    They almost made that superpower by 2020, but now it’s looking like they’re moving backwards.

    Idk what happened, but it’s not good. They probably got too greedy and wanted to rush to the finish line, only to stumble before the end and fall flat on their faces.

        You’re generalizing too much, so many Hindus have spoken against him and OTOH there are also Muslims like Shehla Rashid who became turncoats or have stayed silent.

          Agree on generalizing, I made a huge shortcut. But his popularity ratings have never been so high

        Saving Indian minorities is well below having a counterbalance to China on the Western priority list, unfortunately. Realpolitik strikes again.

        If this goes far enough China could actually be easier to deal with, long-term. I hope they’ve thought of that.

        Considering the prophet’s proclivities for 8 year olds, I thought this law would appease the muslims in India
