@Memeghnad probably because 11K employees are 12% of Meta's headcount, while 3.5K is 50% of Twitter's.
Can't help feeling that there's something deeply & systemically flawed in us.

@NSure @debsnroses @Bhavika It is just a hierarchy of power grabs. When people realize that the duo is in it for themselves, they begin to grab whatever they lust for, all the while enabling Modi & Shah. The corrupt amongst the media gets govt ad revenue, TRPs, clicks; the corrupt amongst the cops get their kills, their arrests, their bribes, bigots get their outlets to vent their rage... there is no overt conspiracy, just a motley gang of debauchees achieving their personal goals in synchrony.

"As the tenure of an elected authoritarian regime grows longer, the probability of its trappings aping Nazis/Hitler approaches 1" - Moshwin's Law

Never stop resisting.

In 1937, an article in The Modern Review critiqued #JawaharlalNehru, arguing that he might cast aside democracy & socialism for fascism and shouldn't get a 3rd term as INC President.
The author? #PeoplesPMNehru himself, warning Indians against deifying a human.

'He calls himself a democrat and a socialist… but a little twist and he might turn into a dictator… His conceit is already formidable. It must be checked'

Sanjay Jha "apologized" to Anil Ambani after the #Rafale verdict. I don't think his apology was strong enough. People far braver than us have bequeathed templates that spur us on to more florid appeals. I suggest something along the lines below:

The Indian Week in Justice
1. Ayodhya - Muslims' rights trampled on, but temple awarded.
2. Rafale Deal Review - Dismissed.
3. Sabarimalai Review Appeal - Referred to larger bench.
4. Money Bill Violation Appeal - Referred to larger bench (though tribunals did not need referral, ironically. The tribunals affected the judiciary)

So you thought "International Institute for Non-Aligned Studies" (remember Madi Sharma?) & "New Delhi Times, India's only International Newspaper" came out of no where & vanished? According to the EU Disinfo Lab, they're busy even when not funding EU MEP travel to Kashmir:

Uncovered: 265 coordinated fake local media outlets serving Indian interests - EU DisinfoLab

How could you know that your local news website, such as newyorkmorningtelegraph.com, thedublingazette.com, or timesofportugal.com serves Indian government interests? Here’s the story of how we uncovered this network designed to influence the EU and the UN by repeatedly criticising Pakistan.

Indian economic growth plummeted in relatively benign global/macro conditions. Prof Arun Kumar tells @DeshmaneAkshay of @HuffPostIndia that the unorganized sector, decimated by DeMon, GST & NBFC Crisis, eventually undermined the organized sector. The Professor believes the overall economy is actually in recession, hidden thanks to extrapolation of org. sector growth to unorganized sector.
