    slightly different flavors of populist conservative

    It’s not “populist conservatism”. That’s minimizing media language. It’s extreme right wing demagoguery.

    This specific flavor being Hindu-nationalist fascism.

      Oh I agree with you, but I wanted to alude to what’s going on in other parts of the world as well, where it’s not at the outright fascist stage. Yet. (I also called it dictatorial, so…)
