Contrary to what is claimed in the header and in the dribble under it, Goa won and for a very good reason. The "Festival of Filth" got canned.
The people who lost are the anti-Hindu muckrakers pretending to be scholars, and their local Leftwing handmaidens who got caught trying to sneak one in. It was supposed to be a group crap session on Hindus but they got caught and hence all this whining. RSS! Hindutva fascists! Modi! This, that, the usual Leftwing piss. Note the pulling of rank - Harvard! As if anyone today gives a sh!t. The old Harvard with its distinguished roster of classical scholars is long dead. It is the Woke Harvard now, populated by Marxist/progressive gits and BLM grifters. Imagine the howls of protest from the same crew if the subjects were reversed - if they had brought in people to speak on the historical brutality Hindus were subjected to by the Portuguese Christians (all of which a matter of historical record). They would have gone postal on social media, Herald would have come out with a supplement. You can unload your bowels on Hindus without consequences.In fact, it has been a profitable metier and a path to career advancement. Until now, that is. The new Hindu has finally decided she has had enough. Predictably, 'House Negro' and useful idiot Mauzo (the "good bamon") is quoted. The impression conveyed that Yengde is some kind of intellectual giant is risible. In truth, the fella is a cretin, his bile reserved especially for bamons. Here is an introduction to Mr. Yeng-effing-de: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wxf39NVOv6g Why this crew would want to inflame social tension under the cover of "ideas" I don't know and I don't care. True scholarly exchange of ideas this was never going to be given the abysmal intellectual quality of the speakers. They scraped the bottom of their Leftwing excrement barrel and came up with this smelly pile. What I know is, all middle-of-the-road Goan Hindus are going to oppose this tooth and nail. You can have your hatefest with your own coin. Just not with taxpayer money. PS: Goanet and Herald, with their predominantly Catholic audience already primed against RSS/Hindutva/BJP is the perfect target for this agitprop. Sometimes I wonder why I even bother. Any pushback such as mine is not going to convince anyone who is already convinced that the other side is evil. I write here because I want to place the counter view on record. r - Goan nationalist & nativist, Hindu, bamon, Hindutvavadi, pro-patriarchy dude
