One of the major yearly exams got leaked in India last month so the BJP has been trying to suppress that news for some weeks now.

So they’ve launched a racism campaign against China where Indian bot accounts have “discovered” a secretive caste system in China which apparently is worse than the Indian caste system.

They’re using two things to support their claims:

  1. Four Occupations System which has not existed for centuries
  2. Hukou system which is the Soviet Internal Passport system

This is just 100% cope to feel good about living in a failing state that is India.

    I remember facebook being absolutely huge there as well. I always wondered how much it plays into propaganda cos my indian family before I cut them off would just spam me with random facebook bullshit that was utterly unhinged. You got any views on that?
