Good to be able to hash out leftist strains to counter reactionary hindu nationalists, etc.
EDIT: Also requesting c/jainism and c/sikhism (in addition to c/buddhism and c/hinduism requested in original OP).
EDIT 2: WTF these replies and the number of upvotes (except for some that seemed to be legit good faith)... No wonder POC don't feel welcome on this site. Mods? @Beatnik @ScreamoBMO @EcoSoco @Uncle_Hoe @Gorn
EDIT 3: To those asking "How would these comms be relevant?", asking this is kinda whack in the first place, because why would asking for a religious comm need justification to exist when there are other religious comms already existing? But just for those who do want "justification", here's a leftist podcast talking about Buddhism: https://revolutionaryleftradio.libsyn.com/buddhism. As for Hinduism, it's pretty obvious with Modi and his nationalist goons that it's a relevant topic. Similarly, it is Sikhs who are risking their lives in the insurrection against the Indian government right now. Oh and one of the most important struggles against colonialism was heavily influenced by the non-violent philosophy of Jainism (i.e. Indian independence from the British). Like I said before, why I even have to justify this in the first place is mega whack, but there you go.
The only ones that I feel somewhat qualified to mod would be hinduism and buddhism. But even then, with Buddhism most of my knowledge is from the Theravada tradition of Burma. As for Hinduism, there are so many varying sects and my knowledge is more of breadth rather than depth.
I'm going to be honest, I had the same feeling of underqualifiedness.
I'm not a biblical scholar or theologian, but tbh....things are mostly quiet and manageable.
Of course that is due to the relative inactivity, which is it's own issue, but theoretically as the comm grows there would be more people to moderate and more people from separate buddhist traditions.
