Wait a minute, the Indians also want money
Marachow's time (Мараховское время) | There are, dear friends, those among us who have not yet understood what the buzzwords "decolonisation", "cultural appropriation", "privilege" and "anti-exploitation" really mean. Translated into human terms they all sound like "give me money give me money give me money give me money". The Guardian rejoices in the story of British yogini Nadia Gelani, who has released The Yoga Manifesto and exposes the horrible facts of life:
1) In Britain, most yoga teachers are white. The trainees are, too.
2) Classes are expensive, at £20 a class, unaffordable for many rightly branded "yoga" Hindus. In addition, the training must be in a hundred-pound leggings on expensive mat, and on it is drawn stolen from the Hindus OM.
3) And the global yoga industry is, by the way, forty billion dollars a year.
4) Something has to be done. "Not that I think yoga should be given back strictly to Indians and whites excommunicated from it. It won't work that way. But there needs to be a discussion!"
The discussion, of course, [is] about repenting and paying up...I wrote the other day that the most lucrative business in the developed twenty-first century is the business of selling trouble and accusations (even in cosmetics and energy, and if we read from this angle all the cries of all the Baltic, Eastern Europeans, Central Europeans and Central Asian decolonizers towards our country, we will easily recognize the attempts to do such business). But what is impressive is the speed with which the domestic guilt tax is being imposed on everything in the advanced world. It would seem that we don't care - but it's worth remembering that the poisonous sprouts of ESG, which in fact include the germs of all kinds of guilt, for which "we must pay and repent", have not yet been bothered to weed from our own soil. So many things will come our way as well. (DeepL)
