The views and opinions expressed here are the commentators' own and do not reflect the official position of Atheist Republic.
A recent study published by the Network Contagion Research Institute (NCRI) showed that anti-Hindu content is becoming increasingly visible across social media platforms, such as Reddit, Twitter, Telegram, and Gab. The study demonstrated that anti-Hindu slurs and contents spiked after Parag Agrawal, an Indian-American software engineer, was appointed as CEO of Twitter in November 2021. The study finds that most anti-Hindu content is generated by troll farms based in Iran masquerading as human rights activists, journalists, and humanists. It is evident that the misinformation spread by these accounts exacerbates the religious tensions between India and Pakistan. The study also highlighted that these trolls posed as individuals from Pakistan, blaming "Hindu Extremists" for a bombing carried out by ISIS in 2017 on a Bhopal–Ujjain Passenger train. John Farmer, one of the study's authors, stated, "Violence commonly follows hateful memes, hashtags, and such." Therefore, the real danger in these hateful online contents is their tendency to translate to real-life violence.
