Shindus and Shinduism

 

SHINDU (noun): caste conscious Hindu Brahmin in the garb of a Shi'ite Muslim. The Shindu represents one of the most culturally toxic, classist, racist and socially corrupt elements in the world of Twelver Shi'ism today. A significant percentage of contemporary Shindus hail from the assorted Khoja families of Gujarat, Maharashtra, Rajasthan and the city of Hyderabad who switched from being Nizari Isma'ili Shi'i to Twelver (ithna 'ashari) Shi'i during the 19th century. Today many Shindus can be found all over the world among the Twelver Shi'i diaspora. They usually only marry among themselves and shun and discriminate against all non-Shindu Muslims. Because they enjoy the privilege of wealth and status, esp. the Khojas among them, Shindus have sometimes been labeled with the stereotype of being 'the Jews of the Muslim community'. Most of the private funding for assorted Shi'i shrine complexes in Iraq and Iran (as well as elsewhere) comes from the coffers of Shindus.

 

In India, and against the general trend of other Muslim communities, Shindus support the BJP and the fascist government of Narendra Modhi against the best interests of both the majority of Indians as well as Indian Muslims alike. From 2016 to 2021 many Shindus as far afield as Lahore, Pakistan to Manchester, UK supported far-right candidates in Western elections. Online many Shindus during that time were also openly supporting the activities of the far-right networks of Aleksandr Dugin and many of them could be seen rubbing shoulders on the social media pages of assorted white and Aryan supremacist figures. Shindus are also well known for being informants and collaborators with Western intelligence and law enforcement agencies against other Shi'i and Muslim communities and individuals.

 

Shinduism can be classified as both a social and mental disease suffered by a specific sub-culture from the sub-continent. Currently no cure for this social and mental malady has been found. Besides the Islamic Republic of Iran and its abject failures, most problems in Shi'ite Muslim communities today can in one way or another be traced back to Shinduism and its sub-culture.

One of the many casualties of Shinduism was the late scholar Seth Carney who fell in love with a Shindu girl but was denied her hand, soon after which he committed suicide.
