🚩🚫🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩 🌙 1. **Ras Leela with married women** Bhagavata Purana 10.33.27 Krishna danced with married Gopis in the forest at night. Even though they left their husbands, the scripture says: Whatever Krishna does is pure, even if He plays with others’ wives. 🛑 Normalizes adultery under divine excuse. 🩲 2. **Stealing clothes and watching girls naked** Bhagavata Purana 10.22.1 to 10.22.28 Krishna hides the clothes of young bathing girls, climbs a tree, and watches them come out of the river **naked with hands raised**. He says it’s a test of their devotion. 😳 Highly inappropriate by any ethical standard. 💍 3. **Sex with 16,000 women** Bhagavata Purana 10.59.42 After killing Narakasura, Krishna takes 16,000 captive women as wives. He is said to live with them all by creating multiple forms of himself. ⚠️ Glorifies mass polygamy and male domination. 🧈 4. **Stealing butter and lying about it** Bhagavata Purana 10.8 to 10.11 Krishna frequently steals butter from villagers and breaks their pots. Even when caught, he lies and charms his way out. 😂 Presented as playful, but glorifies theft and dishonesty. 🔪 5. **Killing Ekalavya, a tribal archer** Mahabharata, Adi Parva and Bhagavata Purana 10.52.31 Ekalavya, a low-caste boy, learns archery on his own. Drona cuts off his thumb. Later Krishna kills him, calling him unrighteous. 🚫 Reinforces caste violence against talented lower-caste individuals. 📿 6. **Supports caste system in Gita** Bhagavad Gita 4.13 Krishna says: I created the four varnas (castes) based on qualities and actions. Although interpreted philosophically, this verse was used for centuries to enforce caste discrimination. 📛 Justifies systemic social inequality. 🗣️ 7. **Killing Shishupala for verbal insults** Mahabharata, Sabha Parva During a royal ceremony, Shishupala mocks Krishna. Krishna responds by using his chakra to **behead him publicly**. 🧠 Kills someone for speech — raises moral concerns. #rama Unethical, Weird ❌🚩🚩🚩🚩👺🚩🚩❤🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩 Acts of Rama in Ramayana These are all from mainstream Valmiki Ramayana or well-known regional versions. 1. 💔 Banishing Sita While Pregnant — Based on Gossip Rama sends Sita to the forest alone while she is pregnant, based on a washerman’s comment about her “purity.” 🕉️ Uttara Kanda, Valmiki Ramayana “A ruler must be free from blame. I banish you to uphold my people’s trust.” Comment: Seriously? Gossip over your wife? This is not ideal leadership or love — it’s cruel and cowardly. 2. ⚔️ Killing Shambuka the Shudra for Doing Tapas Rama beheads a Shudra ascetic just because he was doing penance in the forest, which “violated dharma.” 🕉️ Uttara Kanda, Ramayana “By performing penance, the Shudra threatens the cosmic order. He must die.” Comment: Casteist horror. What kind of god kills someone for meditating? 3. 🐒 Making Monkeys Fight His War Instead of asking help from humans, Rama uses an army of monkeys (Vanaras) — like Hanuman, Sugreeva, etc. 🔹 Comment: Literal monkey business. Why use animals for war instead of diplomacy? Slaying Vali Unfairly from Behind a Tree Rama hides and shoots Vali from behind while he's fighting someone else (Sugreeva). 🕉️ Kishkindha Kanda “A king can kill from hiding when dharma is at stake.” 🔹 Comment: That’s just sneaky and cowardly, not heroic. 🔥 Asking Sita to Do Agni Pariksha (Fire Test) After rescuing her from Ravana, Rama demands she walk through fire to prove her purity. 🕉️ Yuddha Kanda, Valmiki Ramayana “I rescued you for honor, not for love. Prove your chastity.” 🔹 Comment: Toxic masculinity. Instead of comforting her, he humiliates her. Never Defending Sita Against Critics He allows society to question Sita again and again, never confronting the toxic moral policing. 🔹 Comment: Doesn’t defend his wife. Silent when he should speak. 7. 🪦 Abandoning His Children in Forest His twin sons, Lava and Kusha, are born and raised without knowing who their father is. 🔹 Comment: A father who abandons family, then fights his own sons without knowing. Blind Obedience to Dharma, No Compassion Rama is shown as a king who follows “Rajdharma” even when it destroys his personal life. 🔹 Comment: Robot-like morality — no real humanity or emotion. ❓🤔 So… Why the “Jai Shri Ram” Hype? Originally a devotional phrase, “Jai Shri Ram” has now become: 🚩 1. Political Slogan (Not JustReligious) Widely used by Hindutva groups (like RSS, Bajrang Dal, etc.) Chanted during hate crimes, riots, and lynchings Used to assert Hindu supremacy, not peace or devotion Brainwashed Symbolism Kids in schools, people on streets forced to chant it Becomes reflex rather than real devotion 🔊 3. Used in Intimidation Many victims of hate attacks in India were forced to chant “Jai Shri Ram” before being beaten or killed. 🔹 Example: Tabrez (Jharkhand), 2019 🔹 Example: Delhi Riots, 2020 Fake Masculinity & Heroism Rama is projected as “Hindu warrior king” — even though real Ramayana presents him as soft, conflicted, and Fake Masculinity & Heroism Rama is projected as “Hindu warrior king” — even though real Ramayana presents him as soft, conflicted, and emotional The aggressive macho image is fake propaganda
