And how do you define “Hindutva” as far as my knowledge regarding Sanskrit says, it means being Hindu
In
this post some hours ago I said :
Well, I like two concepts in Hinduism - (a). Brahman ( The One God, which you point out ), (b). Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam ( The world is one family ). But it is contradictory that the Hindutvadis in India and among the diaspora hate Islam which should not have been so because Islam preaches about The One God, and the Hindutvadis also hate Communists even though the Communists desire a humanity without national borders.
So any Hindu who believes in the above contradictory things, in irrationality, socio-economic and gender oppression, general anti-humanity and in the nonsense of Savarkar and co. is a Hindutvadi.
I quote the
misogyny and suffocating views of Yogi Adityanath :
He believes women need male protection from birth to death and their ‘energy/power’ should be regulated or controlled, lest it become worthless and destructive.
He adds the shastras say that a woman is protected in her childhood by her father, by her husband in her youth and by her son in her old age — so that way a woman is not capable of being left free or independent.
Such views are why the Hindutvadis recently vented outrage at the Alia Bhatt ad for Manyavar suitings which just called for Hindu weddings to have Kanyamaan ( respect for the bride in her husband's home ) instead of Kanyadaan ( traditional and unfortunate Hindu abandonment of the bride by her parents into the hands of her husband and in-laws ). Did the ad say anything wrong ?
and such flop trolls like Swara who recently quoted a tweet of a so-called journo “Noman Siddiqui” who in his tweet said that his taxi driver told him to leave India as Yogi is coming and all…

1. What is a "flop troll" ? Swara is not a troll in the first place to be a hit or a flop.
2. Before you rush to bob your head with crooked Hindutvadi "news" agencies you should consider if the journalist might have been receiving death threats, like the way the organizers and participants of the 'Dismantling Global Hindutva' conference received or like Kohli's daughter received which is the topic of this thread.
Stop playing your victim card everywhere, we’re not interested
Who is "We" ?
you compare us to Taliban then I’ll ask you the religion of all UN-designated terror outfits.
We don’t blow in middle of cities, nor we roam with AK-47s.
1. The Hindutvadis are the original Taliban. A major problem for humanity. Notice the title of that conference - Dismantling Global Hindutva.
2. The world was thinking that India was a peaceful land of Gandhi, waving coconut trees and elephants. A bliss. Only a few people knew about the atrocities in India that have been going on for the last 3000 years. But now the world is waking up to the threat posed by Hindutva, one of that awakenings being that conference.
3. Were the Hindutvadis Sadhvi Pragya, Colonel Purohit and co. gentle, cat-adoring intellectuals who liked to smell roses in the garden which had a fountain ? Or did they bomb Muslims in Malegaon 13 years ago ?
4. Who if not the Hindutvadis assassinate four well-known progressive Hindus ( Narendra Dabholkar, Govind Pansare, MM Kalburgi, Gauri Lankesh ) between 2013 and 2017 ? Or were those assassins somehow Muslims ?
5. Hindutvadis don't roam around with AK-47s but with traditional single barrel and double barrel rifles, swords, spears, trishuls, knives and sticks. Quite openly. Anyone can search the internet. Hindutvadis receive training in rioting and massacring progressive Hindus and of course Muslims. Some years ago I had met the state secretary for my state of one of the public Communist groups and he told me that once some 25 to 30 RSS goons barged into his house with weapons and wanting to murder him but that day he wasn't at home.
Don't pretend that the Hindutvadis are some progressive, anti-violence, pan-human, future-thinking rationalists. I don't expect the NATO-boot-licking UN Security Council to ban Hindutvadis immediately but that time will come. But much of the world, including the beloved Israelis, are waking to the irrationality and crimes of the Hindutvadis. No sensible person or even that not sensible wants the company of the Hindutvadis except crooked government leaders. So I suggest you to leave them.
