>He (M.K.Stalin) is your predecessor, not your predator.
Very well written as usual. He always talks to the point crystal clear.

u/Strange-Occasion7592 May 06 '26
Wikileaks about 70's Stalin says otherwise.
•
u/Dark_king13 May 07 '26
Oh, I read it to. It doesn't make any sense or it's backed up by any Valid sources. And I read one too where Vijay was prominent in Casting Couch in his chocolate boy days. And it didn't make sense with lack of evidence. Stop with whatsapp forwards and focus on Facts with solid sources.
•
u/vigmooo May 06 '26
I hope Vijay has the mindset to consider all these aspects instead of simply delivering dialogues in front of the mic and cameras.

Karunanidhi was the most intellectual, Annadurai was most aptly educated for the position. Worst was kamaraj followed by emg-yaar. Ignoring all the other kutti-chattans.

The credit for building schools should go to ND Sundarvadivelu, the holy soul not Kamaraj, he was for all reasons a charlatan utter disaster for entire south india. SI is till paying the price by tribute and wealth extraction with zip zero political rights. He was instrumental in being subservient to the idea of installing a kleptocracy in Delhi and signing away the rights to them. Only the naive and uninformed and prone to propaganda would fall for this idea that somebody who decided not to learn how to read and write for atleast half a century of adult life brought education to the masses. Except for Tamil Sithalls and opium dealers and their cohorts nobody has any kind words for Kamaraj

Oh my god. This is what everyone who voted for vijay has to think of. Accept and appreciate criticism, makes changes and lead tamilnadu to the next level. There are lot to learn in terms of economic growth and state empowerment from DMK too. Hope Vijay does them all with grace.
What a message, salut!

If only Arsene Wenger had written a open letter like this to Arteta, but alas it is too late and we're in the haramball endgame now...

I will believe it when you finish the tough fixtures (matches against the 2 relegation teams)
Sorry bro 😂

Freebies are plenty which can't be managed. State will doom you with burden of ₹2Lakh Crores/year. It's not cinema style kuruvi குருவி!
•
u/Dark_king13 May 07 '26
Let's stop with the words like freebies. We are in a Socialist country (as per constitution) and the tax should go back to people to uplift them towards equal status.

u/SeaMammoth3514 May 06 '26
I seriously doubt Vijay has the intellectual capacity to understand this letter. Come on, what do you expect from someone whose entire career is memorizing lines, dancing, and lip-syncing with zero creative input his whole life? If he had Vijaykanth’s heart for doing good, zero ego, and the sense to take advice from senior bureaucrats, then maybe he could deliver on his promises. But looking at his core political team, I highly doubt it.
•
u/bssgopi May 06 '26
I have serious doubts on the intellectual capacity of Vijay's fanatics. This is well established and can be proved multiple times.
But, if my assessment of him is right, I have zero doubts on Vijay's intellect. He might look shy and introverted, or dramatic and explosive when in character. But every single decision he has taken has been extremely calculative and structured towards a goal he wanted to reach. So, he is an extremely smart minded person.
It is the blind gullible fanbase that concerns me. With an army to fight for him anytime, he is given too much power that is being misused at the cost of the same fanbase. This is where things have fallen to unfortunately.

And Stalin does? People here are living in their own bubble and underestimating Vijay. And no one wants to accept that they're in a bubble too
•
u/Dark_king13 May 07 '26
You're the one in a Bubble, my friend. Vijay has never strongly stood for Tamilnadu people. All people can remember are his "DMK oru theeyasakthi". Give me something he stood and fought for something till the end instead of just getting some headlines in the news.
•
u/iamGobi May 07 '26 edited May 07 '26
> You're the one in a Bubble,
When the entire sub was saying TVK won't win seats, I said this last month even before Pondicherry election polling. https://www.reddit.com/r/TamilNadu/comments/1s7xc1z/comment/odmifzv/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button
But yeah sure, i'm the one in bubble.
Also, my point was only "Does stalin have the intellectual capacity to understand this? Forget about understanding, he can't even read this". Even if translated, he can't understand. That was my only point, idk why you're bringing up Vijay never stood for TN people. Bro he's just coming to power, he was doing his profession before. He did his profession good, whereas Stalin on the other hand....
•
u/Dark_king13 May 07 '26
Wow, Astrologist was right once in Blue moon and he's now the most powerful astrologer ever.
I said Vijay is weak and you're defending him. Right this moment when you typed this. TN Governor has not invited Vijay to become CM. All of Opposition is saying this is wrong. What did TVK say? Nothing. (Majority Govt form panitu 6 months kulla Assembly la prove pana pothum. Governor ku prove pana thevai illa) Also, There's something called Spine, my friend. He's weak.
But hey, You're I'm the one in a Bubble for telling you, you're in a bubble. Cheers bud.

I Hope, Vijay received this Message and read it or People around him explained this .Let's hope for Best
•
u/ChickenKebabs69 May 06 '26
Wow. This is what everyone including me who has voted for him hopes so. It was out of emotions but let's believe, hope he will do the necessary things for TN and continue with the good schemes that are already in place

Nice letter... Let this decency continue in tamil nadu and spread across the world

•
u/puyalbao May 08 '26

Its time India moves away from the baggage of what leaders did around 1947
The moment someone says something like this, you are deliberately destroying the intellectual foundation needed to understand politics.
Any decision made on any subject should be an informed one. That information on that subject comes from reading history of that subject. That historical context is what people miss.
So, the baggage of 1947 is what made India. As long as that idea of India persists, that baggage has to be carried.

100%. If he was not born in the legacy family. He woild have been half naked sleeping with dogs on the streets.
•
u/intermittent-visitor May 06 '26
Everything is valid point except bringing up the point about religion. Could've omitted.
•
u/Coolwave97 May 06 '26
I disagree. This clearly highlights people will support u irrespective of ur religion, especially in today's situation.
•
u/Kingslayer1526 May 06 '26
I think that is pretty interesting because it actually shows TN is already secular and does not care about the religion of the CM
•
u/Individual-Body1033 May 07 '26
To Intellects in reddit, who thinks people as brainless. Just go out of ur home and see the rural and poor people, Their lives r still same & not changed in last 10 yrs. The said TN GDP % or growth has not benefitted them because of Corruption and Scam.
At least lets give opportunity to fresh person.
•
u/bssgopi May 07 '26

Please explain how TVK and Vijay are the solution to this.

u/Individual-Body1033 May 08 '26
Let u stay happily in garbage and don’t let anyone to clean it. 🙂
Why not to the Fresh guy, let him learn and do.
•
u/bssgopi May 08 '26

Ever heard of The Broken Window Theory
What guarantee do you have that the fresh guy is not there to litter more?

u/Sensitive_Tangerine5 May 07 '26
How about all the legal battles he was thrown into and mudslinging done by DMK? Obviously Vijay should take a leaf out of Bible and turn the other cheek?
•
u/bssgopi May 07 '26
Hold on...
Legal cases are a consequences of one's action. Objectively argue and come out of it.
Mudslinging went both ways. When DMK focused primarily with opposing the ADMK and the BJP, TVK chose to attack DMK exclusively. That's how politics works, unfortunately.
Now, that phase has been crossed. He is about to sit in an administrative position. This requires certain humility, groundedness and maturity.
This is no more about Vijay or DMK. It is about the people of Tamil Nadu. They deserve better government.
