As an american-born Indian (Hindu background), the Hindu nationalism truly saddens me.
There are many religions that are good until they get aggressive and radicalized, shinto-buddhism comes to mind, or Christianity and Judaism for that matter, and it's a shame to see a religion meant to be based on peace and self-enlightenment turn into just another "I'm better than you because my parents were better than yours, ad infinitum!"
If you turn your sadness to curiousity and ask the question "who benefits?", "who benefits from RSS-BJP's Hindu supremacism?", "who has been benefiting from 2014?" , your sadness will turn to anger.
The RSS-BJP is a Brahmin-Bania combine, they won't do a thing without seeing personal benefit in it.
Yeah, I thought about it.
The banias and other moneylender castes really did get out of control, they're using Hindu nationalism to enslave the people again.
This is absolutely tragic.
