Y’know I was just sitting out on the veranda, sipping a cool beverage and musing, to myself, y’see, I was thinking there “Hey - what this planet needs is another ethnostate. I mean, really, another ethnostate with nuclear weapons would be ideal.”
And here we are. Boy sometimes everything’s comin’ up Milhouse.
religious fervor.
Modi takes his orders from Stephen Harper a wannabe autocrat who runs a shadowy organizations pushing the far right across the democratic world.
It’s why Pierre Poilievre doesn’t say anything bad about Modi and India, because they are both in Harper’s org.
And Russia is 1/10th the size of India and Putin is accused of manipulating people from dozens of different countries, including India. So I don’t see why that’s relevant. I have no clue if that person’s statement is right or wrong, mind you, just saying that population isn’t as important as other factors. Nigeria, Bangladesh, Congo, Ethiopia, etc. They’re all countries with 100+ mil people but they don’t hold much influence over other countries afaik.
Same reasons you don’t hear about most stuff that happens in most other places. Can you name 3 headlines from Italy from the past month? What about Japan? Australia? Philippines? There’ll be 1-2 every now and then but usually that’s about it. Because nless it’s a plane crash or some celebrity or something like that, you’ll never hear about most stuff that happens.
I didn’t mean you personally, I meant in general. Local news don’t reach most people internationally because most people aren’t actively looking for them and they’re not gonna be seen on international news because they’re not on international scale.
As yes, a news article saying “successful conservative abroad is seen as a model by Canadian conservatives” absolutely backs up the totally sane theory of an ex-Canadian PM running a network of authoritarians across some of the worlds most influential countries.
Maybe so. Still doesn’t change the fact that the parent is claiming a bizarre “Stephen Harper runs a global network of right wing world leaders” conspiracy theory and backing it up with an article that says nothing of the sort.
Gotta love Hindu nationalism…
Religious nationalism is so hot right now.

India, Israel, and Pakistan pretending to be functioning democracies with nukes
You need to add America to that list
Hold off until Jan when the new admin comes in. We haven’t yet finished circling the drain. Don’t want to call this stuff too early.
On the plus side my kids will be dual citizens soon.
Hmm good point. When I form my racist racist ethnostate I will have it concentrate on prions and drones, nukes are sooo last century.

This is laughable.
Yah, the former PM of a country 1/50th of the size of India is giving Modi orders.
What a load of lunacy.

Now that you reminded me why do we never hear news from those places ?

But i block all regional news /c/ and only have world news one unblocked.
I didn’t mean you personally, I meant in general. Local news don’t reach most people internationally because most people aren’t actively looking for them and they’re not gonna be seen on international news because they’re not on international scale.

I don’t make the stories.

“Fascist” is a more apt term for Modi than “successful conservative”.
Maybe so. Still doesn’t change the fact that the parent is claiming a bizarre “Stephen Harper runs a global network of right wing world leaders” conspiracy theory and backing it up with an article that says nothing of the sort.
You’re assuming Modi and BJP have India’s best interests at heart and aren’t just happy to have power in their hands by any means necessary.
Also BJP has suspiciously left IDU just before election year but their youth wing is still part of International Young Democrat Union.
