• Indians were kept from entering politics or public life
• After the British gov take over in 1858, the British gov seeked to not only have direct control instead of a company's control, but also direct control instead of letting Indians have control

• The East India Company used excuses to violate treaties and conquer more land
• Ex: In 1856, the British took Nawab Wajid Ali Shah's territory on grounds that he was weak and immoral

• British took taxes from peasants without letting Indian previous positions of power interfere
• Peasants had to take out loans from moneylenders
• Peasants who couldn't pay their loans would have to give up their land

Along with peasants, other sectors of the Indian population were not happy with British rule:

• Indian people who once had much power and property
• Indian business people who lost a lot of power in the newly British economy

• The many revolts that made up the 1857 Rebellion were usually for specific villages or small areas for the inhabitants there

• The peasant Devi Singh made his own gov based on the British way of governing with a peasant army that went after the moneyloaners hated by peasants in debt
• This may be evidence for the idea that the main sticking point for Indian peasants was the cultural and taxation policies of the British instead of the administrative part

• The British government took over ruling India instead of the EIC in 1858
• Perhaps the British government took over ruling India instead of the East India Company because after the uprising, ruling over colonial states was viewed as a more militant and political task than an economic one.

• People originally in power in colonized territories striking a deal with the colonizers for their benefit is a common pattern

• The British started off trying to control just India's trade by setting trading posts on the ocean
• Around the early 1800s, the East India Company conquered many areas in India and surrounding areas

Economic control -> political, military control

• The East India Company, as a for-profit, wanted to be able to do business without restrictions in India.
• The best way to guarantee this was to gain political alliances (by paying the Mughal emperor to let them trade), then starting in the second half of the 1700s, control (by later actually conquering areas) of territories.

The first half of the 1800s saw:

• the disappearance of original Indian positions of power
• the disappearance of original Indian state boundaries and sovereignties in 1848 by governor-general Lord Dalhousie

This is also kind of true of e.g. Buddhism and many other spiritual traditions: they don't have a very thought out socio-political vision. Instead they have an advanced form of the "personal is political". I suspect this is part intentional, part accidental. Getting involved in critiques of capitalism, at least at a detailed level, tends to get political quickly and getting political in general a) risks obsolescence (and being wrong) b) risks alienating potential participants c) risks being wrong (and dangerously wrong, e.g. being misused to justify, say, authoritarianism).

All that said, I think this is a major lacunae both of Integral and spiritual traditions.

An interesting example with some inflamatory rhetoric, but coupled with his resignation which is all he has left...

I agree with this one on how Americans will typically wear a mask because it is one of the precautions but those who are more on the "I'll just follow what the president says" (political)side which is Trump thinking wearing a mask is not a necessity then others who may support him will think the same. Some but not all.
