That's it. I give up. Even the damn elite of my country is worthless. Educated, middle-class and above, read the newspaper, and utterly worthless.
India's largest English language newspaper, The Times of India, had this to report as the result of its daily poll:
Is there too much freedom in our country?
Yes: 66%
No: 32%
Can't Say: 2%
What makes this all the more horrifying is that this was asked on Independence Day. That's right, we're denigrating our freedom on the very day on which we're supposed to celebrate it and honour those who fought so that we could have it.
I sometimes wonder what the point it. If everybody wants to live in an authoritarian hellhole, why shouldn't the lovers of freedom simply migrate away to the Western world and let the country go the the dogs? After all, that's what the people actually want, anyway.
