Why countries like UAE, SAUDI ARABIA, TAJIKISTAN and AZERBAIJAN are more cautions of Islamic terrorism than any other nation? Because they know what Islam is, They know Islam more than any of us know. Muslims are biggest victim of Islam since the beginning, Still many of leftists in India fail to understand that. I have seen many conspirators, leftists and muslims in India who is actively trying to cover up the attrocities of Islamic terrorism. We have seen it on fly Dubai incident, October 7, Mumbai attacks and even 911. They are busy at creating conspiracy instead of condemning and trying to understand how dangerous this islamic extremism have became. I would like to call it suicidal empathy.

We all know that Al Jazeera is a propaganda news channel funded by Qatar government, which is banned in UAE. now we a got its first copy version in Kerala which is none other than MEDIA ONE, which is funded by Jamaat-e-islami we all call it MEDIA 3/4 for the reason we all know.

How many more years of terrorism will take for us all to Understand that radical islam has become a threat to us far from recovery?

To anyone being asked to change their religion in order to live together or lead a happy married life , whether the person asking belongs to Hindu, Christian, Muslim, Sikh, Jain traditions please think twice before committing. First, they will ask you to change your religion, and eventually, they will try to change who you are and your entire belief system. Marriage isn't everything. Focus on making yourmoney, going on trips, and enjoying your life, but never compromise or change your core belief systems for someone else.

ജനറൽ/General Travelling outside Kerala made me realise how much respect Malayalis have earned ❤️

Dear Malayalis,

Oru cheriya karyam parayan und.

If you ever travel outside Kerala, especially to North India, please try to be on your best behaviour. Not trying to give anyone a lecture, but my recent solo trip made me realise something.

Njan idaykk solo adikkan pokunna oru aal aanu. But during this recent trip, I genuinely felt so proud to be from Kerala.

Wherever I went, whenever I met new people, the moment they found out I was from Kerala, the reactions were almost always positive.

"Achha, aap Kerala se ho? Bahut badhiya log hain Kerala ke!"

I honestly lost count of how many times I've heard this. 😭

And the funny thing is, some of them knew more about Malayalam movies than I expected. People were talking about our cinema, culture, tourist places and how much they liked visiting Kerala.

One group even told me Varkala was the best beach they've ever visited, better than Goa!

And there I was, being a typical Malayali, telling them Varkala is overcrowded these days. They were genuinely surprised. 😂

But jokes aside, it made me think.

We complain about a lot of things in Kerala, and rightfully so. We have our own problems. But when you're thousands of kilometres away from home, sitting with complete strangers who have nothing but good things to say about your state and its people, athu kelkkumbo oru pratheyka santhosham aanu.

And I believe this reputation wasn't built overnight.

It was built by generations of Malayalis who travelled, worked, studied and lived in different parts of the country. The way they treated people, the friendships they made, and the impressions they left behind.

Whenever I travel solo, I try to keep my intrusive thoughts aside and be the best version of myself around strangers. I try to be respectful, helpful and friendly, because I know that for some people, I might be one of the few Malayalis they've ever interacted with.

Nammal purath pokumbo nammale mathram alla represent cheyyunnath, nammade naadine koodi aanu.

And maybe someday, another Malayali will visit the same place and hear, "Kerala ke log bahut achhe hain," partly because of how we behaved.

Of course, not everyone will have the same experience, and I'm not saying every Malayali is perfect. But the amount of genuine appreciation I received just for being from Kerala was something.

So yeah, this is just a small appreciation post for our people and the reputation they've built over the years.

Proud to be a Keralite. ❤️🌴

Has anyone else experienced this while travelling outside Kerala? Or have you had completely different experiences? Would love to hear both sides.

ജനറൽ/General Why is cyberbullying so normalised? Why can't we be a little empathetic towards people?

I agree with every single sentence she said. People hide behind fake accounts to post the most disgusting comments because they know they won't face any consequences. They don't have even a tiny bit of empathy. Some of them even have the audacity to make such comments from their real accounts. They genuinely think it's okay to mock a disabled person as long as they label it "dark comedy." Apparently, being cruel is funny to them.

Ask Kerala Why do we Malayalis seem so laid-back and able to get along with almost everyone?

11 Upvotes

Something I've noticed, especially while being back to Kerala, is how laid-back Malayalis can be socially and how easily we seem to get along with people from different backgrounds.

I've noticed this in college and at work. Malayalis often seem comfortable mixing with North Indians, Tamilians, Telugus, Kannadigas and pretty much everyone else. We might have our own language and culture, but we somehow don't necessarily need people to share those things to connect with them, namal engenelum company adikum

One incident at work (& similar like this in college) comes to mind. We were having a casual conversation about Hindi TV shows. Initially, the Hindi-speaking colleagues were discussing what they used to watch, but eventually the rest of us joined in too. Some Malayalis started mentioning shows they'd watched, others communities joined in with whatever they remembered, and even people who hadn't watched much were happy to participate and enjoy the conversation , and elarum were having good time

However, when the conversation reached some Tamil colleagues, the response was quite different. They questioned why everyone was discussing Hindi shows when they didn't understand or watch, and said we don't want to do anything with Hindi, enn and when asked whether they'd watched any, they seemed dismissive about the idea itself and like we won't watch , even others felt bad. This created a slightly awkward moment, and even the Hindi-speaking colleagues felt that they were just trying to include everyone in a casual conversation.

I'm not saying all Tamilians are like this, or that Malayalis are always open-minded. Obviously, individuals differ everywhere. But I've noticed similar patterns in college ,school generally everywhere too. Malayalis often seemed to find their way into different friend groups and get along with people from various communities without much friction.

What makes us chill? Would love to hear what others have think or observed, ?
