So, why do you think Hindus don’t get a real Hindu party which can enforce their cultural agenda? Brief answer: the naivety of Hindus makes them think about nation first and religion later. Although they have only one homeland in the world, they still struggle to make the optimal choice. This all-encompassing attitude of Hindus allows other slackers to pursue their pointed agenda while taking for granted that stupid Hindus will take care of the economy and infrastructure anyway. No surprise that every time some freak raises the bogey of real Hindu issues, he is shot down by the many “Economics is Everything” naysayers whose numbers have rapidly swelled in the Hindu fold now. The usual copybook response then goes along the lines: “Don’t you think rural electrification is for Hindus as well? You are mistaken if you think a poor farmer cares about Ram temple.”
Just to fix ideas: Hindus need to learn and start playing the realpolitik game. It’s not that bad economy and bad roads don’t adversely affect Muslims, but that is never an election issue for them as they know someone else, i.e. Hindus, will make sure that roads are built, the economy is bolstered and the nation is protected by Hindu soldiers anyway. So making economy, infrastructure or security an election demand becomes redundant for them. Actually, no matter how hard BJP tries to sell its developmental agenda, Muslims never buy it. Once Hindus start playing realpolitik and caring for their own agenda more than caring about the universe, they too will start seeing a change in not just politicians but also Muslim voting patterns because, for the first time, the spoiled brats will have to take up the mantle of nation building given that Hindus would no longer consider it their sole responsibility.
The case about Hindu and Muslim responsibility is like that of a cuckoo laying eggs in a crow’s nest. The cuckoo is the Muslim here and the crow is the hard-working Hindu. It’s not that the cuckoo doesn’t care about its eggs, but it outsources its labour to the crow and takes time to pursue its own goals, while the crow is left with both its own and the cuckoo’s eggs to attend to and fails to pursue its own goals despite being the bigger bird. Similarly, Muslims have cleverly intermingled their interests with Hindus to make sure it becomes difficult for Hindus to separate the two, like the crow can’t differentiate between its own and the cuckoo’s eggs. Once the crow starts saying, “You know what — I feel like behaving irresponsibly for a change and I don’t give a shit about any eggs. Let all eggs die,” the cuckoo will have to take corrective measures if it has to ensure survival of its species and make alternate arrangements for its eggs henceforth.
It’s the same with Muslims. They have outsourced development, economy, infrastructure, social harmony, soldiering and martyrdom to Hindus, so that they can themselves pursue their narrow goals knowing very well that everything else is taken care of by the bania Hindus. This arrangement has worked great for them. But Muslims freeloading on civilized society is not restricted to India or even the 21st century. You can go to any Western country and Muslims are usually among the lowest income groups and use social security to make ends meet. Why wouldn’t they freeload since civilized society will not let them die when they demand breaks for namaz five times a day and get fired from work to go back and live like parasites on social security? But this is not a new phenomenon, as reported by British officer Ibbetson in 1881. This is what he had to say:
Reading the above summary, it seems as if Ibbetson wrote these paragraphs just yesterday. This common trait of free riding explains Muslim lethargy and poverty across the world, where they simply exploit the civilization-building efforts of Kafirs while at the same time pushing their societies to adopt Muslim norms such as halal products and burqa through democracy. In military terms it is called “grabbing the enemy by the belt”, as espoused by Giap against the Americans during the Vietnam War. Vietnam mixed its soldiers with Americans in close-quarter battles to prevent Americans from using air power because they knew that if American bombs fell, American soldiers would die too. In the end, Americans decided to sacrifice a few soldiers, which turned the tide in America’s favour.
Similarly, if Hindus decide that they want something — like Ram Mandir or Article 370 — they can get it. But today if you ask a random Hindu about it, he would say, “Let the courts decide, else there would be riots,” knowing very well that it is not just Hindus who would die or bear the losses. Yet Hindus unilaterally take a step back, despite the fact that in case of riots consequences are usually far worse for Muslims. This is how this ideological subversion works and has been working since the time of Gandhi. The mantle of maintaining social harmony is placed singularly on Hindu shoulders while Muslims free ride and the likes of Owaisi and Azam Khan go around threatening riots and stop the larger community from peacefully pursuing its right to build a temple for one of its most important civilizational heroes, that too in his birthplace. Now, no one is advocating violence here, but this is how realpolitik works. Politicians know this very well. Once Hindus overcome this self-enforced mental burden and say, “We don’t care and let it happen,” both Muslims and politicians will have to change their tune.
Similar was the case in Gujarat prior to 2002 when riots were taking place daily but Hindus were told not to retaliate for fear of escalation. Dead cows were being thrown into temples but Hindus were told not to retaliate because “there will be a riot”. Then there was an attack on Somnath temple but Hindus were told not to retaliate because “there will be a riot”. It took the burning down of 56 saints in Godhra when Hindus lost their patience and said, “Let it be.” After that day hardly anyone ever dared to use that phrase to scare Hindus into submission again. The same word which had been their strength became their weakness after that. Not to mention, there have hardly been any mentionable riots in Gujarat post-2002.
Again, without looking at it as an incitement to violence, one can clearly see that the more considerate you are, the more attrition you face. Hit the reset button once and things can progress differently. Think about it: if Mamata gives a monthly allowance to imams while poor Hindu priests go hungry, whose fault is it — Muslims, who know how to bend the system, or Hindus, who don’t know their priorities? So a reset is needed in the political sphere, but for that Hindus need to unite and realize the importance of their identity. Once all political parties realize that there is a certain red line which cannot be crossed without paying heavy political costs, no one will take Hindus for a ride. No one would dare coin terms like “Hindu terror” for a non-existent phenomenon while hounding you with Islamophobia, even though most terrorist activities are [sentence incomplete in archived text]. All these jumlas that “the economy will improve, have patience” are like giving a lollipop to infants and nothing else. If Hindus themselves are complacent and keep saying they are very happy with BJP’s performance, even though it has not moved an inch on the cultural Hindu agenda, and overtly express their commitment to vote for BJP in 2019, then what makes you think BJP won’t start taking Hindus for granted?
If you don’t like parasites eating your tax money through doles, stop paying taxes — what will then happen to the parasites? But Hindus won’t play that game and continue to pay taxes so that “roads could be built” while whining about socialism. So if BJP keeps going down the path it is going now, what will it show at the end of five years? “We prevented some hypothetical riots and built some roads, but please give us another chance in 2019 to build Ram Mandir, abolish Article 370, bring UCC and repeal RTE. We will definitely finish them next time.” Well, Congress has been making promises for the past 70 years as well and even Manmohan can run the economy, so what is the difference between BJP and Congress? Is it just Congress plus cow?
