You already said that you don't even care about Abhinandan or his Mig.
...
It is sad that the supposed 'enemy' cared about Abhinandan more than some Indians. Wonder what Abhinandan must be feeling right now. To have to defend India flying in a 'tin can Mig-21'. When he was shot down behind enemy lines. His nation didn't try to come and get him. The Indian politicians, media, and the Jai Hinds paid little attention to him. They were too busy fabricating stories of an Indian victory. That was until Pakistan announced that they've got him. Then, years after all that, he is still regarded as 'disposable'.
...
I feel obliged to point out that Indian media and posters on various websites
were outright denying Abihinandan's existence even
AFTER Pakistan posted his interview video.
As though that wasn't despicable enough, the same outlets and posters
instantly flipped 180 degrees into celebrating the moment he was released, calling it a diplomatic victory over Pakistan.
I remember this vividly because observing the Balakot incident was how I lost all respect for India as a country. It was complete shitshow where an Indian spokesperson would publicly agree to de-escalate tensions (I recall she was standing next to a very sweaty Pompeo) and under
ONE HOUR LATER their navy threatens to start a blockade.
Honest question to Indian posters here: how do you stomach this blatant hypocrisy coming from your government and even play along with it?
Can't you see how terrible it is for your society to be this delusional? Is fleeting pride really worth ruining your society for 2-3 generations?
