When Shinde wanted to crush free speech…

Shinde: I will crush electronic media!
<Backlash!!!>
Shinde: Now what!
Advisor: Sir, email = electronic mail.
Shinde: Genius! I meant social media!

What Shinde actually wanted to say…
I want to crush media (all of it)!
I want to crush Modi!
I want to crush RSS/BJP!
But I know we will be crushed in 2014!

Shinde: I will crush you!
Kejriwal: Total paid media!
I&B Ministry: We will unplug you!
Sonia: I am unhappy!
Modi: Hehehe, aap ko ye inaam mila inse mujhe barso tak attack karne ke liye?

Free Speech musings…

· Online: Comment. Go to jail. Like. Go to jail. Share. Go to jail. Draw cartoon. Go to jail. Criticize. Go to jail. Joke. Go to jail. (OR Get blocked).
Offline: Murder. Be free. Rape. Be free. Scam. Be free. Threaten. Be free. Riot. Be free.

· India is a country where making fun of a criminal on Twitter or Facebook makes you a criminal.

· Instead of Free News: Paid News.
Instead of Free Speech: Paid Speech, meaning you pay a heavy price if you exercise your right of Free Speech in India.

· Free Railways WiFi will come with the message…
This bandwidth is brought to you by the Congress.
You aren’t allowed to criticize us.
Have a safe journey and avoid Section66A!

· If there was an offline version of Section 66A for politicians, all of them would have been in jail by now.

· Do you believe in Free Speech?
Hillary Clinton: No I believe in Expensive Speech.
(5 speeches per million dollars, to be exact!)

…in Cyberspace: That’s a hate crime!

…in Parliament: The BJP’s corrupt too!

…in front of Congress spokespersons: There is no corruption!

…in a nationwide agitation: You’re a criminal, off to Tihar!

…in a CAG report: The author has political ambitions!

…in court: The courts can’t decide policy!

…in front of the CBI: Err, isn’t CBI=Congress Bureau of Investigation?

…in mainstream media: Bias! Katju, where are you?
