    Religions as Hinduism is apartheid affirmative , it can go any length to justify the caste system and then say brahmins are good and etc. The hindu religion or Hindu gods worshiping is only allowed to an insignificant 15 percent of the Indian population , rest the dalits , the untouchables and the tribal people (indigenous prior to Aryans ) are excluded from the Hindu social life. If you take Buddhism then it has discarded Vedas and Hindu religion totally but it got gradually expunged from the society and India due to numerous reasons and due to being a realist idea which was too unorthodox for India itself.

      One can take the concept of reincarnation and the knowledge that many planets exist in this universe, some others may have intelligent life. Some of those planets may be more pleasant to live on than others. Others might be a rough time living on. The caste system exists because some people want people to aspire to reincarnate to a good life by following one's dharma and refreign from living a bad life the next time around with bad deeds. Instead of a caste system that creates social inequality, we can assume that all intelligent life has souls that can travel across the universe and reincarnate into better or worse places. The places are better or worse not because of human design, but the cosmos itself.

      From this kind of understanding there is no need to enforce a caste system because for all souls it already exists. We can choose to make living on our planet better for all souls on this planet. But yea, maybe that is too radical to be understood as Hinduism if you knock down enforcing a caste system.

        you are a Hindu not a communist . A Hindu who worships vedas and gita/ Brahminical gods cannot be a communist . As Ambedkar has said , to defeat caste you have to completely demolish Vedas . You are blabbering gibberish about planets to justify the wretched caste system nothing else. A man cannot be a commie if he believes a certain people is inborn wretched .

          I'm not a Hindu sorry. I only took what I understood to be concepts of what I understand about Hinduism and intentionally created an abstraction of the caste system so that the caste system does not need to be implemented on earth. I'm sorry if I wasn't clear.

          As a communist I make no such claim that people are inborn wreched. I don't know where you got that from my comment. People become whatever their surroundings allow them to become. We should create a system that allows people to become the best versions of themselves. There still might be a variation among the people in the society regardless. I don't think we can know the variation of ability based on family charts alone.

            I am from a Brahmin caste and I am telling you hindu texts support and practice casteism. Read Gita, women, shudras and vaisyas are born of sinful vagina. You westerners only see the distorted messages and translation by hindu ISKON and other sects. Krishna says, " I have created the 4 castes " Arjuna says in Gita, the intexmixing of castes creates sin and thus downfall. In Chandogya upanishad it is said , those who do bad things and karma they are born in chandala caste (those who burn corpse) . If you cannot believe all humans are born free and equal you have no right to support communism.
