End of the past?

@Jolie

As far as I know you were one of the original people who kept having a moan about ‘foreigners’. Like it or not, and the fear and disdain of ‘foreigners’ itself is a definition of xenophobia. Go look up in the dictionary. Stop this ‘equal representation’ twist, you have repeatedly used the word glorify, glamouristion, local, natives, foreigners in all your posts. Who in present day Punjab gets counted as ‘native’ and who is still an evil ‘foreigner’ - given the rich and diverse ethnic make up of Punjab’s population due to foreign invaders becoming settlers? This is not Sindh we are talking about where such words can get you the votes. This is precisely one the major reasons I found your nonstop pimping of the word ‘foreigners’ so pathetically ignorant. When you continuously chuck in such stupid words while pretending to build an an argument for objective and balances history, except not be taken seriously.

What I really don’t stand about your posts is sheer hypocrisy - one hand you kept shedding river of tears about foreigner invaders being expansionist, power hungry, and opportunists and violent invaders but on the other, you wanted Punjabis to hero worship Ranjit Sing? Why? Was he not an opportunist invader? Did he not ravage Punjab province? Did he not repeatedly attack Punjab when it was at its weakest - was that not violent opportunism in pursuit of power and land? Why should Punjabis consider Ranjit Singh a hero, instead of Sir Ganga Ram? If anyone who was actually promoting war, glory and victory romantic BS was you, and it’s funny considering you were saying how glorification of wars and victory needs to be scrapped out of textbooks, but at the same time, wanted to ‘glorify’ and glamourise Ranjit Singh because of his ethnicity?

Unlike you I strongly and resolutely disagree with the idea of hero worshipping historic personalities on the basis of religion and race, and that too in the face of learning History as a subject. You continuously proposed hero worshipping or herofying of personalities. Show me one post where I have used any of such pathetic words to say yes it is okay to hero worship Ghaznavi or likes? Of course, I admit that 800 years of Muslim conquests is too big of a period to be ignored and generalised with any broad brush conclusions - that goes for both ways.

Again twisting of words. keep on with this rant and piss off as usual.

Just using terms foreign invaders doesn’t mean that I supported local atrocities against the local. Its you who kept on arguing about Alexendra and said why should we teach about Porus who was defeated. hypocrisy, twisting and pissing ends at you.

Didn’t I said that we should give coverage to contribution of Hindus, Parsis and Qadyanis. Who from Parsis and Qadyanis were rulers? Start using your mind which is fully under control of biases. While you call others biased,you are yourselves full of all biases as well besides being highly judgmental.

Talking of Punjab don’t try to act smart, everyone knows how biradri voting sells there like other parts of the country. Everyone is occupied with some biases and you, me, no one can deny that.
