Quick Glance: India's Modi Attacks Pro-Muslim Rivals in Election Shift
- Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his Hindu nationalist party have begun attacking opposition rivals, claiming they favor minority Muslims, in an effort to energize their hardline base after the start of general elections last week.
- Modi referred to Muslims as 'infiltrators' who have 'more children', linking it to an alleged election plan by the main opposition Congress party to redistribute Hindu wealth among Muslims, a claim denied by the Congress.
- Modi's government has faced accusations of discrimination against India's 200 million Muslims, but has denied them, emphasizing its work for the welfare of all citizens.
- Modi initially focused on development, welfare, and national pride in his campaign, but shifted focus back to core voters after the first phase, addressing issues of joblessness and rural distress.

Quick Glance: Elon Musk and the Support of Far-Right in Brazil
- A court in Brazil is planning an investigation against X owner Elon Musk for alleged obstruction of justice, following Musk's reactivation of accounts belonging to far-right individuals that were flagged by the Brazilian government for removal.
- Under Musk's leadership, X has transformed into a sanctuary for the far right and dissemination of misinformation, resulting in an escalation of hate speech on the platform.
- Experts caution that Musk is establishing a dangerous precedent by protecting and promoting the far right on his platform, regardless of local regulations or public opinion.
- Despite Musk's claims of advocating for free speech, the implementation of these principles on the platform has been inconsistent under his direction, especially concerning government requests to deactivate accounts.
