So how dangerous is Joe Biden for India?

Short answer - very.

For long answer follow the thread:
About Trump first:

Donald Trump had made India the foundation stone of his “Indo-Pacific” policy which the democrats have again started calling “Asia Pacific”. Trump and PM Modi shared great personal rapport and both went the extra mile for each other.
Trump openly supported Hindus, talked in Hindi, attended a predominantly Hindu gathering first in Houston then in Motera, and openly criticised Islamic terrorism, an emotive issues for Hindus. It was just the push Hindus in America needed.
About Indians in America:

It’s a tendency of minorities to flock with minorities and other downtrodden communities. They share ghettos, break bread together and stick together. Indian Americans were loyal democrat supporters as it was a party that supported minorities.
But it’s human nature to progress and move to more affluent groups, localities and positions. Hindus while being a minuscule community in the United States amassed considerable wealth and with time their loyalty shifted to republicans.
Wealth kicks in the right wingy tendencies in an individual or a group and I am not making this up, it’s pure human sciences.
About Obama, the last President from the Democratic Party:

Obama was openly critical of outsourcing jobs to India and work visa from India for IT companies were being gradually dispensed with in his time. He even went on to disgrace India as the problem for joblessness in US.
In his recently published memoir Obama took an indirect dig at PM Modi by saying “The quickest route to national unity in India is expressing hostility toward Pakistan”.
A pragmatist to the core, Obama balanced this statement with elaborate criticism of the Gandhis and Manmohan Singh because he knew PM Modi is not going anywhere and he wanted to stay away from creating an India vs USA situation.
About Democrats and India:

Democrats have always considered themselves the guardians of the world, they have taken a hardline stance on almost every Indian domestic issue.
And in the last 15 years, the party has been hijacked by an anti-American gang. Bernie is a proponent of socialism. Proven pro-J!had leaders like Ilhan Omar have found acceptance in the Democratic Party. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez comes across as a Castro fan.
Now worthless Hillary, was sympathetic towards Pakistan and gave it billions of dollars in aid and military equipment only to be used against India. She was even instrumental in blocking PM Modi's visa.
In short, India will be a soft target for Joe Biden to keep the radicals in his party in good humour.
About Joe Biden:

Biden is a night watchman, a seat warmer, a glorified authorised signatory and a loyal pawn of the American deep state. Joe Biden wants New Delhi to “restore” the rights of all Kashmiris and has also expressed disappointment over the CAA and the NRC in Assam.
He went on to compare Kashmir and Assam with the human rights abuse of Uyghur Muslims in China’s far Western province- Xinjiang. The worst part was that the policy paper didn’t even mention Pakistan sponsored terrorism.
One of the lines in the policy paper read, “In Kashmir, the Indian government should take all necessary steps to restore rights of all the people of Kashmir. Restrictions on dissent, such as preventing peaceful protests or shutting or slowing down the Internet, weakens democracy”
It went on to add “Joe Biden has been disappointed by the measures that the government of India has taken with the implementation and aftermath of the National Register of Citizens in Assam and the passage of the Citizenship Amendment Act into law.”
India falls very low on Biden’s priority list. His stance towards China is definitely not Hawkish as was expected by every geopolitical analyst. Biden has already hinted about sanctions on India for purchasing S400s from Russia.
Pro-Democrat media and celebrity gang is already at India’s throat , demonising it for the fake farmers’ protests. The niece of the Vice President of the United States (who blocked me today) is talking more about India than US these days.
So Joe Biden is bad news for India but India has nothing to fear. India has a full majority government led by the strongest prime minister in the History of India.
America is itself in decline and its society is more polarised than ever before. At this point, Biden can be a small distraction for PM Modi but if he continues to mollycoddle China and restores “healthy ties” with Pakistan, he could become a major threat.

Thanks for liking this tweet thread so much. My inbox and mailbox got flooded with congratulatory messages. Some people also asked me to re-post the tweet in Hindi so that it reaches far and wide.

I think that's a great idea. So here it is :-)
ग्रेटा, मिआ और रिहाना एक अदृश्य शत्रु के वित्तपोषित प्रतिनिधि मात्र हैं जबकि वह अदृश्य शत्रु स्वयं वित्तपोषित नहीं है। इसकी शत्रुता इसके भय से उत्पन्न होती है। भय एक जागृत भारत का, भय प्राचीनकाल के भारतवर्ष का।

अब मैं इस सिद्धांत का विवरण करता हूँ।

चलिये गुप्तवंश की अवधि में चलते हैं। भव्य भवनों और राजपथों से भरे और जन-कलरव से गुंजायमान एक से बढ़कर एक विशाल जनपद हैं। लोग धार्मिक हैं और विधि व्यवधान का अक्षरशः पालन करते हैं, राजकोष प्रचुर सम्पदा से युक्त है।

वहीं पश्चिम पूरी तरह से अराजकता में लिप्त है।

Greta, Mia and Rihanna are paid foot soldiers of a faceless enemy but that faceless enemy itself isn’t paid. It does it out of fear. The fear of a truly awakened India, the Bharatvarsha of yore.

Let me explain how.

Let’s wind our clocks back to the Gupta ages. There are bustling cities with proper roads, drainage systems and every other facilities. People are religious and law abiding, state treasury is flowing with money.

The west at the same time is in utter chaos.
Varahamihira and Aryabhata, are writing about planetary motions, Kalidasa is writing the story of Shakuntala. Vatsyayana is writing the Kamasutra, a book about carnal pleasures and Susruta is writing his Samhita on Ayurveda.

West is still busy fighting.

China had a simple method. Build new cities and then abandon them. New cities need cement, bricks, water, roads, electricity and a 100 other things. A new city leads to a chain of economic activities thereby pushing the GDP up. An investor sees a prosperous China.

Contd.
And he parks his money there, China gets fresh funds which it uses to recover the cost of the city and abandons it. So it got money for virtually doing nothing, and got to keep its GDP growth rate artificially up.

I’m not trying to prove how smart China is but...

Contd.
The lesson is that that building more is the sure shot way to push GDP up. It creates jobs, makes existing cities better and creates new cities. But we are not China, we don’t build to abandon.

But there is so much scope in India to build more anyway.

Stopped watching #Tandav after first two episodes. The takeaways from the first two episodes are:

- Shiv ji is upset because Shri Ram is getting popular
- Government is suppressing farmers’ protest
- Cops are killing Muslims after getting upar se aadesh
- UAPA is horrible

Contd
- Azadi song (Kanhaiya Kumar game) is almost patriotic
- A son has killed his father who is the sitting PM because he wants to be the PM
- A party’s IT Cell works like a hashtag factory
- No journalist helps farmers and students except for a Barkha lookalike

Contd
No it’s okay if you wish to spread propaganda, but where is the subtlety? This is so bloody in your face, this can sway only the ones on your side. What happened to the classic leftist artistry? Have you forgotten the art of brainwashing? How would you get new supporters?

The A4 sheets that you own and don’t own (A thread)

Imagine you buy some A4 sheets from a stationary store. Let’s imagine that the stationary shop owner is a leftist, and you’re a right winger. You come home and use those A4 sheets to print some right wingy stuff.
Now here’s a question:

Can the shop owner storm into your place and snatch your sheets because he doesn’t agree with what you’re printing on the sheets you bought from his shop. What a stupid question right, of course he can’t.
You own the sheets, you can print whatever you want on those sheets and only law enforcement agencies can decide whether the stuff printed on the sheets is incendiary or not.

#Bloomsbury reneging on its contract to publish the book on Delhi Riots 2020 is an example of how leftists never learn. I have an alternate take, follow the thread.
It’s a well known fact that leftists have rants, right has facts, leftists have soft power, right has money, leftists are agenda peddlers and right is reactionary and that’s why the Bloomsbury episode will backfire majorly.
Alright so someone had written a book about Delhi Riots. Fine. She got a publisher. Great. The book would have released, some people would have bought it and cursed the “ones” behind it. End of the story.
