Funny you say that, most of them are namesake secular. Filter out countries that have had large scale ethnic cleansing or genocide in the last 70 years. Filter out those countries which have 99% muslims. Filter out those which do not have some form of sharia imposed. Even though both muslims and Hindus in India want a better future for themselves and their children. Muslims have shown their willingness to engage in arson, destruction of public property and stopping economic activity or progress to push their own Islamic politics at every opportunity. You must be really blind to not have observed this.

BJP is pushing for a Hindu ethno-fascist state. Are you citing Islamic states as a form of what-aboutism or as a template for inspiration? Also, for your laundry list of objections that you created with zero research - here is Albania https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secularism_in_Albania#Debates_about_secularism https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secularism_in_Albania#Debates_... There are more, but I will let you do the research. Maybe you will find an example in a secular muslim majority state where the prime minister hand picks a terrorist under trial (whose phone and vehicle were used to bomb a church/temple) as a candidate for election.

  > BJP is pushing for a Hindu ethno-fascist state The relevant word there is obviously "Hindu", but the Permit Raj system in India is more than 70 years old. Is there really a national alternative to the BJP that's less authoritarian/corporatist/fascist and more freedom oriented, in a way that would meaningfully benefit the average Indian?

    Virtually any party would be less authoritarian and fascist. Manmohan Singh was the last prime minister. The average Indian would benefit from a better economy, employment opportunities, fearlessness from cow and other vigilantes, sedition charges for expressing political opinions. Muslims in kashmir, lakshwadeep and Sikhs would feel safer. BJP losing would boost national pride. Right now Indians are considered a joke. I have been personally asked to go drink cow piss on various forums. Plastering cow dung all over the body and ridiculous statements about gold in cow milk will be stripped from text books. Money invested in ayush ministry and central vista will be used in health spending. https://www.reddit.com/r/shitbjpsays/ https://www.reddit.com/r/shitbjpsays/

      > fearlessness from cow and other vigilantes ... Muslims in kashmir, lakshwadeep and Sikhs would feel safer. This is perhaps your most compelling point. It's also cherrypicked however since radicalism and violence are coming from both the Hindu and Muslim sides. Picking one side over the other is just not what good government is about, this goes for Hindus obviously but also Muslims.

  Every muslim majority state is a facist state. India's diversity is safe as long as it is a Hindu state. I would like India to become a Hindu Rashta. With the creation of Pakistan, it is only fair for India to become a Hindu state. The history of Islam & Christianity clearly show the genocide that they have carried out across the world. We would like to preserve what we are. You are just being an Islamic apologist.

    I like your confidence. Are you citing Islamic states as a form of what-aboutism or as a template for inspiration?

      If India is not declared a Hindu state, there is a good chance that it becomes an Islamic state. Like Pakistan, one denomination will start killing another, it will become a hellhole, like much of west Asia.

        The root issue is that there are entities that profit (mostly in retaining their relevance/power) when two group of people are pitched against one another. Because such entities can proclaim themselves to be the protectors of the group that is the majority from the other group that could be a minority group. So you have to understand that once all Muslims are driven out, such entities will pitch two classes within Hindus itself. And in all probability, this could be what happening in places with Muslim majority. So the real solution is not to drive a group of people away, or declare a "Hindu Rashtra" but to recognise such entities that are profiting from these conflicts, and render that tactic toothless. You will magically see the killings stop.

        We do not have conflicts with other groups. I am not so convinced that there is no fault with Islam considering history as well as the neighborhood. It takes a lot of self loath and stupidity to buy into this argument mostly made by young or ignorant leftists.
