The whole state started as a socialistic state because 90% of muslims were serfs due to feudal british allied hindu king. The first leader of the state was a pro freedom from both india and pakistan, secular and socialist. He also did the most successful land redistribution reform here to curb the serfdom which led to a rise in QoL factors here. Pic related, the socialist red flag of the state but post 70s socialism completely fell off in kashmir due to various factors including the soviet invasion of Afghanistan

Assuming you're genuine, kudos for doing this.
Are people who are active in any kind of left organizing subject to Indian state repression there? The last update I saw about Kashmir reported that the internet was cut off or closely monitored there. Do you speak freely about left politics on messaging apps and other internet channels?

There are hardly any protests past these years ever since 2019 and India's shift towards Hindu Nationalism. It's completely 1984 like. We had two independent online news site in Kashmir. One of them was shut down recently by the regime and the editor jailed for 3-4 years without a trial (through a law called UAPA) for a 12 year old article which was pro freedom.
>The last update I saw about Kashmir reported that the internet was cut off or closely monitored there. Do you speak freely about left politics on messaging apps and other internet channels?

Oh no. You cannot talk against indian regime if you're not anon. They'll just file an UAPA case on you which can have you arrested without a trial for years. In fact, they also have circulars stating that anyone working locally with the government (doctor, engineer, etc) cannot post online any criticism of the ruling regime. I'm not talking about pro freedom statements but general criticisms. It's a complete nightmarish shutdown here. Pic related

The earliest and popular pro freedom writer was a Kashmiri Hindu Communist. You wouldn't know this because you are historically illiterate. He coined the term, "Kashmir for Kashmiris". "Bharat" is not a communist state, it's a hindu nationalist hellhole. I'm not a communist as well. I'm a leftist.

Coming into supporting "India" against the West question. It makes even lesser sense to support India. China is right there as a communist anti West country. Shouldn't I support China and not India. Why would supporting India make sense there if you're so worried about CIA etc? China is a ten times superior option. They're also a world power unlike India

That's something Indian leaders promote every week but they haven't started as of yet. At most we have military encampments as we are the world's most militarized zone. The military harasses people, uses them as human shields, does extrajudicial murders, takes away their belongings etc. there's also a lot a fetishization of us.

There's a new group PAFF which has islamist origins clearly but they all the lingo and messaging they have adopted is purely leftist. I guess they have realised that it has been a long time since Afghanistan and the newer generation is not that much interested in islamism and it won't work well with the global solidarity movements either. So they are islamists larping as leftists but that's still a good thing which means even islamists have realised that the newer generation is trending leftwards.
The other group is TRF.

I know next to nothing about anything including about Kashmir. As far as I understood, it's a region administered by Pakistan and India, with a joint administration region. But by the way you write, it seems that what you mean by Kashmir it's mostly an Indian administered (dominated) area?

How is it living in Kashmir? What do people believe? What do people do for fun on their spare time? What is the food like? What's a weird superstition people believe in, like walking under stairs is bad luck? What are the general attitude of people towards politics? How big is the leftist movement?

>What's a weird superstition people believe in, like walking under stairs is bad luck?
Not eating fish from a spring
>What are the general attitude of people towards politics?
Pro freedom parties aren't allowed to contest elections and they form the largest base here which brings down the voting percentage a lot and those who vote, largely vote begrudgingly for the lesser evil.
>How big is the leftist movement?
Fell down post 90s because of the soviet invasion of Afghanistan and killing/torturing by India but it's rising amongst the youth hence >>1846267
Also, I'm from Indian Occupied Kashmir. Pakistan side of Kashmir never actually had people of Kashmiri ethnicity. In Muzaffarabad side, they're paharis ane Gilgit-Baltistan side, they're Gilgitis and Baltis. Kashmir has a lot more ethnicities than just Kashmiris. Indian Occupied side is where the main Kashmir valley and where the most ethnic Kashmiris reside

Yes, some India and some abroad. Not a lot of choices there. One of my friends internet company had heavy losses due to Indias incessant internet shutdowns. Same for some other friends. If there was free travel then people would've chosen China or Pakistan more
>Also I've found it interesting that J&K has above average HDI compared to other Indian states despite all the state repression.
We had one of the lowest hdis back then but the land redistribution changed everything for the best plus due to the little autonomy we had before 2019, Indians couldn't buy and settle in Kashmir even when we had no elected governments but that changed post 370 abrogation in 2019. It had kept the land prices low and poor people had an easier access in buying and owning their own land. But that's changed now, economic indicatore have worsened post 2019 370 abrogation.

Very very few in Kashmir, but they have taken most of the local tenders and resources. They have a monopoly on sand mining now and they're destroying the environment doing so. They also have increased axing of forests. More people have settled in Jammu. In ladakh they won't because the climate is very harsh but the rest of the story regarding resources is similar and even if it isn't by now, it will be soon
