1. Intersectional View of the Hijab Controversy

Hijab, as my very existence proves, is the ultimate expression of freedom. It doesn’t need logic as logic is a patriarchal tool to fool rationally marginalized people. Hijab is beyond logic.

2. The enemies of freedom – Brahmins, men, & Hindus in general – are seeing the Hijab controversy in an inverted way. They are using logical props by giving constitutional, secular and democratic arguments. The truth is the other way around.

3. Democracy cannot judge Hijab. Hijab will judge democracy. Hijab is a symbol of freedom if Muslim women use it. It needs no other logic. No toxic rationalization. The very act of Muslim women wearing Hijab proves that Hijab means freedom.

Yajur Veda

Leftists, please invent better terminology than #BrahmanicalPatriarchy
The same culture that produced women philosophers, rulers, warriors, even ritualists. To an extent that no historical society of Europe or middle east can hold a candle. Yet to accuse it of exceptional misogyny is malicious. These people have no interest in equality but politics.
What do they have to show for it?
A secondary, corrupted source like Manu-'Smriti' that has no historical bearing and which no one even reads. And they define the whole span of history with it.

What must be shown to them?
The untampered glimpses into the past from the 'Sruti'.

For the first time in history! The word atom(anu) appears in literature. 4000 years before Dalton, 1500 years before the Greeks.
The Gita is older than the oldest surviving Zoroastrian Gatha. Older than the oldest book of the Jewish Torah. Or Baudhas or the Jainas. Older even than the 1st atomist Kanada Kashyapa himself. Yet it is the only widely read 'scripture' that treats of atoms, mind, space, time etc
But Muellerian historians have worked here too. They try to make it younger than even the new testament of christianity. Reading the wikipedia page, one gets the impression that it belongs to the common era, having undergone the same corruptions as the rest of the mahabharata.
