"Oh so you dont like the idea of a WHITE ethno-state? does that mean you hate Gandhi? He was an Ethno-Nationalist?

This is like what Zizek said about "unabashed pleasure" or something similar being at the heart of nationalism.
I think he calls it "the potential for obscene pleasure." Like all these cucks that used to come through here to ignorantly try to rub Trump's victory in our faces, they experience (or desire to experience) the vicarious pleasure of someone punishing people they don't like.
I think it was something like that, it's been a minute.
Gandhi wasn't even ethnonationalist tho…
How could he be? There is no "Indian" nation. Pick just about any given point in India's history and you'll find it divided up between rival kingdoms. It's a vast subcontinent and to believe that a single uniform people inhabit it now or ever would be beyond delusion
"200 years of peace" if you ignore all those failed invasions of China and Korea
Not even that, there is no ethnic "indian". Seriously, like a third of the country isn't even Indo-European, let alone in the same ethnic group. It is impossible to be a ethno-nationalist in India unless you want a state of like a few villages.
It doesn't matter what you think, exploitation is a scientific process it's not "when my boss is mean to me". If you produce something working, and that product is then appropriated by your boss/company and then sold for a profit, you have been exploited.
Literally over 500 princely states existed before Indian unification. It's impossible for Ghandi to have been an ethnonationalist in any way, shape or form
