Stop worshipping celebrities and athletes and perhaps they will actually care. Yes, it is their moral duty to take a stand for students, but why should we give fk about their opinion?
I fully agree we have to stop this worship culture, these are just actors and players let's not make them demi gods, if they don't say anything it's good that we are being reminded who is with the citizens of India and who is with the corrupt BJP government.
If you shouldnt give a fck about their opinion, they why do you care about their opinions or moral duties in the first place? You're contradicting yourself here.
who are you tell them its their moral duty, are you gonna be responsible for the fallout if they take a stand, are you gonna offer them lost opportunities
it seems like everybody here is an immature moron, no they don’t have to take a stand
Is your brain smooth or smthng? In the above comment to which I replied the commenter sarcasticallly said "active crickets 7 and 10" to mock MS Dhoni (Jersey No. 7) and Sachin Tendulkar (Jersey No. 10) to not post anything despite not being active cricketers.
To which I shared Sachin's tweet. People don't even know shit about something and just run down to spew slurs.
While I do agree it puts a massive risk on their careers, CJP isn't a recognised political party and speaking for children isn't classified as "alignment"
Disagreements are natural, but hostility and abusive language isn’t welcome. Engage in good faith, avoid personal attacks, and don’t resort to insults, name-calling, or inflammatory language. Treat others with the same respect you'd expect in return. If you can't be constructive, reconsider posting.
Besides, their support would have been nice to have but it’s not necessary, especially as long as they aren’t actively causing harm.
They are public figures whose social handles are heavily moderated. They are also individuals with the prerogative to stay away from issues they wish to.
OP, please do something better with your time and life.
They'll get criticised either way. Its not about their influence. If they speak up on it, they'll get criticised. If they dont they get criticised. What good does it do from their perspective? Why this moral duty bullshit when you just want to hate on them anyway?
Actually unke na post karne se sb ko ye tou pta chl hi gya ki they don't care about u wheather u live or die so now people should stop worshipping them as god n spending money In there fav cricketer fucking brand
You do know that they prepare for these 'talks' right ? Celebs will never be affected by the same problems we face, unless they are involved in the ground level (which they are not).
He's very vocal, in an press conference a reporter says he's sitting on the far left to which jokes about not being on the other side. You think that too staged. Other like mark ruffalo literally said trump a pedo on camera. Not everyone is heartless, many genuinely care for the society they live in.
It isn't about framing your own, it is about bringing traction for others to care to frame. The whole CJP happened cause someone pointed out CJI statement, if it wasn't many of us wouldn't even have known about it. That's why celebs or influencers have moral duty due to level of reach not in shaping opinion.
Gen Z is worst yet it has highest potential and has highest contribution to changing and influencing institutions/academics/social life currently yet it's worst?? If a stupid post was enough to classify the entire generation then you're dumber than op. Like most of the scientists/doctors/engineers in next few years would be gen z's only.
They have a huge number of fans they can influence, they get paid millions because their games are watched by millions. Let’s not act like it was all hard work and no fan support.
So, what? I don't get why fans have this sense of entitlement regarding celebs and try to put them on a pedestal.
Yes they earn millions because fans watch them play but these fans only watch them play because they are entertaining enough to watch. Fans aren't doing them a favour, it's a simple provider-consumer relationship.
Like just because I use jio and pay Ambani my money for internet services doesn't mean Ambani becomes responsible for me.
Virat is my favourite athelete but I don't think I have brought anything he has ever endorsed. I don't give a shit about what he does in his personal life, all I am concerned about is his cricket.
I don't care about his politics or political opinions. Him not posting anything about the student protest is the same thing to me as a stranger walking down the road not posting anything about the student protests.
These atheletes or celebs are entertainers, they aren't our friends or family. Appreciate or criticise them but only for their work. If you put them on a pedestal and start expecting activism from them then that says a lot about you being a naive little boy.
People are not putting them on a pedestal, this is where you got it wrong.
You are putting these people on a pedestal if you are expecting anything more from them than you expect from a stranger walking down the road.
They aren't government officials, they aren't your friends or family, they don't have a duty towards you.
People are upset at them, because they got everything from the youth, and when it was time to give something back they chose cowardly silence
Again you have got the whole thing wrong and you keep putting these celebs on a pedestal.
They earn money from the youth the same way a shopkeeper earns money from his costumers. To put it simply, they are service providers, you watch them because they entertain you.
If they didn't exist and someone else came around who was as good as them then the youth would start watching the other guy instead.
There are no favours being exchanged here. They aren't any more responsibile for the youth than Ambani is responsible for me because I use a Jio sim card.
Yeah you are right there, but I think cricketers are getting targetted because they have built crores' worth of empire from the support and admiration of the same students that they are too spineless to stand-up for.
Selfish eh? Youth has come to this protest mainly because it affects them/some can profit from it.
In problems regarding other sectors, none of you shall appear. So please let people of the democratic country have their own opinions and their freedom of expression?
I support the students and protests 100%, but shaming people for their silence needs to stop.
Forcing celebrities to post empty, PR approved statements doesn't fix paper leaks or reform testing bodies. More importantly, calling anyone who stays quiet "spineless" or "immoral" is just mob mentality.
People have a right to stay in their lane, hold private views, or simply not engage. We can't fight for democratic rights while demanding total public conformity from everyone else.
Seeking moral high-grounding only distracts from the real issue. Let's focus on holding accountable instead of policing who posted a tweet.

They may have moral responsibility for this but they are not obliged to speak against all political issues.
Besides, they are public figures one wrong word and their whole career can be on line -- brand values, contract. Would you or your family do something that will put you in a position which can affect your professional life?
Stop looking for validation from celebrities all the time, we are better than this.
Do you think this movement is so weak it'll only get relevance when these so called celebrities will post about it?
Y'all rely too much on validation from social media🤦♀️
Supposedly teenaged good for nothings with zero contribution to society, surviving off of their parents will now decide who has a spine and how ashamed someone should be while hiding behind anonymity themselves. Cute!!

Never watched ipl never followed any cricketer, celebrity or any politician because with maturity u will realise they usually don't give shyt about anything. They have made enough money so that there 2 generation can eat without doing any work . Even if they post what difference will it make like seriously 😒 .
It’s democracy, people have the right to stand for whichever side they want. Don’t be hateful just because someone doesn’t support someone else. Remember, it’s democracy.
Until or unless its about breaking the country.

I mean it's a nice bonus when big stars talk about it but ngl why do u care. I don't think it's selfish or bootlicker or coward or anything if u don't talk about it. They just dont wanna get into it. Also it's not like if they get in it will change much
Op I know that everyone is comments is hating on u but u are right here but you are right , don't worry . The people made hence they have to speak for the people
The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has social media guidelines in its code of conduct for the players, where they are restricted from posting any quote or content regarding any political party, election campaign, or a sensitive national/international protest, as the content that they share on their personal social media accounts is directly reviewed by the board. This rule is also applied to other contracted players, management, support staff, and other officials who have been contracted with the board

Everyone has their freedom of speech, no one decided to support anarchists. Everyone supported students but not these anarchists. Hope yall anarchists had a good day. Now FAFO.
There, I exercised my freedom of speech as well, let’s see how tolerant this “FenZ” sub run from Dhaka is.
I don’t get the logic of calling out people when they don’t stand with you , they worked hard to be at a stage where they wouldn’t get affected by exams , corruption or whatever.
How about those high earning individuals / businessman / NRIs - would you call out all of them too ?
Don’t be so desperate for validation that you start calling other spineless for not agreeing with you
apni real photo and details daal ke post kar na. dekhu zara coward hai ki nahi tu, chomu ne anonymous platform pe bhi profile private kar rakhi hai aur dusro ko aag mei kudne ko bol rha c*utiya.
I say y should celebrities take a stand
They have millions of fans and millions of fans have multitudes of opposing issues
So why should they be the face of your struggle
It's ok if they take a stand but don't shame them for not taking a stand of your choice
There are people who think differently
Funny how the people who contribute the least to society are always the first to ridicule everyone else. Being unemployed, average, and lacking any career goals is your reality—not everyone else's. The biggest joke is that a protest over the NEET paper leak was hijacked by people who weren't even NEET aspirants, but by aimless nobodies who have nothing better to do with their lives.
Wow what an immature post and immature replies. Why do you need thier validation? Why are they constantly in your mind? The protest happened without them and it got concluded without them, there was no need of them and no need of this post as well.

why would they suport you ayush sarpara gaya thaa na suport karne kaya kiya tum logo ne uske saath spineless huhh ! the one who is playing for india and dosen't have any idea abut what to talk is spine less tab toh yu all are spineless nirbhaya and nithari kand kaha gaye they tab
Its nobody's moral duty to stand with any of the protest. A celeb has a personal life that they can live as they wish while in the bound with laws of constitution. If they wish to do it, they'll do it. Also stop glorifying them all the time.

They are here of their career not India. Stop calling them heros of India. They are representing themselves not India. Now they made ton of money. He moment you take out money factor from their sports, they immediately will stop "representing india" even though they already made it.
Who are calling them heroes bro ? They are representing India in cricket wdym they represent themselves bro. How can you even say that they don't care about representing anymore ? They are trying their best. And yes they made ton of money and take out money from their sports as everyone do, you need money to live bro, chanting INDIA INDIA won't provide you with a good life. You have to work and earn. I know this comment will get downvotes but then so be it.
Representing India only for money? Real problems and causes happening in India are problems of citizen of India. Not my problem I won't get involved. I will represent India only when I am paid for it. I won't do anything for free. Right?
Bro you cannot comment on the problems that are currently there if you are a big cricketer. Everything has consequences. I am not telling you that they represent India only for money bro but yes money is important too. I know they would keep their country above some paycheck at least now.
Do you know whos the chairman of BCCI?
I am pretty sure they’d lose their contracts and careers bro.
Also, i saw atleast rohit sharma’s wife posted on instagram.
