He’s lying. It isn’t his “universal values” at work here. Ask him why he attends the Pakistan Independence Day celebrations in Brooklyn year after year while boycotting Israel Day events. Pakistan is an actual one-religion ethnostate by law (unlike Israel, btw).

This obscures why the term emerged in the first place. "Hinduphobia" entered the diaspora lexicon years before rightwing nativists were referring to Hindu immigrants as an "invasion" and protesting in front of temples, when elements within the progressive left coalition were engaged in their own, subtle brand of anti-Hindu agitation. While the right's anti-Hindu animus is driven by race, economics, and culture, the left's is ideological and political in nature. It's not "Hinduism" and Hindus they oppose, but "Hindutva," etc.

What exactly is the difference? If "Hindutva in America" fear mongering were limited to the existence of organizations that are actually linked to India-based Hindu Nationalist orgs, then this distinction would make sense, tho even in this case the influence and clout of such orgs is highly exaggerated.

But in any case, that's not how it's meant. "Hindutva" has over the last decade + been used an all-encompassing cudgel against any Hindu intellectual or religious expression that refuses to accede to an increasingly radical view of Hindu history as one singularly defined by Brahminical oppression and, politically, any advocacy that seeks to establish Hindus as a coherent "religious community" with independent social and political standing.

If you accept these two premises as true, then everything else makes sense: Diwali is Hindutva, Holi is Hindutva, Hindus learning about the historical persecution of Hindus is "Hindutva," Hindus opposing Affirmative Action is "Hindutva" (even if Hindus still support it at higher rates than other Indian-origin religious groups), Hindus trying to correct skewed school textbook material is "Hindutva", etc.

"Hinduphobia" is a coarse but understandable reaction to this state of affairs, and any critique that fails to acknowledge what Hindus are reacting to is prejudicial. And I say this as a critic of the Hindu diaspora's growing fixation on the term.

[Amit Schandillia @Schandillia]

Pakistan is sometimes interpreted as Persian roots Pak (pure) + Stan (land).

Pak itself comes from the same etymology that gives us pāvaka in Sanskrit, same meaning. When used as a root in a compound, the word shortened to pū (remember “pure”?).

Stan is also cognates with Sanskrit sthāna.

So now that Pakis are so proudly appropriating Sanskrit and Panini, I invite them to rename their country from Pakistan to Poosthāna (पूस्थान).

Ideally accompanied by a namānkarana ceremony complete with all necessary yajnas.
