this is why i have never felt that south asian campus orgs represent me or speak for me. you are all spending too much time focusing on "hinduphobia" as a cover for hindutva and absolutely no time focusing on solidarity for oppressed communities in the west and in the homeland. https://twitter.com/hinduoncampus/status/1385688380147703815
i won't deny that you experience racism in the west (i know! i have too!) but that is racism, not "hinduphobia". the latter is used by hindutva types to silence caste activists and by using it no matter how much you say you oppose casteism you are aligning yourself with them
adding one more thing to this thread: this is VERY SPECIFICALLY an upper caste/savarna thing! you don't see non savarna people talking about "hinduphobia" (well, you barely see non savarna diaspora in these circles in the west at all...) ask yourself why is that
