#53For overall context, the current Indian government has taken an increasingly fascist approach towards Indian Muslims. It has been jailing Muslim activists without due course and trials, demolishing homes of Muslims participating in peaceful protests and turning a blind eye to fireband Hindu leaders openly calling for genocide against Muslims. https://m.thewire.in/article/communalism/beyond-blasphemy-in... https://www…

In many parts of the world Facebook is synonymous to Internet. If you can't post on Facebook, you're pretty much toasted as a public figure.
That brings to mind a certain orange fellow; but he doesn't seem to be toast (not yet).
US is quite diverse with Twitter. Which is let’s say… not so popular in many other markets.

Then the largest democracy in the world is free to make their own social media.
I can imagine outcry if India banned Facebook :D but they banned TikTok, so maybe FB time will come too.

let me understand this right holding rallies / calling violence are synonyms to one another all comes under free speech ?
What do you think the KKK would do at those rallies? Share cookies?
Even in the US with its exceptional.free speech laws, calls for violence or.murder are outlawed.

Hmm these articles quote people like Rana Ayyub who have been known to scam people [1]. And Javed mohammed who incited violence over mere words. As for Bangalore specifically I don't agree with that ideology, but there is an influx of illegal Bangladeshis and Rohingyas in the city - I will not ignore that either.
Now I wonder if you are aware about what recently happened, where two Muslim men beheaded a man in broad daylight for merely supporting someone's right to speak about their prophet. The poor man just happened to support a BJP spokesperson who was defending her faith. There have been multiple instances where there were massive riots and protests calling for the spokesperson rape and beheading. No to mention a leaked document about islamisation of India [3]. I personally do not think Muslims are being oppressed in light of such activities. On the contrary I think the game of media and setting narratives is being played on an international level to depict India as being anti-Muslim.

We've banned this account for nationalistic and religious flamewar. You can't do this on HN, and you've been doing it repeatedly. Not cool.
