#Tamil superstar-turned-politician C Joseph #Vijay stuns powerful rival incumbent #DMK leader #MKStalin (named by his dad after #Russia's #Stalin).

Good riddance to a man who has made a career out of language #bigotry.

#TamilNadu has a LONG history of #languageBigotry with malapropos use of the word #slavery when it comes to other indigenous languages, preferring slavery to English instead.

Nobody ever asked them how speaking a different language "enslaves" anybody.

TVK’s stunning debut in Tamil Nadu is this election cycle's biggest story. Vijay’s party has emerged as the single largest with 107 seats, ahead of the DMK and AIADMK alliances, but short of the 118 needed for a majority. What explains this result? @roshankishore.bsky.social, Abhishek Jha and I looked at the numbers here https://www.hindustantimes.com/india-news/the-numbers-behind-tamil-nadu-s-political-earthquake-101777951112899.html
