In India all communities has gone through atrocities Sikh, Muslims and KP.
Earlier, the atrocities were committed by rulers or people with power. Now, it’s people killing each other.
In Guru Nanak Sahib’s poetries which have also documented the atrocities and pain when Babur attacked, the depiction doesn’t show killing a Hindu or Muslim but both regardless of religion.
While, in today’s world atrocities against specific religious communities do happen, I feel that people today have become more bigoted against regular people of different faiths.
Religion is an excuse, intolerance is the reason. It’s responsible for most soul breaking of the world. It makes people and children cruel to each other. Its responsible for wars, porgroms, crucifications, lynchings.
I find it strange that people don’t hate British as much. They have caused much more damage over 200 years - from stealing India’s wealth, to partitioning India, the wars that we have had to fight, to using Indians as canon fodder during world war, massacres, to the devastating consequences of the divide and rule policy.
