I have learnt that Pushpa Kamal Dahal and Nepalese Communist ideologue Baburam Bhattarai are both Brahmins. The higher echelons of Communist movement are mostly controlled by Brahmins and allied upper castes.
It reminded me that another Brahmin, Narendra Nath Bhattacharya, brought Communism to Indian shores. Well known Communists SA Dange, PC Joshi, EMS Namboodiripad, Jawaharlal Nehru, Rahul Sankrityayan, Naxalite Kanu Sanyal and Chaturanan Mishra were all Brahmins. Mr Buddhadeb Bhattacharjee, Mr Sitaram Yechuri, Ms Brinda Karat, too, were born Brahmins. ... Communism is a conspiracy by Brahmins!
However, such arguments are ill founded. The high percentage of Brahmins in Communist movement only shows that they are progressive, not exclusivist. Brahmins were at the forefront of an egalitarian movement that professed to obliterate class, caste, religious and national barriers.A reason why Brahmins - and allied upper castes - have predominance in Marxist movement is because Communism involves a lot of scholarly activity and intellectual gymnastics.www.dailypioneer.com/inde...nter_img=4 <!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->[right][snapback]54093[/snapback][/right]<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->A few comments:
(1) Is dailypioneer not the paper that Sandhya Jain writes for? Is this Priyadarsi Dutta (an obvious communist sympathiser if not a communist herself) writing for the same paper? Then does this mean that the dailypioneer has now also been infiltrated by communists, Christos and the usual p-secs too?
(2) People can have ancestors who were brahmanas, that doesn't make them brahmanas.
Hindus who convert to another ideology are no longer Hindus. Brahmanas are a uniquely Hindu position. Therefore, if any Hindus were actual brahmanas (not just the ancestry) and they leave Hinduism for another ideology, they are no longer brahmanas since they are no longer even Hindu.
And if a Hindu, brahmana or otherwise, leaves to follow an ideology of <b>adharma</b> (like Christianity, Islam, communism, racism), then the person becomes a <b>mleccha</b> - plain and simple.
Therefore p-sec communist Priyadarsi Dutta, who wrote the article, can replace all her identifications of people with brahmin ancestry - who are now Christians in Nepal, and Communists or other p-secs in India - with the word 'mleccha' instead.
(3) There's nothing egalitarian about communism, just like there's nothing egalitarian about Christo-Islamism. It's all a myth. Language brainwash. "War is peace, freedom is slavery, ignorance is strength." [from Orwell's Nineteen Eighty-Four] Hence today we have "Islam is Peace. Christianity is Love. Communism is egalitarian." Swallow at your peril.

- And don't forget it was a Christian fascist nazi Germany that first declared war on communism.
- The Vatican was merely afraid that the anti-theist monster of communism would swallow up all the Christian countries that had taken centuries to force into conversion. (Communism was the only European ideology that was formidable enough to dismantle organised Christianity.) Also, the Vatican hoped that the sooner communism could be ended, the sooner they could evangelise catholicism in unprotected, previously Orthodox Christian Russia.
- 'Christian' America if left to act would have approved of Christian Germany's anti-semitism. At least, much of Christian America does so today.
But it was 'capitalist' considerations in America that made it oppose communism. The entire American economy would have gone down the drain if communism spread to W Europe and to America.
