The RSS thing is way overblown, you guys, starting with your leader, handsome, have RSS psychosis.
Take me for instance, voted Modi twice, as things stand, I will vote a third time to keep him in power too. (unless something changes)
We support Kashmir's article 370 abrogation, ballsy move, LOVE Modi/Shah for it.
We support the CAA
Will support the NRC/NPR and kicking out illegal BD muslims
We want a UCC
Most people I know agree with all of the above but none are in RSS, aren't particularly religious at all, they're mostly atheist/agnostic/apatheistic. We even make fun of the RSS, and Modi at times. He's no great dear leader, just someone who is carrying out the will of the people of this country so he has our votes for now.
Religious discussions are not allowed and discouraged here, plus they tend to get rotten and a shit sling fest most times so we wont go there but the Hindu mindset, the dharmic philosophy or call it what you want.. will be very tough for strict followers of Islam to even grasp. Basically, when you guys sprout out stuff like "religious fundamentalism".. you're completely missing the point and are waay off.
There is a wave of cultural nationalism in India, or civic nationalism.. not based on religion but culture. There actually are muslims that do support the BJP. Other groups apart from Hindus also support the BJP and their agenda.
RSS and their nazi admiring muslim hating roots have nothing to do with how things are playing out today. There is not going to be any genocide of muslims, and what divisions and fissures exist in society here have always existed. PM Modi has done nothing in terms of making people hateful or anything.
That cultural nationalism is full of contradictions as it really is brahmin nationalism. It is hollow really as can be seen in farmer protests.
You are saying that Most people I know agree with all of the above but none are in RSS, aren't particularly religious at all, they're mostly atheist/agnostic/apatheistic. We even make fun of the RSS,
You people do not like and support RSS. bit only BJP led Govt,
But the reality and fact is Modi led BJP Govt is a political wing of RSS, among others, and they are carrying out and implementing RSS wishes / ideology and agenda, so all who support Modi and BJP are supporting RSS knowingly or unknowingly, accepting or denying wont change the facts.
He knows it. He doesnt really hate rss. Infact he cunningly disowns it whenever need to brandish his respectabiltiy in forums like this. But he wont lose any sleep of rss policies effecting muslims or others.
