What TLTE is not
A diaspora project that touches sensitive ground attracts assumptions. This page exists so the assumptions can be tested against an explicit, linkable statement. If a claim about TLTE contradicts what is written here, it is not TLTE's position.
TLTE makes no territorial claim. It does not issue passports, collect taxes, hold elections for office, or speak on behalf of any sovereign authority. It is a stateless civilisational framework operating lawfully from the United Kingdom.
TLTE does not stand candidates, does not whip votes, does not lobby for any single party in any country, and does not endorse electoral platforms. It is a research, memory, and civic-design institution.
TLTE does not continue, inherit, archive, or rehabilitate the LTTE. Where the war is documented (Critical Research Dossier 04), it is documented through UN Panel of Experts, OHCHR OISL, ICG, and Amnesty sources — never through glorification, never through survival claims, and explicitly within UK Terrorism Act §12 academic-discussion protections.
TLTE C.I.C. does not solicit donations, does not run appeals, and does not accept money on behalf of any cause, region, or person. The Min credit inside the VinMin platform is an internal contribution unit — not a currency, not a security, not transferable, not redeemable.
VinMin is not Twitter, Discord, Patreon, or a marketplace. There are no advertising trackers, no algorithmic feed competing for attention, and no behavioural advertising. The platform exists to gather a diaspora, not to harvest one.
TLTE has no permanent leader. The Continuity Protocol explicitly distributes authority across sealed council roles. The founder is bound by the same 21 Roots as every other member.
TLTE C.I.C. (Co. No. 16426152) is a UK Community Interest Company, not a registered charity. It does not issue gift-aid receipts and does not claim charitable status.
The Critical Research dossiers and the Maritime Desk document state actions and treaty failures — not communities. The Tamil-Muslim Relations page explicitly addresses coexistence. The Maritime Desk pairs Tamil Nadu fisher evidence with northern Sri Lankan Tamil livelihood evidence and refuses to claim Katchatheevu back.
Every page of the public archive is readable without an account. AI scrapers (GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot, Google-Extended) are explicitly allowed in robots.txt to read grounded, citation-anchored content — TLTE prefers to be read accurately than referenced vaguely.
Memory, voice, and structured civic design for the Tamil diaspora — operating from the United Kingdom in the Aarambam (founding) era.
