@ranjona @VivekT Sanghis always had a soft corner for Hitler. Most of them , unless they are very smart and know who they are talking to (and therefore control themselves), sooner or later will blurt out "what Hitler did was right". At least most lower rank Sanghis are like this. I think they take what he did to Jews as some sort of model about what they should do to Muslims.

@shinjini @Vishsai @ajithegde @ranjona Agreed. Initially even Hitler was welcomed by most of the leaders. Times have changed as far as dissemination of information is concerned. There cannot be pogroms without the world knowing the next day. The situation is not ideal but it is not hopeless either.

@VivekT Iām not that optimistic. I see atrocities happening the world over. And no one is doing anything about them. Look at the Rohingya crisis, as an example. Or the refugee crisis from Syria, when it was happening. Most countries would rather send them back to Syria to die than allow them into their borders. @Vishsai @ajithegde @ranjona

@shinjini @Vishsai @ajithegde @ranjona Point taken. Just go back in time a few decades and imagine yourself a citizen of the erstwhile Soviet state. Similar atrocities were happening there and the Ukrainians, Latvians, Belarusians et al were wondering whether they would die under the Russian yoke. One fine day, suddenly they all were liberated.History is full of such events.That is my source of optimism

@sanjayuvacha Doesn't surprise me. Nazi insignia has been always been trendy kinda thing for people. Hitler and Nazi are too normalised here in India. Words like Hitlershahi, Hitlergiri are regularly used to denote rather benign stuff. I remember there was popular show called "Hitler Didi" on Zee a long time back.

@ashwin_baindur True. But to counter the current RW narrative, we need to put some of that individualistic nature aside and come together. I know not all left/liberal/left of centre have the same beliefs either. Some of much more open and liberal than others, and then we beat up those who arenāt āliberal enoughāI think there comes a point when we have to define a common ground and stand together.

@stux @sanjayuvacha Indian right wing (current govt) has a perverse admiration for Nazis. Their ideological gurus have openly praised what Hitler did to the Jews. Far from anyone disowning this past, the Indian right wing is proud of it and wears on it their sleeve (or on their car as you can see here)

@Agnostic_Indian Right but it gives you an idea.
