In this episode, we discuss both the history of and whats been happening more recently, with the far right in India. We talk about the types of tactics used by Hindu nationalists, to promote Hindu supremacy, terms like ‘Love Jihad’…. we discuss overlaps between Modi-ism and Trumpism, rhetoric being used that is reminiscent of white supremacists, the recent tensions between Canada & India, state complicity in prejudice, the role of social media as a catalyst, and how Hindu Supremacists are becoming a global issue….all that & more… Here’s a tragic but important thread by Gaurav going back a couple of years, with endless examples of fascism & bigotry in India https://x.com/gauravsabnis/status/1453105434034851842?s=61&t=w7q_ejvwZ_gCFj9WV50Lqw
