The document provides information about the satirical Facebook page "Humans of Hindutva". It began in April 2017 and has gained over 100,000 likes in under 7 months. The anonymous page parodies right-wing views in India and was created as an alternative to political satire publications abroad. It aims to highlight issues like casteism, moral policing, and attacks by cow protection groups through humor and satire. While it resonates with liberal audiences, it also faces threats and legal challenges due to its controversial content. The page leverages Facebook and other online platforms to build a counter-culture community, though it must also contend with censorship and the lack of protections for online satirists in India.

Political Communication In Digital Age – Social Media AnalysisVijaykumar Meti
In the age of digital world, social media are said to have an impact on the public sphere and communication in the society. Especially social media have been extensively using in political context. Popular social network sites like Facebook and Twitter are believed to have the potential for increasing political participation. While, microblogging site Twitter is an ideal platform for political institutions to spread not only information in general but also political opinions publicly through their networks. Political institutions, politicians, political foundations, etc. have also begun to use Facebook pages or community groups for the purpose of entering into direct dialogs with citizens and encouraging more political discussions.
Lies, Spies and Big Data: How Fake News Is Rewriting Political LandscapesRussian Council
On November 7, 2016, Donald Trump was elected President of the United States after a bitterly-fought campaign against Hillary Clinton. The election was very closely-run, with Hillary Clinton winning the popular vote, but losing the presidency based on the U.S. electoral college structure. However, months after Donald Trump was declared President of the United States, questions remain about the legitimacy of the U.S. elections. The central issues are the emergence and use of so-called ‘Fake News’ and the accusation that Russia, through espionage and online hacking operations, sought to influence the presidential elections to promote Donald Trump and denigrate the reputation of Hillary Clinton.
The issues thrown up in the wake of the U.S. presidential election have fundamentally undermined trust in the workings of the international media and further damaged U.S.–Russia relations. A report by the U.S. intelligence services accusing Russia of attempting to influence the outcome of the election, prepared for President Obama and published in the election’s immediate aftermath, led to the expulsion1 of 35 Russian diplomats from Washington just days after the results were announced. President Putin, on the other hand, opted not to expel any U.S. diplomats from Russia. The investigation into Russia’s involvement and influence on the U.S. elections continues today.
This policy brief provides an overview of how the gathering and dissemination of news has changed in a globalized digital environment, how consumers digest and share news at an ever-increasing pace, and how the management of big data can influence electorates across borders. It will also define ‘fake news’ and the extent to which it might have influenced the results of the U.S. elections.

American election watching in Myanmar:
Considering social media and Buddhist-Muslim conflict.As Myanmar continues to face violence between Buddhist and Muslim communities a number of
voices, from within the country and from outside, have raised concerns about the influence of
social media. After riots in Mandalay during July 2014, for example, international and local
media and government sources identified rumours circulating on Facebook as the cause.2
President Thein Sein has also raised concerns about ‘hate speech’ and other instigating messages
shared online and in her first report the new UN Special Rapporteur for Human Rights in
Myanmar, Ms Yanghee Lee, noted that such messages are fuelling and triggering violence.3 But
less than 5% of the population in Myanmar is estimated to have access to the Internet.4 How can
access to social media be contributing to Buddhist-Muslim conflicts?
To say that low Internet penetration rates proves the irrelevance of social media is too
simple, however, especially because access to the Internet is expanding rapidly. As an empirical
matter, it is likely too early to conclusively determine if and how social media access is
influencing Buddhist-Muslim conflicts in Myanmar. But this does not mean the potential
relationship is unworthy of consideration. Therefore, in order to generate insights that may be
useful in both understanding the contemporary moment as well as anticipating the future, this
chapter will draw from experiences with, and literature on, relationships between social media
and political conflicts in another country context: the United States.

In a May 9, 2024 paper, Juri Opitz from the University of Zurich, along with Shira Wein and Nathan Schneider form Georgetown University, discussed the importance of linguistic expertise in natural language processing (NLP) in an era dominated by large language models (LLMs).
The authors explained that while machine translation (MT) previously relied heavily on linguists, the landscape has shifted. “Linguistics is no longer front and center in the way we build NLP systems,” they said. With the emergence of LLMs, which can generate fluent text without the need for specialized modules to handle grammar or semantic coherence, the need for linguistic expertise in NLP is being questioned.

Welcome to the new Mizzima Weekly !
Mizzima Media Group is pleased to announce the relaunch of Mizzima Weekly. Mizzima is dedicated to helping our readers and viewers keep up to date on the latest developments in Myanmar and related to Myanmar by offering analysis and insight into the subjects that matter. Our websites and our social media channels provide readers and viewers with up-to-the-minute and up-to-date news, which we don’t necessarily need to replicate in our Mizzima Weekly magazine. But where we see a gap is in providing more analysis, insight and in-depth coverage of Myanmar, that is of particular interest to a range of readers.

Women have three distinct types of involvement: direct involvement in terrorist acts; enabling of others to commit such acts; and facilitating the disengagement of others from violent or extremist groups.

Yeduguri Sandinti Jagan Mohan Reddy, often referred to as Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy, is an Indian politician who currently serves as the Chief Minister of the state of Andhra Pradesh.

हम आग्रह करते हैं कि जो भी सत्ता में आए, वह संविधान का पालन करे, उसकी रक्षा करे और उसे बनाए रखे।" प्रस्ताव में कुल तीन प्रमुख हस्तक्षेप और उनके तंत्र भी प्रस्तुत किए गए। पहला हस्तक्षेप स्वतंत्र मीडिया को प्रोत्साहित करके, वास्तविकता पर आधारित काउंटर नैरेटिव का निर्माण करके और सत्तारूढ़ सरकार द्वारा नियोजित मनोवैज्ञानिक हेरफेर की रणनीति का मुकाबला करके लोगों द्वारा निर्धारित कथा को बनाए रखना और उस पर कार्यकरना था।
2. What?
A satirical page that parodies popular
right wing views and news around
politics, social, and business
developments in India.
Humans of Hindutva
V/s
A Human of Hindutva
When?
The page is run by an anonymous
individual and commenced in April
2017. It has garnered over 100,000
likes in less than 7 months
Where?
The most popular platform for the
same is Facebook where there is
massive engagement for the page.
Also on a blog with an upcoming web
platform “www.satyanaash.com”
Why?
The page was started as a direct result
of heated exchanges with online trolls
and nationalist friends. The author
wanted an Indian alternative to popular
political satire publications abroad.
3. “I have received death threats. Strangers abuse my
family, people threaten to take me to court. All this for
the crime of running a satirical page which takes pot
shots at Hindutva (not Hinduism) and the politicians
who cater to it.I back everything with data to support
it. Mine is just a parody page to make myself laugh”
4. HOH: What’s in a Name?
Humans of New York (HONY):
Raw, emotional and personal
narratives by founder Brandon
Stanton that urges social media users
to share and comment.
Connects with millions.
Led to multiple rip - offs due to
unique style.
Humans of Hindutva (HOH):
With HONY, your instinct is to trust
the content because you’ve been told
that it is based on real people.
At HOH, your instinct should be to
not trust anything because it’s a
parody. And yet, people fall for my
most over-the-top posts,
5. Media Context
As A Counter Culture
Alleged “saffronisation” on the
rise.
Sense of anti establishment
amongst section of society.
Incidents such as beef ban, public
lynching, surprise
demonestisation etc
As a response and counter to this
prevalent trend
As A Popular Culture
It has resonated with the liberally
inclined people of the society.
It has fuelled the culture of
underground, sleeper movement on
online platform.
It combines news with satire and
humour, with a well curated visual
content strategy.
6. “We live in a country that is anything but boring. Simply opening the
newspaper every morning makes me chuckle. Every day there’s yet
another politician or celebrity saying something dumb. Every day the
government backtracks on an earlier promise. With each passing day this
country is taking a step back into the past with doctored history, mass
hysteria and inflated nationalism becoming the norm...People are
defending the violence of gau-rakshaks and anti-Romeo squads and
talking about Hindu Rashtra. They claim that there is no racism or
casteism or sexism in India. It is this apathy that I wish to address.”
- HOH Founder / Admin
7. Content Analysis
● Routinely attempts to riff off current events to highlight casteism,
surveillance, moral policing, attacks by the Gaurakshaks and other
aspects of Hindutva
● Content as a counter to the mainstream narrative and the increasing
pages / posts which are engaged in the business of peddling lies and
doctored videos to propagate a certain ideology
● Topical Content
● Tonality: Intellectual Satire / Humorous / Politically Incorrect
● With emerging platforms it is very easy to start something like this, but
not necessarily easy to sustain it
● Analogue Equivalent: Underground counterculture Pamphlets and
newsletters
20. Connect
● Facebook
● Blog
● Satyanaash.com
● WhatsApp/ eWoM
Community standards of the platform
How counter culture of satire is made possible
by these platforms
Technological enablement
21. ● People repeatedly hitting the 'Report Abuse' button probably stems
from their inability to understand Humans of Hindutva's brand of
humour.
● People who troll the content.
● Liberals and neo-liberals who find a way out to voice their opinions
against the intolerance and hence end up sharing the content in
their social media assets.
● The People who content is shared to.
● Traditional media outfits.
Consumer
22. Value
● Value in sociological, economic and linguistic sense
● Marx and Labour Theory of Value: Value and Surplus value
● Value as a way to empower people to act
● Broad definition of labour in political economy of media
Theory
Humans of Hindutva
● Economic Value: Difficult to quantify distributed media
● Linguistic Value: Tone, sarcasm in language as a way to evoke emotions
● Sociological Value: Openness, expression to talk about society and
issues that affect them
● Building and maintaining social network and relationships: 1 lakh +
followers in 8 months
23. Labour
HoH is contributing to the overall
content library of Facebook.
Whatever content is uploaded on the
channel Facebook , the channel has
the ownership.
This content is monetized in terms
of engagement on the platform,
digital ad rates etc.
HoH is thus a labour engaged on
Facebook.
The followers of the page who like,
comment and share on the posts are
the labour for HoH.
An individual when he or she
comments on a post, their act
contributes directly to the content of
the HoH page.
This in turn leads to a free labour for
Facebook.
Thus users are the hidden labour
25. Challenges
Anonymity & Trolls
Archaic Laws &
political forces
Weak protection
Laws
Regulation(FB)
Remaining anonymous removes individual credibility
from the post. Trolls also constitute a a large share of new
media conversation.
Satirists can be jailed under arbitrary, archaic laws that
protect political forces leading to an almost non existent
culture of satire.
Little or no safety programs exist with death threats,
abuse and harassment online & offline common for
satirists.
Facebook’s algorithm can’t understand sarcasm leading
to multiple cases of banning and reporting posts.
26. Opportunities
● Facebook as a commodified space
● User generated content: Democratisation and
empowerment
● HOH: Ability to build an ideology through the
community of followers using digital space
● Giving rise to a new form of intellectual writing and
expression
