EFFORTPOST Tony Hinchcliffe causes a political crisis in India

Prelude:

characters:Tony Hinchcliffe

this cute twink has an open mic show where he, with his guest panel, bullies the participants who bomb. sadly, the show is funny and has the charm of old school hazing

Act 1:

characters: AIB , Mumbai Police , Ranveer Singh

AIB was a skit comedy-satire collective and back in 2015 organized a roast show (tired copied concept i know) of Ranveer Singh (and another fella). the thing went viral...leading to police complaints, apology letters, video bans, media debate blah blah. the hot topic in contention - vulgarity. @Sasanka_of_Gauda 's favourite party, BJP, wants to maintain their monopoly on the right to be potty mouth and they made a huge hue & cry

nah, it was an across the aisle issue

writer's notes: AIB planted the flag of edgy comedy india by surviving this onslaught but couldnt cross the torrent of metoo

Act 2:

characters: Samay Raina , Ranveer Allahbadia

Samay Raina is a big chess streamer/comedian/kashmiri pandit/edgelord who likes to create parody game shows with his audience. he has been hated by the left wing for his "misogny" and love for the right govt. (he's a normal centrist tbh). he once made a fear factor + the dictator mashup where he would just eliminate players on whim calling "life is unfair". (beast games before it was cool). he one one fateful morning decided to copy.....kill tony and mix it with america's got talent. the participant has to perform, predict his score and is rewarded on the basis of their self awareness

the show blew up for its golden age unscripted game show honesty. it seriously BLEW, beyond the target audience and celebrities started clamouring to join the next cool thing. streaming websites offered money to buy the rights, live shows were getting sold out, kids were buying youtube memberships, haters were name dropping it to get views

the character 2, Ranveer Allahabadia, is the indian r-slurred joe rogan + logan paul. he used to make nofap nonsense before transitioning to clickbait podcasts. and i swear by god, HE MADE MONEY. the most braindead content with aliens, yeti, ghosts there was no r-slur grifter on internet that he had not interviewed. the people with brain hate him for that. the right wing govt, BJP, approched him to do their propaganda during elections and my man counted cash. the left wing hates him for that. the rest of youtuber hate him for his clout

ACT 3:

characters: samay raina , ranveer allahabadia , mumbai police

on the 10 year anniversary of AIB roast, when the stars aligned, my neighbor released his episode with Ranveer Allahbadia as guest. and something happened. on the show, there was some homophobic participant and the guests were grilling him by asking what if his son would turn out gay, "would you suck my peepee for 10 mil?", "what bout 20 mil?". in the flow and def due to being drunk, my man RA to fit in with other comics pulled out an old copied stinker "would you rather watch your parents have s*x or join it once to stop it forever?"

left wing clipped it to defame the right wing govt about their association with such "vulgar" people. the right wing ( @Sasanka_of_Gauda basically) went in apeshit overdrive to kill the connection by metaphorically killing the man themselves. other indians joined in their favourite passtime after r*pe, mob lynching. chief ministers of several states are personally name dropping them, police is raiding their computers, rounding up everyone from the day 1 episode 1, opportunists are planning to introduce censorship laws, libertarian right wings are clenching their jaws over their low iq compatriots, people are using "motherlover" while condemning incestuous jokes. RA is crying and apologizing. meanwhile Samay Raina is touring US while chilling cuz "life is unfair". zoomers are seething over their skibidi potty going away. media is making shit up literally to fill airtime. parliamemtary committees are being formed

Instead of filing FIR and arresting Ranveer, use this opportunity to regulate vulgar content on OTT and YouTube. There is widespread outrage among the public, and they will gladly support such laws.

Don't squander this opportunity.

It is not a solution to just ignore the things that offend you.. Normalising unethical behaviour is not at all acceptable, since it creates negative and long term impact on the society.. social platforms, movies, short films, etc. promoting vulgarity should be completely banned.
