Rahul Mehta Gandhinagar LsCandidate

How is honest and committed AAPians getting fooled by (paid-media + AK) ? There is saying in Gujarati that "lobhi hoi tya bhutara bhukhe na mare" i.e. "place where greedy people live, fraudsters will find some business". But AAPians are honest and committed. Then how come they are gwtting fooled by 100 year old (paid media posing duratma gandhi as mahatma gandhi) trick? Because AAPians are "greedy for India" , in the sense that they want to fix India merely by pressing voting buttons, slogan shouting, cap-wearing, jhadu weilding and not doing hard work .....

Let me elaborate

There is an axiom in politics, that if a person is honest, then he can at worst only be subdued by violence or by fooled keeping conditions in fine print, but honest person cant be fooled by open frauds. But there is a caveat --- the person must not be "greedy". Greedy is someone who wants far far more return for his work or his efforts than what normal market can offer. eg say banks are giving return of say 10% a year i.e. they double the money in 7 years. Now if someone comes and promises that he will double the money in 2 years or 1 years or tripple the money in 1 year, then someone falls for it, then he was not dishonest but greedy. IOW, anyone who is hoping to get too much than his efforts are worth is greedy.

𝗔𝗔𝗣𝗶𝗮𝗻𝘀 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗴𝗿𝗲𝗲𝗱𝘆 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗜𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗮, 𝘁𝗵𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗵 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗴𝗿𝗲𝗲𝗱𝘆 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗺𝘀𝗲𝗹𝘃𝗲𝘀. They are NOT greedy for themselves and dont want personal enrichment from their political activities. But they are greedy in the sense that they want problems of India to be fixed with "minimal" efforts. But they want to do it in easy way "by just clicking voting buttons", and shouting slogans, wearing caps, wielding jhadu and other entertaining ways. 𝗔𝗔𝗣𝗶𝗮𝗻𝘀 𝗱𝗼𝗻𝘁 𝘄𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝗱𝗼 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗯𝗿𝗮𝗶𝗻 𝗱𝗲𝗮𝗱 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗯𝗼𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸 𝗼𝗳 𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗵𝗼𝘄 𝗼𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗰𝗼𝘂𝗻𝘁𝗿𝗶𝗲𝘀 𝗿𝗲𝗱𝘂𝗰𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗶𝗿 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗯𝗹𝗲𝗺𝘀. AAPians dont want to understand why "slogan shouting" and neta-bhakti etc failed in 1977 and has failed 10s of times at State\Local level. And they want to evade all uncomfortable details.

IOW, AAPians are NOT greedy for themselves. But they The desire to fix nation, with "least" possible efforts is what is enabling paid-media fool them by projecting AK has hero. Essentially, paid-media has convinced that that theye is an easy way to fix India, "just make AK as PM". If AAPians had worked hard and gone thru details, they would have found that there is NO easy way. The only know way to fix nation is difficult way of going thru 1000s of law-pages , decide what laws would help, and AFTER THAT force MPs etc to print those laws.

One may not be greedy for himself. But even if he is "greedy for nation", he will get fooled. And thats what paid-media and AK are doing.
