Could you please explain, in your own words, why Modi is a threat to India? I have to admit I don't know much about Indian politics, but trying to learn about it
To condense a long, long story of various corruption schemes, abuses of power, sectarian violence and general jerkassery:
1. He's a Hindu Supremacist
2. From a party of literal, 1920s era fascists that we stupidly never finished off for good
3. Is responsible for a massacre of 2000 citizens when he was Chief Minister of Gujarat state
4. Is a crony capitalist par excellence
5. Has been trying for 4 years (2/3 of his term so far) to turn India into a Hindu Supremacist dictatorship
6. Is an autocrat responsible for bullying state auditors to hide his graft schemes, for arresting hundreds of social activists and journalists, and for resisting his brutal crackdown on Kashmiris
And he recently tried to establish a law that would see muslim immigrants shoved into detention camps, as well as weakening citizenship of Indian muslims. When citizens protested in the millions to get it withdrawn, his minions in various state governments shot down ~30 peaceful protestors and tried to carry out false flag attacks to frame them.
The recent farmers protests saw a rise in brutality to crush the protestors, which has basically pushed my country down to Russia level autocracy. 200 farmers are dead already, a young activist was raped and dozens more tortured in prisons, and similar false flag operations are being carried out to frame the Sikh protestors as terrorists.
And to add insult to injury, India has been in an economic catastrophe 4 years that has seen historic unemployment and income inequality, along with media being essentially muzzled.
There's more, but that's enough for now. Suffice it to say, people are getting arrested for jokes, for social media messages, and just because they were muslim and the cops felt like it.
It is getting to Indira Gandhi levels of autocratic. We don't even trust the army and judiciary anymore.
