Neither https://t.co/00NDYv81XX nor https://t.co/3tPOCsz4Yf are swadeshi!!
Friends, not everyone is technical and we Indians are very fragile to fall into the trap when people whom we trust mislead you.
I'll be proving this in the thread and will guide you to check it yourself.

2. https://t.co/SOFzVJWNdC (52.219.133.12)
Let's now find out with these IPs where they're hosted...
1. https://t.co/JsCSIfeH6Q
2. https://t.co/JXjPuBoQBM
First one is a RIPE IP and second one is ARIN, European and American IP network respectively.
1. https://t.co/kTgtVCnRkg
2. https://t.co/4wxWQhyMEN
They are owned by HostDime UK and Amazon Technologies USA.
Note that the Asian(Handling IP for India) counterpart of these are APNIC.
Open https://t.co/DVCjdBvhQL in a new tab and search https://t.co/LTrVdSOQHw after completing captcha there.
Results is kind of shocking to me...
Last when I read .in domains don't allow private/hidden whois, which I need to reconfirm as I am not up-to-date on policies since a few years.
2. Is it bad to operate like this? NO. But claiming Swadeshi is almost a crime unless they change this and they don't keep the data within Indian borders.
3. Owners of all the data are ...
These orgs are known to share data with govt when asked to and can shut down when they don't like it (remember Parler on AWS)?

Let's find out where this IP is hosted...
This is an ARIN IP and owned by DigitalOcean US. Let's confirm this with ARIN for clarity
1. https://t.co/kGTTvD3jUC
Yes, DigitalOcean US, 100% confirmed with address/email and phone. Remember Indian IP would be under APNIC.
Open https://t.co/DVCjdBvhQL and query https://t.co/9oisFqNT51.
Shocking indeed...
Wow for people like @nanda8tooter who claim SWADESHI with all this - https://t.co/BPZfLMDbzW
Also, https://t.co/PvLGUy1ILn it's clear this is just a clone of gab-social
More from India
Hindutva does not belong to Modi nor his party, it belongs to the people as a unifying, decolonial ideology similar to pan-Africanism or Yugoslavism.
His own brand of "positive secularism" is even milder - deepening special rights and welfare schemes for religious minorities.
After the disbanding of the Hindu Mahasabha and Jana Sangh, Hindutva as a political ideology does not even exist, except as a bogeyman in the minds of the Anglophone elite.
Even the BJP gave up Hindutva for civic nationalism, Gandhian socialism, and positive secularism in 1980s.
Under Modi, there has been compete policy continuity on minority rights and welfare from the Congress era, with little to no "Hindutva agenda" coming to see the light of day.
The most radical policy they can dream of is religion-neutral laws and equal rights for equal citizens.
Hindutva was essential in forming a national consciousness, but was abandoned with time. The modern BJP refuses to self-identify as a Hindutva movement, adopting moderates like Sardar Patel, Deendayal Upadhyay, and JP Narayan as their icons, rather than Savarkar or the Mahasabha.
When they say Hindu Rashtra, all they mean is an "Indic polity".
When British India was partitioned into a Muslim homeland and a Dharmic homeland, one state became a 'Ghazi' garrison state, and one the successor state to the Indic

I'm not entirely comfortable with Modi's "Hindutva".

I know many of my Indian followers will come at me, angrily - but let me just say this out.
I'm not sure it is a great model for democracy in a diverse, multi-cultural developing nation.
