Browsing through comments on youtube videos about India right now is crazy. Full of Islamophobic, racist rhetoric almost indistinguishable from white nationalist ones (example CW: Islamophobia).

    Others are better at answering this but with the way I’ve seen their rhetoric towards China i have no doubt India would join in in a first strike against the PRC with their American friends.
