I find the Oxford Student Union culturally insensitive to India’s Hindu culture & enabling of religious bigotry for failing to consider the culture of an Indian student, one who students determined to be Hindu & then targeted her for removal from the position she was elected to.

Someone who’s culture was almost destroyed by Islamic invaders, religious bigots who killed 80+ million specifically targeting Hindus for brutal slaughter, destroyed 10s of thousands of Temples & India’s universities burning millions of documents erasing our shared human history.

Hindus understand genocide & do not take the Holocaust or targeting of a people for extermination over religion lightly. They take it seriously as they've been targeted by religious bigots for centuries. India gave refuge to the Jews persecuted by Christians & Muslims.

Let’s also remember India did not only suffer at the hand of Islamic religious bigots, but her culture & civilization also suffered Christian invaders calling themselves “colonizers” who held inquisitions burning Hindus at the stake while destroying Hindu Temples.

British Christian “colonizers” followed, looting India to enrich their own country, they installed a rigid caste system to segregate Indian society, a casted system that modern Christian & Islamic religious bigots use to attack Hindus with, blaming caste falsely on Hinduism

Those British Christian colonizers also starved Indians in order to feed their war machine killing millions in the process.

Those British “colonizers” helped Muslims break India's ancestral Hindu homeland to create a separate Islamic nation so Muslims could be free from Hindus they demonize & hate. Since Christians also demonize Hinduism, the British helped break India on religious grounds.

So yes, it’s a fair comparison for someone who's culture has suffered the brutality of religious invasion/colonization to state someone like Rhodes, who supported the idea of perpetuating the genocidal, cultural & civilizational destroying force of British colonialism to Hitler.

But since Christians still can’t own up to their religious bigotry or the damage colonialism has done, nor acknowledge the religious bigotry of Islam against Hinduism, it’s not surprising they can’t reflect on how someone from India may view Cecil Rhodes

Since the world still supports Christianity & Islam in their religiously bigoted war against India’s Dharmic culture, especially against Hinduism, perhaps the good students of Oxford aren’t ready to address the religious bigotry they & western Universities are silently supporting

Racism is bad, we all know this. It exists in many cultures & countries & its good that it is finally being addressed in some nations, although many, like China, are not dealing adequately with it, where Indians & especially black people are readily discriminated against.

But far worse is the religious bigotry that has plagued our world for centuries & killed hundreds of millions of innocents. Why is it worse? Because racism can be dealt with, people can be thought to understand how foolish it is to judge someone on the pigment in their skin.

But religious bigotry is far more insidious and pervasive because those engaged in it think they’re doing Gods work. They think they’re “righteous” in demonizing polytheistic cultures like Hinduism, targeting Hindus for conversion & trying to end India’s Dharmic culture.

They believe they are “righteous” to target Hindu politicians, Hindu organizations & any Hindu who seeks a position of leadership.

Western Christian nations & Islamic nations aren’t addressing it, they perpetuate religious bigotry against polytheistic cultures far more ancient than their own. Religiously bigoted professors proliferate in Western academia, using their positions to push their biased views.

Christian organizations & churches from every denomination spend billions targeting India’s Hindu majority for conversion while demonizing Hinduism & India’s Dharmic culture. All this happens while the media from those western nations push endless propaganda against India.

Islamic nations are no better for Islam, per the Quran, not only demonizes polytheists, it calls to convert/kill them. It’s the reason, even in our modern world, India's suffered decades of violence, terrorism & killing as Muslims continue to target Hindus & demonize Hinduism.

India is a nation that was physically divided by Islamic & Christian religious bigots and remains internationally divided over religion with Christians & Muslims lining up on the left politically with Liberals & Communists to stand against India’s majority Hindu population.

Islam & Christianity are highly political. If Hindus try to defend themselves & their culture, they're attacked from within and without. Called fascists, Nazis & terrorists. Attacks against Hindutva come from Christians & Muslims seeking to stop any political defense of Hinduism

Islamic nations & Western Christian nations support those left political parties in India & push propaganda against Modi, the centrist BJP political party & the majority Hindu population calling them right wing fascists, Nazis, “Hindu terrorists”.

It’s nothing but political propaganda driven by the religious bigotry or Islam & Christianity. The labels of fascist, Nazi, Hindu terrorists, Saffron terror used to hide their own religious bigotry against Hinduism. Modi himself is about as far left as America’s Bernie Sanders.

Christian & Islamic nations use their media to push propaganda against India & her Democratically elected PM because he's a practicing Hindu. They simultaneously attack the BJP, a political party that is majority Hindu & the worlds largest Hindu volunteer organization, the RSS.

Not only was Samant unfairly labeled racist & anti-Semitic, the LGBTQ community attacked her & labeled her as transphobic when she was only trying to be inclusive. My kid is a member of the LGBTQ community & had no idea it was inappropriate to say “women & trans women”

Their lack of acceptance of her apology is especially ironic considering the Hindu culture recognized 3rd gender & even non-gender thousands of years ago while Christian & Islamic cultures that still actively demonize Hinduism also still stand against the LGBTQ community.

Oxford's student statements & excuses for what happened ring hollow. Her Hindu religion came to light and a witch hunt was conducted to remove her from the position she was elected to, the people pushing for this clearly looking for anything to remove her.

No matter her apology, once it was determined she was Hindu & her parents committed the “sin” according to Islamic & Christian bigots of supporting Modi & supporting the court decision to allow Hindus to rebuild Ram Temple that was destroyed by Islamic invaders, she was targeted

The propaganda influence machine in the student body went to work, targeted her, labeled her falsely as racist, anti-Semitic & transphobic & demanded she step down. Due to ignorance or misunderstanding, the Oxford Student Union enabled religious bigots to target a Hindu student.

The follow up to defend these actions is normal in a world where Christian & Islamic religious bigotry is allowed to flourish. They'll make every excuse they can, but never acknowledge the abhorrent ingrained religious bigotry that is enshrined in the Bible & Quran as “Gods word”

For those who don't like to click links, here are screen captures of the one link given above. It's Cecil Rhodes "Confession of Faith" which he wrote in 1877. While Oxford may worship him, it's clear how an Indian student or any from a colonized culture reading his views may not.

And here is the text of first clause of Cecil Rhodes first will that Samant referenced. Again, anyone coming from a nation that had to endure British colonialism & Christian imperialism will not have a positive view of Cecil Rhodes for obvious reasons.
