The quest for black and white - the twitter extremes
Shades of gray (I am not referring to the 50 shades variety) are a fact of life. Nothing is black and white. Why, then do we keep, searching for a perfect solution, a definitive yes or no, an extreme stance to take. As I keep trying to decide on my own definitive stand, it is mind-boggling to see the quick changes in the twitter trends. Someone somewhere is spending a lot of money and using a lot of influence to get the twitter trends to shift tone. #NehruBetrayedIndia was trending last night (January 24, 2016) when I last checked my twitter feed. As I check it now, this morning, #NehruBuiltModernIndia is trending. Nehru died 50yrs back. Sanghis criticising him now on twitter were not even born then. This is due to sick mindset. #NehruBuiltModernIndia — Vinod Mehta (@DrunkVinodMehta) January 25, 2016 He built India.
