Kudos to
@Geet_reports for a sharp, necessary line of questioning.
When asked why the 'Cockroach Janta Party' lacks female representation or followers, the spokesperson started with a valid point on safety: the brutal online abuse and trolling that deters women from public roles.
But then came the casual, disappointing pivot to lazy stereotyping.
To claim that women arenтАЩt engaged in politics because "media and films have conditioned them to care only about makeup and shopping" is not just reductive, it is an insult to the very movement you claim to lead.
LetтАЩs look at the facts: the NEET aspirants fighting for justice on the streets right now include thousands of fierce, articulate women.
They are fighting for their futures, enduring police crackdowns, and leading this struggle with absolute seriousness.
How dare you minimise their grit, intelligence, and political agency by reducing their entire gender to a patriarchal caricature of consumerism? You are actively erasing the labor of the very women standing on your frontlines.
How do you build an inclusive political movement while simultaneously generalising half the country's population as apolitical consumers?
If your platform wants to represent the people, it needs to treat women as political citizens, not products of cinematic conditioning.
Looking forward to seeing how they plan to dismantle these internal biases to actually create safe, representative spaces.
