Collective Humanism?

I believe we still are a part of the human sect as such which was shocked to see what happened to a Daniel pearl or that unidentified Indonesian or some soldier whose beheading was pictured. But we still are blind, deaf and indifferent to the sufferings of anonymous people. Again I am no supporter to anyone than just humanism. Revolutions are never humanitarian. And only some of them managed to achieve the ends toward humanism. A revolution is dying. Regrets even if there, doesn’t matter any more. All that matters is this. We could only get to the levels of beggars who show off their travails to get a coin or two. These are far worse than them. As said,”peace is an accident. War is in blood”. It seems like these people never met an accident.

innocuous morality....

Elections are a pander to the weak and the meek who strongly vote. For some it is air time presence in unscrupulous debates in insipid news channels. Elections are real business for politicians. And quite a handful of others who still think individuals are still important in a democracy. The fact is Nehruvian socialism practices has by far left this country to be more socialistic than democratic .That the aam aadmi, reservations kinds still constitute important of the electoral issues highlight this. . And the worst effect of that is having made an autocratic family sit at the country’s’ helm. Economy is just a byproduct of the survival of the politicians. Business powerhouses have learned to work around the politicians. And every time both the clans never fail to ask the responsible Indian upon the faces to fancy them. India shining! Tata’s know to make a 1 lakh car and more than that know how not to allow to make electric cars. Ambani’s know how to create companies, merge them, demerge them, Financial engineer them and every time come out with a stupendous new story about India’s exaltation in the global world. They are doing it , no doubt about that. Everyone had made India proud as it seems. But we know the moral digs they have been through for all these. And there is no one stopping them. Everyone accepts Politicians come to people expecting a scapegoat of them for every five years. But what I generally see these days are different kinds but only that they also come to the common man again expecting a scapegoat of them. These are the campaigners I see day in and day out in cities urging people to exercise their right to vote. One can see them educating them by all means, about the importance of voting etc. The motive of their campaign is “If you don’t vote this country won’t change”. Agreed accepted. Appo ithanai naal vote potavanellam kaena payala? Pulling out any statistic shows that voting turnouts have peaked as far as 80 % and yes of course they have been to very lows too. But in all for a highly geographically, culturally fragmented, factual country like us an average efficiency of 50-60% is a sustainable number. But we need to improve by leaps. That must be done by improving the machineries than harping on the individual every time. And to have survived for 60 years through the ordeals of a shambles left by the British is a daunting task. That for you and me is the real success of our democracy. And that has happened by people voting, voting, and voting. So where was the lax? Obviously we always didn’t vote for the right. So I hate a placard with Voting is your right/Duty. We should hold more placards of Vote for the right and that is your duty. And do we have it in us to say who is right? Placards and debates should try to find that too than excessively stressing on just an issue. We lose comprehensiveness in there. Asking the people to go and vote is just asking them to find the answers out of a MCQ of rowdies, scrupulous idiots. That’s what such campaign will maximum achieve. Instead we should make them ask questions. Also the machineries in India aren’t as effective as such to entirely blame the common man for the failures of elections. I have personal experiences of how ineffective the election commission is. They work more on ad hoc basis than on a permanent basis. And they definitely shoulder the major part of the blame for poor voter turnouts. So I know Voting is my duty and perform it. But I am not able to find the right one to vote. Can we sit over a debate, discuss and find one. So I can perform my duty diligently. The media is a dog.
