It depends on who you view as facist. If you think anyone conservative is facist, we're not going to be close friends. I'm not a conservative, but I am rational, so I understand the idea that all conservatives are facist is an extreme view, and actually a pretty facist way of thinking in itself.

I'm not sure who BJP is, do you mean Jordan Peterson (JBP, I think are his initials)? If so, we don't agree on what a facist is, and yeah, if you're someone who views people through such an extreme lense, we're just not a good friend match.

Oh, I'm not going to pretend I know anything about India's politics. I can only speak from within the context of the US.
