Stop whining !

Lately, the popular Google owned networking site Orkut, has been getting a lot of attention in the Indian press. The reason ? Well, there exist some 'communities' on that site that are spreading hate against India. There are a number of communities that even have their names as 'I Hate India'. Well... anyone who regularly uses Orkut (like myself) will not be suprised by this. Infact, we regularly keep getting posts and messages from fellow Indians giving links of such communities so that we can 'report them as bogus' (Orkut provides that option). Now it seems some hot-blooded and extremely patriotic Indian has launched a complain with the Aurangabad high court asking them to do something about it. Maybe block those communities or ask Google to delete them or maybe even block Orkut from India. Hmmm... to that person, I'd like to ask... WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU ?!?!?! CAN'T YOU FIGHT A BATTLE WITHOUT RUNNING TO YOUR MOMMY TO HELP YOU OUT ?!?!

Geeezz ! Thats the fuckin problem with us Indians ! We'd rather avoid the problem than face it ! Asking the High Court just shows that we are losers and cannot handle a few punks online. IS THAT WHAT YOU WANT ? ALL INDIANS TO BE LABELED AS LOSERS AND CRY BABIES ?!?! Come on now ! Everyone knows that if there are 'I Hate India' communities then there also are 'I Hate Pakistan' comminities being run by Indians ! But we don't see the Pakistanis crying and running to their courts ! If you are so hurt by them, then report them as bogus or complain to Google personally or fight them from within ! YEA ! THATS RIGHT ! Lemme tell you how....

A few weeks ago, I got a link for a 'I Hate India' community and the sender asked me to report it as bogus. I clicked on the link and went on to the main page. Before reporting, I wanted to see what rubbish 'those' Pakistanis were writing against us. I checked out their various threads and you know what... I WAS FUCKIN SUPRISED ! It wasn't a 'I Hate India' community at all ! It had been hijacked by a number of Indian Orkut users and they were all flooding it with pro-India slogans ! Infact, if any anti-India posts were made there would be 10 pro-India posts for it ! It was amazing ! Only the name had 'hate' for India... everywhere else... it was totally pro-India ! I was so inspired ! Thats the way to do it ! THATS HOW YOU FIGHT BACK ! Our fellow citizens went to the root of the problem and destroyed its very core ! I didn't haveta report it as bogus ! There was no need !

So the next time someone sends you a link to a hate site, think about this method ! Defeat them at their turf and only then will you get the sweet sweet taste of victory ! If you keep crying foul and running to the courts then you are just making us weak ! And let me tell you this, if Orkut is blocked from India, then the biggest losers will be us Indians ! Indians are the third biggest group of users on that site ! Blocking it (or those communities) will not make them go away ! They will still exist and keep on making fun of us ! If you want them to shut down then fight them and destroy them ! Lets face our problems ! I would like to request Google and Orkut to let the communities be... we'll take care of them ourselves ! Just the collective farts of our billion citizens will be enough to blow them all away !! :-p
