      That’s exactly my point lol. The measure which work in India are the same ones which work everywhere. But because India is a capitalist country, it gets to use these and claim to be a “democracy” and for its progress to be recognised as capitalism’s progress. While the same measures, when it results in the betterment of people in China, Vietnam, Cuba etc in even greater measures is somehow a bad thing and something to be criticised. Like, India is a case study in how neoliberal, austerity-driven capitalism literally cannot work when you have 1 billion plus people who’ve been colonized and need the government and even the billionaire-backed government in charge knows this. If they enact 100% of the capitalist agenda, there will be a revolution tomorrow. And the India state is nowhere near as capable of suppressing it as the American one.
