When will India’s Brahmin Stop Fooling the Masses? Dehumanising Stephen Hawking
The great scientist Stephen Hawking must be rolling in his grave after hearing that the Indian Brahminical media declared him a Brahmin, and in the Indian Science Conference, the minister claimed that Stephen found the more important theory in the Vedas. This is what happens when there are no heroes of their own to claim, they try to co-opt others. India is yet to an equivalent of Voltaire among the Brahmin who came forward and vow to destroy the caste system. The Samurais of Japan gave up their status to build Japan, but the only thing that Brahmins did to the country is to disintegrate and divide and humiliate India by claiming foolish claims over what belongs to others.
The Science conference should be scientific and not Vedic. If the Vedas are so great, why the IITs do not replace the entire syllabus and ask the students to study the Vedas. India was a nation looking backwards, but it is happening so fast that we will remain lower than the level our country exists today.
For instance, take our neighbour China. The way they eradicated poverty and brought out over 600 million people out of poverty is an example for India to imitate. If we can learn anything from any country, that is China and its developmental program. Instead, the RSS/BJP is busy playing in the hands of global capitalism as warned by Putin that India might be already compromising its sovereignty. The growth in the science and technology in China is so advanced that soon they will be at the top of the tech systems. Even to defend our country in the wars, the Vedas are not going to help. We need to work for the real progress of the people and communities: the agenda that is fully missing in India.
The RSS/BJP government is stopping the educational institutes when the government should fully fund them instead of the ventures of Adani and Ambani.

It’s not co-opting. It’s usurping the legacy of others and then blatantly staking claim to it. Culture of encroachments, whether it is temples or human rights.
