I am not disagreeing that money is very important in India, but there is a limit to that. I don’t think many of us actually want to live in a country where money matters so much that, if you don’t have it, people become cruel and completely unemphatic toward you. Just look around honestly - does it really feel motivating to live in a society where wealthy people are treated like some kind of god-like creatures?

And then this creator - a famous lookmaxxing creator and all that nonsense, starts citing Brij Bhushan as an example of why money is everything. Like, man, just stfu. You degenerate fool, you absolute buffoon. Do you even realize what that man has been accused of and associated with?

A meaningful society cannot be built only on excess money, status, symbols, and blind materialism. Human beings should be defined by far more than bank balances by curiosity, kindness, creativity, discipline, experiences, and culture. And Hobbies like traveling, reading, cooking, fishing, building relationships, learning new skills, understanding the world - these are the things that make life human.

If the only thing society respects is money, then eventually people will sacrifice morality, empathy, and even dignity just to acquire it. And that is not progress. That is decay disguised as success.

I am probably the last person who would complain about exchange rates, because I understand there are countless factors involved. No country can absolutely control currency value, and there is no magical formula that determines the correct exchange rate.

Especially in countries with capital controls or heavy central bank intervention, it becomes even harder to say why a particular exchange value exists. And people also forget that countries like Japan and South Korea have had relatively weak currencies against the USD for long periods, yet they are still highly developed economies. So a weaker exchange rate alone does not automatically mean a weak country. In many cases, it more or less cancels out through wages, exports, purchasing power, and domestic pricing.

But at the same time, when a country's currency starts fluctuating too aggressively or unpredictably, it does affect investor confidence. Stability matters for foreign investment.

And honestly, a 0.5% move in a currency within a day is not something people should ignore. Anyone who has traded forex knows that currency markets usually operate on very small movements. That's why leverage can go up to 100x because volatility is generally low. But when I compare the rupee's volatility with many other peer economies, it feels high during times like these. Even with conflicts escalating in the Middle East and global tensions rising, many major currencies still remain relatively stable compared to ours.

So my only question is, Modi ji... why? 🥺

People here are saying that this is his personal life and that it should not be compared with his political career at all. To an extent, I agree. At the end of the day, everyone has a private life. But when someone becomes a public and political figure, people will naturally judge their decisions, values, and conduct. Public figures influence society whether they want to or not.

Before being a politician, he is also an actor and a celebrity. I do not know under what circumstances he left his wife and children, so I am not going to make absolute claims about him personally. But people will question it, because for many people, family decisions reflect character traits too. And before someone says, “It’s still his personal matter,” let me point out the hypocrisy that often exists in public discourse.

Do you remember the BJP MLA incident where his daughter dated a Pakistani man and openly supported Palestine? At that time, people heavily mocked and criticized the MLA. Nobody was saying, “It’s his daughter’s personal life, don’t involve him.” But when it comes to Vijay, suddenly the argument becomes “separate personal life from public life.”

What exactly was that MLA supposed to do — slap his daughter, lock her up, or force her to follow his ideology? Children are not robots. Once they grow up, they make their own choices. Parents can advise, guide, or disagree, but they cannot completely control another human being.

And this selective outrage is not limited to politics. There was also that famous incident where a CEO was seen hugging an employee. The internet outrage became so extreme that both of them lost their jobs, and reportedly one of them struggled to find work afterward. Where did all the “personal life” principles go at that time?

I’m not saying everyone behaves this way, but a significant portion of society is extremely cognitively rigid and inconsistent. People often apply moral standards selectively depending on whether they like or dislike the person involved.
