Hypocrisy and Partiality are two bothersome defects that vitiate any situation. Be it the office and/or the family, especially the larger variety as and when they come in to contact (as joint family as an institution is already in its very last throes), obvious partiality, and hypocrisy to hide it or to gloss over it, completely ruin relationships as totally destroyed in the process is faith.
Do you think it is only amongst individual relationships, be it familial or work related, that partiality and its after effect (or is it the cause) hypocrisy are manifest? Not really! These viruses destroy national and international relations as well.
Want an example? No, we are not going to talk about the 'Trump'ery or Gaza or Ukraine. These are viruses that have mutations that can defeat the Covid one!
Let me talk about a different, a newer version. Significantly, the BBC, ever aware of the minute most wrinkle in any socio-political contexts, especially in fast developing countries like India, in this case, is conspicuously quiet. Absolutely has gone deaf, dumb, mute, blind over the issue!
The 'local' media, however, is bursting at the seams over the double dealing of the British PM about the EU connect with Britain, how it has been exposed by the Opposition, and even by the coalition partners, and, most importantly, how it has led to a constitutional climax to which apparently the Monarchy, too, has responded, proving thus that it is not merely of decorative value.
Such a context, if it really is unspooling itself in the British parliament, is a grave situation. The hypocrisy and partiality of the international media, espcially of the BBC, is such that the entire scandal is pushed under the carpet.
Despite the funny silence of the main media over the grave context, the social media, especially of the local variety has erupted over it, opening up in the process festering wounds such as the exploits of 'grooming gang'!
Unbelievable is the response of the immigrant community from india. Most of them seem to form ghettos in different pockets, live the 'here' there! The umbilical cord is tough to cut! Or is it the language problem? They do not seem to integrate with the country of adoption. They alienate themselves from the immediately local contexts, Thus win hypocrisy, and even sick conscious partiality, through ignorance!
Pratima@ In the final analysis, partiality and hypocrisy, however much they may try, cannot hide the warts and wounds that deface the reality. Instead, despite their double dealings and two timing talks, the perpetrators of partiality and hypocrisy expose themselves totally, completely, fully!
