Does not have to be a binary black and white affair. I suspect we have lots of gray down to Indian political parties funding Pak terror groups for election benefits. Demonetization was coupled with many updates to the digital infrastructure so that any attempts at re-accumulating cash were that much...

Question that popped up in my curious mind - Is there room in India now for apps that exclude English as an option?

For instance Whatsapp, but no English language keyboard. Drawing inspiration from the Chinese success in serving their local market obviously.

Did not forget. Indian agents are alleged to have successfully operated in Canada and UK. Its only the USA that's officially invested enough in protecting the Khalistani and Pakistani terrorists that operations have not succeeded. USA immigration offices are going to be busy with a new type of client.

Israel is losing the PR war and not getting its message across.

One of the more insidious fake news making its way on the young adult campus grapevine is that Israel could rescue the hostages if they wanted to. Except that they much rather prefer killing more civilians.

SD failed in regime change. So, now Soros is trying to discredit the elections - like they tried in BD. EVM = Modi, paper ballots = pappu. So, EVMs are bad.

In the light of this, is the US considered a democracy still?

Technically, a democracy is under civilian control. However, the description above would very much fit a gang or drug cartel.

The law responsible for those bills (colloquially called Obamacare) was passed by Obama when Biden was VP! Medicare, Medicaid or commercial insurance doesn't matter if one gets stuck with a bill at the end anyway.

US immigration policy is set up to import many more Muslims than Hindus. This is the result and some US politicians will therefore get added to the list of pseudo-secular politicians. A politicians main interest is to get elected, all else being secondary.
