"Where Are We Heading To?"


"Where Are We Heading To?"



"You are too sensitive." "You are very insensitive." "You are this, you are that." Centuries have changed, calendars have been flipped, yet the age-old blame game persists. Once, conflicts were fought and settled with swords and spears, but now a new breed of warriors reigns supreme: the "Internet Warriors." In this vast digital realm initially designed to aid humanity, a darker truth emerges. There's a mounting concern over the erosion of empathy and sensitivity.

As our online presence expands, so does our capacity for callousness and disregard for the emotions and needs of others. In this blog, we'll plunge into the depths of our digital interactions, examining how they mold our attitudes and behaviors. More importantly, we'll dissect the necessity of nurturing empathy and understanding in this virtual landscape.


Open anyone's reel today and you will find tones of negative and positive, whoops sorry not so positive comments. Either we are becoming too sensitive or inconsiderate and insensitive. In the veil of "it's funny come on! Don't take it seriously" "You are a noob can't take a dark sarcasm dude!" we often times try to justify our illogical and most heart wrenching words. I'm not advocating for a humorless existence and "Always be serious like your math or physics professor!", after all, I too engage in playful banter on various posts. However, there's a fine line between lighthearted humor and outright insensitivity.


This distinction becomes all the more crucial as young girls and boys absorb these short video clips and form judgments about individuals' characters. I don't know maybe some people feel that they are too cool for all these stuff and they can comment whatever they wish to, but the impact of their words can be profound.


Anonymity online allows people to express themselves freely without fear of consequences, leading to both open discussions and negative behaviors like cyberbullying and hate speech. Without accountability, individuals may say things online they wouldn't in person, harming both mental well-being and online discourse. Misinformation and distrust can also spread when people hide behind false identities. While anonymity enables free expression, it can have serious consequences for online interactions and mental health.


And oh by the way guys have you observed the more you comment on someone's post, the more illogical, provocative, and downright absurd their content becomes? It's all for the clout! because it's on the controversial spectrum so for and people will definitely engage with it by sharing it, commenting on it. And what do we, the audience, get out of it? A fleeting hit of dopamine, while they cry and enjoy with that money in Dubai and Bali?.  In this digital age, it seems the ones pushing the boundaries with controversial content are the ones coming out on top, leaving us questioning who the true "cool" and "smart" ones really are.
And some of us fight for them in the comment sections like the "internet warriors". Of course some accounts can be fake or just a PR game instigating fights between two unknown people on the internet. Content creators may prioritize shock value over accuracy, perpetuating a cycle of negativity online. Efforts to address this include promoting digital literacy and fostering empathy online.


Please don't let some content creators fool you, choose your content creators wisely *winks*.
And let's not forget how we are justifying a stand against misogyny while supporting misandry!!!.


In short, the internet has good and bad sides. It helps us connect, but sometimes it causes arguments. People can be mean online, but we should try to be kind. The rise of "Internet Warriors" and the allure of controversial content underscore the need for greater empathy and understanding in our virtual interactions. As we navigate this ever-evolving realm, let us not forget the profound impact of our words and actions on others. Before we say something online, we should think about how it might hurt someone's feelings. By being friendly on the internet, we can make it a happier place. Let's remember to treat others the way we want to be treated, both online and offline.


Just think before you engage with such contents and be kind to each other! *winks again*

A Suitable Boy — 1951 to 2026: Has Anything Really Changed?

I know I am late to the party, but recently I finished watching Mira Nair’s version of A Suitable Boy by Vikram Seth, published in 1993. After watching it, I realized how nothing at the core has truly changed in so-called modern Indian society. You can draw direct parallels straight from the 1950s—when the story is set—all the way to today. Look at Lata Mehra. She’s a promising graduate in a freshly free, post-Partition India. She’s strong-headed, full of questions, but has this soft, reminiscing elegance to her. She is adamant that she will find the perfect boy for herself, but she also asks the one question women still ask today: How can you ever be sure who is actually perfect for you? Then comes her worrisome mother, adamant on finding her a suitable boy. Decades later, Indian parents still do the exact same thing. Graduation is done, so let’s immediately go find a good rishta for you. Lata’s situation honestly resembles the modern dating world so much. She finds herself confused...
