Forward Press Demonizes Hindu traditions as "Brahminical" and Oppressive.

The article claims that Onam has been appropriated by Hindus and that the real story represents the crushing of a Buddhist king by the "the covetous Brahman dwarf Vamana", suggesting that Hinduism has a history of intolerance against Buddhist beliefs while stealing all the positive ideals propagated by Buddhist philosophy. The article also claims that Buddhism "was finally erased from the social sphere through hegemonic appropriations and violent conversions by Saiva and Vaishnava Bhakti frenzies of the brahmanical Hindu religion". The writer also demonizes Hindus as genocidal and violent.
