I do admit the Communist on one thing (most likely only on one thing). They contribute a lot to remove communalism. And most admirable was their fight against Ayitham (untouchability). That in turn was a fertile soil to many other revolutions.
My Question to myself is (You may ask the same to yourself too).
Am I free from untouchability?
Untouchability between rich and poor. (beggars are also human beings; It is not his fault that he was born to a poor family and ‘Myself’ in a better one)
Culture to ‘Cultureless’ (Usage of fork and spoon doesn’t mean that it is the best culture)
Vegetarian to Non-Vegetarians (Phaah… eating dead-bodies)
Communists to ‘boorshua’ (bourgeoisie) [they think that rich men have no right to live in this world]
Handsome/beauty to ugly [Are they vanaras (monkeys)]?
‘Decent’ fellows to Drunken. (These decent fellows never mind a person who fell down on road-side thinking that he is drunk. He might be dehydrated, on other hand :-(
KFC-iers to ‘Thattukada (street-shop)’-iers (Uncultured fellows; not humans at all !!! But puzhukkal (worms)
White to black (A few people are reluctant to sit near by black/not-fair people in a bus; a few might be thinking that what does this bus means :-?)
Did you find anything similar to untouchable near to you?
Finally everything categorized as two streams: Rich and poor.
Foot-note:
I found two type of religion there exists no ‘untouchables’.
Smoker’s Religion: They do not mind to share same cigarette.
Boozer’s Religion: They do not mind to share same chalice (in case of shortage).
