Cringeworthy strawman. But also demonstrates the kind of rationalization and whitewashing that's prevalent in the minds of millions of regular Indians, not just those working in FB.

Honest question and I’m not Indian. If millions of regular Indians don’t want Muslims, what gives?

Ha, good question. "Indians", as it's used in such contexts, is really a euphemism to refer only to India's Hindus. A word trick when describing an undesirable behaviour prevalent mainly in one community but without fixing responsibility for that behaviour on that community. It's so common that even a disapproving critic like me ends up using such code words unthinkingly.

We've banned this account for nationalistic and religious flamewar. You can't do this on HN, and you've been doing it repeatedly. Not cool.
