Also once again, Hinduism gets made fun of more in India because it's followed by 80% of Indians. Making fun of other religions in India would be as silly as Hollywood making fun of Hinduism. Because it would have little relevance to the audience.
The examples from abroad were EXAMPLES of my point. How is that difficult to see?
Thirdly, answer is not to ban mockery of Hinduism. It's to say mock away at all religions because that's your right. Because faith has to be voluntary.
But still banning does occur in India and much more frequently for insults of Christianity Islam or other religions compared to Hinduism and still it's Hindus who are labelled more intolerant.
If u want to prove a point in indian context then give examples pertaining to indian context. aise to, islam is the dominant religion of pakistan still how many movies or serials can u tell me where islam has been insulted in Pakistan? Also Hindus in Pakistan are between 1-2 % only yet hindu, Hinduism and hindu practices have been insulted countless times in Pakistan. So this argument of Hindu are majority so they are taregted more is bs. Even in Christian or musium or sikh majority states of india, insults of Christianity or Islam or Sikhism would not go easily compared to Hinduism which has always been taken very lightly cos Hindus have traditionally been very tolerant. It's now only that when they are seeing that they are being made the easy targets while others are getting a free pass and now they are protesting against this bias and fighting for equal treatment.
