Karna gave duryodhan no vachan. That is all tv bullshit to glorify this man. Karna was never held in some higher esteem that is all modern tv adaptation bullshit. The man was worse than duryodhan. In tv the role that shakuni plays is what the epic karna was. Read the text. Never beileve the TV adaptation.

Mahabharata and Ramayana are epics, can we spare it please as a mark of respect. I can post alternative theories/stories on the story of Christianity and Islam, but I won't as a mark of respect.

Let us refrain from posting about this.

Nobody is posting alternative theories. The fact that karna is sexual predator is given in the actual text which people don't read believing tv adaptations.

Plus i don't see the reason for bringing in islam or Christianity. I am hindu FYI

Alternative theories? 😆Please read the epic. Free versions (both English and Sanskrit) are available at sacredtexts.com. Or if you want to buy the English translation of the Critical Edition, they're available on Amazon.

Vyasa was pretty blunt about what Karna was. So was Krishna.

It's modern day writers and filmmakers who have turned a sex assaulter (who was sexist and casteist to boot) into a misunderstood hero.

I also heard that during their final journey or somewhere else (IDK) Draupadi tells her husbands that she should have married karna??? Is that also a myth??

Yes all of that is a myth. Karna was sexual predator. He asks dushashan to drag draupadi into "inner chamber where all of them will enjoy her". Those were his exact words. Later when draupadi refuses to bow down to them he asks dushashan to strip her naked to shut her up

Draupadi hated his guts. Krishna hated his guts.

It is adaptation that glorifies this man Never beileve those

Exactly. With this kind of attitude, we might as well stop questioning authority and experts altogether just cuz they have studied in their discipline for x number of years. Even in the research industry, there is a hierarchy of evidence & people question their peers (who are experts in their field). Autonomous learning is so important nowadays IMO because everything is money-driven.

So this kinda lame deference to authority rubs me the wrong way.

I see where you are coming from and you do make a good point .. So i cant say i disagree with you ..

However , as valid as your side of the argument is , it is hardly applicable for Kangana ( the general population for sure , but not for Kangana, never Kangana ) :

You do realize in the same tweets she's belittling the scientist by calling her Dr Dolittle. She's being condescending to the PhD holding scientist and insinuating she has morE knowledge than her. Take a look at the account of the scientist. It's actually her field.

This is embarrassing at this point.
