Pagan traditions and
tengrism,Shamanism,Animism in South East Buddhist Nations
remained intact until recent takeover in last centuries.

So on what assumption can u

Furthermore I found several holes within Buddhist narrative .
Eg - Balaji idol is Buddha's and Vaishnavas converted it later iwth hindu symbols on it.
I investigated and found - Balaji has four arms - no statue of buddha has four arms.
Don't mean to be a negative nancy, but I **really**, really, dislike this trend of some Punjabi artists in the West now churning out artwork by making their own "covers" of popular magazines with photos from the protests.

Lot of genuine problems with this


For one, when these are shared on social media, the image is what captures attention, not the caption - a LOT of people are sharing these in groupchats/posting online with the assumption that they're real. Have had to correct some of my fam in India saying it's just artwork

This just adds to general misinformation, which is really not ideal at a time when we see coordinated efforts to spread that - the facts should stand out above all

Secondly, this gives really easy currency to those saying that farmers are protesting the bills because they're unknowledgeable; some Indian media outlets have already scored points off the National Geographic cover, "fact checking it", and inferring all info is as such.

Another problem is a lot of the "headlines" are lifted from other news stories - for example, the Rolling Stone "cover" literally copied the headline of IP Singh's great article (covered here). Give coverage to the people actually writing these
Neither https://t.co/00NDYv81XX nor https://t.co/3tPOCsz4Yf are swadeshi!!

Friends, not everyone is technical and we Indians are very fragile to fall into the trap when people whom we trust mislead you.

I'll be proving this in the thread and will guide you to check it yourself.

Open
https://t.co/LTrVdSOQHw in any browser and hit F12 on your keyboard, it will open DevTools (you can adjust it in right half or below half or the screen). Go to Network tab in the DevTool and click any of the column header and enable Domain and Remote Address if they are not.


Now you can scroll up and down and check what connections are made, and they are basically 2 except some libraries and fonts.

1. https://t.co/LTrVdSOQHw (109.73.160.221)
2. https://t.co/SOFzVJWNdC (52.219.133.12)

Let's now find out with these IPs where they're hosted...

Any whois service can give us details about their owners. Open https://t.co/xD8mnE2YKr (or any you like) and search these IPs.

1. https://t.co/JsCSIfeH6Q
2. https://t.co/JXjPuBoQBM

First one is a RIPE IP and second one is ARIN, European and American IP network respectively.

Now, let's find on RIPE and ARIN who really owns them.

1. https://t.co/kTgtVCnRkg

2. https://t.co/4wxWQhyMEN

They are owned by HostDime UK and Amazon Technologies USA.

Note that the Asian(Handling IP for India) counterpart of these are APNIC.
1/n) This is one of the reasons why India never went with either F-16 of F/A-18 for MMRCA and will continue to have doubts over buying F-21/F-35/F-18 etc.


2/n) Sanctions (after Pokhran-2) or cutting off military aid in the past (see thread by Tanvi) meant that US could unilaterally cut of military supplies to toe their line

3/n) Even though India signs a deal in future for let's say MMRCA 2.0 but if the administration in D.C. changes or if the administration in power suddenly decides to shift course India will be left hanging in the wind.

4/n) IAF which is in a precarious position over squadron strength would be dealt a body blow if supplies were halted something like CAATSA

5/n) If the US is serious about deepening a long term strategic relationship with India in face of an ever aggressive China it needs to see that measures like CAATSA do more harm than good.
