Something Sometimes Sudden Thoughts

Thoughts as they come, not rants!

Hello, my post(https://fosstodon.org/web/@mischievousloner/114262175944132485) educating folks about the meaning of swastika( A HINDU SYMBOL OF PEACE AND PROSPERITY ) and history and it's stark difference with NAZI symbol was removed. This is WRONG. I am just correcting the mistakes by folks. This is my responsibility as a Hindu. This removal must be because of dishonesty by moderators under influence , biased or lack of knowledge . Again, Swastika(HINDU) and Hakenkreuz(NAZI) are different.

I am a Hindu, I must speak out against this unjust calling of Hakenkreuz( hooked cross) as Swastika. THIS mistake was done by the brit translators, they just didn't want to call it hooked CROSS as literally called by the NAZIs. They liked CROSS. This is a deliberate mistake to protect the sacredness of CROSS. I should not be stopped from educating others about the truth and calling out the unjust portrayal of my sacred symbol. If you can't understand my feelings, here's a rude analogy - calling hooked cross a swastika is like calling all christian crosses sex toys as someone elsewhere saw a pornstar using a cross in and around her vagina. —-Sorry , it's rude.—- I have attached the image in the post. post-image-reuploaded Your cdn storage image (https://cdn.fosstodon.org/media_attachments/files/114/262/172/787/813/461/original/c3b6ba61c0bd7fa8.png) might get deleted.

I call out the Dishonesty by moderators under influence , biased or lack of knowledge of FOSSTODON.

This decision should/must be reversed to educate the fosstodon community and the broader internet and fediverse.– meaning of swastika( A HINDU SYMBOL OF PEACE AND PROSPERITY ) and history and it's stark difference with NAZI symbol Hakenkreuz( hooked cross). Thank you[maybe].

Debt is as old as our society itself, rooted in the resource scarce era of our origins.

Debt can be meaningful, and a valuable tool to your success or it can be a disaster, leading to your unrecoverable downfall.

We have grown accustomed to spend more than we earn or at times just below the marginal threshold, mostly on avoidable spends leading to unsustainable financial disasters. There was a time when folks in debt were loathed upon by the society and was a matter of great personal shame. This lead to folks being frugal and very careful in taking on debt on the first place.

This changed slightly with the realization of limitations of individual risk-taking ability and hunger for greater rewards for collective prosperity. From trade explorations to territorial conquests were backed by debt throughout history. Giving out debt became business, thoe risky, a very profitable one. This lead to a more prosperous society due to the increased trade. This also gave birth to wealthy and powerful banking families, often in the corridors of political power with much sway in the decision making of the rulers. Every business wants more customers and greater profits from their customers, so did the lenders.

But there was a clearly visible obstacle, the stigma of debt in the society. For this, the religious institutions to the literary institutions needed to be changed. This was done very systematically, via the command of the powerful. We don't need to discuss the subject too deeply as only the end result (folks conditioned to take on more and more debts and becoming spendthrifts) matters. This lead to our current market driven capitalization which promotes overspending, if not kept in check by individuals and society at large.

Reasons behind such behavioral change and some preventative measures for individuals

  • This post is NOT a criticism of Capitalism as the market dynamics act as a natural guardrails, preventing broader societal-economic disaster but still that leads to individual suffering and unrecoverable loss of wealth and health.
