Rules:

Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

Narendra Modi is a democratically elected leader, but his image is that of a leader who decimated opposition and dissent — in Parliament or on university campuses.

You can find them all on all credible news on India since 2014.

Ah ok, very convincing, can't debate that.

Sounds a lot like qanon folks, I can't give you sources, you have to do your own research!

Your ignorance is your own responsibility, not anyone else’s. This isn’t some far fetched conspiracy, there is ample mainstream news discussing the current Modi government. Any media organisation will have covered the events in Kashmir when it happened years ago; as well as Modi continually stoking Hindu violence on other religious groups.

It's ok, bro. Maybe they're new to Indian politics and just want to know.

Let's give'em the benefit of the doubt, yeah? plus I got to list out all the English-language resources that everyone can access to gain knowledge on how crony capitalism & Hindu supremacy has fucked India up.

I'd have to list every news report on India & Modi govt from these news sources since 2014:
In English

  1. theguardian.com
  2. caravanmagazine.com
  3. thewire.in
  4. ndtv (before august 2022, it was captured by Adani, Modis favoured capitalist)
  5. quint ( before march 2023, it too was bought by Adani, Modi's favoured capitalist)
  6. scroll.in
  7. newsclick.in
  8. newslaundry.com
  9. indianexpress.com
  10. the hindu (before 2020 and after feb 2023. During the gap years, it was headed by a Hindu supremacist & modi loyalist)
  11. washingtonpost
  12. morningcontext
  13. indiacable
  14. Hindutvawatch
  15. Adaniwatch
  16. thenewsminute.com
  17. SouthFirst.com
  18. Bloomberg.com
  19. Ft.com
  20. article-14.com
  21. BBC.com

All mainstream media has been captured by Modi, so the one's listed are all online. Indian express too is captured, but the editorial board fights back in its editorials. if you want the Indian version of Qanon, just check out India's mainstream media (in print and on tv), they'll put Fox & friends to shame.

Do you want the ones in regional languages?
