- nsvd 3y agoThe term has become a political dog whistle recently.
- yipbub 3y agoYes, but this doesn't seem like that usage. It's neutral on those issues.
- jowea 3y agoThere's been some political controversy with the right-wing government favouring the Bharat name very recently. Nobody seems to have updated the Wikipedia article yet.
- morbidious 3y agoThese right-wing, left-wing terms have come from the west and violated with a negative connotation from the west. Don't defile anything in the east with these vile implications that the western nazis have come to associate with. We in the east are civilized people, not genocidal barbarians. Thank you.
