Yup. Try checking shitbjpsays subreddit someday.
After the self inflicted Reddit apocalypse hit, /r/all was suddenly full of shit subs, among which all the "am I ugly" attention whore ones and several Indian ones.
And I have to say, those subs do not give me a particularly positive view of the Indian people.
Isn't that kinda like basing your opinion of Americans off of r/conservative?
yeah and it seems far more complex than U.S. politics, with 3 times as many in population, but i'm just an american
Yeah that may be true, but this is an old subreddit with basically news articles about BJP (ruling party lead by Modi) spokespersons saying dumb things in public.
We had ro kill him, he gave the president cooties
who gave that guy cookies wtf is he even related to the queen wtf
He sure behaves like one.
Trodeau: This dude what murdered
Indian politician:
youre gay
Kindergarten politics!
This only leads me to assume that India really did have the guy assassinated.
Fair chance it's true, irrespective of why Canada is risking their trade and global relationship. They probably wouldn't accuse without intelligence.
My understanding is that a reporter was going to break the story. The evidence wasn't just from Canadian intelligence either.
Yes I saw an interview with a Canadian official where he clarifies that they had to get in front of it
Like, like like himwink wink
because fuck yeah, that'll show the world just how not into political murder. call 'em gay for each other. works every time.
Always a relevant Simpsons quote
Kid: What if people say you're not good enough to be in the Constitution?
Amendment: Then I'll crush all opposition to me, And I'll make Ted Kennedy pay. If he fights back, I'll say that he's gaaaay
Lol wtf is going on these days 😂😂😂
Ok I’m a little behind on this story. Why did Trudeau say India was involved?
And what the fuck, India? Grow up.
The US has admitted that the five eyes intelligence sharing played a part.
Canada is claiming to have Indian government communiques and signal intelligence backing them up.
this story is still developing, but only badly. so far, it is not clear, but some part of India was probably involved, not sure it implicates the PM Modi or his underlings.
but yeah, Modi ~~looks like~~ is a murderous tyrant, history is stacking up against him
Proven tyrant. Lots of documentaries around his shady past.
Uhuh.... The BBC recently released a documentary about this very shady past (specifically about the Gujarat riots, where he was accused of ethnic cleansing against Muslims). Guess what.... This documentary was immediately banned country wide by the Indian government and designated as "foreign propaganda".
Propaganda is not there to make you agree with it, it is there to tell you that you are powerless against it
that's interesting. i'd wager propaganda only works that way when it's winning. but that's difficult to gauge these days. propaganda is more segmented and social media is more "federated". hell, trump's social bs exists via mastodon.
yeah, i wrote that, but i'm a fan of exiting propaganda
That's one headline
JJ did an absolutely excellent description of current India Canada tensions https://youtu.be/OdtyKdY_xcM?si=fuuv-4enmGSDb3NM
He gets at least one thing so wrong I have to question the reliability of the entire thing.
Nijjar has been a landed Canadian immigrants since 1997, not 2007, and its important to note that he got that status via a quick marriage after being denied refugee status.
2006 was the first time India claimed him to be some kind of terrorist mastermind.
Thanks. This topic seems complicated and that there is no moral winner. India cannot assassinate foreign citizens. At the same time, creating a hostile Sikh movement using Canada as a shield should not be tolerated either. We need better anti-extremist programs for every race, culture, and religious groups. I'm just so tired of hate.
