Move over Amit Varma

Update: Ok I didn't realize at the time of writing this post, but H.E. had just suffered from personal tragedy, hope God gives him strength to face the sorrow.

You have to give this. His eminence has his shtick, which basically comprises of poorly constructed arguments and a cheery ignorance of reality. Whatever be the case, it is popular and so I guess it is all right. I wonder however, what exactly is wrong with this boy, Nilu. He writes an article on TN politics, which is reasonably good. Not content with this however, he has to spoil it all by almost mandatory dravidian effluvium of "distinct identity", "Indian state".

Here is a helpful reminder for Dravidian chauvinist pigs like him (and that other moron Balaji who used to troll INI).

TamilNadu can no more claim exceptional status owing to its heritage and culture than Bengal, Maharashtra, or Gujarat can. No matter which region one is from, one can proudly make claim to a heritage and history. But this doesn't negate the idea of India. India is not a monolithic identity which refuses to take cognizance of existing history forget annihilate it. Instead it is a affirmation of our history, a celebration of all our memories which live today in us, and also recognition of the fact while we have diverse traditions in conclusion they have influenced each other and have coexisted largely peacefully with other traditions over the millennium, that in the end we have one history, that India is the ocean in which all rivers merge in the end.

Of course this is something which is incomprehensible to Dravidian nut cases like Nilu*, who have never seen India beyond Chennai, and who spout garbage under the pretense of manufactured identity, which is nothing but juvenile rejection of Tamil identity as part of India. This is nothing but political equivalent of teenage rebellion, resentment and offense for sake of it.
This jingoism, fueled by bogeyman of other (in this case India as monolithic imperial entity occupying the glorious Dravidistaan), is just one more in the long line of Pakistan, J & K, Khalistan, and like its predecessors injures the soul of India.

I think it makes good sense to relocate such idiots to Lemuria.

* It is especially pathetic to see some Tambrams becoming whores for chauvinistic Dravidian movement, a severe case of Stockholm syndrome.
