India shoots Canadian citizen on Canadian soil

“Why would Canada do this??”

India seems no better than Putin's bunch or Xi and his gang of thugs. We need a global decoupling from these despotic regimes.

Modi is a fascist, plain and simple. That it’s taken this long for so many to take notice is incredible. The repression of Sikh and Muslims und his rule is insane.

In 10 years the West would probably consider India to be too powerful and needs to be contained just like China is today. This may eventually push India to form a close alliance with China and Russia (assuming those two hasn't collapsed) and the West will have a much bigger problem to deal with than the China Russia alliance today. This is very similar to how China was used as a counterweight to the Soviets during the cold war, and now is forced to ally with Russia to counter western containment measures.

There’s already a group comprised of these countries from more than 10 years ago now: BRICS. It was somehow pretty irrelevant for many years, but they’ve been actively working to gain allies, many of which are oil-rich countries.
