21 ways of detecting a closet Sanghi
1. I am not a fan of Modi, but (whatever blah blah that follows....)
2. The media is hyping up these lynchings, it's not so bad. Besides, I have a Muslim driver who brings biriyani for us on Eid and I pay him ten rupees bakshish.
3. My heart bleeds for the talaq prone and burkha clad Muslim women, but Muslim men being lynched ? Why is that a big deal? (See point # 2)
4. India (read ancient Hindu India or Hindu kings) was so awesome that it gave refuge to persecuted Parsis, Polish and X, Y, Z, so keep calm in face of lynchings, we are a great nation.
5. I change my FB DP whenever there is a terrorist attack in US or Europe by a Muslim (who cares about Middle East or Africa?), but post photos of Palak paneer when Muslim men are lynched in India.
6) will refuse to believe Muslims are a minority even when confronted with census data.
7) will say "i have faced problems with Muslims" because to him/her, thug who happens to be Hindu is a thug while a thug who happens to be Muslim is Muslim.
8) will always claim minority appeasement is rampant. If you point out that even educated Muslims have problems finding houses on rent, getting credit cards, loans or jobs, they will say "what about Malda?"
9) will cite terror attacks like 93 Bombay blasts but ignore the fact that while people have been hanged for it the leaders who organised the riots before the blasts were accorded state honours.
10) will point to four marriages and ignore the tax evading instrument called Hindu undivided family.
11. Where were you when Pundits were being lynched and thrown out of Kashmir? Never mind if you were 10 or 15 year old then. You have no right to complain now.
12. See you have freedom to protest in India, try doing this in Pakistan. Implying shut up, we are still better than them. Wait till we become like them then you will not be allowed to protest either.
13. Psuedo secular, AAPian, Khalistani, ISI agent, anti national........You only show the negative side of our great country.
14. Shed crocodile tears finally when all fails. Say I am against both psuedo secularists and hindutva. Both are enemy of the nation.
How about the following too?
15. Muslim population is increasing rapidly and very soon they'll be the the predominant community (disregarding the fact that Muslim growth rate has slowed down & Hindu population is the one that's growing at a faster rate thanks to the preference for boys)
16. All troubles in India are due to Nehru & 60 years of Congress misrule.
17. Who believe that trees and rivers are necessary for the environment, yet never condemned one mega event 'world cultural festival' that caused irreparable damage to the Yamuna floodplains in that particular region
18 who are convinced newspapers lie, but believe whatsapp forwards
19) will, while shifting goal posts, eventually arrive at "what abt Haj subsidy" without having a clue what it means and how it has actually compensated for some of the losses Air India has made.
20) Who believe that burning cow dung (an organic matter) releases Oxygen and is thereby beneficial for the environment.
21) All problems in the entire country are due to commies & leftists. Hey but wait... only West Bengal & Kerala were Commie ruled states no?

Three traits of an Indian pseudo liberal – an easy guide to identify them
By
Srivy Anand
Posted on July 2, 2017
Indian liberals have been actively at play in the mainstreams of politics, media and art for decades since independence. Their character, shaped by the aristocratic foothold they enjoyed over the years, has changed considerably and thus the meaning of “liberalism” in India is no longer what a textbook might tell you.
With the rise of the social media, they faced some resistance, but they soon discovered how to “game” this platform as well. From selective “blue ticks” (in the beginning on Twitter) to using their foothold in mainstream media to promote “favourable” social media handles, such as selected stand-up comedians, they know the art of keeping hold on narrative and perception.
This unchallenged power has given rise to an army of the pseudo-liberal talking heads and their cheerleaders. It is not easy to speak against them, but it is easy to identify them.
Let us see how you can recognize them in the crowd with some special characteristics they possess.
Note
: If you are reading this and have ever been name-called as an anti-national/sickular or even an Aaptard, please oblige this piece of work with patience and perspective.
Common symptoms of an Indian pseudo-liberal:
DISGUISE
The Indian liberal masquerades under the hood of being “neutral”. Well, in a country whose major political opposition figures are reduced to theatrical caricatures like Rahul Gandhi and Arvind Kejriwal, what else can one afford to do?
Secondly, it is easy appear neutral if you love Red colour and all the choices you have are shades of Red.
But this neutrality is a mask. More often than not, the receivers of their outrage are extremist elements of only one religious ideology. And more often than not, the receivers of their outrage or contempt are gaffes of only one political party.
When pointed out this lack of neutrality, they usually dismiss your critics as “whataboutery”, but when suffering from rare pangs of honesty, they may justify their bias by saying that the incumbent government deserves more outrage because they are in power.
But somehow this theory fails to see that Trinamool Congress (TMC) is in power in West Bengal, Left Democratic Front (LDF) is in power in Kerala, Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) is in power in NCR, and so on and so forth. There have been communal riots in TMC’s West Bengal, ideologically motivated daylight murders in LDF’s Kerala and an agriculture crisis in AIADMK’s Tamil Nadu in the recent past.
Try to recollect the outrage, contempt, or activism you saw from the so-called Indian liberals over such issues and against the people in power. You get the disguise?
DISENCHANTMENT
They’re not happy.
Yes exactly. They are never happy.
They will share/rant endlessly about the issues with the current state of affairs, the ones which have been long withstanding, the ones which can’t be solved overnight, but somehow they know that there is only one reason why these problems exist – presence of people who are not like them.
Mind you that they won’t provide a practical alternate solution to the issue at hand. The only solution they have is to protest against and demonize “the other” – the not so enlightened who are not like them.
For example, if you spot
a social media post offering practical alternatives without hyper ventilating, you can safely assume that the person is not your typical “liberal”. It’ll be a rarity to spot even a few approving articles or social media posts with constructive argument/opinion directed towards the policies or problems.
They’re just here to outrage. Just outrage, call names and have a hearty laugh (while being deeply distressed about problems).
After all, who wants to get into “serious” stuff after you spot a nice rib-tickling troll on cow vigilantism and rising “Hindu terror”?
DENIAL
Many of such liberals had threatened to leave India if Narendra Modi became the Prime Minister. They did not want to live in a “Hindu India”. And they are not living in one, they are living in denial.
They deny that people like Narendra Modi or Yogi Adityanath can represent the people of India, despite winning huge mandates.
They deny that there is extremism among Muslims in India, or that Kashmir issue is about Islamic extremism.
They deny that they themselves are intolerant bunch who are not open to dissenting views, and who would trample of the freedom of expression of dissenters on the first possible opportunity. Labeling someone “troll” and “bigot” to silence them is just one of the tools they employ. They have tried to take away jobs of those who disagree, and they give intellectual cover to those who kill in Kannur and Dantewada.
They deny that they can ever be wrong.
CONCLUSION
We, as a country of more than five thousand years of culture of assimilation and mutual respect, are strong enough to tolerate the conveniently twisted pseudo-liberal views, which doesn’t allow assimilation or respect for the tradition.
However, this tolerance will be ill conceived if the “liberals” go on an unjustified tirade with a vile agenda, similar to the one which broke our country into pieces several decades ago.
cTherefore we must identify the pseudo-liberals and keep an eye on their agenda, with a hope that the real liberals take control and save “liberalism” from becoming a bad word for good.

BTW I am not a closeted Sanghi. I am open about it that I support the BJP and Narendra Modi and will work hard to defeat the designs of Pseudo Seculars and Psuecdo Liberals
We made a mistake in 2004 but will not repeat it in 2019. Did you see that these days Modi does not say 2019 he directly says 2022 because he is confident about that.
........... guys like you are Cannon fodder for the mullas and the X'tians.
