\nWe all have our own political and ideological views and it\u2019s all fine. This is what makes our world diverse, wonderful and chaotic.\n<\/div>\n
\nOur different opinions often create conflict and when political and financial interests clash, these conflicts turn nasty.\n<\/div>\n
\nBut most of the nastiness originates from the left-lib intelligentsia that never tires of calling itself liberal and inclusive, but is the most illiberal lot. And on top of this, they\u2019re also blatantly hypocritical. They can throw their hypocrisy right at your face without blinking an eyelid and you are left thinking, are they for real? Unfortunately, they are.\n<\/div>\n
\nAlthough you can write multiple books compiling instances of hypocrisy among the left-libs, I\u2019m going to talk about the current incident.\n<\/div>\n
\nRecently a talk was to be organized at Delhi\u2019s Ramjas College, and perhaps just to incite an unrest, the infamous JNU student Umar Khalid, who has multiple criminal cases against him for his anti-national and seditious public utterances, was also invited. Naturally there was an uproar and there was a clash between the Akhil Bhartiya Vidyarthi Parishad that didn\u2019t want a student of such a dubious background giving speech at the campus and the Student Federation of India that supports Umar Khalid for whatever twisted reasons.\n<\/div>\n
\nThere was a photo of a student beating up another student. Newspapers like The Hindu published the photographs claiming that ABVP students beat up the hapless and peaceful SFI students, which was proven to be a total lie later on. It was the other way round. The SFI students actually beat up ABVP students and it has been well-documented in posts like these. The actual violence came from the so-called \u201cvictims\u201d and it was perpetrated upon the so-called \u201cculprits\u201d. But the left-lib media twisted the entire event to give it a different colour.\n<\/div>\n
\nAs you can see in the image below, the same Mukherjee is seen beating up a student and then claiming in the TV studio that he and his friends were attacked while the police looked on. The image for the shows that he is from the SFI.\n<\/div>\n
<\/span><\/p>\n
Twitter and Facebook<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n
\nAfter having totally twisted the narrative, nobody from the left-lib media later and said that they had misreported the entire thing. Mischievous hypocrisy at its peak.\n<\/div>\n
\nThe usual stuff happened.\n<\/div>\n
\nBut then, some daughter of a martyred soldier, Gurmehar Kaur surfaced, opposing the ABVP stand and supporting Umar Khalid, in the name of supporting right to freedom of expression. Her picture carrying a paper sheet with the message \u201cI am a student from Delhi University. I am not afraid of ABVP. I am not alone. Every student of India is with me\u201d was splattered all over the social media.\n<\/div>\n
<\/span><\/figure>\n
\nNaturally, as it happens in such situations all sorts of responses began surfacing and not all the responses were appropriate. In fact, some could have even been deplorable. This is the risk of expressing political and ideological opinions on the Internet. It is not acceptable, but the sad reality is, it happens.\n<\/div>\n
\nThe girl first expressed something that goes totally parallel to the discourse favoured by the left-lib intelligentsia and she immediately became the darling of the leftist media and anti-BJP political establishment.\n<\/div>\n
\nOn top of that, she also said how she was being abused on social media and she had even received rape threats. She was immediately called to the NDTV Studios. Issuing rape threats is a serious offence and she should have immediately lodged a police complaint but instead, she decided to give interviews to eager TV news anchors. Another bout of victimhood started in which all the usual suspects came out with heart-wrenching statements of support for the girl.\n<\/div>\n
\nIn between, Gurmehar Kaur even managed to say that his martyred father was not killed by Pakistan but by the \u201cwar\u201d between India and Pakistan. This turned into meme that culminated into cricketer Sehwag posting a picture of himself holding a placard that said \u201cI didn\u2019t score two triple centuries, my bat did.\u201d\n<\/div>\n
<\/span><\/figure>\n
\nSuch a comment coming from the cricket celebrity who cannot be criticised lightly riled up everybody and on top of that, even Bollywood actor Randeep Hooda endorsed Sehwag\u2019s comment, which further escalated the panic.\n<\/div>\n
<\/span><\/figure>\n
\nIt isn\u2019t clear whether the girl has been brainwashed or she really has strong political and ideological opinions, but one thing that clearly stands out is the hypocritical approach the left-lib intelligentsia follows when it comes to recognising victims and abusers. There was a response from Shekhar Gupta decrying the stand taken by Sehwag and Hooda.\n<\/div>\n
<\/span><\/figure>\n
\nStrangely, there was no response from him when this happened:\n<\/div>\n
<\/span><\/figure>\n
\nWhen the Kanhaiya fiasco was happening, a 14-year-old girl challenged Kanhaiya for a debate. Large-scale trolling of that girl happened from left-lib and AAP supporters. Even the Twitter head couldn\u2019t resist trolling a 14-year-old girl just because she had a different opinion and she had challenged the left-lib buffoon Kanhaiya.\n<\/div>\n
\nThere is always selective outrage. Pin drop silence if something happens and talking about it would be inimical to their sustained agenda, otherwise, turn even a small incident into an international outcry.\n<\/div>\n
\nThis is not a rant. I\u2019m just trying to throw some light on the blatant hypocrisy that takes place among the left-lib intelligentsia in the name of protecting the right to freedom of expression and other such lofty, intellectual legerdemain.
