  1. Anyone who can make you turn a blind eye to atrocities can make you believe absurdities

  2.  @paperspeaksco  Video shows a clash of rival sports fans and claims this is "Hindu extremism" (but not Muslim extremism? I didn't see any violence that looked particularly extreme or one-sided). Video shows a woman in hijab saying she feels "terror" (from what exactly? Muslims and others have their ethnic marches all the time. Should the rest of us feel "terror" from this?) Video shows someone yelling "don't touch me" (but we don't know who they are, or what the circumstances are). Video then claims that this is "radicalism from India". It seems to me that VICE is trying to contrive their own slanted narrative here. In India, videos can be banned for promoting ethnic slander, ethnic tensions, etc. I don't have a problem with that. Why don't you get Tucker Carlson to comment on this -- you know, that guy your fellow liberals want to see banned. Liberals like to scream "disinformation" at those they disagree with, while demanding they be banned -- well, I see this video as disinformation. See how it works both ways? I'm a lifelong atheist, and I believe that all religions are man-made fiction. But I know that VICE is not above peddling its own fiction.

  3. Are you sure? Any screenshot to prove that? Or are you just saying anything off the top of your head?

  4. No, it's the opposite. The ideologically bankrupt Left had no solutions for the Indian people, and were instead indulging in predatory divide-and-rule practices to pit everyone against Hindus, and also pit Hindus against each other. If you look at Modi's govt, they've completely devoted themselves to pursuing development, and this is what's made India stronger. But the ideologically bankrupt Left don't like being out of power, so they have to double down on their narrative that Modi and his party are destroying India. The actual metrics and statistics say the opposite.

  5.  @paperspeaksco  - which Delhi riots are you speaking of? Are you referring to the 1984 riots perpetrated by the Left-wing Congress Party (the same ones who hypocritically lead the charge against the Indian right)?

  6. Modi is visiting the Al Hakim mosque in Egypt right now - but whenever he pays his respects to Islam, the biased Left-wing media make sure to avoid reporting on it. :face-blue-question-mark:

  7. yeah, but cartels fighting for money what are these guys fighting for again? a chance to be picked off by the Taliban -- who are flooding in from another country nextdoor? that's a country they can't even get permission to attack, because it has 6 times their population & nukes, so there's no real path to victory so of course they'll flee to save their own lives -- that's what you do when you've been told to fight a war with one arm tied behind your back you may remember that phrase from 50 years ago -- ARVN did the same thing as ANA

  8. Ohh, I couldn't help but notice your username and wonder which community you're from. Gee, should I be surprised that you're making sectarian comments?

  9. Islam spread through imperialism. Look at how many features of the religion are naturally suited to imperialist practices. That's no coincidence.

  10. No, America fucked up -- the same way it fucked up in Vietnam. Back then, they tried to work with ARVN, but they still collapsed, just like ANA's collapsed. The real problem in both wars was that the enemy was flooding in from the country nextdoor -- but decision-makers in Washington wouldn't allow their military forces to invade the places where the enemy were coming in from. That's called fighting a war with one arm tied behind your back Imagine if WW2 had been fought that way. What if US & Allied powers sent troops to liberate France, but they were forbidden from attacking Germany nextdoor, because "it'll escalate the war", "it'll make the war messier", "it'll dilute the war effort", "it will just make the Germans angry"? Would the outcome of WW2 in Europe have been the same? I doubt it.

  11. Mahatma Gandhi had a phrase for those like the producers of this VICE story: drainpipe inspectors :hand-purple-blue-peace:

  12. You mean the Left in India don't leverage off religion? You don't know Indian politics very well at all, do you.

  13. This was not purely some internal domestic civil war. This was a war where a smaller country (Afghanistan) was being invaded by a larger country (Pakistan). Same thing as the Vietnam War, which was also lost. Smaller South Vietnam was being invaded by larger North Vietnam. So the insurgents they were fighting were not merely just locals, but there were also lots of enemy combatants flooding in across the border from North Vietnam nextdoor. Likewise, in this latest war, Pakistan nextdoor was hosting the bulk of the Taliban insurgents. In both wars, decision-makers in Washington didn't want to invade the country nextdoor where all the enemy support was coming from, because that would "dilute the war", "expand the war", "escalate the war", "destabilize the region", etc, etc. So obviously then the enemy had a sanctuary from which they could continue to get lots of support and regenerate their manpower and supplies to keep fighting indefinitely. That meant the path to victory was cut off. You can't win a war by fighting with one arm tied behind your back. And this war was fought more stupidly than Vietnam -- at least in the Vietnam War, US taxpayers weren't funding the North Vietnamese. In this war, Pakistan was funding, recruiting, arming, training, supplying the Taliban -- and the United States was funding Pakistan!

  14. :body-blue-raised-arms:Video shows a clash of rival sports fans and claims this is "Hindu extremism" (but not Muslim extremism?

Video shows someone yelling "don't touch me" (but we don't know who they are, or what the circumstances are). Video then claims that this is "radicalism from India". Video shows people chanting "Jai Sri Ram" and calls it a "radical" slogan. So does that mean any Muslim who calls out "Allah hu Akbar" is then also a radical? Most Muslims would not agree. Video points to bulldozing of illegal constructions and calls them "coded symbols". Video shows Hindu speakers making intolerant speeches, but totally avoids showing Muslims who do the very same thing. I'm a lifelong atheist, and I believe that all religions are man-made fiction. But I know that VICE is not above peddling its own slanted fiction.

  15. Hindus were causing riots in Australia? Or wasn't it actually militant Sikhs doing this? Perhaps you don't remember the spray-painting and vandalism against Hindu places of worship? I'd really like to know which incident you feel was caused by Hindus.

  16. I think you'd better take a look at a whole swathe of countries located immediately to the west of India and notice how they match your behavioural description

  17. Washington is what failure looks like. Biden is what failure looks like. Capitol Hill is what failure looks like. Repeating the same mistakes as another failed war -- Vietnam.

  19. Yeah, like how all those Hindus hijacked the farm protests and started ramming tractors into police and chasing them with swords. Oh wait - that was somebody else who did that. Who could that be? Take a look in the mirror.

  20.  @aymenkhan7552  - says the Pakistani, from the country which arms people around the world. Ask families of 9/11 victims

  21. Or Afghanistan. Islamists flocked there from all over the Muslim world, to fight in a jihad against the Soviets, and in the process gained warfighting experience and formed broader networks. AlQaeda was formed from the Afghan conflict, and later the Taliban.

  22. Islam colonized and conquered India, it's not Indians who went out and conquered the Middle East. Look at how many Hindu temples were destroyed by Muslim conquerors, who even chronicled this in their diaries of conquest. Look at how many mosques were built on the remains of destroyed Hindu temples.

  23. Not at all - Modi says "sabh ke sath, sabh ka vikas" (development for everyone together), but Muslim activists only try to parrot innuendo and hearsay, which is what their religion compels them to do towards others.

  24. India's economic development has certainly been hindered by socialism, and that's why people want to leave there. Pakistan's has been hindered by Islamism. Modi and his non-Leftist govt, on the other hand, have been committed to reforming India's economy and stop the flight of its talent abroad. I don't see Hindu Indian emigrés fighting against the societies they've emigrated too, like some people #cough#cough#Muslims#cough# do. There are no Hindus rioting or burning down neighborhoods in Sweden over Korans or other holy books allegedly being disrespected. There are no Hindus running prostitution rings of young girls in Rotherham. There are no Hindus shooting up nightclubs, or carrying out serial vehicular homicides, or bombing marathons. But Vice would like you to imagine there are. All because India continues to buy Russian oil&gas -- like so many Europeans themselves do.

  25. Same thing was said about ARVN in South Vietnam.

  26. The ideologically bankrupt Left were breaking India into pieces, and that's inevitably provoked a backlash.

  27.  @paperspeaksco  - don't play the Godwin game, and compare anyone and everyone to Nazis. The fact is that Nehru spun that story about RSS having Nazi leanings, because Nehru didn't want any other organizations or parties challenging him. Today's Indian Left have simply picked up that ball and continued running with it. Subhash Chandra Bose, a widely revered father of Indian independence, voyaged to Imperial Japan and also Germany during WW2, to get help in liberating India. After his plane went missing, Nehru had Bose's entire family put under surveillance for decades, fearing potential political challenge from Bose's return. Let me also mention the massive famine that killed over a million people when your chief Nazi-fighter Churchill diverted food away from Bengal. So don't give me any fucking lectures about the Nazis, when my grandparents fought in WW2 while not even being free people with the right to vote. You wouldn't have won WW2 without us - not that we got any meaningful gratitude or compensation from you.

  28. Taliban come from a much bigger and more powerful country than Afghanistan -- ie. Pakistan.

  29. Hindus in India get killed by other ethnic groups all the time -- it's been going on for a long time too. And that's because Hindus themselves are just a lot of small ethnic groups who are individually very easy to beat up on. The moment they get together to defend themselves, then folks like you (and VICE) want to cry fascism. For decades leading up to 9/11, Hindus were routinely being murdered by militant Islamists from around the region. The West had seen fit to arm these Islamists in the name of going after RussiaRussiaRussia -- and Hindus were mere collateral damage not worthy of giving a second thought for. Now Westerners are saying "What are these awful Hindus banding together for? They must have natural innate spontaneous fascist qualities!" Welcome to the new Brown Peril™

  30. The Euro-centric West only care about Christians first and foremost, and don't care about 3rd world religions or cultures being persecuted. So it's very easy for westerners to demonize non-western faiths and cultures, as part of the general western tradition of punching down.

  31. They don't want to get their heads blown off.

  32. They're simply hiding their bodies behind a wall while poking the gun over the wall (or around the corner) and firing -- because they're trying to protect their own bodies from return fire. They don't care whether they hit an enemy or not -- they just don't want enemy bullets hitting them.

  36.  @thebeanstalker631  - Islamists have carried out numerous terror attacks across the world. Nobody compares to their violence, which include mass-casualty attacks. India's embassy has been physically attacked multiple times, but show me even one instance of an attack on Pakistan's embassy. Bullies only understand the language of force, which becomes legitimate for self-defense.

  37.  @thebeanstalker631  - Islamists can only howl at the Moon. Indians put their flag on the Moon.
