Fareed says "Musk chose a wrong time to attack the Modi govt." I agree with Fareed on everything he says in this episode. Including on how Trump admin has eroded 25 years of India-US relationship, and trust by cozying up to India's arch rival and dictatorship like Pakistan. But here's my analysis on Musk's actions: Musk didn't chose the wrong moment. He was advised to do this attack wrongly by agents of a power orchestrating all kinds of destabilizing events in and around India now. He was advised to do it at a time when Starlink was about to be approved anyway. IMO, the influence this power has on Musk's supply chain was leveraged to make him do this attack on GoI, Ambani, and Modi. But this power is very bad in understanding India. It thought by doing this using Elon's clout when its other destabilization protests were on, and by using its political agents inside India to attack Modi linking Ambani, it can destabilize India further. These supremacists have little understanding about India and its diverse psychology. They project their homogeneous culture and reverence for westerners like Elon on diverse Indians to think such attacks by him will be endorsed by Indians. It backfired badly. Not only it backfired for Elon and the purpose he was made to attack, it backfired on their main destabilizing efforts using protests and anarchy too. It helped a foreign hand emerge in the minds of Indians clearly diluting the regime change efforts. This is why I believe in the long term this power will fail against India even if it succeeds against other superpower adversaries. India is too complex and diverse even for highly experienced Indian politicians to direct it as a whole. It's better to give up and get along.
