I guess America cares about India's human rights record now that India is trading with Russia and doesn't back Ukraine unconditionally. You coud totally see this coming once India started trading with Russia.
The Indian government, and especially the current government, has been treating muslims terribly for years. But the American establishment didn't have a problem with it until India declared they wouldn't go along with Russian sanctions.

- arcen 4y agoWhat do you mean treating muslims terribly?
- statguy 4y agoThe current Indian government has taken an increasingly fascist approach towards Indian Muslims. It has been jailing Muslim activists without due course and trials, demolishing homes of Muslims participating in peaceful protests and turning a blind eye to fireband Hindu leaders openly calling for genocide against Muslims. https://m.thewire.in/article/communalism/beyond-blasphemy-inside-yati-narsinghanands-militant-hindutva-machinery/amp https://m.thewire.in/article/communalism/beyond-blasphemy-in... https://www.boomlive.in/news/hindu-rashtra-convention-bengaluru-muslims-are-cancer-land-jihad-17829 https://www.boomlive.in/news/hindu-rashtra-convention-bengal... https://www.wnycstudios.org/podcasts/takeaway/segments/indias-democracy-crisis https://www.wnycstudios.org/podcasts/takeaway/segments/india... https://article-14.com/post/jailed-or-punished-with-or-without-trial-how-the-state-misuses-the-law-against-india-s-inconvenient-citizens-62d615129ab71 https://article-14.com/post/jailed-or-punished-with-or-witho...

- arcen 4y agoHmm these articles quote people like Rana Ayyub who have been known to scam people [1]. And Javed mohammed who incited violence over mere words. As for Bangalore specifically I don't agree with that ideology, but there is an influx of illegal Bangladeshis and Rohingyas in the city - I will not ignore that either. Now I wonder if you are aware about what recently happened, where two Muslim men beheaded a man in broad daylight for merely supporting someone's right to speak about their prophet. The poor man just happened to support a BJP spokesperson who was defending her faith. There have been multiple instances where there were massive riots and protests calling for the spokesperson rape and beheading. No to mention a leaked document about islamisation of India [3]. I personally do not think Muslims are being oppressed in light of such activities. On the contrary I think the game of media and setting narratives is being played on an international level to depict India as being anti-Muslim.

- rsstack 4y agoFacebook is not being accused by "the American establishment". They are being accused by private people, many of them not from the US.
- hackerlight 4y agoThis was actively discussed in the US prior to March 2022, so I don't understand how you can hold that belief.
- denton-scratch 4y agoIt was "actively discussed in the US", therefore certain opinions are no longer possible?
