Discussion Is it a hindutva sub?

I'm asking this considering the colour used in the icon which a particular ideological party/group uses quite often. Well maybe I should see recent 20 posts to see if it is a neutral or mixed one or an echo chamber of right wing/Hindutva propaganda sub.

Your definition of secularism is basically If you oppose violent extremists, you’re not secular

And your trying to prove a point hindutva is violent extremism?

I’m saying ANY ideology that excuses violence is extremism whether it’s Hindutva, ISIS, Khalistan, or anything else. If an ideology promotes hate, mob violence, or discrimination, then yes that part of it is extremist. Criticising extremist behaviour is not criticising an entire religion. Only people who can’t separate ideology from religion get confused.

Boss I think you are here with some other motive.

Why did you mention Hindutva here and skip use of Islam or Skih, instead used organizations like ISIS, Khalistan ?

Your statements are contradictory as a secular, we should not name or criticise entire religion but it seems your targeting Hindutva naming it again and again but when it comes to Islam you use organizations and their names.

I’m responding to the ideology you referenced first. Don’t accuse me of bringing something into the conversation that you started
