I'm not an Indian, but I can understand why a country that was oppressed by the Great Britain for such a long time, and endured such atrocities, can opt to support the party that stands on the opposite side of Britain.
That alone could explain why not only India, but big parts of the worlds, especially the ones that suffered from the British and American imperialism, would rather see an arch-enemy of their usurper win against oppressors puppet state.

- junon 4y agoI understand this. I'm simply asserting that if one believes in this political drivel, ignoring the onslaught happening in Ukraine, then you've not progressed as a human much beyond the middle ages.
- miroljub 4y agoUnfortunately, it's how humans work. As a species, we did not progress beyond the Middle Ages. Our tech did, but we didn't. Still the same tribalism as before. When we plunder the other village, take their crop and their wives, it's to bring justice to the world. When they come to us, take our crop and our wives, they are evil aggressors. Nothing has changed, and probably will not change anytime soon. Thousands of years of evolution are still stronger than whatever thin layer of civilization we try to put on top.
