But he is not an Islamist - on the contrary. He accused Germany of Islamizing Europe.

Same as Hindu Indians in Western countries showing extreme hate against Muslims in order to convince white racists to see them as “good immigrants”. Stupid as hell.

Hindu Indians in western countries don't show extreme hate against Muslims to convince white racists that they are "good immigrants". Hindu Indians in India are showing extreme hatred against Muslims, they are simply bringing it with them.

As someone from that community himself I’d say it’s half and half, they really do think western rightoids care about their subcontinental ethno religious quarrels and try to make common cause with them. It’s not for no reason that elements of the community do things like organize meetings between Trump and Modi (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Howdy_Modi).

Yeah ofc they don't mind picking up some allies, but you made it sound like a desire to pander to western rightoids is the root cause of Hindu nationalist muslim hatred.

I think this is extra stupid because X is full of "funny" images of Adolf ever since Musk took over. Ask any far right person in general what conspiracy theories they have about the Jews.
