How would you enforce it? telling everyone you dislike that they
will simply not be able to have children is a sure way to make
them dislike your movement.
Anyways what culture are we talking about here? i'm talking
about the "culture", the agenda that permeates modern day china
which you invoked when you talked about Xinjiang and by
extension their treatment of muslims, this is not some CIA
propaganda ops, lest you sound like deluded russophiles who deny
the atrocities of the communists against muslims, pretending
like this is a sort of "model" for a noble state that could be
applied elsewhere makes you lose a lot of credibility. Compare
the treatment of muslims in china to the treatment in ww2
germany, no doubt there were racists and tribalists too but i
didn't see any muslims being brought to the camps, because there
was no need to rebel against a state that fights for you. China,
instead, tries to appease all the western occupiers and the
eastern countries that larp as western by fighting their own
little "war on terror".

"How would you enforce it? telling everyone you dislike that

We have never claimed that the Aryanist ideal will be a popular
one. Quite the contrary.
"Anyways what culture are we talking about here?"
I definitely agree that the Chinese culture that the Xinjiang
Muslims are being assimilated into is far from a noble one. For
example, I have even heard reports that the Uyghurs are being
forced to eat pork and drink alcohol! But I never claimed that
this is the culture that we should impose onto the Kashmiris. I
was merely praising the methods. I should also note, that there
are plenty of non-fundamentalist Muslims in other parts of China
who to the best of my knowledge are not being persecuted. My
main issue with the fundamentalists is that (in the case of
China) they are threatening the integrity of the state, or (in
the case of India) justify their ignoble behaviors (e.g.
beef-eating) and bigoted attitudes (Kashmiri society is
extremely racist).
Also, about the Uyghurs (who claim Xinjiang is actually "East
Turkestan"), for the record:

> Known as Turan to the Persians, western Turkestan has also
been known historically as Sogdia, "Ma wara'u'n-nahr" (by its
Arab conquerors), and Transoxiana by western travelers. The
latter two names refer to its position beyond the River Oxus
when approached from the south, emphasizing Turkestan's
long-standing relationship with Iran, the Persian Empires, and
the Umayyad and Abbasid Caliphates.
>
> Oghuz Turks (also known as Turkmens), Kyrgyzs, Uzbeks,
Kazakhs, Khazars, Uyghurs, and Hazaras are some of the Turkic
inhabitants of the region who, as history progressed, have
spread further into Eurasia forming such Turkic nations as
Turkey, and subnational regions like Tatarstan in Russia and
Crimea in Ukraine. Tajiks and Russians form sizable non-Turkic
minorities.

Turkestan in the west, and Chinese Turkestan or East Turkestan.

1947 while their secular pro western elites, especially in the

> For 60 years India was ruled by the Congress (Gandhians,
Nehruvians) which promoted false ideas of secularism and
"diversity" within India which merely created more communal
divisions between muslims and Hindus.
> Pakistanis dreaming to wipe out Hindus, it is an old dream and
they failed miserably at it. They ruled India for 1000 years and
failed at it. British colonialism failed wiping out Hinduism and
dharmic religions. They are far more Aryans than even Islam and
christianiaty which though anti jewish have many of their core
foundations based on judaism and jewish toxic ideas. Since 2014
With BJP and Modi India has regained and is regaining its former
dharmic glory slowly and steadily.
> As for Hindu Survivalism vs Islamic Militarism, the entire
concept of Ghazwa e Hind Pakistan dreams of is a concept devised
by the British with whom the Pakistani Army keeps close ties
with till date and Pakistan is still deeply colonized nation,
while India is moving more ahead.

The biggest mistake India made was to establish diplomatic
relations with Israel after improving India-US ties via
liberalization (in addition to getting rid of the few remnants
of autocracy from the previous governments). I hope improvements
in US-China relations will provide a chance for India to become
autocratic, as this would signify that one can maintain good
relations with the US without being democratic. Similarly, if
the US turns anti-Israel, it can influence India to turn
anti-Zionist as well.

U.K. army chief says citizens should be ready to fight in
possible land war
--- Quote ---
> London - U.K. civilians should be ready to fight in a
hypothetical land war, the head of the British army, Gen.
Patrick Sanders, said Wednesday, warning that the ongoing
Russian invasion of Ukraine showed it was "citizen armies" that
make the difference in conflicts. He said the British military
is currently too small to respond to the threats emerging in a
changing world.
>
> "Taking preparatory steps to enable placing our societies on a
war footing when needed are now not merely desirable but
essential," Sanders said in a speech. "Our friends in eastern
and northern Europe, who feel the proximity of the Russian
threat more acutely, are already acting prudently, laying the
foundations for national mobilization."
>
> The U.K. army is currently estimated to include around 75,000
fully trained professional soldiers, and there are another
60,000 service members in the British navy and air force.
>
> The U.K. spends around 2% of its gross domestic product on its
military. Though the British government says that will increase
to 2.5%, Sanders, who has long argued for more military
spending, said the army should grow to a standing force of
around 120,000 soldiers by 2027, and even that "is not enough."
>
> "Ukraine brutally illustrates that regular armies start wars;
citizen armies win them," Sanders said...

> Don't forget, the Russians took Outer Manchuria from China in
the early 1900. Vladivostok was known as Yongmingcheng when it
was in the Outer Manchurian state of China. The Chinese have
actually changed to the original Chinese name on their modern
maps. Using Russian logic to invade Ukraine, China could invade
eastern Russia and take back Outer Manchuria.

(Russia's typical defensive posture), China wins a war of

juggernaut, as its biggest weakness is it relies on overseas
shipping to maintain itself, a weakness that the US has
exploited by building bases around the area so they could block
it to greatly damage their economy.

such as Oil, minerals, timber etc. that weakness disappears plus
China will now have alternate routes for coastal trade.

How soon can a NATO-Russia war happen?
--- Quote ---
> It's a mistake to assume that the war in Ukraine must end
before Russia can be a threat to NATO. This idea is built on a
paradox, and it doesn't take into account the question of
Europe's limited defense resources. On the contrary, a Russian
attack on NATO could be a way to improve their chances in
Ukraine.
