We Hindus should admit that we are toast. Most of our original homeland is gone. The last remnants of Hindu population are being wiped out in Pakistan and Bangladesh.

We Hindus have ZERO cultural power in the modern world. Take a diverse world city like New York.

In 2015, the NY mayor made Eid an official school holiday. Told Hindus demanding Diwali holiday to get lost.

Imagine... if Hindus cannot project global power in New York City, where in the world will they be taken seriously?

The Muslims have Linda Sarsour, Mehdi Hasan, Reza Aslan... ferocious defenders of their place in the world.

Do we have such faces to push Hindu cause?

The England cricket team is stopping tradition of celebrating with champagne because it offends Muslims.

Can you imagine them stopping beef eating? LOL!

We Hindus cannot make our presence felt in London or NY! Such losers we are!

(4/n)
Do you know that Brussels airport gives official worship space to Christians, Muslims and Jews?

Hindus who asked for a space were given the middle finger.

We have ZERO cultural capital.

Our top movie stars rush to America to act in TV shows that call Hindus terrorists.

Do you know that Quantico has a policy that no Muslim will be ever shown as a terrorist?

Can you feel the emasculation of Hindus?

It's not just Muslims. The US House of Representatives just passed a law banning dog meat consumption AND asking other countries to do the same.

See how the West protects and projects its values. Muslims do that too.

Who is projecting our values? Nobody.

If you disrespect a hijab or a burqa, you become a global cultural outcast ... the much denigrated "Islamophobe"

They make us dance around in circles, saying that our Hanuman looks too angry or our Ganesha looks too militant.

International agency like Reuters removed a picture of Niki Haley near a Swastik in a Hindu temple because it might be seen as pro-Nazi!!

Nobody cares to tell the world that our Swastik isn't Nazi. But everybody in the West gets a daily tutorial on respecting hijab.

In Britain, NGO groups took a sacred Om symbol, morphed it into a Nazi Swastika and projected it on British Parliament for everyone to see.

Same Britain where cricket team stops using champagne because it might offend Muslim players.

Nobody gives a damn about Hindus because we don't give a damn about ourselves. There is a Hindi proverb that even a mother won't feed her baby unless the baby cries.

We Hindus are treated like dirt because we never ask to be treated better.

When Hillary Clinton wanted to project an inclusive image in her campaign, she brought a Pakistani to speak at her nomination.

Nobody thought of giving a platform to someone from world's largest democracy. We were taken for granted.

(12/n)
We Hindus have to demand respect. We are the world's 5th largest economy. We built the world's largest democracy. We are a nuclear power. But we are so busy being the "good kids" of the world that we have turned into doormats.

(13/n)
Globally, we have to come out of the engineering and medical schools, the science nerd conclaves and make our voice heard. Yes, we Hindus want to mingle with the world like sugar in milk. But nothing wrong in expecting the world to notice our existence.

(14/n)
Instead look at our situation in India. We are still fighting to enjoy rights equal to minorities!!!

And only a small fraction of Hindus even cares. The remaining are happy to fight among themselves and lose out as a group.

(15/n)
Forget even the loss of homeland due to partition. Look at Kashmir, from where we were kicked out just 30 years ago. Tell me honestly if you believe we Hindus will someday be able to return to Kashmir.

You *know* that demography will ultimately prevail. We Hindus lost.

(16/n)
Take Lower Assam, from where Hindus have been flushed out and M community from Bangladesh settled in droves. Tell me honestly if you believe that someday we will regain these Hindu homelands.

(17/n)
Let me sign off this thread with this: unless we Hindus demand our place in history, we will become history.

In culture, as in evolution, only the fittest survive. And if we dont fight for our place, someone else will take it. It's only natural.
