My Ideology: A Personal Reflection

Religious Views:

While my upbringing was rooted in Hindu traditions, I now identify as an atheist. I believe in living a secular life where religion does not influence personal or societal decisions. Respect for all faiths is essential, but so is the freedom to choose none.

Political Views:

I reject all forms of extremism, whether right-wing or left-wing. I don’t support any political party blindly but vote for those that promote love and unity (mohabbat ki dukaan). In a climate of rising hatred, I believe that spreading love and peace is the most effective way to counter division and intolerance.

On Casteism:

Although I come from a so-called upper caste, I firmly oppose casteism in all its forms. I support caste-based reservations as a tool for leveling the playing field and have deep empathy for minorities and oppressed communities. Equality should not be dictated by birth but by opportunity.

On Reservation:

I support caste-based reservation as a necessary measure to level the playing field and ensure equal opportunities for marginalized groups. It is vital for achieving social justice and equity in our society.

On Brahminism and Manuism:

I stand against both Brahminism and the caste-based ideologies derived from Manuism. The idea of inherent superiority based on birth is something I reject outright.

On Hindutva-based Extremism:

I strongly oppose any form of religious extremism, especially Hindutva-based extremism. Religion should never be wielded as a tool to incite hatred or create divisions in society.

On Feminism:

While I don’t align with extreme feminist ideologies and sometimes advocate for men’s rights, I fully support women’s empowerment. However, I am critical of the misuse of laws designed to protect women when they are exploited by those already in positions of power. Gender equality must be about balance and fairness for all.

On LGBTQ+ Rights:

Though I am a straight male, I strongly believe in equality for the LGBTQ+ community. Everyone deserves the same rights and opportunities, regardless of gender or sexual orientation. Supporting their struggle for equal rights is essential to building a fair society.

On Capitalism:

I recognize that capitalism drives innovation and progress, but I also believe it must be balanced with social policies that ensure equal opportunities for all, especially for marginalized communities. Economic growth should benefit everyone, not just a select few.

On Nationalism:

I am not a blind nationalist. While I respect my country, I place humanity above nationalism. Borders should never limit our empathy or our sense of justice. I stand for global cooperation and the betterment of all people, regardless of nationality.

Environmental Views:

I believe the earth belongs to all creatures, not just humans. Being fair to all species and preserving the environment is essential for our collective survival. Humanity must live in harmony with nature, recognizing that the health of the planet is intertwined with the well-being of all living beings.

Technology and Evolution:

Although I am a tech enthusiast, I believe more in evolution than in invention. Nature’s way of adapting and evolving is far more powerful and sustainable than any human-made innovation. Technology should work in harmony with nature, supporting long-term growth and resilience.
