    Rape is used as an instrument of violence during riots and conflict situations across the world. True But India isn’t in a war per se with a neighboring country and these riots had a flimsy and stupid excuse with barely no evidence to the allegations, let’s just say India has a male rape culture problem, as things are these guys will just rape the first person of lower caste from themselves everytime they drop something like an ice cream cone accidentally

      The founder of Hindu supremacism encouraged use of rape as an instrument of violence & a political tool. His followers follow his teachings.

      The use of gangrape to inflict caste/ ethnic/ religious violence has increased manifold since 2010ish. It is easy for perps to evade and/or to frame people when the police FIR say “unknown miscreants”. Both society and lww & order have completely broken down.
