Most westerners have a subconscious and unacknowledged bias against Hindus. This shows up everywhere. I don't blame them for it, it's a product of decades of misinformation and misunderstanding. In internet forums, criticizing or mocking Hindus is perfectly acceptable but any comments trying to present Hindu culture in a fair light get quickly classified as nationalistic or flamebait. The canonical example being r/India. We're still years away from where this bias is seen and acknowledged for what it is. For what is worth, I saw nothing in the original parent comment to classify it as flamebait. It was a perfectly valid opinion about how Hindu texts have been misrepresented by Western scholars. Thanks Krishna for your comment, I for one learned something from it.
