According to the tenets of intersectional anti-casteism, who is the oppressor and who is the oppressed here? Is the Bahujan cop the oppressor because ACAB, or is the Brahmin driver not oppressed because Brahminism?

What jobs do you all work at? I am feeling lost since I do not want to be exploited, nor do I want to be involved in something exploitative but I do not have too many options.
I will be graduating in the beginning of next year. I am in Germany doing my masters in physics but academia is toxic now and follows the "market". I have grown aversive of it. Anyway, I don't want to live here and I want to come back to India. But I don't know what I will do once I am back. Firstly, speaking from my part-time experience at an institution here, I don't think I can do a stressful desk job. I don't want to be exploited and at the same time I don't to exploit someone else. I am mentioning this because some people suggested me to join JEE-NEET coaching centres since, according to them, they pay a lot to the teacher. My problem is, they charge a lot from the students and I don't want to be part of it. I think I can teach but I don't have the means to start something by myself yet where I can teach the students in need at a considerable cheaper price. I think about joining politics as an independent candidate but I don't have the money for it. Maybe I'll start by contesting for Sarpanch's post in my village.
Once my father retires in a couple of years, I will be responsible for the house's finances and I do want to take care of my parents. He is bearing the cost of the loan we took when I came here. I, for sure, want to pay at least that for him as soon as possible.
I haven't been able to find a partner for myself because of conflicting political ideologies with the girls I went on dates with. Now, even though I will not let my parents force me into an arranged marriage, it surely is irritating when they keep mentioning it and when I oppose them, they start being dramatic, throwing Bollywood style dialogues at me. So, this adds to the mental pressure I am feeling.
Now, with all these things, and other family issues combined, my first goal is to find a way to earn. But what can I do? I don't what ethical job, where I will not have to sacrifice my ideals, I can do.
I thought of discussing it with you all. Any opinions on other matters mentioned here are also welcome.
I might not have framed it all in a coherent way. If it feels like I am jumping from one thing to the other, I ask for apologies. I am perpetually in a panic mode these days.

Lets talk about something I cannot get out of my head.
Not the best timing given recent events. I hate talking about this. I created r/menrightsindia, and r/onexindia. idk I was 15 okay. Do you remember being 15? During the lockdown when you have to look at a screen for 10 hrs a day? when "crazed feminazi rekt" videos were at their peak? I do.
This really fucks with your brain, I was an angry teenager. At least when online. I would say I have escaped the manosphere, even after going down its deepest rabbit holes. I shut down r/menrightsindia and handed over r/onexindia and just left. Unsubscribing from all political/gender war subreddits.
You become a noticeably nicer person once every post on your feed doesn't make you angry in some way. I wasn't ignorant, I kept up, talked to friends, and slowly stopped caring or being angry about the issues I once so deeply cared about. Nothing kicks the MRA out of you like a female friend asking you to take a different road when walking with her because 'vahan pe ladke chedhte hai'. That and some perspective-enhancing puff-puff pass.
But there is something that I cannot get out of my head, no matter what. The one thing I picked up from the manosphere that I cannot let go of. The fact that India does not have gender-neutral rape laws.
Men (and until very recently trans women), cannot be raped. A perpetrator can only be charged with other, weaker laws, with a max 7 years of punishment.
But the law itself doesn't make me as angry as the fact that, it was about to be fixed, it was about to be made gender-neutral, but Indian feminist groups fought against it. They fought to specifically exclude men.
You can read more here.
I understand their points, and I agree. Rape is a very gendered crime, it's about power. A gender-neutral law would have led to men filing counter rape cases when accused. But this change was fundamentally unjust.
When a crime is committed against you, it affects you directly, it's personal. You should have the right to justice, regardless of what wider societal consequences providing you justice has. You absolutely cannot ignore suffering or male victims, deny them justice and sweep them under the rug because of "the greater good". It's absurd to think this is justice. I am willing to die on this hill.
I get that not all feminists would support this, but where are they? Where were they when this change was being made? This is the last string that keeps trying to pull me to the manosphere. If feminism is a movement for women, who will fix this? If it's a movement for equality, what explains this?
This isn't an anti-feminist gotcha in disguise. I am really trying to see through here, but cannot.

Sangh parivar were the biggest bootlickers of British
RSS, Hindu Mahasabha were the biggest bootlickers of British along with the Muslim League. Savarkar told Hindus to join British Army that would oppose the Azad Hind Fauj of Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose. Shyama Prasad Mukherji of Hindu Mahasabha told the Governor of Bengal that he can help to suppress the Quit India Movement. Infact this entire Sangh Parivar back then opposed the Quit India Movement. Shyama Prasad Mukherji in his diary also called Netaji "anti-national". RSS was also against the tricolor national flag and after 52 years hoisted it in 2002. They were also against the national anthem. They didnt do anything when Bhagat Singh was jailed, when civil disobedience movement took place, when Simon Go Back movement took place, when Quit India movement took place, when Netaji's INA prisoners were facing trials at Red fort, when Naval mutiny took place. These people were only against Mahatma Gandhi, Congress and to a great extent Muslims and Christians (which is also debatable because Savarkar himself supported Jinnah's 2 nation theory and also formed coalition government with Muslim League in Sindh, NWFP and Bengal). Infact Sardar Vallabhai Patel after death of Mahatma Gandhi banned RSS for a year. When British were arresting Congress leaders, they didnt arrest any RSS, Mahasabha leaders and also praised Savarkar as an ally. These people historically havent achieved anything except for further instigating riots, violence and deaths of Hindus, Muslims but still think they are the people who get to decide who is a "true nationalist" and a "true Hindu", as if these terms mean anything.

Representing India as an NRI
I recently had an interesting conversation with one of my friends regarding this. Foreigners tend to stereotype Indians quite a bit and my friend basically said that they don't say anything bad about India in front of others because they might use this information to stereotype other Indians.
Now, as much as I understand what they mean, I feel like it is quite disingenuous to completely avoid the social issues which plague India, but obviously I don't want others to stereotype Indians and basicallydiscriminatei/isolate us in these foreign countries.
I'm not sure what would be the right thing here. I would like to ask for other opinions. What do you think?

Hollywood is a propaganda machine
Every US industry is there to serve their colonial projects. It is so subtle that if you are not aware of the geopolitics, you will miss it or believe it completely. In some recent series, I saw something that proved the USA is manufacturing consent. For example, in Lioness and The Pitt, they made entire episodes on fentanyl where they talk about how China and Mexico are funneling it into the USA to destabilize the region, so the US has to send their army into China and Mexico to stop it.
It is not just Hollywood. In anime, K drama, Bollywood, every Western ally produces anti communist agenda.

Why don’t we force Indian Government into pressurising Netanyahu to agree to a ceasefire in Gaza?
India may not be a global superpower but it is a force. The current government has played it safe for far too long - we are on no one’s side they say but by staying silent on the atrocities being committed in Gaza, we are slowly losing our own respect.
The people of Gaza are trapped in a cage by the Israelis. The area is divided into two sections - one red (danger) and the other green (safe) and guess where the aid is dropped? In the red regions, which are openly described as “killing fields” by IDF soldiers themselves.
Egypt is blocking the border that connects with it - basically preventing Gazan people from escaping. Turkey to the north or Iran and Saudi Arabia to the west are not the friends of people of Palestine, as this war has shown. Turkey has the closest access, yet it too is staying silent and not trying to irke Israel or US - since the latter provides funds to Turkey for military aid.
This whole situation has shown the cowardice of the world. We as a world, couldn’t stop the previous genocide in human history and we as a world, will surely fail from stopping this one too. What an achievement.

Chaddi gang making alternate subreddits to push propaganda?
Has anyone noticed chaddi gang making alternate subReddits to push their propaganda?
Like there were popular subreddits for a particular state or discussion about India, when they realised hate is not being pushed around on these subreddits they create some alternate names and start doing their circle jerking else where.
Seems like a very targeted approach.
