    Hindu nationalists blame the Mughals for British colonialism and claim oppression under their rule. Modi specifically has some call outs for some of their emperors, because that’s what reasonable people do, beef over something that happened 400 years ago under a monarchy.

    All while ignoring the Hindu purges of Buddhists, Jainists, and Muslims themselves btw

      I’m from India and they call for destruction of mosques because they were oppressors but when pointed out that temples were out of range for dalits(lower caste) to even look at they start using slurs. It’s incredibly sad when the younger generation is more active in this bigotry.
