Had a clubhouse meet with friends (who are all under 45). Nobody got an appointment, most finished registrations. Looks like government pulled a fast one. Vaccination begins in May, but appointments for these are impossible to have.

Stinking shits of America?

It's not about profit, it's about saving lives, and depriving Kamala of an anti-BJP narrative as we head into UP and Gujarat elections.

I have a hunch that the Modi administration is about to go kinetic against the US democrats. Call out their every bluff, retort their every lie, and blunt every threat. Starting with S-400, lease of the second Akula, and mass-production of Sputnik-V, whose production will overtake SII's...

"Experts fear" "528 million Indians have COVID-19" FUD. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fear,_uncertainty,_and_doubt

Haan BC, banning Paler (a Twitter clone used by US right-wing), and countless US right-wing social media accounts just this January, was "aligned with the US view of free speech." These fuckers need to be called out at every level.

LOL that picture is from the LG Chem gas leak that happened in Visakhapatnam last Summer. New York Post....that explains a lot.

Among other things, SII got license to mass-produce AstraZeneca on condition that it exports a large percentage of the inventory to GAVI. It's the Indian share from which Modi did the vaccine diplomacy. I don't think it's the arrogance that Indians are offspring of Thor that caused this...

I wouldn't write off the possibility of BJP gerrymandering Vidarbha and Marathwada out as a separate state before 2024. This would secure 20 LS seats for the BJP, but it will suffer heavy losses in the west (which was a lost cause anyway). Fadnavis's wannabe socialite wife will be kicked out of...

They probably will, but the election in Maharashtra will be no less violent or compromised than West Bengal. Hundreds of BJP party workers will die.

Amazon has just one problematic subsidiary, and that's WaPo. Prime Video's political impact is negligible. AWS possibly helped India out during the "farmer" shitshow. Twitter, on the other hand, will face the ban hammer, sooner than later.

Modi's maneuvering should be similar to that of the EU in the wake of Trump. We will skirt sanctions, at the same time, scale down our strategic engagement. Multilateralism is indeed the west's Achilles' Heel, and the Chinese got a headstart. Americans will learn the hard way they can't get...

Not entirely sure about Russia, but yes, India will buy less American ware. The refueler tender is practically won by the A330. Hope IAF has a taste for Rolls Royce engines.

Yup, too late. Rather Modi should dial Ella, midwife licensing of COVAXIN to at least 20 Indian companies capable of making traditional deactivated virion vaccines; and flood the market with COVAXIN. It needs no US raw materials. My Dad says COVAXIN is good enough to prevent hospitalization...

This line is arthasatya. The sooner the gyaani NRIs realize this, the better.

Tik-Tok hasn't even wreaked 1/1000th the political havoc that Twitter and Facebook have. It's a platform for thots and abduls to share distateful videos, and the Chinese will be more than happy to put its content moderation completely in Indian hands just to enable to platform here. Twitter, on...

We are beyond the point where we can do log kya kahenge analyses. Time is to go kinetic with our geopolitical muscle.

Modi's geopolitical options: Announce a withdrawal form QUAD. It wasn't a formal alliance, but a withdrawal will send a strong geopolitical message Withdraw from LEMOA, CISMOA, and COMCASA Midwife licensing agreements between Bharat Biotech and numerous vaccine manufacturers in India...

There are thousands of threads across the Internet with "Trump" in the title. Kamala Harris is the de facto POTUS. So the title calls out the person under whose leadership, India-US relations are deteriorating.

True. Kamala and Lutyen's media has turned this crisis into an anti-Modi shitshow (just look up any Editors Guild presstitute over the recent days). BJP is responding with an anti-US narrative.
