Ya he couldn't accept what he was and he started abusing you. That was his style. Throw names abuse others. He gave others labels like Sanghis or bhakts but if someone called him intellectulal or communists or left leaning he used to fly off the handle and resort to insults.
See? You are still taking things personally........! The day you get over it, and forget Don Corleone's dictum, you will do much better. I suggest you keep your attacks now to yourself. Only if you had had an insight to what he was upto here. @Oscar @Arsalan @WAJsal have a pretty good idea and perhaps I had the pleasure of being told by him of his aim in posting here.
I told you earlier also, he has labelled me a bhakt once, expressed his derision for my 'rightist' views at times, but his only one contention was that base yourself on facts and not on blind following.
The background I have given you about his interaction with me as above, and yet as @Stephen Cohen earlier labelled it a 'friendship', will give you an insight to how he took things. It was based on mutual respect. I have not met the man ever.
And he hated the left too. He appreciated only on merit. Generally hated everyone else as @Oscar rightly pointed out, and I translate his subtleness here, 'subcontinental masses revel in idiocy'.
Thanks.
Communism died worldwide in 1991 (the collapse of the Soviet Union) whereas China renounced it back in 1978 (Deng Xiaoping's economic reforms).
That's several decades ago already. Indian Communists are stuck in a time warp, the only thing they can do is sit in the jungle and blow up random vehicles every once in a while.
That is what you deduce. After a logical analysis.
Who will make stupids understand that?
