  • subtlelity and religious extremeism?

    Hindu extremeism is the religious extremeism of India's majoritarian religion fuelling hate & fear of Muslims & Christians.

    This stuff is tame compared to what Modi's IT cell (modi and his political party's army of paid social media trolls) usually puts up on social media, and that stuff is tame compared to the violent hatespeeches publicly given by Hindu extremeist leaders, including Modi, targetting Muslims and Christians.

    India has national elections next year, and the corrupt Hindu extremeist dictator Modi and his political party are terrified of losing, so all India is braced not just for an uptick in violent images & hatespeeches but for actual genocide of Indian Muslims & Christians. The ethnic & communal genocide of Indian Kuki-Zo tribes (mostly Christians) by Hindu Meiteis in Manipur that started on May 3rd'23 has been transformed into a bloody civil war which India's Modi govt has taken no steps to stop.

  • Govts in India create large and expensive infra projects based on what the current political party, bureaucracy, private companies, international banks/ funding agencies want. Project sustainability, cost, environmental feasibility, land rights of the indigenous residents, fragility & biodiversity of the hills don't matter.

    The first Teesta III dam was destroyed in an earthquake, as this is a seismically active zone. Environmnetal and technical experts warned against building the 2nd Tessta III dam (this one that has burst), because of the danger that any of the 313 glacial lakes upstream were growing larger due to theglacier melting and would burst in a GLOF incident (which just happened). Sikkimese people who had lived for generations in the hills were displaced, their land rights ignored, and the unique fragile biodiversity of the land laid to waste. Yet, India's enviromental ministry gave it the go-ahead and the project is classified as a green, clean and renewable energy. The Teesta III project also cost more than the GDP of the state of sikkim where it is/was located.

  • Money makes the world go round. If they think they can make money, western democracies will support any dictator and refuse to
    take any action against the dictatorship. Only when their investments are in danger, will corporates & the world stop treating a dictator and his religious extremeist fuelled dictatorship with kid gloves.

    eg : What sanctions has China faced for its genocide of Uyghurs? Even now the west refuses to sanction companies that do business with/in Russia, despite the very clear evidence of genocide of Ukrainians.

  • The NYT knowingly (an Indian journalist warned them of the consequences to Indian journalism before they published) put out a hitpiece on newsClick, an unbiased and independent news source in a country whose mainstream media is captured by the dictatorial Hindu extremeist govt.

  • The New York Times failed to include PSF’s categorical denial of foreign funding, and instead left readers to believe that the source of PSF’s funding (or Roy’s for that matter) might have come from China, rather than from the sale of ThoughtWorks. Their salacious headlines and misleading ‘reporting’ have now directly contributed to the arrest of innocent journalists.

    Given the repression that is now taking place, it begs the question as to whether India is a safe place for foreign investors who carefully follow Indian law.

  • You also dont think India needs any international goodwill because USA needs it to fight China, so India can around assassinating foreign citizens at will.

    There's either some fucked up thinking going on or you're trying to dwnplay and minimize the impact of India's planned & organized assassination of a foreign national.

  • I can't describe how absolutely idiotic your comment makes you look.

    Indian diplomats, ambassadors, Prime Ministers, Presidents, politicians, workers (both blue & white collar), some corporates have worked hard for 75+ years to create goodwill for India abroad. This goodwill earns India opportunities for import-export business, FDI, employment, study scholarships, diplomatic support, emergency support (remember the medical equipment & oxygen supplies foreign countries sent over during covid?), emergency food imports, co-operation in finding escaped criminals, tourism including medical tourism.

    If you think India can wreck hell around the world and assassinate whoever it wants to because US needs it against China, then you are mistaken. India'll end up marked as a terrorist nation and will be sanctioned.

  • I understand very well what they're saying and what you're doing. The chant they're using is the chant used by violent Hindu supremacists to incite fear and hate in India's minority religions.

    Hindu supremacists use that chant as a battle cry while inciting & commiting acts of communal violence to terrorise India's minority religions (primarily, Muslims & Christians). They force Indian Muslims to say their chant and then lynch them to death. They used it while they burned Australian missionary doctor Graham Staines and his 2 little boys alive.

    Islamic terrorists like ISIS misused 'Allahu Akbar' for the same purpose, to inspire hate & terror.

    You are minimizing this act of terror by Hindu supremacists in Australia and by doing so are supporting Hindu extremeism in Australia.
