India has stopped issuing visas to Canadian citizens on Thursday. These actions signify a rising tension sparked by Canada's declaration of "actively pursuing credible allegations" connecting Indian government agents to the 18 June killing of a Sikh separatist leader in June. Prime Minister Narendra Modi's government firmly denied any connections to the supposed murder. India’s spokesperson slams Canada’s interference in its internal affairs. But Mr Trudeau said on Thursday he was not looking to provoke India with the allegation. India's side asserts that Canada does not share information. Relations between the countries - key trade and security partners, and US allies - have been strained for months. The US is in contact with the two countries and emphasizes no division between US and Canada on this issue. __________________ ShanghaiEye focuses on producing top-quality contents.

    The global south should start subjecting Westoids to the same visa application humiliation non-Westerners get put through.

    100-com. Realistically, it wouldn’t harm the working class of the West much since we’re too fucking poor to travel anyhow. Wealthy white people are the most common “tourists” from the West.

    Gonna be interesting to see this whole situation shakes out. India pulled a Kashogi and it remains to be seen whether the Western blob sees India as being on the same level of strategic importance as Saudi Arabia.

    I love the empire’s splintering. There’s cracks that won’t hold forever, so collapsing relations from in-fighting serve to accelerate the weakening of the liberal world’s hegemony, and I’m here for it sit-back-and-enjoy

      I once saw a man get mad to the point of yelling at embassy staff because the Chinese visa form asked him to declare his income. Not prove it or anything, just write down a fucking number.

      Conversely Chinese Nationals applying for a visa to visit his country need to provide pay slips and tax records to prove that they have money.

        American exceptionalism. They believe everyone owes them a red carpet, limousines, a VIP room and blowjobs on demand.

        I’m going to relish every single second of the hysteria coming from those types as their hegemonic privileges wither away with the rise of China and the Global South.

          They were incredibly butthurt when China increased qualification requirements and background checks for English teachers to renew their visas. A lot of them left and have been sour grapesing since then. Heart warming to see.

            A non-white nation surpassing the West in all respects, while the latter stews in arrested national development and full-spectrum decay.

            They have nothing more to say, really. China is physical and social proof of a superior form of governance by the proletariat. Hell, even a single video from the channel Living in China is enough to shut people up and shatter Cold War world views in most cases. What can you honestly say when the proof is just right in front of you? The narratives would have to become increasingly cartoony and absurd… and they are… and it’s not working anymore.

            China doesn’t need the imperialist countries anymore. Too fucking bad for them. They don’t get to be the masters and keep their boots on everyone’s necks anymore. Their race theory is also shot to shit now, so they’ve lost pretty much everything they used to rely on to legitimize themselves.
