Twitter CEO Dorsey sparks India social media stormTwitter CEO Jack Dorsey has been accused of inciting hate against India’s highest caste after being photographed holding a poster declaring “smash Brahminical patriarchy” during a visit to the country. Dorsey was snapped holding the offending poster alongside six women who participated in a discussion last week on the role of Twitter in India, where caste is a flashpoint issue and grievances can turn violent. “Do you realise that this picture has potential of causing communal riots at a time when several States are going to Assembly Elections in India,” tweeted Indian police officer Sandeep Mittal.
