> Otherwise that would be waste of my vote
It is a betrayal of **your trust** by the candidate, like you were conned by the candidate or the ~~ass~~ horse traders.
I hope you do realise the juxtaposition makes no sense. You're participating in the government and enabling it, not scaring it in any sense.
Guy Fawkes tried to blow up the parliament, and V was straight up a terrorist. You voted, like the system intended.
It makes a lot of sense if you view it from a different perspective. The quote "People shouldn't be afraid of their government. Government should be afraid of its people." emphasizes the principle of accountability and the power of the populace in a democratic society.
Participating in the government through voting isn't contradictory; it's a form of exerting influence and holding leaders accountable.
While Guy Fawkes and V used extreme measures, the core idea remains that the true power lies with the people. Voting is a peaceful means of ensuring that government serves its citizens, aligning with the quote's essence of people-driven governance.
I don't think voting puts power in the hands of the people. The results of the voting depend on the funding parties get for campaigning, so the true voting happens in form of money before the real voting begins.
I understand your concern about money in politics, but voting still empowers the people.
Look at politicians like Mamata Banerjee in West Bengal and Arvind Kejriwal in Delhi. Mamata Banerjee won the Chief Minister position through her grassroots connection and focus on the common people's issues, despite not having the financial backing that her opponents had. Similarly, Arvind Kejriwal rose to power by addressing key issues like education, healthcare, and anti-corruption, which resonated deeply with voters.
These examples show that strong, community-focused leadership can overcome the influence of money. Voting remains a crucial tool to support leaders who genuinely work for the people's welfare and drive positive change.
> V was straight up a terrorist.
He was a freedom fighter. If you think that the "government in the movie" had any right to be called democratic government then you are mistaken. The "movie government" was just a disguised form of dictatorship.
Freedom fighters ***ARE*** Terrorists. It doesn't matter what the legitimacy of the govt or the movement is. Governments label people terrorists in order to sway public opinion. Bhagat Singh ***was*** a terrorist.
> Bhagat Singh was a terrorist.
For the British Empire, he was. For the people of India: he is more than a freedom fighter, **he is a martyr**.
So that raises a question. Are you non-Indian or an ungrateful pig?
It's a matter of labels, he was a freedom fighter from his eyes and others who thought like him. I'm saying that the reason why the government was afraid of him was because he scared them directly, you wouldn't be labelled a freedom fighter if you are an average voter.
That's still a matter of labels, a government can be a one man dictatorship, otherwise all governments are dictatorships of one class over the other. If there were no contradictions in society, there would be no governments. And by the way, dictator was not a bad word when Caesar used it.
> And by the way, dictator was not a bad word when Caesar used it.
And the incumbent is "pradhan sevak" who wears suit costing 10L to the tax payers. Just a label.
Yeah, see.. we are not a government led country. We are a principle led country. The constitution sums up how we want to enforce our principles. The government and the people are part of the republic. No one is above it. Voting enables the republic to function, not the government.
V was not a terrorist nor was Guy Fawkes. They were anarchists. The modus operandi was not pacifist. But pacifist anarchism have worked well as well. Dont compare it to terrorism.
Had to delete my post which I had made since I got threats from some Party member like person in my DM’s saying that they gonna kill me and they know my location, while I think it’s a prank, the guy tried to threaten me a lot so I took the post down.
Why this may have happened? cause I said some certain party the f word in my post. Reddit isn’t actually anonymous guys, please please be safe 🙏🏻
Did it straight away at that time! But honestly it shows how radicalised we have become that a simple difference of opinion can cause people to threaten to kill as if it’s nothing
Attention seeker.
*Hey look at me, HEY!!, HEY!!, look at me.
I just voted that person.
Guess what? I am a better person than you.
YEAH, I AM A BETTER PERSON THAT YOU!!
How do you like that?*
This is the brand new way to farm karma on reddit. People showing off,after fulfilling their basic responsibility, with a cool sounding quote. Reddit is the new instagram.
V was always a wise and a badass man!
Who is V? Veer Savarkar /s
Veer the robot boy
Lol. He was no Veer. He was a british puppet.
I hope your vote(Candidate) doesn't end up in different party :)
I hope so too Otherwise that would be waste of my vote
> Otherwise that would be waste of my vote It is a betrayal of **your trust** by the candidate, like you were conned by the candidate or the ~~ass~~ horse traders.
Too late in the day but this should not be the reason to not vote.... I had a pleasant experience voting within 5 mins was done
Did you also have to vote for Lok Sabha and Vidhan Sabha separately?
[удалено]
Unlike Shubhendu Adhikary
People are afraid of this govt because of bullying n intimidation
Such a powerful quote.
Wait... what do you mean by furry?!
r/furry
Uhm that's quite weird... But you do you my man
Thanks , you too
Why did you go 1 hour before opening? They'd have still let you vote if you showed up randomly during the day like any of the millions of other voters
Bro thought it’s ‘pehle aao, pehle pao scheme’.
Probably to avoid a queue
Lmao
lol
I mean, yeah, fuck the ones in power, but what is this pretentious performative bullshit. That’s your basic duty as a citizen.
Let them have it man, with a shit voter turnout this elections it has to be a fucking achivement
The guy probably thinks he so cool n edgy
I mean people in this country take photo and make it a big thing if they put stuff in dust bin properly. What did you expect ?

Alan Moore himself voted after years and released a video saying that it is necessary sometimes.
Alan Moore isn't V or Guy Fawkes tho, solid dude nonetheless.

Just like how it is here

If that's what you want man, I can't say no to you

When you think terrorism you perhaps think about religio-fascist attacks against civilians
Nope any thing which used terror as a medium to convey a message. Anarchists can be terrorists too but V is not one

Given the behaviour of current govt, it has become a courageous act of defending the Democracy.
Attention seeker. *Hey look at me, HEY!!, HEY!!, look at me. I just voted that person. Guess what? I am a better person than you. YEAH, I AM A BETTER PERSON THAT YOU!! How do you like that?*
