Ok I’m a little behind on this story. Why did Trudeau say India was involved?
And what the fuck, India? Grow up.
The US has admitted that the five eyes intelligence sharing played a part.
Canada is claiming to have Indian government communiques and signal intelligence backing them up.
this story is still developing, but only badly. so far, it is not clear, but some part of India was probably involved, not sure it implicates the PM Modi or his underlings.
but yeah, Modi ~~looks like~~ is a murderous tyrant, history is stacking up against him
Proven tyrant. Lots of documentaries around his shady past.
Uhuh.... The BBC recently released a documentary about this very shady past (specifically about the Gujarat riots, where he was accused of ethnic cleansing against Muslims). Guess what.... This documentary was immediately banned country wide by the Indian government and designated as "foreign propaganda".
Propaganda is not there to make you agree with it, it is there to tell you that you are powerless against it
that's interesting. i'd wager propaganda only works that way when it's winning. but that's difficult to gauge these days. propaganda is more segmented and social media is more "federated". hell, trump's social bs exists via mastodon.
yeah, i wrote that, but i'm a fan of exiting propaganda
