Fanboys

Stranger and stranger events keep happening - a racist, misogynist person convicted of 34 criminal cases and many more, a person responsible for insurrection has been elected back as the president of richest and strongest nation in the world. And we lamented our election!

I was reading a post on Twitter about how the people who are fans of such and such a political party are idiots.

I would change it a little bit. People who are fans of any politician or a political party, anywhere in the world are not very smart individuals. Easily swayed, unwilling to employ their gray cells and followers of herd. 

And unwilling to see the flaws (flaws there in plenty) in their idol. But that is what a fan is. A fan is devoted to his 'God' in every possible way and sees him as a God on earth. 

But in good old days there were fans of movie stars and sportsmen only. Not fans of politicians. And the people they idolized could not do much harm. And the future of entire country and of generations to come did not rely on them. 

And they did not employ digital media to convince people of outlandish theories to demonize their opponents. 

But I and you can't to do much to save the situation. We can just pray to God that ' Ye sab dekhane se mujhe bacha le. Utha le re utha le'
