r/indiaspeaks too. Don't take sole credit for something which everyone worked for.

Dear Indian friends, do you support Russia or Ukraine?

[-] VapidCanary | 1 points | Apr 05 2022 02:55:34

I think most regular people support & sympathize Ukraine but forced by geopolitical reality to stay neutral. Surrounded by nuclear powers on all sides.

Seeing that your post mentioned the indifference of the United States to the massacre in Bangladesh, do many Indians think that the West's attitude on this matter is hypocritical and therefore reluctant to explicitly condemn Putin?I'm against Putin, but I have to say that the US did not play an active role in saving the Bangladeshis

I don't think average person knows intricacies of the geopolitical reality. I was trying to explain how US is a fair weather friend meaning India cannot antagonize Russia or China because no one will come help India when shit goes south.

[-] SeriousTitan | 1 points | Apr 07 2022 07:15:24

Hey I have something amazing to share with you then. India's extreme poverty rate is lower than 1% now. some good news

I'm happy about the research but please read the disclaimer:

Yeah I read that just before sending it to you and hesitated for a second if I am spreading misinformation. I quickly clicked on the document and read it a little. The graphs seems legit and then checked their references because I think that's the most important part. Finding out how biased their sources are and you know? It came clean, I don't find any misinformed sources there. You can always read it and let me know if you doubt the findings.

I don't really doubt the poverty reduction, just the timeline maybe. Tbh just wanted to bring your attention to the disclaimer.

Comments like this on /r/india gave me a pause: https://www.reddit.com/r/india/comments/txkm40/imf_report_says_extreme_poverty_in_india_as_low/i3n6eqc/

We are on track to eliminate soon either way. Check out https://worldpoverty.io/map

[-] SeriousTitan | 1 points | Apr 07 2022 07:37:28

Right, the disclaimer had lead me to double check and I don't necessarily disagree with you on the timeline but the sources check out for me, they seem free of bias and I haven't seen the paper misinterprete any info from there. Then again, we'll find out with more time.

Then again I am hoping that it gets eradicated as soon as possible, so maybe I am biased

[-] VapidCanary | 1 points | Apr 07 2022 07:49:02

I just want less poor people bro. Line goes down; world gets gooder etc. /r/neoliberal pride worldwide.

[-] SeriousTitan | 1 points | Apr 07 2022 07:54:09

We'll move forward. Towards a better sustainable future for all. It may be a fantasy but one that I want to work towards.

Anyways, have a good day.

[-] VapidCanary | 1 points | Apr 07 2022 15:57:23

Also read this about the author of the Working Paper Surjit Bhalla:

&rt; “Bhalla’s method of using National Accounts Statistics numbers to estimate poverty is not new and he had declared poverty to have become insignificant in India 20 years ago,” said Jawaharlal Nehru University economist Himanshu. &rt; &rt; Most economists do not agree with his method, Himanshu said, adding: “That is why we need another round of consumer expenditure survey to ascertain exact trends in poverty and inequality in India.”

[-] SeriousTitan | 1 points | Apr 07 2022 16:05:25

The question is if his methods are standardised and used not just by him for India but for a lot of other countries.

If yes then I see his methods as a valid way to compare ourselves with other countries. If it isn’t however, it could be called in question.

Knowing where Himanshu’s biases lie and how he doesn’t provide a full view of how Bhalla’s methods compare to that for other countries… I doubt him.

That's funny to me, coz this emoji is a meme in China. It start with elderly fooled by game/movie clip and comment "Hope they are alright 🙏", and later become pray troll. Also I know there's a culture of redditors hates emojis except 🗿, so this emoji on a flag is hilarious

Kill more PLA soldiers for us next time when you guys start a fight at the border.

[-] VapidCanary | 1 points | Apr 05 2022 03:23:59

No, violence and loss of life is bad. Borders are stupid anyways. No one even lives in Aksai Chin.

[-] T_F_Catus | 1 points | Apr 05 2022 03:27:55

Understandable, but China will become violent if no countries or organizations are keep it in check though. Taiwan has been living under its shadow for decades and have seen its fair share of violent threats and declaration of war from Chinese people, India might experience it too, just my two cents.
