An Indian friend of mine has said that Twitter (a US based IT organisation) blocked and censored all the Hindu God’s images (they are having something in there, some temple issues) and has supported the separatists group. He alleged that Westerns never want India to be at peace (I didn’t feel a thing coz I don’t get influenced by politics) and they always want Hindus to be fighting with the separatists group in their countries. I want to know how correct his allegations and news are.
In my defence : the above para is not political from any angle (albeit it looks like that from every angle), I want to know what made that friend of mine to say things like that, and even if that allegation is true then also what makes a 18 years old high school student to involve himself in such matters. So, my question is two folds: 1. Are those things true? 2. The psychological view of what he said.

Odd that nobody said LANDER.
LENDER MENDER CALENDAR

Seems like a lot of verbs end with "end".

@sai-kartik RENDER. Now I wonder whether it comes from "rend" or not... Ok Google says it does not.

If I get banned from the parent site(chemistry in my case), can I switch the parent site to something else to continue to use Chat?
 
1 hour later…
11:56
@Safdar Suspension on parent site and suspension on chats are two different things. You may get suspended on parent site but you can talk in chats without any prohibitions.
@Knight When we get banned don't we get reset to 1 until the end of the suspension? So if I didn't have another site where I have earned more than 20, doesn't the chat privilege get temporarily disabled? Atleast until I gain an aggregate of 20 rep from other sites or when the ban ends?
@Safdar No, you can still talk in chats.
That 20 reps requirement is for first time users.
@Knight Oh. thanks.
You’re welcome
12:26
@Knight idk anything about the political part but the part about banning images of hindu gods doesn't seem true, I mean it's easy to find lots of pics of them by searching twitter
12:46
@Knight and @Safdar Actually, if you the parent account of your chat user gets suspended, you are also banned from chat. Here is a related feature requests: Don't extend suspensions from the parent site to chat.
For example, you can see in my chat profile that I have Mathematics as the parent site. So if I get suspension on MathOverflow, I still can chat. If I get suspended on Mathematics, I can no longer use chat.
@MartinSleziak So what if I switch my parent site after, considering I have enough rep to do so.
@AlexanderGruber Twitter stated that it sensitive content and censored it to be exact. It wasn't blocked.
13:15
@Safdar Well, the same rule still applies. You will not be able to chat if you get suspended on that site (the one which you switch to).
@MartinSleziak That seems more probable. Thanks.. [*Elaborate scheme to get banned begins] :-)
@Safdar You want to get banned, you say?
13:35
@XanderHenderson You need a valid reason though. *Smiles evilly[not sure if that is a word]
@Safdar is that a regional thing? I'm seeing lots of images on USA twitter
@Safdar I'm sure that a valid reason could be manufac... er... found. The more pressing issue is that you don't have a Math SE account. :P
It could be they're from before this policy, though, i suppose
@XanderHenderson Or do I?
@AlexanderGruber I am fairly certain that Twitter works with various governments to censor things regionally. I don't see how they could operate in places like China, otherwise (they do operate in China, no?).
@Safdar Maybe you do, after all. That long list of associations with 101 XP makes it hard to tell.
13:43
@XanderHenderson I've shifted the parent to math..
@XanderHenderson Can you see that? It is currently hidden.
If I put in the effort, can I teach a cat or dog to do some arithmetic?
@Threnody Absolutely! How else do you expect to resolve Riemann?!
@XanderHenderson My intentions weren't RH, but to open a restaurant where animals can bring their families to eat. But of course, they need to know how to pay..
@Threnody I've heard of BYOB clubs, but bringing your family to eat seems a fair bit beyond that. Do they have chefs to prepare them?
13:58
@XanderHenderson prepare them?
@XanderHenderson Lmao.. that's not what I had in mind
@XanderHenderson Do you have a pet?
@Threnody I is certainly what your cat has in mind for you. Them little fuzzballs is ebil.
@Safdar I do not.
@XanderHenderson the average chinese citizen does not get access to twitter, even though some members of their government have twitter accounts
14:08
@XanderHenderson Nah.. I think the cats priority would be to rule in house. They need servants. The family acts as those servants. Getting a cat should be safe as long as you obey it.
14:22
@Safdar Did something happen (something like heated arguments or alike over twitter) for Dorsy to act like that? Personally, I never understand these religion things but who knows! It’s today only that my Indian friend made those remarks.
@Knight That is because it happened today.. There is a very large sense of nationalism flowing through India right now with the whole Indo-China stuff going on.. this is pretty much a side effect of that.
14:49
@Safdar Now, can you please shed some light on the psychological part of my question? (If any member have any problem please feel free to interrupt, I shall surely stop my irrelevant stuffs)
15:08
@Knight That is also the psychological part. Hindutva and nationalism is what drives the country right now. If you feel up to it, you could read the party manifesto of BJP (ruling party) which should give you a better idea.

@user21820 Where do you take a FENDER-BENDER?
@amWhy Isn't it a bit too late? Didn't the friday start 12 hours ago for you?
@user21820 To a FENDER-MENDER!! ;D
@Safdar Yup it technically did.
@amWhy For me In an hour it would be saturday. 12 hour time gaps..
@Safdar Enjoy your last hour of Friday! And then, HAPPY SATURDAY!
@amWhy Lol!
17:27
GENDER, OFFENDER
SPLENDOR
@amWhy That is a SLENDER time frame.
@Safdar Indeed!
nobody talked about slender? even after slander, weird.
@XanderHenderson :(
@Safdar The second came up when we talked about words that rhyme with Xander. See: chat.stackexchange.com/transcript/message/55175969#55175969
17:32
@amWhy So now it just has to end in DER??
or DOR
@Safdar Right now we're exhausting "---ender" (or words sounding like they end in ender).
Nobody wants an electric SANDER?
Did you like my joke above, @Xander? ;D
@amWhy nods
When will @Xander be an APPREHENDER of an OFFENDER on math.se?
More to the point, when will Xander first be a SUSPENDER of a math.se OFFENDER?
17:39
Haha.
@amWhy COMMANDER Xander. Is this fine @Xander?
@Safdar Not at all.
I clearly outrank a mere commander. :P
What does QUONDER mean? Whenever makes @quid PONDER
And when @quid ponders, it may lead to a QUANDARY.
Hello, dear @quid! ;D
@amWhy hello!
Already started the it's Friday celebrations?
17:56
@quid Indeed. An early "Happy hour" is fitting, in light of the fact that it won't be Friday much longer for some of this room's denizens!
@MartinSleziak switching while suspended won't help. Maybe that's clear anyway but the formulation is a little ambiguous maybe. cc @Safdar
@quid Even from direct parent site [like for voting irregularities]?
@Safdar if you get suspended on the site that is your chat parent the suspension is transmited to your chat user. It then is recorded on the chat user as a chat suspension and won't go away by switching.
@quid Where do you take a fender-bender? (Testing if you read my joke and response above).
@quid So if you get banned on any one site for a year, you're practically banned from Chat SE for that time period?
18:05
@amWhy to a fender-mender?
@Safdar no
@quid :P
@quid then?
@Safdar If suspended from your parent site, you are suspended from most chatrooms on SE, but not meta.se chats, nor I think SO chats.
@Safdar At any point in time you have designated one site as your chat parent. If you get suspended on that parent site, then the suspension is transmitted to your chat user. (Once it is transmitted it is valid and is unaffected by later changes.) If you get suspended on any other site is does not affect your chat user.
@amWhy So the avatar can now not only bend air, water, earth, and fire, but also fenders! Splendid
18:09
Take away point here, is strive to behave so as not to get suspended on any site.
@Safdar Is there anything you want to tell us about your voting irregularities?
@FadedGiant I was just asking. Do I have them?
We can neither confirm nor deny that our agency has any records matching your request.
@an4s Hah! I suspect so!
@FadedGiant Then I guess not.. the mods on SE would be the first to know.
18:12
In a way the way this is done is not very logical, but obviously just having an obscure chat parent does not make one immune to chat suspension as we can always suspend manualy.
Thus it's not that much of an issue.
@quid I was curious after seeing those Meta SE posts. Can't ask mods to ban me can I?
MANUAL ANNUAL BI-ANNUAL
@Safdar you can ask us, but why would you?
@quid Well, for scientific purposes on what exactly happens. Does it give you a message stating that you can't talk b/c you are banned? Stuff like that.
@Safdar You get a message for a site suspension. Wrt chat suspensions: No message is sent to you, but you learn immediately when you try to go to a chatroom, where in the text box in which you'd normally comment, you are informed that the account is suspended.
18:18
@Knight I'd say "Westerners" in the sense of the overwhelming part of the general population have no clue whatsoever about Indian politics. Maybe some know there is some problem in the Kashmir region but that's that. I don't mean this in any dismissive way but it just is not a subject in any way. (Maybe UK is different, not sure.)
@amWhy Hmm.. So what would be the reasons for a chat ban? High number of flags?
@Safdar It depends. And it depends on the moderators (who may be from any SE site) that handle any such flags.)
Anyway, it is a good idea to always behave well in any chatroom, and you shouldn't have to worry.
How do you become a chat mod? Are they just mods on an SE site?
@Safdar there are (short) automatic bans based on rude/spam flags; there are manual bans too.
@Safdar yes the chat moderators are the per site moderators (plus SE staff)
You can recognize them by their blue username in chat.
For example here Xander and I are "blue"
@quid That is a pretty subtle difference. I only noticed it when you pointed out.
18:23
Faded Giant too.
Even though they are from another site.
Btw @FadedGiant, is it fine to refer to you as Loong?
BLUE CLUE HUE DUE DEW CHEW, IMBUE...
In addition there is a the notion of "room owner."
@quid I'm not terribly blue; I'm actually moderately happy today.
@Safdar That's fine.
18:25
@XanderHenderson That's good, then you don't have the FLU, I take it.
DO, RUE, PEW, FEW, ESCHEW, CREW, DREW,
Their name is slanted; we don't have any here. As I own the room and being a mod trumps room owner for display.
amWhy <-- My name is slanted!
@amWhy I'm not ill. Just very, very tired.
@amWhy Actually it isn't unless it's not case sensitive.
@amWhy HEW JEW.
18:29
@quid What you talkin' about? YOU TOO TWO
Sorry I didn't intend to put those two words together.
I just happened to think of them one after another.
@amWhy well, well, well, I'll let you get away with it.

For the child in all of us:
I think the words could be adapted to describe what mods do to users who misbehave! ;D
But I feel traumatized. I learned this song while a very young girl scout, and always thought we were singing "Little Bunny FRoo FRoo"! :-/

Egg FU Young.
@XanderHenderson Indeed, like Kung FU!
Is the "fu" in egg fu young the same one as in kung fu?

@XanderHenderson cursorily it does not seem so.
@XanderHenderson You win the prize!
@quid Interesting. Any notes on the etymologies?
@amWhy Yay!
Question: is it too early in the day to start drinking?
20:32
@XanderHenderson kung fu seems to mean "hard work"
Addendum: I've been up since 3 am.
(in case it matters)
while fu young appears to mean hibiscus.
@quid Oh, that's inateresting!
Ugh... I'm so tired of packing my дерьмо into boxes... :(
And all the dust that is getting kicked up is hell my sinuses.
@Xander My treat!
Also 功夫 vs 芙蓉蛋 does not seem similar.

@quid Have you seen skullpatrol (or anytime recently
@quid Wow
22:10
Come to think of it, no I diidn't
@quid I think it's been awhile.
Indeed.
@quid I searched chat using their username, and it seems the last interaction with them came in May.

echo echo echo echo echo echo echo echo echo echo echo echo echo echo echo echo echo echo echo echo echo echo echo echo echo echo echo echo echo echo echo echo echo echo
We stop when it cannot fit into a single message; last poster wins.
Deal?
@quid sure!
(echo) \cdot F_{10}, where F_n denotes the n-th Fibonacci number
and \cdot denote string concatenation
or something
That's a bit odd.
The way @amWhy wrote it is more coherent.
22:26
(echo)^55
When cdot is string concatenation then echo cdot F_10 concatenates the string ecgo with the string F_10
It is not F_10 fold concatenation.
When writing echo so many times, it seems to become an oddly spelled word!
We need to finish the game properly.
No deviations. Just plain repetition.
Some discipline please. :-)

@XanderHenderson I'll make that known among your students.
@quid Code Golf is a strange and confusing land.
@quid Absolutely. If a student ever ends an not-quite-coherent-but-not-entirely-inchoate argument with "or something", I will happily give them credit.
@Xander I'm guessing @quid requires his students to write $x \cdot x \cdot x \cdot x \cdot x \cdot x\cdot x \cdot x \cdot x \cdot x$ instead of $x^{10}$
Also $1+1+1$ for $3$.
@quid Hah!
Okay, @quid. Type out $x^{47} + y^{61} + z^{78} = 10000000004670000000068200000000000045^{102}$.
22:51
$x^{47} + y^{61} + z^{78} = 10000000004670000000068200000000000045^{102}$
@quid :P Party pooper!!
@amWhy iwith something managable I might have played along but what do you want me to do about the right hand side?
@quid I wanted to make you suffer! ;D (Let me count the comments required...). It is countable, after all!.
Finite even.
@quid Indeed! So get to work on it!!
22:56
@amWhy I'd have no problem to write it, but SE can't store it.
@quid Well, then you're off the hook!
Instead, you can write out $x^{47} + y^{61} + z^{78} = 3$.
...And find all triplets $(x, y, z)$ that satisfy the equation!
$$S = \left\{ (x,y,z) : x^{47} + y^{61} + z^{78} = 3 \right\}$$
Done.

Found them all.
@XanderHenderson Hah! :P

$(0, 0, \sqrt[78]{3}) \in S$
