Russia is trying to genocide Ukranians, and India has a Hindu Nationalist leader (aka a synonym of our local Christian Nationalist leader)...so yes, I completely understand that the West will do its best to undermine it's political opponents, but also, they haden to have some existentially oppressive and shitty aspects to their collective as well.

Fuck the US, but also fuck Putin and fuck Modi.
