I Wonder What Kind Of Fucked Up Mindset Does One Need To Justify What Happened To Her Was Okay, Because

I wonder what kind of fucked up mindset does one need to justify what happened to her was okay, because nobody with even a shred of morality would say that. This Sigma trend is one of the stupidest thing to happen to this generation.

So it is a trend in shows to show how Draupadi rejects Karna, saying she won't marry the son of a suta, how she calls Duryodhan "andhe ka putra andha" and laughs at him. Every show does it.

BRC did it. SP MB did it. RK did it. SPK did it. Heck, even that weird ass animation that came out in 2013 showed this as well.

Funnily, this event has 0 mentions in texts.

Karna FAILS in the event. Draupadi does not reject him. You see, Canon Draupadi is a sweet and generous lady. She is not a jealous or egoistic or short-tempered individual, tbh.

Also, check out the ACK Mahabharata. All the characters look immensely pretty in it, plus it is very close to the BORI version of MB so it can be seen as a decent source.

Now, back to the topic.

So technically I was swiping through Insta, and I saw this reel, where they showed Draupadi laughing on Duryodhana,(they used clips from SPK), and the reel showed "Wake up to reality" and then proceeded to show Draupadi being disrobed.

God, I hate the new sigma/alpha trend. Is it really cool to be sexist these days???

Let's just keep aside every perspective of Draupadi's character aside. Whether you like her or not, it does not matter.

She is an INNOCENT woman. She has come in Hastinapur as a GUEST. She did nothing wrong. And even if she had rejected Karna or insulted Duryodhan, it does not give them the right to disrobe her in return.

I feel showrunners try to inculcate the incident of Draupadi insulting these two to justify their hatred towards her?

TBH She did nothing to warrant such atrocious behavior towards her. Now, some ppl also like to blame the Pandavas for this, and honestly I do agree. These five men, who are great warriors, cannot look past their stupid sense of morality to help their own wife. How will they help other women when they cannot stand up for their own wife?

BUT.

BUT.

It is crucial to know that even if the Pandavas did not do anything at the moment, they, and several others like Bhishma, Vidur and Drona, had the decency to acknowledge their wrongs. The Pandavas tried to make amends, and they did. The war may not have been to avenge Draupadi's insult entirely, but it was still a very big factor in the war.

The Kauravas never even acknowledged that their actions were wrong. They dragged a woman to court, a woman who was their sister-in-law, and was in her periods. (Fuck, that must have hurt as hell.)

This woman, she is brought into the hall, and then Dushasan drags her around, as she begs for help. She is called a harlot, for marrying 5 men, when she is not the first woman to do so. Plus everyone knows that it was bound to happen, because of the boon of her previous birth. Draupadi would have had 5 husbands, or none at all.

Now, Karna orders her to be disrobed, Duryodhan passes lewd comments on her, and Dushasan...well, let's not mention him.

As a female, I feel horrible for Draupadi. The amount of physical and mental pain this woman went through because of this incident is incomparable. She would have been stripped naked and potentially gang-raped if it had not been for Krishna #onemorereasontoloveKrishna

And people have the gall to say it is her fault and she got what she deserved. The fucking audacity.

He's such an icon šŸ‘

If you didnt pander to trans/gays you'd have zero fans because your writing sucks.

I'm sure you're right. But that means there must be tens of millions of trans and gay people reading my books and comics. And I'm good with that.

It Is More Important Than Ever To Keep Sharing, Showing Up For Protests, And Sending Emails To Your Representatives.

It is more important than ever to keep sharing, showing up for protests, and sending emails to your representatives.

Keep talking about Palestine until the siege on Gaza ends, until the occupation ends, and until Palestinians are free.
