Indonesia and Malaysia was rich in culture before it became Muslim.

The culture only survives in Bali today.

It's not only Muslims though. Khmer culture died after the Thais invaded and destroyed Angkor in the 1500s. Cham culture died after Viets invaded.

In SE Asia the only places were traditional culture survives is Burma, Thailand, and Bali.

Modern Khmer culture is pretty much a ripoff of Thai culture.
Indonesian & Malaysian culture is more like a Islamic bastard culture.
And Phillipines doesn't have culture
Laos and Vietnam has communist culture with traces of traditional culture

It's funny how in India, the whole dichotomy between nationalism and imperialism, the memory of oppression and exploitation etc is inverted in relation to the West.

In the West, leftists cannot shup up about the crimes of European imperialism, how African nationalism, Arab nationalism and other kinds of Third World nationalism are necessary to change that, how these oppressed peoples are deserving of sympathy and how white people have to pay reparations for their crimes.

Meanwhile in India, Marxist historians systematically whitewash the record of Islam as an oppressive, genocidal and totalitarian force that literally killed tens of millions of people and unleashed havoc and destruction in the whole subcontinent. And the Hindu nationalists that try to reclaim Indian heritage from oppression are depicted as "fascists" instead.

It shows two things.

1. Leftism is a cancer and they should be lined up and shot.

2. The relation between leftism and Islam goes further than mere convenience for criticizing the West.

I'd say, about this last point, that leftists inherently love Islam because Islam is a centralizing religion that requires rules by a priestly class, and that's the kind of rule that leftists want to universally establish, therefore they will support Islam against the West because the West "oppressed Muslim countries", and they will support Islam against India because "Islam improved India by oppressing it".

>>696579
It did though.

>>695182
Hindu nationalists are pissed because India is a literal cesspit full of shit, rape and bad hygiene. It wasn't always like this. At a few points in history, India was one of the richest and most enlightened places in the world, but the descendants of those civilization builders and philosophers who live in the shit covered wasteland that is India today would rather try to assimilate and copy western culture because of their inferiority complex (one of the fine British legacies left in India). The India we see today is a joke compared to the Hindustan of the past.

An aspect of Vijayanagara architecture that shows the cosmopolitanism of the great city is the presence of many secular structures bearing Islamic features. While political history concentrates on the ongoing conflict between the Vijayanagara empire and the Deccan Sultanates, the architectural record reflects a more creative interaction. There are many arches, domes and vaults that show these influences. The concentration of structures like pavilions, stables and towers suggests they were for use by royalty.[118] The decorative details of these structures may have been absorbed into Vijayanagara architecture during the early 15th century, coinciding with the rule of Deva Raya I and Deva Raya II. These kings are known to have employed many Muslims in their army and court, some of whom may have been Muslim architects. This harmonious exchange of architectural ideas must have happened during rare periods of peace between the Hindu and Muslim kingdoms.[119] The "Great Platform" (Mahanavami dibba) has relief carvings in which the figures seem to have the facial features of central Asian Turks who were known to have been employed as royal attendants.[120]

>>696688
Wrong. I'd rather have a united Hindustan where relations among the common Hindu, Muslim and Sikh were stable as they had been for hundreds of years prior to the cancerous Europeans invasions which created divisions among Muslims and the rest of the population. A united Hindustan is what India needs, and the reality is that it won't happen, ever. At least not soon anyway. The people of India and Pakistan are too far up their own asses with meaningless nationalism that they fail to see that their unity is the only thing stopping them from progression. Oh, along with terrorism.

>>696712
oh fuck off, there was no romantic idea of being united and stable. It was always a tinderbox going off over time, and it still does. Instead of de fanging islamic nationalism gandhi stoked it and ruined the chance of muslims as a whole coming under a common pan indian banner.
The post independence saudi influence of indian muslims just adds fuel to the fire.

>>696527
>Indonesia and Malaysia was rich in culture before it became Muslim.
It was also chaotic as fuck.

The Islamic concept of Ummah created centralized states in Malaysia and Indonesia. Brunei being the classic. Islamic tribes in the Philippines stopped fighting their neighbours across the river when they converted to Jizzlam and only fought the boogaboo animists instead.

>>696579
Clearly, the Islamic domination was not enough to civilize India. Even after centuries, the demented ideology based on a caste system, human sacrifices, which abhors the present and idolizes poverty and human misery, remains and grows strongly.

Brahmanism is a disgrace, and should have been wiped off the earth. But except for the Turkish sodomite Ghazni, no one seriously set out to eliminate this harmful ideology.

As for the Indian conservatives, I quote Hayek:
"Conservatism is only as good as what it conserves."

It's easy to be retard and a conservative. Is sufficient to want to preserve a dementia or a savagery. Incidentally, Brahmanism is both.

>>696647

>>696732
Modern Hindu nationalism doesn't have anything to do with Brahmanism, and it's hated by leftists for the same reason they hate Catholicism and Confucianism. Because there are the only religions that provide for the principle of subsidiarity to decentralize political power, instead of worshiping central authorities and centralization.

If you've actually read Hayek, you would understand the importance of that. I'm sure he would have approved Hindutva and the RSS.

I doubt very much that he would support a program that wants to create a ethnocracy a country of dozens of religions and hundreds of languages and peoples.

It is, indeed, an absolute idiotic and incoherent program - and the only common ground is the cultural and religious Hindu heritage - from where comes the eternal butthurt of Indian conservatives with foreign domination (or even local, as long as non-Hindu), particularly the Muslims and the British, against which they have an irrational hatred, and against which they often invent absurd statistics, while feeding the weirdest national mythology.

>I doubt very much that he would support a program that wants to create a ethnocracy a country of dozens of religions and hundreds of languages and peoples.

They don't, though, that's just leftist slander.

The purpose of Hindutva is to empower Hindus not by asking handouts from a central state, like Blacks do in the U.S., or Muslims in Europe, but by engaging in self-organization, the building of voluntary societies and the defense of civil society.

That's why commies fear Hindu nationalism so much. A lot of the power of the international communist movement is derived from their stranglehold over the intellectual realm, which them influences organizations of civil society. Most NGOs are, if not communist themselves, intellectually influenced by the methods and ideas of the communist movement, which trickles down from the own education of their leaders at Marxist universities.

It's not like that in India, where the RSS, inspired by Hindu nationalism creates a "counter-civil society" that weakens the attempts of communists to mobilize society for their own purposes.

I'm not Indian, actually, I'm Brazilian, so a lot of the sentiments of Hindu nationalists seem strange to me, like their rejection of Indo-European migration models for nationalist purposes, but I can forgive that if the trade-off is the largest, and might I say, only, popular, mass-based right-wing political movement in the world today.

>>696919

This.

There is a reason that Europe went to the Indian Ocean and not the other way around. It's not because there was a thriving trade in the North Atlantic that they wanted to expand, it's because there was a thriving trade in the Indian Ocean that they wanted to take over.

>>696921

>>696926
what do the commies have against this

>>696899
>Then why did the Europeans focus on India and not Indonesia
They did focused on securing the entire Indian ocean, including East Africa, India, and Indonesia. The reason they wanted to control this Ocean was so they could control the spice trade coming from Indonesia. This is very, very basic history.

>I think mixed it up with the indus valley civilization
The Indus Valley civilization had next to nothing to do with later Indian civilization.

>>696909

My dear, I'm also Brazilian, and Indian nationalism model looks horrendous. It is a grotesque artificiality (which strongly resembles Kemalism in this respect) trying to invent an identity where there is none. In the absence of another element for this purpose, seeks Hinduism, and creates a Manichean system ("us against them") around a purely fictitious ethnic identity. In the process, alienates much of the Indian population, which happens to become the enemy within (non-Hindu).

Bordering on schizophrenia: Want the unification of the subcontinent, while excludes from its patriotic delusion good part of it. Preaches the unity of the nation, and at the same time tries to tear it in half.

>>696971
Did you read my post at all? They were trying to secure the entire Indian ocean, because the Indian ocean hosted the spice trade. Those spices came from Indonesia. Trade with India was obviously valuable too, just like trade with China, Japan, Persia, etc, but it was the Indonesian spices that were the main motivating factor.

>>696664
>It also created a self sufficient food production regime
you mean Norman Borlaug did

>>696986
The comparison with Kemalism doesn't work. Kemalism is secular, left-wing and centralizing political movement, while Hindutva is religious, right-wing and decentralizing. The Turkish equivalent to Hindutva is the Gulen movement, another mass-based right-wing movement I admire from afar.

The only similarity between Hindutva and Kemalism is the silly mythology, but that's not what is important. Hindu nationalism can't "divide" India because it's not a revolutionary ideology that seeks to seize power to enact social change by decree, like Kemalism.

I wish there was something like that in Brazil to counter the whole hegemony of the left. There are only the evangelical churches but they have been hypnotized by parliamentary politics and so they don't care about self-organizing their bases and educating their children.

They preserved about as much (or less) than the Muslims. When it comes to destroying and erasing cultures, Christianity surpasses even the Mongols. Pic related.

Really though, if you want to stop rejecting history, all of this info is readily available online or at your local library (which I remind you is free to use).

>>697021
The only difference is the support for the common identity. In Turkey, secularism was used to erase the internationalist model Islam - use of religion would be a shot in the foot. In India, where there are hundreds of different ethnic groups in the same space, religion is the only common link - but not universal in its limits.

As the one being right and the other on the left, these labels are difficult to apply in this case. Both support a massive role of the state in economic management. Both support a present state - not socialist, but a conduit of social change, and a mean of maintaining national identity.

The BJP's economic practices leave much to be desired, and represent a meager and insignificant improvement over the INC's. In the rule of law, everything that we saw were continuing efforts to modify the civil code and adapt it to understand that his concept of Hindu identity, effectively eliminating the legal protection of other groups.

That is, yes, although preach to organic and social base, once in power, make the state its main instrument.

As the comparison on the Gulen Movement, this seems quite inadequate. Both in relation to practices, as posture. Unlike Indian nationalism, is not hostile to the different or "anti-colonial". Attempts to integrate, rather than to antagonize. And it has mainly organics bases.

And that's only the states that actually called themselves empires. If you want to bend the rules a bit you could include even more. (Hawaii, the Philippines, Thailand, Sibir, Crimea, countless other tribal groups and kingdoms in the Americas, Africa, and Asia)

>yfw 99% of America's wars were against tribes of a few thousand people

>>696866
The other two have good reasons to think that way

>>697262
>yfw they still struggled to win them despite completely outmatching them in materiel and manpower

>>697276
>what are logistics
and we didn't have machine guns the whole time

>>697295
But it should be noted that you haven't won a single war on your own since having machine guns, excluding the one blip of Desert Storm.

>>697308
yes im aware of the irony of American foreign policy

>>696579
there is no such thing as "leftism" you cuck.

>>696857
hate to break it to you m8, but the Brits and French both had spheres of influence in Thailand adjacent to Burma and Indochina respectively.

>>697372
It's that thing about indie videogames and twitter and anti-trump supporters that I am not supposed to like.

>>697312

Irony is a cornerstone of American foreign policy.

>calling out what a muslim did is hate
Fucking muslim cucks

>>696790

Holy fuck, the Eternal Anglo meme really is true

>>697405
I lived in one of those "spheres of influence". It just means they traded alot and shit lol. I could literally find no trace or French or British Imperialism haha

>>695178
Funny that there's so many of those.

>>697556
ikr, it's so ebin :^)

It works both ways 2bh.

Mein gott. You ignorant Sanghi's really crack me up. xD

>>697767
Intellectuals widely supported Mao Zedong.

Really, having "smart people" supporting your political positions doesn't mean anything.

The Bahmanids were much cooler than Vijayanagara imho
I have to mention here that I dislike how every Shia dynasty aside from the well know ones have their religion on the wiki as "Islam" while the sunni ones say "Sunni Islam"

>can't tackle argument
> falls back on meaningless name calling

God you Hindus really are pathetic. You deserve to get even more cucked.

>>697723
Saying it for any belief is retarded.

States usually operate above the guise of any belief system.

>>697797
you took an extremely simplistic view of history and wrote down bullshit that would make the SP proud.
you don't have an argument to tackle with.

Bidar was cool as fuck, according to foreigners.

the deccan as a whole had pretty cool architecture and culture. A mishmash of middle eastern and indian styled forts, and a place that was very hostile to cavalry.

>>697975


... good question.

/his/?

>>697850
They rejected communism. They are right now trying to heal from the scars of communism and trying to restore their culture. I applaud them for their effort, but its a hard road ahead. Scars of communism run deep

>>697850
Vietcongs crushed their weak ways.

Also, there is no such thing as a "communist culture" fampai.

>>695142
to be fair, no one really cares about those Hindu temples. The big money-maker for India- the Taj Mahal, was built by Muslims
