Far‑Right Flips on India

Once fascinated with India and Iran as part of an ‘Indo‑European’ or ‘Aryan’ civilizational lineage, segments of the contemporary American radical right have pivoted to overtly anti‑Indian, anti‑South‑Asian rhetoric — a change visible in campaign flare‑ups and online far‑right ecosystems. That reversal exposes ideological incoherence within the transnational far right and creates a new fault line that can reorder local electoral coalitions and diaspora security dynamics. — This shift matters because it affects GOP coalition management, diaspora political safety, and the racial framing of national belonging ahead of elections.
