Today is Diwali, the biggest Hindu Festival and modern day Hindu Fascists have brainwashed people into killing themselves by burning billions of crackers in a single night.

The air is quite literally unbreathable and looks white. Yet people won't stop burning crackers. No one wears a mask btw.

Hinduism is easily the most destructive religion on Earth right now, the pollution generated from rituals and festivals is unimaginable. As an ex-Hindu, this casteist piece of shit religion is a bane on Indian society actively working against the betterment of the Indian people. I wish the Communists in India actually had the balls to do a revolution in the 1950s and we wouldn't be in this mess.

I was speaking more from an environmental context since Hindu festivals and rituals are polluting af. I don't think Christians or Muslims have anything this close.

But to add to your point, I definitely agree with you. Hinduism is not THAT type of destructive. Christianity will easily take the cake if we factor in colonialism.

Zionism is actually pretty similar to Hindutva. Both ideologies are about establishing racial supremacy in some ancient homeland by killing or displacing people you don't like. Modi did commit a pogrom against Muslims in 2002 but has not tried something similar after that. They mostly focus on letting their "Paramilitary" and street gangs do their bidding nowadays with smaller scale riots and mob lynchings.

FYI, Hindutva is an Extremist Hindu ideology which is dominant right now. Much like Zionism in Judaism. A huge number of Sane people do exist in both religions who oppose these ideologies.

Yeah I see what you're saying and agree. Also I think it's fair to say India as geographicql region especially cannot be subjected to more pollution and environmental destruction. It's in such bad shape I see India as being one of the regions of the world that will experience the most destructive environmental driven collapse and that's before you factor in the complete catastrophe that is climate change
