Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.

Rules:

-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--

-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

Incredible escalations. One can only hope Trudeau does the same back and fuck up Canada but unfortunately I think he's nowhere near dumb enough to do that. Doesn't fit his platform and would destroy his already tiny chances of winning the next election

I can't imagine how doing a very liberal "Those brown people can't come into our country and break the rules!" finger-wag at India will hurt Trudeau.

America: "Hey Canada, we're going to seize a couple of your residents and disappear them into Gitmo for a few years, cool?"

Canada: "Ah, yeah bro. No problem, aye."

India: "Oh, is that cool? Great. We're sending in the marines to wack a guy leading a seperatist movement."

Canada: "Whoa! Whoa! Whoa! us-foreign-policy Wrong kinda Aryans there, champ. Yer gonna hafta apologize or somethin'."

Probably the western alliance wants to develop a fifth column within India while the USA as the main player remains friends with Modi.

The west is a multi-headed hydra and the US can keep playing India as an ally against China while Canada becomes the safe haven of the anti-Modi resistance.
