At least not as much as the fact that his views are current currency amongst a number of Dalit ideologues who perhaps have not been bought and who are actually sincere in expressing their angst.

I think we commit a blunder when we ignore or are indifferent to the argumenations of the likes of Kancha. This blind-side is then used as “silence of the guilty” or “silence of the traitors to the cause”.

To call a chamcha a traitor is to dignify the chamcha. Before you can say “traitor!” the butt-licker is feigning injured innocence and protesting your “assault” on “liberal values”. He has become a hero in his own eyes because somebody called him a traitor. I suggest you praise his loyalty instead. Loyalty to the Congress party and his abiding commitment to taste nothing but only the government’s butt.

Voices my sentiments on this issue

Shortly, I feel that unless Kancha says he’s forsaken his Kuruma traditions, he’s a Hindu.

We should not get distracted by his vain and propagandistic anti-Hinduism rhetoric. He tries hard to get folks he sees as “Brahmins” to react negatively to his “theories”.

This allows him to identify Hinduism with the “Brahmin” and other so called “upper” Castes and none other than these unless we have some figures identifying themselves as of the Castes of the Shudra Varna who will oppose him. There are plenty of such Hindus I’m sure.

On the other hand and with regards to the Vande Mataram issue on IBN (Barkha Dutt), did no one notice the utter lack of support for the Hindu side? There was nobody who spoke for the Hindus and their national heritage in the body of Vande Mataram.

I do not know who came up with the bull shit you talked about, but like Kancha Iliyah, rhetoricians are on a roll now-a-days. Just because you can make an opinion does not make that opinion valuable, the opinion needed to be grounded logic or history. Anything that happened in recent Indian history is not a conspiracy designed by Marxists/Secularists/Royalists/Islamists.

Well Buddhism has become all watered down into something, lets call it “pop buddhism” that Hollywood celebrities support. These people would be surprised to realize that at the beginning Buddhism was a severely austere religion, and that its association with compassion and passivity came much later in its development–
