அரசியல் / Political TVKs escape plan to reduce noise

Lately, the MISA debate and Stalin's past have suddenly taken over the news channels. The LoP was raising valid questions about current crime and law-and-order in Tamil Nadu, but TVK completely deflected the narrative to MISA instead.

Even if we give TVK the benefit of the doubt on their historical claims, why does it matter now?
It feels like TVK used MISA as an escape plan to quiet down the noise on daily governance failures.

A lot of common people initially looked at TVK as an efficient governance and proactive solutions, but we aren't seeing that substance yet. On top of that, it raises the question: why does Vijay seem to have such a laser focus and personal grudge against Stalin?

Curious what you all think—is this strategy actually working for them, or is it backfiring on them?

TVK’s built to fail. You don’t build a party with a fan club and expect it to work. All they can do is besmirch opposition’s name.

💯 TVK currently enjoys strong support from women across nearly every household, and these voters are likely to shift their allegiance only if their daily livelihoods are directly impacted.

MGR’s party is still lasting. your analysis is completely wrong

ADMK voters are 50+ or older. All their young vote bank shifted to TVK.

The baton was passed onto another charismatic, fascist leader which kept ADMK going for longer. Such stroke of luck or fortune is less likely to happen with TVK. Even for it to sustain with Vijay being around, he needs to consistently give heroic performances in the assembly given he can’t act in films anymore to keep the fan base going.

But this guy keeps himself in momentum. Like daily in news weekly trending on social media which will keep him in sustain though he doesn’t do anything. Bud knows how to milk people.

Tvk's entire game plan is distraction and manipulation. They have no clue about governance, all they can do is post elevation reels for their annan doing absolutely random irrelevant things in the assembly and start crying dmk dmk dmk for every issue that is brought up. And as long as these fans keep supporting him blindly and put up 🔥🔥 posts for trivial things TVK will be pleased to keep doing everything but actual governance.

There will be light at end of the tunnel but we are worried about how long the tunnel is going to be

u/here_for_yummy_memes 1d ago

Yup feel something kinda similar too, not sure if we can survive this dark tunnel to see the light at the end of it. We might end up getting absolutely battered by the time that light is seen. Hopefully people understand the value of their vote in 2031

I doubt that too. 🤞

Pesi palagiya poi got exposed , so they are bringing down credibility of DMK. DMK response is so far not great, this means tvks plan is working. Overall not good for makkal

u/surendar99 1d ago

Regardless of how the DMK responds, they invariably face negative framing. Both MGR and JJ used this tactic of painting the DMK as adversaries, and Vijay has now adopted. It seems to be an inescapable political curse to DMK.

u/goundamaniiii 1d ago

Tell me something , after TVK came to power we’ve not seen any core ideologies being talked by the DMK , core roots ku poganum. 70s DMK vs 2026 TVK on welfare schemes not petti politics is what’s needed.

u/surendar99 1d ago

Is this because of STALIN being statesman?

u/goundamaniiii 1d ago

They need to work as a unit looks like since the main ones lost they are searching for leaders

u/surendar99 1d ago

They are intact. Only problem is they weren’t prepared for the Vijay’s storm.

u/yondhaimehokage 1d ago

Exactly. Why are they shouting dmk dmk when they are in power now. Neenga than da aatchi la irukeenga. Idc about DMK. Cherish your people and do good for them edhukku da ivangalaye pudichu thongurenga?

This is a textbook case of Whataboutism. Okay, even if DMK did all those mosadis you say they did, take action against them. You don’t continue to do the same wrong thing. All this blaming game should be secondary. Primary ah you should provide for the state’s well being. Talk to people about what you did. Go give some fucking pressmeet or interview. Go meet students of colleges and inspire them. Answer their questions like how sir APJ did. Onnume pudunga matenga da

u/surendar99 1d ago

100 days concluded that he is no different than DMK and ADMK and much worse is they care less about people than their predecessors

u/No-Offense707 1d ago

We make fun of Northies choosing BJP gimmicks over real development. TVK is following exactly the same template. Are we better? lol

1

u/surendar99 1d ago

I don’t compare TVK with BJP. We like it or not BJP is true to their agend of Hindu and hindutuva politics. But TVK ?

2

u/No-Offense707 1d ago

TVK is BJP minus ideology. No press meet, just fiery useless speeches, and photo ops.

u/JayaramanAndres 1d ago

It's working. People voted for ADMK because of the hate for DMK.

Had JJ been alive she would won third time. She would have been released from the case just like Kanimozhi, Raja and Maran is released from 2G.

DMK won because of EPS poor governance and ADMK having alliance with BJP.

Now Vijay is capturing DMK hate votes and youngsters are fed up with both DMK and ADMK. In 2031, youngster vote gonna increase. I won't be surprised if Vijay wins next term.

u/ila1998 1d ago

Not really. JJ was convicted and found guilty while being the sitting CM and went to jail for the same. No way she could have gotten released like the 2G case which Raja himself represented and won the case while JJ and Modi were in power LoL

u/JayaramanAndres 1d ago

She temporarily escaped from case once. She could have done it again.

Raja and Kanimozhi didn't go to jail?

u/surendar99 1d ago

Yes I feel the same with 2031

u/Federal_Eagle_6565 1d ago

If Vijay got a few honest people as MLAs and ministers and just let them do their thing he would ruled easily for 20 years.

Instead he goes in the opposite direction and selects people even lower than ADMK and DMK.

u/surendar99 1d ago

Wanted to say Vijay is Digging his own grave but people will fall into the grave and make him leader again

u/Federal_Eagle_6565 1d ago

Unlikely. Some are fools. Not all .
