    I have no doubt that she will, it's just wrong to put her in the same category as people like my father. they don't believe the same things and act for very different reasons. like you'd be totally right to call her a liberal fascist (what a strange world we live in where that's a coherent phrase) in the american context but her position on india is deeply ambivalent to modi and the hindutva bullshit there. she'd be as happy with a liberal government there as a fascist one because she's an american imperialist that only gives a shit about american power.

    tulsi gabbard is different and has built actual ties to modi and the bjp. she's their main vector of power within the democratic party and the US.
