Someone asked me recently if I could think of any country that's suffered a greater hit to its reputation from being connected to the internet than India.
It went from being known by most people for spirituality, yoga, and great food to being associated with scam calls, online sex pests, and delusional nationalists.
it's partially Indian people's fault for referring to themselves as "Indian" first instead of their actual ethnicity
if someone asks me what ethnicity I am I'd always just say Marathi/Tamil/etc first. Not my fault if they're too dumb to know what that is
One just needs to look at the difference between India and China to compare the effectiveness of capitalism and socialism. Socialism seems to be winning by a landslide.

Not true. First thing they did after the election was over was raise road tax and the price of milk.

lul, mayo video
more inequality than under british rule
okay, so why haven't I seen 30 million dead West Bengalis, you stupid cracker?
I swear, crackers and their pets, even the succdem ones, sometimes seem like they're ACTIVELY TRYING to bring about some kind of Indian fascism.
You could've just kept it at minority rights and inequality, stupid-ass religious fanaticism, and Modi cringe, but nah you had to sneak in some mayo cope about how brits were better even though they starved over 10 million Indians of various ethnicities (mostly Bengali)
It's analogous to saying that blacks were better off under slavery lmfao. stupid ass goris
I only know about Australian politics from this channel
