@i_contemplate_ yes, but why? Long established patterns of Western thought play a role, but IN PRINCIPLE the left is eager to overcome those -
@i_contemplate_ IF western left was approached by Hindu interlocutors speaking their (left's) language. Juluri trying a little bit of that.. -
@i_contemplate_ but complaints come from Hindu Right. While Left wing Hindus already in opposite camp. You guys need Pankaj on your side ;) -
@omarali50 Inaccurate to call them Left wing 'Hindus.' They are just leftists - that's it. Not a semantic objection - delineating in/out -

@i_contemplate_ Tho i agree that (for whatever historical reasons) easier to find left wing Muslims who strongly identify as Muslim -
@omarali50 Yep this was my point in broad strokes, not tent-closing :) -
