With so much happening in this country, any new wacky thing, honestly, doesn't surprise anyone that much at this point.

We already know that Valentine's Day is the favourite day of a certain group of people because they think they have all the rights to go and harass couples who are out in public minding their own business. 

The moral police go and marry them off because just being in public with your significant other is somehow personally offending their own ideologies.

Well, why not take it a step further and basically just boycott Valentine's Day? That's what a lot of people seem to be advocating for on Twitter right now as #ValentinesDay_MisleadingYouth is trending since Tuesday morning.

Wanting to replace Valentine's Day with Parents Worship Day, some people are trying to follow Asaram Bapu's ideologies because they think celebrating a day like that is morally corrupting the young generation.

At it again, extreme right-wing elements forcibly 'marrying' off young couple they found in park in Medchal #Telangana; Whose morality are they imposing and what emboldens them to continue to act like 'social goons'?

Sant Shri Asharamji Bapu website says, "My dear young people and their parents! You are born on the pious land of India. You are the descendants of farsighted rishis. Shun ‘Valentine’s day’ which, in the name of love, debilitates the youth. O parents and their children! Love each other beholding the Lord in the other one and let your hearts be filled with Divine Joy. Not the false joy of ***, but the Joy of God, the Love of God and Bliss of God." 

'Yeah, *** is cool, but have you ever experienced the joy of God?' I know this is a popular meme format, but saying this without any irony is so hilarious.
