An anti-climax! My mother is divine?

Like a Kumbhakarn, I woke up to write here after long.

Today someone posted in an internet forum of a leadership network, a link to a rant titled My Mother is an Ugly Woman and after reading the long write up I was a bit disturbed for sometime by the writer's own confession as quoted below.

"But I have difficulty when the educated, the well-to-do, the ones who have everything going for them, mentally defecate, trying to impress the world at the cost of their own country."

After sometime time, when my mind took over the heart, I started thinking what an anti-climax to such a great opportunity lost by the Indian speaker in the afternoon to completely rectify the fallacies of the Indian speaker in the morning.

If an educated, well-to-do Indian like the speaker in the afternoon cannot take on his counter-part to rectify the mistake of misrepresenting his own country on the same platform, what can a disadvantaged Indian who is seeing his mother(land) raped repeatedly can do about it?

I am sure the answer from many "evolved Indians" would be that as true Indians believing in Vedic traditions, we leave the situtation to the laws of Karma and let the sinner to be taken care by the respective devata eventually. Probably the speaker in the afternoon despite his own confession had the same in mind and hence let go the opportunity to rectify the mis-representation of India in the morning when his turn arrived in the afternoon?
