I'm pretty sure that's how guys like RSS would self-identify. A Hindu Rashtra (ethnostate) is their stated goal, and the marching and paramilitary activity make me skeptical they would say "we're just moderate".
they are not even close to being as radical as you think omg, even if they are it still has nothing to do with india being autocracy. i said that because this has nothing to do with india being autocracy
And see, that's where you can actually get me. I don't follow Indian politics that closely, I don't know off the top of my head what exactly the mainstream NGOs are talking about when they mention the autocratic shift under the BJP. Maybe you can add some context.
It looks like it still rates still rates as a flawed democracy at this point, to be clear. Even groups openly hostile to democracy, which the BJP isn't to my knowledge, can take many years to accomplish the shift to autocracy, because norms don't die overnight.
just so you know, in democracy index india is just slightly below usa and yes even usa is considered flawed democracy here and yeah I hope you realise you were seriously biased against India and idk why
The US political system is on the brink of failing. That's not a brag.
You seem biased too, probably because you're in the picture.
again like i said, I'm not bragging i told that because no one think us is a autocracy but you somehow thought india is.
