It is easy to spread hate against rich, famous, elite who most people are envious of anyway as they have whaf ordinary masses can never attain.
There are many crook corporates too but BJP depends on them for funding so they will not target them.
Their target is Bollywood, academia, elite unis, students, writers, scholars etc.
It was masterstroke to divert focus from COVID mismanagement by using SSR death and running headlines and hashtags against Bollywood or claiming all big stars are druggies.
It’s not just within the country. There are people NRIs who sponsor for this as well. If not sponsor, adding fire to this if you check their profiles. Their NRIpan may be brings some credibility to this pathetic attempt of diversion. To see that these are people who themselves moved to safer countries, first world countries to raise their kids in better env. and still supporting the IT cells and Bhakts who are literally ruining the country is daylight hypocrisy and hurts. Even mindless bhakts are better because in the end they or their future gen are going to be paying for this, would realize their mistakes. But the opportunistics are plain nasty. If the env. and future is so bright here, why opting out ?
BJP IT cell (and Right wingers mostly, worldwide) have been using the online platforms for their propaganda through illiteracy and half knowledge. While liberals spent years in knowledge, books etc. (have always been the case) RWs tool is illiteracy and spreading hatred. I am glad today after 7-8 yrs people have started discussing how Online platforms have become political tools. Not too bad, gives me hope that there would be an end to it.
