When you're rich and powerful, you can do anything you want and people will still like you.
When you're weak and poor, people will despise you whatever you do.
This is the fundamental truth.

That's why I find the whole focus on soft power approach dumb.
The results speak for themselves first and then the soft power comes.
India tries to present itself as a guru to the world and it just pisses everyone off. A guru who can't even use toilets properly wants to boast how he knows what's best for you?
True soft power is like the velvet glove on an iron fist.

Agreed. Too many people focus on the "soft" part of soft power, and forget that soft power still needs to be power. Cultural dissemination without the ability to actually influence decisions is not soft power, it's just soft.
They are just jealous that camsluts are willingly giving away their heart (and arguably more important parts of the human anatomy through data sharing) to the SeeSeePee.
