i have to wonder though, the Turkish diaspora for example, leave their country (and it’s no small thing to uproot from family and friends) because they find it a bit of a “shit hole” and better opportunities abroad, defend Erdogan to the death, as the man the country needs, no matter an earthquake shattering all those poorly built buildings from endless corruption.
The diaspora often seems part of the problem, I suspect similarly with Modi, they’ll broadly support him.
The Indian diaspora will probably be similar, Modi seems to get a rockstar welcome wherever he goes. It’ll be interesting to see what views surface as this continues.

They do. The Indian diaspora (especially the boomers and older millennials) are shockingly rabid in their support for Modi and Hindutva nationalism
