@carameluz

You think you are supporting AR's ideas using gaybashing lingo, but you aren't really, you know.

I am gay male or hetero female or asexual (or at least some of my best friends are) , and I am pro-AR, and I/my gay male/hetero female friends find her gorgeous too, and AR is pro-gay (and pro-hetero, and pro-asexual, and pro-bi etc etc)

so get sorted out, Charlie!

[Charlie: my gen. term of address to presumed male, without the slightly patronising overtones of 'George' etc.]

i remember she wrote : the battle has to begin here in america. the only institution more powerful than the u.s. government is american civil society. the rest of us are subject of slave nations. we are by no means powerless, but you have the power of proximity. you have access to the imperial palace and the emperor's chambers. empire's conquests are being carried out in your name.

[Roch21173]

where do you get these fantastic ideas ? Can you substantiate any of them ?

she is another dumbass writer out to impress the whites. Her original name is margaret roy she changed it as it was not indian enough to be recognized by the white masters in publishing and award business. She belongs to the genre of indian english writers who have no roots or clue about india or its people. And she thrives on imposing the usual leftist and imperial stereotypes about india.
