Hinduphobia (or
Anti-Hindu sentiment) is an irrational
fear or
hate of Hindus and Hinduism.
Hinduphobia is a form of violence largely perpetrated against the largest surviving group of indigenous peoples and their continuous culture.
Hinduphobia includes physical, emotional, psychological, economic and social abuse. It includes victim shaming, silencing and the overt
denial of centuries of atrocities against Hindus that continue
today. It includes smashing idols, destroying temples, forced conversion, murder, persecution, bride theft and ethnic cleansing.
It utilizes suggestion and innuendo, unfair characterization, strawman attacks, denigration, mocking the dress, language or customs, accents and in the
media and academia, the distortion of traditional beliefs, practices or texts. Outright lying such as use of Hindu terror and smearing, portray Hindus and Hinduism in a negative
light.
It includes cultural and ethnic genocide, epistemicide and the misappropriation of Hindu material and intangible cultural heritage.
Hinduphobia is calling Hindus cow
piss drinkers, pagans who are superstitious, backward, and worship
weird Gods. Or dirty extremists who
hate women, are oppressive, savage cannibals and rapists.
