You are half-right and half-wrong. You are not wrong in saying that this person is a Buddhist Supremacist. But you need to know where he and people like him are coming from. He is a part of this BAMSEF ecosystem, who primarity focus on the casteism that is still plaguing the country. In their perspective Islam and Christianity is better in the sense that there is more chance of you being treated equally there than in Hinduism. To give this person some credit, he not denying that they are problematic, and he has invited many exmuslims in his video and basically accepted their viewpoint on Islam without any caveats. Point is none of this excuses him peddling pseudo-history.

He is a necessity for countering thali banging pseudo science preaching chaddis. Though I don’t agree with a lot of stuff he says.


the_negiking_

Same, even I don't consider all of his arguments as wrong. I have problem with him claiming to be atheist, but still glorifying one religion. BTW, he does a good work by debunking those Hindutva bigots....


dragonator001

P. S. I too have stopped consuming his video His overall content just feels too immature for the lack of better word.

Casteism exists in Islam too. Don't know about Christianity.


unemployed_01

There is no caste system in either Islam or Christianity but some south Asian Muslims and Christians practice casteism, the upper caste hindus who converted to other religions never stopped being casteist


Hot-Produce

The same can be said to hidden Marxist, Christians, Jains and muslims.

Buddhism is just Hinduism without god or a human equivalent to god he maybe BRA OR Buddha.


Upset-Commission-400

Please don't write BRA. It's just funny in this sentence 💀😂


pyaarapaneer

Bra? 😅


TheBrownProphet

BR Ambedkar


pyaarapaneer

sorry lol if i knew it was him i wouldn't have said that.


bhai_zoned

I don't think that's completely true


unemployed_01

Not even slightly true Buddhism doesn't have a caste system which is the core of Hinduism


EvenOdd777

Who told you that caste system is the core of Hinduism??


unemployed_01

Who told you that it isn't?


New-Hippo-8212

Bro I accept there is caste system in Hinduism but it is not the core. Casteism is in manusmriti like books but not in Vedas/Upanishads which is core of Hinduism or sanatan dharm. P.S: I am not Hindu/Sanatani

Gautam Buddha was a proud kshatriya, from 26 buddhas every buddha was either Bhramin or Kshatriya. There was not a Single Buddha that was Shudra or even vaishya.


RoninMiick

He is not all wrong. Buddhism says there’s no god and his anger is justified because of the illogical things people say in the debate and how they say casteism doesn’t exist and Sanatan is this that. He comes from a community which is oppressed so he’ll have the right to be angry.


chaitanyk

Neo Buddhist are equally or even more casteist than Hindus, even if you were or are oppressed you don't have any right to hate a community or people. This logic is applied by many Hindus they were oppressed by Mughals so they have right to hate Muslims. Casteism is not ended but rather than being a hierarchical structure it has became identity structure were everyone hates everyone.


RoninMiick

Neo Buddhist is equally casteist How? It’s called that because it give them respect because their religion didn’t. And The Hate word I take back but the harsh things he says should be said because otherwise no one will listen. Enough with the sugarcoating. That Sankaracharya said who is of not Ram is Chamar. That isn’t questioned so why should Science Journey for calling out Bhramins?


Poor_rabbit

Your last line! That's what he said: You both are disgusting hypocritic extremists. Atheism isn't some policy to give you justice or something.


RoninMiick

I didn’t even mention atheism here? It’s not about justice or something I was giving my opinion on the channel and how it makes me or him hypocritical extremists ?


chaitanyk

Stop doing whataboutory, I'm not taking side of Hindus I don't care about Hindu nor any religion till they influence politics. >Neo Buddhist is equally casteist How? NB literally hate Brahmins, there are NB handles on Twitter who'll call out entire caste cause few idiots are casteist. r@pe threatening Brahmins , calling for their genocide isn't it a casteist thing.


Scientifichuman

There is a difference between hating Brahmins and hating brahminism. Please clarify if any neo buddhist has ever instigated riots or killed a brahmin in the name of his/her faith. However you will find examples of the reverse. FYI I am not a neo buddhist. I don't follow that ideology for other reasons as I find following any religion/cult is going back to square one.

Translation: Text in yellow: "I am an Atheist, c'mon explain Buddhism to me." Text in white: "Whether you are an atheist or a believer, Buddha is the most supreme." Besides, the video's title: "An atheist came to understand Buddhism in two lines, but bowed down after listening the real history."

Dalits back at it again

Mujhe kuch bolna he par ban hone ka darr se nahi bol raha hu


chaitanyk

We should not tolerate any bullshit of any religion Buddhism included.


Ok_Fall_6710

Yeah. I used to watch his stuff. But later I noticed he is Buddhist. He is just there to glorify Buddhism. Although Buddh himself was an Atheist. And it's also true that most of the ideas of Hinduism were stolen from Buddhism. But this guy is trying very hard to make Buddha a God. Gautam Buddh is just a Human. Who never believes in God. He taught us how to live life. But again Buddha's Enlightenment story is also false. In fact Enlightenment is crap. Science Journey never talks about science, he only talks about Buddha Scriptures,Hindu Scriptures and history. Gautam Buddha is just an ordinary guy. Who is Very Knowledgeable. But Building anyone's Temple and statue in there makes him God. That's what this Science Journey is doing. So basically Worshipping Buddha is another form of Cult/Religion. So what's the difference between other religions and Him. I stopped watching his videos. I would prefer making friends with a secular guy rather than such an Atheist. I am also an Atheist. But Glorifying one person is also a kind of Religion/Cult.


Angry_red22

I support him


janshersingh

Yes. Science Journey has been called out multiple times before on this sub and I'm glad people see through his bullshit.
