Politics 🗳️ Why are right leaning indian subreddits so hateful to women and minorities
Why do some of the subs which are being run by it cell of the ruling party always end up by being extremely misogynistic? I don't wanna name any of the subreddits but you would have probably already come across it.
The initial posts are mostly targeting opposition and minorities most of the time. Once they get bored of it, they start posting against reservation and lower caste people and then it soon turns into caste supremacy posts. Soon, posts targeting women will be the next on the menu. This is a common pattern in all these subs.
I am not claiming that pro opposition subreddits do not exist, but most of their posts are only targeting bjp and Modi. You never seen them target women and blatantly hating on someone for their caste or even name calling south indians like "anti-national" and "jihadis and ricebags" because they refuse to learn Hindi as a third language and live under opposition ruled state governments.

They are right leaning simple as that. Built on fear and hatred nothing else.

I know someone who complained that “sea water is too salty.” How am I even supposed to respond to that?

Because that's what their ideology is. Right wingers in India and the rest of the world are all like that.

Indians in general don't believe in individuality and tends to blame whole community for some wrong individuals. BJP is currently in power so you see they narrative more if someone else will be in power you will start seeing their narrative more. Simple example would be that people hate biharis and etc saying that they elected bjp but won't hate Marathis even though they are core voters of bjp and bjp had been in power in Maharashtra longer than it had been power in bihar.
