I was with some Indian friends of mine yesterday and they started discussing about some Indian politics. They mentioned that the internal political situation is getting worse and that the current government policies of disenfranchising minorities and low caste communities can lead to civil war (something to the effect that they can only take it for so long). I Googled Indian news and this is being talked about by some prominent Indian politicians as well (along with the news about many lynching of minorities and low caste ppl). I thought Indians were quite civilized and non violent people. What am I missing?
Non-violent? OP must have never traveled on a road in India. Attempting to cross the street is like an episode of ninja warrior
Oh.. That is your exposure to violence? Slow claps dude
*many*
Ur a grammar Nazi
All wars start with majority of civilized and non violent people, and end with majority of civilized and non violent people as well.
Rofl, Indians are quite the pussies to start a civil war, how do you think the British ruled our asses for 200years. Now, riots due to religious fundamentalism, that’s more of our thing, yeah that shit could break out, but unlikely.
Maybe the upper caste elite NRI tech population are. Not everyone else. India is and has always been a violent society.
there is a lot of communal hatred between Muslims and Hindus as well as lower castes and the rest of society in India...as much as the Christian church asks to love thy enemy does not make all Christians lovely people it is the same with inherently non violent Hindus! Definitely getting worse recently
We are peaceful with the outside world;just not amongst ourselves .Ethnic classism/regionalism/racism is crazy real
This
Things are being exaggerated by media, things are the same as they were. If anything the new government had done a lot of good for common people They have done some tough reforms which the opposition leaders cannot digest I see India doing good for next 10-20 yrs

Genuine question. Im disconnected with Indian politics. What bad has Modi done?
Total BS. This civil war thingy is ratcheted up by Trinamool Congress party and Congress party since India has identified more than 4 million illegal Bangladeshi Muslims who infiltrated India and voting only those parties who are supporting illegal infiltration. Bangladeshi infiltrators have to go back period. And no India ain’t going for civil war .. only the pseudo liberals will lose their mind and vote bank. Good riddance !
Exactly this. We talked about this as well. If you take the case of US, forget about third world country, and ask people in US to prove that they are citizens of this country, it will be very hard for some (as some child births are by midwives and many Amish don’t apply with county office). In third world, its almost impossible for a lot of people to bring forward a proof. So is this a tool to victimize a section?
No no section is being marginalized. Not only illegal Muslims but also illegal Bangladeshi Hindus raw being identified and deported. So all this bs regarding ONLY Muslims being marginalized is crap. I know this because I AM for that state. I know what’s going on. So tell those friends of yours to stop spreading the false narrative.
India had many wars
