The Indian media is filled with so much BJP/right wing propaganda right now. Especially on YouTube and Instagram. That stupid modi has brainwashed so many young Indians into his hateful ideology. Its hard to find a rational indian who thinks for themselves on social media.

You’ll find them going around harassing muslim content creators and even straight up just Pakistani ones. This leads them to have an illusion that we indians are obsessed with them when in reality, it’s just a loud minority.

However, I’m not seeing much of a push back against this from the leftist side. In fact, any time a leftist try to add some sense into these dumbasses minds, these removed still don’t listen and twist their arguments. Take dhruv rathee for example. (I know he’s not a leftist but his video on kerala story was mostly accurate.)

In the US, there’s also a lot of bullshit happening. In fact, they’re also going through what india is going through as well - religious extremism. But Christianity in their case. Christians there are trying to ban abortion, ban lgbtq people, ban drag queens, ban science books etcetera. And just like the hindutva is demonizing Muslims, Christians are demonizing lgbtq people.

But there’s also a very strong leftist movement there who are there to oppose those things. But in india, the leftist movement is far weaker and silenced by stupid right wingers which is not good because it will further make it easier for people to fall for their propaganda. We indian leftists need to stand up and do something more to strengthen our movement. Because looking at the current situation of this country, it’s only going to get worse.
