None of it is inaccurate and we already witnessed how Muslims are targeted with this law in Assam.

Yes except Muslims. Thats the problematic part. Religion is used as a defining position for 'repatriation'.

> the ruling Republican party were not only responsible for spreading voter misinformation, opposing a free and fair election, causing an insurrection and failed to hold anybody accountable for it.

This is bad but its not bad as whats happening in India. The govt is throwing activists in jail for protests and raising questions. They have effectively captured all media houses and they telecast blatant anti Muslim propaganda 24/7. This is a massive problem for all except the privileged whom the govt is made of.

This entire defence of the govt and its blatantly bigoted actions looks silly. But I'm not surprised given the demography of Indian tech industry.
