Ranjit is showing a hegemonic egoistic male identity in this list with 24/7 internet access
1) any proof for this statement? in fact i could not access net the whole day. So going by the logic of anivar, prejudices and whims and fancies make him immaturely handle greenyouth. 2) hegemonic the kind of intolerance shown by anivar is indicative of hegemony 3) reg: ur friend and her child der r many who have to go out earn daily bread and butter even if her child is ill. so, the logic of access does not stand at all 4) cyber democracy it is the only space available for educated Dalitbahujan these days to engage with 'democracy' u can refer some reserach papers in this regard as well. kindly contact Satyanarayana, Dr tirumal or Tejaswini NIranjana 5) moderator and his positive way what makes u a moderator? wht's r criteria for moderation? why there is no transparency? positive way could be anything. ethnic clensing could be one positve way to ensure smooth functioning 6) is the access to "activism" and its power-centres part of ur list of vertical structure? So how do u look at ur position as moderator who preaches democracy without knowing what it is? 7) and what is this scale of modernism? is there any other scale available? how is it different? and which scale is applicable to greenyouth?
