racism, labor struggle
i remember a little while ago i saw a news story that said Indian people were smashing up solar panels because they were afraid it would use up the Sun's energy. i dug deeper and found that it was actually a worker action because they hadn't been paid for installing the panels. be extremely skeptical of news from abroad that tries to paint foreign working class people as primitive and not having class consciousness

I feel like most of these are cases of projection as this sounds more like what white conspiracy theorists would do.

@danishcookies @dankwraith exactly, i remembered an article about something like this from the USA so i went looking: https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/north-carolina-town-rejects-solar-panels/
but it's more enticing when it confirms negative stereotypes of foreigners, than if people like you say it

Similar to the "warning of authoritarianism" that is included in most red scare tactics.
