Let’s do a post mortem of this ill-informed thread by this white supremacist and debunk all the fake myths mentioned here point by point with solid evidence.

Let’s debunk ARYAN INVASION THEORY

https://twitter.com/keithwoodsyt/status/1879163139788554541

1. Claim: Aryans came from Steppes in Central Asia
Answer: If Aryans came from Steppes why does no Sanskrit literature including Vedas mention of any original homeland or anything about Europe?

All descriptions of the so-called Aryan lands(variously referred as Saptasindhu, AryaVarta, Bharatvarsha) be it Vedas, Ramayana, Mahabharata, Puranas or any other Sanskrit literature refers in details about Indian Subcontinent.

Forget Vedas or Aryan literature, not even the so called Dravidian literature mentions any form of invasion.

How did everyone forget about such atrocities?

2. Claim: Aryans conquered Dravidians

Answer: connection between so called Aryans and dravidians
1. 2000 year old Sangam literature shows Chola & Chera kings claiming descent from the so called Aryan God Rama.
2. Greatest Chola king, Kari Kala, was a great patron of Vedic religion.
3. Pandya king NedunJelyan used to perform Vedic sacrifices.
4. Dynasty of Pallavas made their capital a great centre of Sanskrit learning.
5. Another Pandya king fed both the armies in bharata war.

Why were the kings on invaded land so supportive of their invaders?

Now coming to Dravidian literature.

1. Thiruvallur regarded him as avatar of vedic God Brahma
2. Great Alwar Bhaktas Frequently invoked Vedas themselves.
3. The great Andal said “those whose voices are blest sang Vedic songs”

The greatest blow to Aryan-Dravidian language divide comes from the fact that a Vedic Rishi Sage Agastya is credited to be the originator of Tamil language by Tamil Sangam literature itself.

This debunks the Aryan-Dravidian divide itself.

3. Claim: Vedic Aryans invaded native Dasyus.

Answer: Rig Veda itself clarifies
1. Battle between Aryans and Dasyus were simply battle between light & darkness.
2. Arya or Aryans does not describe racial group but a quality.

Now coming to Battles between Aryans and the Natives.

Archeological sites of IVC reveal no signs of weapons, or burned fortresses, or even skeletal remains of people who fought in battles.

NOT A SINGLE PROOF OF ARMED CONQUESTS ANYWHERE.
How exactly did they invade then?

4. Claim: Oh but Dayanand Saraswati talked about Aryan Invasion.

Did he?

Answer: Dayanand Saraswati actually opposed Aryan migration theory.

He was probably the first dispute this myth emphasisng that arya in the Veda referred to a moral or inner quality.

5. Claim: Throughout the Rigveda Aryans are described as fair skinned.

Answer:
Rig Veda 10.31.11 describes Vedic Rishi Kanva as dark complexioned

Many other Saptarshis were dark complexiond
Shri Krishna & Shri Rama the most revered Hindu Gods are dark complexioned.

Vedic people used to pray for dark complexioned sons.
Draupadi, who was considered one of the most beautiful woman, was dark complexioned.

6. Claim: Indo Europeans brought horses. There is no record of horses in Indus valley Civilisation.

Answer:
-even the most flamboyant proponent of Aryann Invasion theory accepted presence of Horses in Indus caravan

- Archeologist BB Lal found horse teeth and bones in kalibangan, Rupar and lothal.

Archeologist Bhola Nath certified identification of tooth of horse.

A picture of horse bone found in Surkotada.

7. Claim: David Reich says outside origin of of Vedic civilisation

Answer: David Himself claimed I dus Valley Civilisation is the largest source of ancestry for south Asians.

Shinde who carried out the Survey with David Reich says Vedic Era followed naturally from the harappan civilisation/ IVC and wasn’t introduced by Aryans.
