Social Justice

5 जून 1974 को पटना के गाँधी मैदान से, ‘सिंहासन खाली करो कि जनता आती है’ के शंखनाद के साथ जेपी ने जिस आंदोलन की नींव रखी, और सत्ता की जड़ें हिला दीं, उसी आंदोलन से निकले उनके दो ‘सिपाही’ बिहार को कहाँ लेकर गए यह ‘राजनीति शास्त्र’ की किताबों में कहीं दर्ज नहीं है। कैसे एक ने अपने कार्यकाल में अपहरण, फिरौती, रंगदारी और सुपारी किलिंग की इंडस्ट्री जमा दी, प्रतिभा का पलायन करवा दिया और जाति की राजनीति के सहारे जम गए, तो दूसरे ने ‘सुशासन बाबू’ बनने की आड़ में ‘शराब के ठेकों’ के सहारे कुर्सी हथिया ली।

We face a dilemma these days. We want to be honest about our history and the racism and oppression that Americans have both inflicted and endured. But we want to be proud of our country, too. In The Nation That Never Was, Roosevelt shows how we can do both those things by realizing we’re not the country we thought we were. Reconstruction, Roosevelt argues, was not a fulfillment of the ideals of the Founding but rather a repudiation: we modern Americans are not the heirs of the Founders but of the people who overthrew and destroyed that political order.

The modern woke-industrial complex divides us as a people. By mixing morality with consumerism, corporate elites prey on our innermost insecurities about who we really are. They sell us cheap social causes and skin-deep identities to satisfy our hunger for a cause and our search for meaning, at a moment when we lack both. Vivek Ramaswamy is a traitor to his class. He’s founded multibillion-dollar enterprises, led a biotech company as CEO, trained as a scientist at Harvard and a lawyer at Yale, and grew up the child of immigrants in a small town in Ohio.

When tough-on-crime laws passed 30 years ago during an era of drug-fueled violence, they were supported across the political spectrum. The subsequent "war on drugs" sent non-violent offenders to prison for decades and, in some cases, life. As a result, the nation's prison and jail population today is 2.3 million, more than quadruple the number that were incarcerated in 1980. One in 100 adults is behind bars in America.
