~ Narendra modi, messenger of God
I have never seen someone being so far up their own ass.
Oh lord here we go …
Religion in politics is poison. Hope he doesn’t do anything too nutty with his claimed divinity.
What year is it
Here we go… It’s been 300+ years since we got a new religion. Here comes Modi bhagwan…
Damn not even putin or xi are this open with their insanity this guy is really aiming for the top of the fascist leadership.
Just what we need, another leader with a god complex.
Since it isn’t mentioned anywhere:
He is the prime minister of India.
Papa Smurf is going senile.
Omg he’s lost it.
He is the demigod India deserves, tbh. What a ridiculous country.
People this insane need to ride helicopters more.
What a bad day to be literate.
Never fear anyone more than the person who openly shows his insanity
Nope. Not a good sign
Don’t people who generally say stuff like this get sent to mental hospitals?
I don’t think it’d work out for me if I say that during my monthly team meeting.
“Hey guys!! I thought I was made of parts from my parents but then I realized I was sent by god to be in this meeting to present this PowerPoint on why I am an emissary of Yewah.”
If you talk to Indians about their country you realize this ain’t even the most fucked up shit or anything special. India is a whole country living “fake it until you make it”.
Many have started calling him “Supreme leader”. It was Sambhit Patra a BJP spokesperson who said that.
Fuk. Modi 😝
This is how a smart trump would look like.
Putin and Xi in control of Nukes does not scare me. But radical religious loons Like Modi and Iran’s supreme leader horrify me because they can’t be predicted on the basis of self preservation, so all it takes is a really bad day and a grave insult for them to genuinely consider it.
The last one considered a deity was the Japanese emperor till WWII? The CCP in China thinks they’ve been given the Heavenly Mandate…No thanks
Delusional old fart.
Authoritarianism has been making progress everywhere.
The trend definitely is toward less personal freedom and toward more government control…
Delusional af.
Which god? He’s Hindu, so he’s got a whole pantheon to choose from.
Enjoy your dictatorship India.
Too much bhang.
India will regret electing him for the 1,000 years afterwards
This guy’s brain has retired. Time for an update
Genuine question since I am neither Indian nor Hindu. How unusual is what he said? Is what he said being mischaracterized or twisted? I am familiar with many different religions traditions and I know that sometimes people inside a particular religious tradition may say things that to outsiders can easily be misunderstood and framed as insane. I know this might be a stretch for Reddit but can someone give a neutral assessment of what he said and explain if there is context for what he said or if what he said really is unusual? I’m not looking to justify what he said, just to understand it and if it is actually unusual even in an Indian and Hindu context.
Right wing politician shifts further towards authoritarianism and claims his rule is due to divine providence . Historically, this always ends poorly.
I guess he watched Dune recently, just didn’t understand it one bit
Should have gone with the simple, time-proven *”My mother was a virgin when I was born.”*
See: Krishna, Jesus, Athena, Chaos, Nyx, Eros, Ghengis Khan, Lao Tzu, Buhhha, Romulus, Dionysus, Alexander the Great, Zoroaster, Karna, Ra, Sathya Sai Baba, . . .
I went to college with a bunch of Modi supporters. It’s another flavor of MAGA.
Let me fix that headline.
“Leader of nuclear nation loses mind, announces madness.”
Oh boy, Modi has gone god mode. I guess it was only a matter of time.
Modi is dictatorial
“Why isn’t India as developed as China?”
Donald Dump must be envious of this guy.
This is what happens when you stay in power for too long
What god? Don’t they believe in many?
Odd how every right-wing populist turns out to be a fucking weirdo.
Indias a nuclear power btw lol
“You can’t expect to wield supreme executive power just ’cause some watery tart threw a sword at you!”
“Mentally ill man with nuclear weapons declares he is a magical creature from a fantasy world”
