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

Rajdeep Sardesai took a rather extreme stand of his own in a tweet, which he later deleted.
