		<description>Navin, you&#039;re lucky that nobody has called you a Congress-wala yet.

Last time when I received a mail asking to &#039;give a miss call to end corruption&#039;, I replied to all, that this can be a clever trick by marketing companies to build valid numbers&#039; database. One of the recipients called immediately to ask me how much money I received from Congress party to write this mail!!

Then, the Pawar-slap happened. People went on celebrating and orgasming on social media. I asked people &#039;what good did this slap do?&#039; Nobody bothered to think. Instead, I was labelled as an NCP-wala and was offered a slap for myself, too.

What I see here is, people do not want to think. They want quick entertainment and gossip. Something like Baba Ramdev&#039;s salwaar-kameez stunt, or Anna Hazare&#039;s &#039;fast-unto-death&#039; that dilutes and misleads, or Om Puri-Kiran Bedi publicly abusing MP&#039;s, or Raj Thakarey&#039;s &#039;son-of-the-soil&#039; stunts.

Abusing someone is the easiest way of &#039;feeling&#039; democracy. People will continue to call ministers idiots. And whoever doesn&#039;t call them idiots, will also be called idiot. We better accept that we&#039;re living in a truly idiotic society. You either be an idiot and call others idiot; or you not be an idiot and ignore the idiots!</description>

		<description>I am so glad to read this post. At least one more person have thought on the same lines. Adding this to my article for Global Voices. Also read my opinion on the Sibal issue. http://tinyurl.com/czkpewn</description>

		<description>Great piece. Can&#039;t say I agree with everything in it, but certainly set me thinking.</description>

		<description>Oh, I totally agree with you. I always refrain from commenting on such incidents. At times, its just &#039;ignorance is bliss&#039; moment and/or otherwise, I am not capable of saying anything. 

People tweeting/updating about &quot;changing country&quot; is pretty much like construction worker working from home. (Though not exactly wordy, but this argument is borrowed from someone&#039;s twitter feed). 

Of course, I do think that, no matter what you have done in past and the capability you have demonstrated/achieved , there is circumstancial dimension that makes you take such decision? (which might be actually very smart, but they look idiotic outside, after all the the perceiving party is not as capable as you are).</description>

		<description>after reading this blog i had to change my opinion and now i must say 
&quot;you-and-kapilSibbal-both-are-idiots&quot; 

someone who thinks what rakhi sawant does is smart, must be an idiot 

and center point of your whole ridiculous blog is &quot;we can&#039;t see what rich n famous Sibbal can see&quot; LOLLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL    just go and see how this &quot;IDIOT&quot; and all those ministers holding prestigious degrees failed to see that sending ANNA HAZARE to prison won&#039;t go down well with indian public , whereas we all poor mortals , living low life could easily see its consequences &quot; 
So just shut the fuck up 

&quot;Maybe this is a move designed to win over rural voters&quot; - LOLOLOL
This line shows that you are really an idiot a big one too , rural ppl who don;t even have access to internet will give votes to congress because they are asking FB and twitter to censor their content 

This is the most laughable, ridiculous, disgusting and to an extent even appalling blog i have ever read 

My message to you is - JUST SHUT THE FUCK UP 
My message to your rich and famous Sibbal is - GET A LIFE OR AT LEAST GET OUT OF OURS</description>

		<description>Agree with your views. But, I feel amazed that they didn&#039;t raise their voice when pages like &quot;I hate Gandhi&quot; , &quot;F**k India&quot; were active on facebook.
Suddenly, they realized that people were targeting politicians so probably they came up with this decision.</description>
