Anti Hindu Buddha and nasty thoughts of buddhists:
The undeniable fact is that Buddha indeed compared Brahmins to dogs & concluded dogs were better.
Even traditional commentary on the verse says "Buddha comes Dogs to Brahmins and dogs come out better"

2. To begin with, even the name of the Sutta is "Sona sutta"(Dog Sutta).
But this Sutta has nothing to do with Dogs. It is a rant against Brahmins. Dogs features only when they have to be compared with Brahmins.
And every comparison concludes that Dogs were better than Brahmins

3. What is this Sutta about?
It is about Buddha's stereotyping and generalisation about Brahmins.
He begins by saying that Brahmins of his time mated with females of all backgrounds. He compares Brahmin sexual mating pattern with that of dogs.

Here Buddha condemns Brahmins of his time for intermarrying with other varnas/communities and compares them with dogs who mate with every breed.
This is not an innocent comparison. Sexual behaviour of dogs is known for its licentiousness and promiscuity. https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0195561697500568

5. This is the reason why words like "kutti", "bitch" denoting dogs is used as a grave sexual insult.
Although modern Buddhists flaunt egalitarianism now, for the historical Buddha intercaste marriage was a horror that amounted to licentious social behaviour resembling dogs.

6. To push further his caricature that Brahmins were licentious like dogs, he then accuses Brahmins of indulging in sex even during periods.
7. Buddha then makes his third accusation.
He says all Brahmin males of his time buy and sell females. Note the gross generalization and stereotyping.

8. Buddha then condemns Brahmins of his time for earning money.
Note that according to Buddha a Brahmin has to either beg for food or starve himself to death. He has no right to earn or stash anything.

9. Buddha then condemns the all Brahmins of his time for overeating and "swelling their bellies".
The fat tummied Brahmin is a very common stereotype that Buddha also uses.

10. In every comparison, dogs comes out better. Buddha makes these laughable claims in the process
1. Dogs are not licentious as Brahmins.
2. Dogs don't mate during periods unlike Brahmins.
3. Dogs don't sale their women unlike Brahmins.
4. Dogs eat only twice unlike Brahmins

11. Stereotyping is a very common weapon used in racist generalisation.
Did Buddha enter the private bedrooms of every Brahmin house to check whether Brahmin females method during periods?
Did he take a survey to check that every Brahmin sold his wives?

12. If we have to stereotype, it must start with the Buddhist monks themselves.
Buddhist monasteries were full of nashedi intoxicated Buddhist monks. Wine production in ancient India was a business over which Buddhist monks held monopoly.

13 (A). During excavations in swat, Archaeologists found wine making distilleries inside Buddhist monasteries.
Buddhist monks loved to indulged in wine revelries.

14. There is no evidence that Brahmins of Buddha's time where more lustful voracious wife-sellers than other communities (I would like to see if such evidence exists), but it can be said that Buddhist monks themselves indulged in winemaking intoxication and fraud counterfeiting.
15. Creating an imaginary past caricature for appropriation to use as a stick with which to beat the current community is a common trope in religious polemics.
When prophet Muhammad extolled ancient jews like Moses, he had no love lost for jews of his present.

16. A Sculpture from Buddhist centre of Nagarjunakonda proudly displays devote Buddhist Ikshavaku king Virapurishadatta trampling Shiva linga with his feet(c.3rd century AD)
17. Buddhists later invented a deity named ๐๐๐๐ฃ๐๐ฃ๐ฉ๐๐ ๐ (๐จ๐ช๐๐ ๐ ๐๐๐๐ฉ๐ฎ ๐๐ค๐๐จ ๐ฃ๐ค๐ฉ ๐๐ญ๐๐จ๐ฉ ๐๐ฃ ๐๐๐ง๐ก๐ฎ ๐๐๐ก๐ ๐๐๐ฃ๐ค๐ฃ).

18. In their scriptures, Buddhists also circulated stories of a Bodhisattva named Vajrapani kiIIing Hindu God Shiva.
Shiva is described as a very Malevolant being. He deludes people with his Malevolant Shiva bhakti.

19. Bodhisattva Vajrapani orders Shiva to accept Buddhism.
Shiva does not comply. A battle ensues. Shiva loses the fight. Both Shiva and Durga fall at the feet of Bodhisattva Vajrapani.
Yet, Shiva is eventually killed by this Bodhisattva.

20. Buddha also had a lot to say about ancient Indian epic character revered by Hindus.
About Draupadi, Buddha says in Kunala Jataka that although Draupadi (Krishna/Kanha) was wed to 5 pandava princes, she lusted for many more and she "became the wh0re of a hunchback dwarf".

21. Buddha accuses sati Draupadi of having an illegitimate affair with hunchback dwarf. In Dasaratha Jataka, he says Rama and Sita were biological siblings, thereby reducing the "Sita Rama Kalyana" performed by Hindus every year to a mere sibling incest.
22. When JNUwalas addressed Goddess Durga as a "wh0re", entire Right-Wingers erupted.
Well, such JNUites have not fallen down from the sky. Their antecedents were also in India.

13(B). During ASI Nagarjunakonda excavations, mint machine was found in monasteries.
In Satavahana state, no one except king had the right to mint coins.
The the archaeologist Longhurst concluded that Buddhist monks made their own coin.
It means, they indulged in counterfeit.

23. Once upon a time, Hindu-dharma was largest religion of Cambodia. AngkorVat was largest Hindu temple of the world.
Today, there is no Hindu-Dharma in Cambodia. Like most C Hindu temples, AngkorVat was converted to Buddhist temple & 8 armed Vishnu Murti was converted to Buddha

24. The Buddhists also invented a deity called Trailokyavijaya (He is absent in early Buddhist texts).
This Buddhist deity kills Shiva. He stands on shiva's decapitated head and tramples Goddess Parvati is breast with his feet.

27. When Buddhist deities themselves love to trample and sexually assault Goddess Parvati with their feet, is it any wonder that some modern Bheemtas addressed Goddess Parvati as "wh0re"?
28. I could go on and on. But here is the thing. When Adi Shankaracharya opposed this cult tooth and nail, it was not because he was intolerant. He was more knowledgeable and wiser than all of us put together, and we need to trust that everything he did was for the greater good.
29. Many people thought that Gautama Buddha is the incarnation of Sri Vishnu.
I have not much to say. But just one observation.
There was an Upanishad name Allopanishad which declared Akbar was an incarnation of Sri Vishnu!
