It is worth noticing that she had nothing to say about atrocities happening in her own backyard. She just kept mum throughout the Delhi progrom, attacks on Jamia/AMU, and the various oppressive measures taken against minorities in her own damn country.
She will not face any real backlash on this particular topic, so she jumped the bandwagon. Whereas it would have taken real courage to speak up about issues closer home (remember what Deepika did and the repercussions she had to face as a result?)
I already know it's a lame excuse, but anyone that states even a minor critism of the current government is labeled anti-Hindu/unloyal so I get your point it's easier to support BLM, but I don't see Deepika or PC posting anything at all despite being more prominent figures in HW & US. Or maybe I missed it so please someone correct me if I'm wrong.
I do agree witht he 2nd paragraph though but there's really no freedom of speech even it comes to criticizing Modi or BJP--it's either you support them blindly or you're unpatriotic. The only ones that have said anything are people that don't live in India like Hasan Minaj/John Oliver, etc.
