⚡ Men Can’t Be Feminists? | Manu Joseph on Privilege, PM Modi’s Decline & The India We Ignore 🔥 India is growing fast — economically, culturally, globally. Yet on the ground, millions remain unseen. In this probing conversation, Manu Joseph joins Roshan Cariappa to break down the ideas we rarely confront directly — why the poor stay invisible, why caste still determines destiny, why male feminism is contradictory, and why even towering political figures eventually lose emotional pull. This episode is a mirror — uncomfortable at times, but necessary. No outrage. No worship. Just clarity. ⸻ ⏱ Chapters 00:00 – 01:15 • Introduction 01:15 – 07:30 • Why India’s poor remain invisible 07:30 – 13:30 • Aspiration, class & the new middle Indian 13:30 – 20:00 • Has PM Modi’s emotional pull declined? 20:00 – 27:10 • Caste: The ladder still standing 27:10 – 33:40 • Men & feminism: The contradiction 33:40 – 41:20 • Morality, guilt & the Indian elite 41:20 – 49:00 • Cinema, storytelling & uncomfortable truth 49:00 – 56:00 • Why India fears honesty more than hardship 56:00 – 01:03:20 • Closing reflections — The India we ignore ⸻ 👉 If you enjoy conversations that don’t perform, but reveal — subscribe to Bharatvaarta.
