Following the events of August 5, BJP politicians bragged of being able to not only buy land in Kashmir, but also "marry fair-skinned Kashmiri women." In the U.S., the Hindu American Foundation (HAF) published a "Reporter's Guide" on the situation in Kashmir. Central to this document were the false claims that ending Kashmir's semi-autonomy would result in equal property rights for women, more protections for the LGBTQI+ community and better opportunities for Dalits in Kashmir. Again, none of these claims were even loosely based on facts. Writing in the Indian digital publication, The Wire, Anish Gawande, co-founder and curator of Pink List India, compared the Indian government's attempt to use the LGBTQI+ community to "pinkwashing," adding that claims of "gay liberation" in Kashmir since India annexed it was nothing but "a product of digital propaganda." On "pinkwashing," an author who identifies as a queer Kashmiri Pandit wrote the following on the condition of anonymity:

"Using pinkwashing tactics, India ensures that any violent action they take against Kashmiris can be excused because they have deemed themselves the 'progressive liberators' of Kashmir. Even while propagating the myth of their LGBTQ saviorism abroad and to international audiences at U.S. Congressional hearings, they continue to fan the flames of queerphobia and transphobia to court the favor of the right wing."

Pinkwashing itself is a tactic almost certainly borrowed from the Israeli playbook in which a civilizing quest is used to conceal a project of ethnic cleansing. Israel denies Palestinian presence, history, and even claim to the land by taking over homes, renaming villages and towns, appropriating cuisine in the pursuit of removing the Palestinian footprint. Likewise, India, through a policy of "domestication"—or to use BJP leader Ram Madhav's words: "instilling India" into Kashmiri Muslims—seeks to make Kashmiri Muslims relinquish their cultural and political identity and submit to the larger Indian Hindu project. Crucially, most Indian liberals and Hindu supremacists are in agreement that Kashmir is fundamental to India—be it secular or Hindu Rashtra.

Kashmiri scholars Samreen Mushtaq and Mudasir Amin warn against characterizing the events of August 5, 2019 as the beginning of the settler-colonial project in Kashmir, but rather as an extension of the vast matrix of control that included "spatial, demographic, and ecological manifestations" that "is both a historical practice and a present day engagement rather than a singular event of invasion." While the framework of settler-colonialism may be a useful way to make the situation on ground in Kashmir comprehensible for international audiences, the authors argue that: "the reliance on a future Indian-citizen-settler runs the risk of invisibilizing the Indian armed forces already permanently stationed in Kashmir and occupying vast tracts of land. The settler colonial framework can be a useful concept for Kashmir when its shrewd combination of assimilationist and eliminationist tactics is placed within the framework of military occupation, rather than as a distinct alternative."

Collectively, this framework is set on ultimately destroying "the very idea of what it means to be a native—the elimination of history and culture such that there is a total de-familiarization with the idea of Kashmir as the homeland for the natives, going beyond disappearing, and killing the Kashmiri body."

Ooh! Can I ask if you have any fave Kashmiri chai brands? 👀 I’m p sure u like coffee and tea (right?) but what about boba? Does caffeine “work” on/for you? Favorite syrup and favorite sweetener? Give me all the random drink opinions plz 🤲🏽

U HAVE STRUCK A CHORD ! ! !

unfortunately i have no favourite kashmiri chai brands bc i just drink what my mom or daadi or naani make for me using tea leaves (we dont like the fake stuff)

and yes i LOVE coffee and tea hehehe. i used to drink boba/bubble tea a LOT in high school and university but i dont anymore bc i just dont like it anymore. im a simple person so i used to like the plain milk tea, or earl grey milk tea, or strawberry (things along those lines). omg but on the RARE occasions that i do want something ill get taro <333 i love taro. ive been buying the binggrae taro milk boxes from my local asian grocery store and yes theyre pricey and hella sweet but omg when i make an iced latte w it or a matcha w it its soooooooooooo good and my moms in love w it too hehe

when i go to tea shops now i just get plain unsweetened/milk-less green or oolong teas (hot or iced depending on my mood). ive been getting hot alishan oolong tea from this one place and omg im in love. and i loveeeeeee genmaicha or boricha <3333333

usually i wouldve recommended st*rb*cks stuff but we are not about that anymore so for ur average coffee shop/cafe i would suggest any type of mocha (regular or white mocha - basic ik but idc), lavender syrup(?), cardamom !!!!!, cinnamon (basic again). im not a biggg brown sugar syrup fan sry to upset the masses. and i dont reallyyyy drink sweet drinks :(( (only once in a while now!). but also any kind of nutty flavours are *chefs kiss*

torani and monin have some reallyyy good syrup/sauce options! and their caramel drizzle is rly good

alsoooo i love using my french press and ive been making masala coffee in it (basically i take everything i would put into my masala chai and add it to my french press w the grounds) and then i add milk (alternatives only 4 me) to it once its poured into my cup

[themorguepoet]

Dq is bae huh? You watched one movie and act like you are some diehard kinda fan lmao. If SitaRamam didn't push the hindutva agenda but had a Muslim lead and Hindu princess I am sure you would be crying love jihad. You are telugu so ofc you are gonna act like its normal. Yall are the most gullible lot of the dravidian lands. I am glad that madness hasn't reached Kerala atleast. How many malayalam movies of dq have you watched even? I see none on your blog. Selective fangirling is real pathetic lmao. Also if you were gonna lie atleast make it believable. How does an Indian have pakistani teachers lol? You bringing up nfak is like how white people say "I cant be racist, I listen to black singers all the time"

Yes, dulquer salmaan is bae. You can't be more wrong, I have watched too many dq movies to count, I won't waste time listing them all here. I dont post everything I watch. Suit yourself with the assumptions.

Anon I can laugh off most of your ignorance but Sita Ramam slander is not tolerated on my blog. Tell me you didn't understand the movie without telling me you didn't understand the movie. No I wouldn't have cried love jihad if the movie with the Muslim lead and the Hindu princess followed the exact same storyline EXACT SAME. In that case I would have loved Fatima and Ali the same as I loved Sita and Ram.

I am not Telugu, funny you would assume that although I can see why. If you scroll through my blog though you will find Hindi, Bengali, Marathi, Tamil, Telugu, possibly one Kashmiri post and more. And none of the languages I mentioned are my mother tongues. So keep guessing.

Also, you hating on two entire states and a whole community? The blatant superiority complex and hate towards telugu people radiating in your sentence is so low. To be comfortable in your own skin and not compromise on your way of life isn't madness anon. Decolonise your mind. Kerala is a beautiful state and so is Andhra and Telangana. A lot of Telugu people live in Kerala and many Malyalis live in the telugu heartlands. Both of those linguistic families are a pride for the country so stop with your political divide. I don't even understand why you are bringing such random energy on my blog cuz I have never posted any proper political commentaries on my blog.

I can choose what to fangirl over. If I wanna obsess over dq for a month I will do it. You are probably new. My mutuals know how I post about the one same thing on a stretch for a while and then find something new and keep posting that instead. Selective fangirling isn't pathetic anon, you are.

I did not lie. I don't need to prove anything. Maybe consider that some Indians probably live in neutral countries where they interact with the rest of the world. Hence the pakistani teachers.

Fallacies bestie, all your fallacies are laughable. My point was, I appreciate all things good while taking pride in my own identity. I can post about Krishna and Dulquer salmaan in the same blog.

Your rant was very useless but I wanted to answer it anyways. There's more anons from you but i won't be answering anymore. I will just delete them.

@shut-up-rabert ye lo bhoi, maze le lo

[starlightshadowsworld]

kyoko kirigiri should suffer and be horrendously tortured forever until her mind breaks and can't think besides begging for forgiveness. that's what you want

What I want is to get some good pink tea.

Like pink tea, Kashmiri tea is easy to get a hold of.

But good quality is hard to get.

Once I got some at a restaurant and it was white.

White?!

Like it's right there in the name, Pink tea.

Where the fuck did white come from?

Had to put so much sugar in it just to get some taste smh.

Thing is I get it.

Like you watch any tik tok video about making pink tea and it's just... Damn.

Like it's such a process.

Makes me kinda emotional honestly thinking about how my ancestors, grandparents would make them back home.

Also like the prowess.

That shit nerds ice and everything.

But it's so fucking worth it.

I reckon Makoto would love it, probably serve it to everyone after trials knowing how brutal it can be.

And Kyoko loves it, I so think she has a sweet tooth that she tries to hide.

Ooo they could get rusk cakes too that'd be awesome.

Personally not the biggest fan but it seems up her alley.

Just a quiet moment where everyone can breathe, enjoy each others company and the relaxing taste and aroma of kashmiri tea.

Or mehndi

I miss wearing mehndi.

I like to think Makoto would put it on Kyoko, and she's nervous at first cos her hands are scarred.

But it's a beautiful purple, yeah you can get different colours.

And it's just seeing soft beautiful flowers and patterns adorning her arms and hands that give her a sense of comfort.

And doing it is something Makoto loves to do, years of practice because Komaru loves it.

And just sharing a part of himself with her and she loves it.

[chandajaan]

☕ !!! my favourite coffee place is a few stores down from my work, i love the vibe inside with mismatched chairs & polished wooden floors. i order an iced coconut latte 🥰 im curious if you have advice about how to find friends & romantic partners with the same level of emotional depth as you, i really struggle to find people who I can connect with on that level & share my heart with!

I've never tried coconut latte! Sounds lovely, I think I'll have some Kashmiri chai, and maybe we can share a slice of Persian love cake! I'm a fan of mismatched chairs and plates in cafes 🌸

On the topic of emotional connection, I hope you aren't mislead in thinking I have the perfect social life. I've struggled with lonlieness my whole life and even now I find friendship hard. My best advice is creating these relationships like active skills and goals the way we do with our job or education. Actively making an effort is to seek out people, it's like asking your crush out on a date but it's someone who you see being close friends with! But honestly im in a similar boat, post covid I've found it so hard to make friend and connect with new people! But here's to the both of us 🤞

7. can i swim?

yes i can, but i’m not that great at it. learned when i was 11 or 12. plus i have only ever gone swimming in a swimming pool so i don’t know if i’d be good with swimming in the ocean. but i’m deadly afraid of the ocean so i’d rather die than swim in it.

16. a netflix series that is my favourite?

i LOVED “shadow and bone” and it pains me to see how underrated it is. i also really loved “queen charlotte: a bridgerton story”. everything from the cast to the script was perfect.

45. favourite tea?

i am more of a coffee person than a tea person, but on the off chance end up drinking tea, i have only ever drank 3 types of teas. one is chai(NOT chai tea cuz that’s just saying tea two times) but the pakistani version(cuz i’m from pakistan) and it might differ in taste from indian chai but i’m not sure, the other is pink tea or in pakistan also known as kashmiri chai and then green tea(which i am not a fan of). if i had to rank them it would be:

kashmiri chai

simple chai

green tea
