Managed to brainwash normal people also. If you repeat one thing many times people will find it to be true.
BJP just whips hate against the elite or what masses cannot or do not have. So bash scholars, intellectuals, elite unis, bash stars, writers...easy to tap frustration of gawaars who never made it to big unis nor have talent neither think independently. Add hate for minorities, women, caste, or drag name of ISI and lo, your potlical khichdi is ready.
@bold — So whoever makes it to big Uni is intelligent person?
And who says whatever scholars and academia is saying is the gospel truth? Are you saying a scholar do not have propaganda? There are number of terrorists who belong to great academic background.
Scholar and academia proves nothing.
It’s this superiority of Left which has hasn’t done them good. Looking at anyone with gawaar lenses.
I know English and so I am superior to you. Says who? A brown sepoy who did the duty of British empire. Ingrained colonialism. 😆
An illiterate Farmer can be more intelligent than your everyday scholar.
