Rep. Ro Khanna condemned Trump's white supremacy but not Modi's Hindu supremacy. Perhaps because of growing U.S.-India defense ties.

On May 23, Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese called Modi a rockstar,It is clear that in the context of a growing cold war with China and Russia, the West had decided that it is time to draw India in, even if it means playing to the megalomania of an authoritarian leader. That China was on the menu was clarified by U.S.

The Biden-Khanna duo seems to have moved away from the autocracy vs. democracy framework, into a new space characterized by some segments of the neoliberal establishment as a narrower liberal “realist” position: that a Hindu Right authoritarian regime is an acceptable partner to maintain American hegemony. This is an absurdly myopic and blinkered view stuck in a mid-to-late 20th century paradigm. The first thing to note is that China is the emergent capitalist superpower.

With Modi facing a difficult general election in 2024, a dramatic expansion of military trade with the U.S. would allow him to present himself as the prime minister who is ready to take on China. Modi may go as far as saber rattling before the 2024 general elections, an echo of his military strikes in Pakistan before the 2019 elections.

This is the adventurism that the Biden-Khanna team is rolling out, and Modi, macho authoritarian that he is — and nationalism being his most important selling point — is the perfect partner. In fact, arguably, a government run by an ultra-nationalist right-wing party is a more convenient client to sell U.S. arms to than a moderate-centrist one.
