But if people start to understand this they'll start to understand how their interpretation of Gandhi was total bullshit. That Gandhi in reality wasn't against violence, in fact the was pro-violence. He was above violence. I believe he said at one point that he sees violence as one way to achieve an outcome. Not the only way, ideally not the best way, but sometimes necessary. As in, he wants violence done, but not by him, and not against him or any Brahmin. He, personally, shouldn't be anywhere near it. He is not a man of peace, he is a general sipping tea over maps, hundreds of kilometers from the front. I mean Gandhi achieved a lot. Just not by peaceful means. Multiple millions died in the partition wars, giving Gandhi what he wanted (ie. India). He just wasn't directly involved in the killings (I mean, yes, arguably only Pakistan was, but ...) Hell, it's even true that he actively tried to prevent it and succeeded in some of that ... with more violence. > Also, intermarriage or intermixing between castes is discouraged in the Hindu scriptures. That's putting things mildly. Very mildly. There are prescribed punishments.
