World News
A community for discussing events around the World
Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

Originally, it is a Hindu chant praising one of Hinduism's Gods. Violent Hindu supremacists have turned this into a call for violence, it is now a much feared war cry.. Much like 'Allahu Akbar' which means 'Allah is great' was turned by Islamic terrorists into their war cry.
So I don't know a lot about that region. What do Hindu supremacists believe (aside from the obvious supremacy part)?
They believe in
They don't believe in
Which points are ridiculous?
When have Muslims opposed them? Haven't Muslims only reacted in self-defence? and now they've stopped doing even that.
There is no satanism in Hinduism, satan is a Christian concept and shaitan is a Muslim concept. There are asuras and rakshas in Hinduism, but Hindu supremacists don't consider Muslims to be those, They call Muslims 'Aurangzeb ki aulad' after the Mughal Emperor Aurangzeb. Even though the mahant of Kashi Vishwanath asserts that Modi destroyed more temples with his KV corridor than Aurangzeb in his lifetime.

All my comment have been about Hindu supremacists. They hate Muslims for being Muslims. Hate, not oppose, its hate! Their hate makes them lynch Muslims while making them chant JSR or sing 'Vande mataram'.
There is no Christian-Hindu stuff, It is Hindu supremacists hating Christians for being Christians. Thats what the ongoing ethnic & communal cleansing in Manipur is about. The hate is why they denuded, paraded naked, and gangraped the women in the video that recently went viral. Hate is why they chopped off David Thiek's head and displayed it on the wall of bamboo poles.
During the farmers protest, the same Hindu supremacists even hated farmers for being farmers.
That is what majoritarianism is about. it is about hating, oppressing, and villianising minorities.
Hindu supremacists were certainly born human, their actions make them monstrous. Whether they were raised that way or braiinwashed by whatsapp university, godimedia, or their society this is the path they choose. That's on them because the social media they use to absorb hate also has democracy, inclusivity, compassion, and fraternity that they choose to ignore.
My account is filled with news and views on politics because that is what I want to talk about. Should I talk about rainbows & waterfalls when the country I love is burning and my people are being dehumanised and killed?
Then please educate yourself before putting your thoughts on the subject.
