cargo cult posted:are there a bunch of succinct reasons that India never experienced a revolution? I'd argue that there has been a smoldering low scale revolution going on for the last 70 years, just look at the history of communists in Kerala or the Naxalites in Andhra Pradesh. The Indian state is ridiculously weak: there are 9999 cross cutting ethnic, racial, religious, and caste interests effectively preventing any sort of unified front leftist or otherwise. Which is why Modi's syncretic hindu fash party is p loving dangerous

Plutonis posted:Didn't they flip Kerala away from the CPI? the bjp has no presence in kerala. in the last election they reached a high of like 12% of the vote. kerala is fought between alliances of the center left and far left. congress crushed in kerala and their allies held it together so they'll control the government. congress' new seats came entirely at the expense of cpi(m) the alliances are weird though! india's revolutionary socialist party is allied with congress against the cpi(m) and wiki says they're explicitly ML edit lol found 'em i say swears online fucked around with this message at 02:53 on Jun 2, 2019 |

Yeah it should probably be noted that there have been a lot of local movements i.e. Baba Bujha Singh in Punjab and George Reddy in Hyderabad. In the end both got killed by right winged shitheads though.

Plutonis posted:Didn't they flip Kerala away from the CPI? The national-level results look like poo poo because A. the CPI doesn't have a strong national presence B. people allegedly vote differently at the national level than they would at the state level C. India uses first-past-the-post So it might have looked like Kerala was "lost" to the BJP in these recent elections, but it doesn't reflect on their local government or at least that's what I got from the latest Moderate Rebels, when they interviewed Indian journalist Prabir Purkayastha

You know, the only part of India where the BJP literally has no boots on the ground, to combat the BJP.
