Why Does Caste Endure Among South Asian Muslims? How a faith of equality lives alongside inherited hierarchy, where piety, labour, and lineage quietly shape dignity in South Asian Muslim life

In South Asia, faith and hierarchy coexist quietly: dignity, labour, and lineage shape social life beyond scripture.

Agree. Humankind has two worldviews / two sets of moral values. One wants to maximize equality. The one destroying our govt wants to maximize inequality to make sure their #OnePercenters stay on top of their imaginary #SocialHierarchy

@theframelab.bsky.social
@georgelakoff.sfba.social.ap.brid.gy

Our authoritarian capitalism is key to enabling this #SocialHierarchy where a few decide how profit is distributed to maximize inequality. We need a more democratic economic system where workers decide how the profits from their productivity is distributed.

These right-wing authoritarians believe is an imaginary, self-serving, #SocialHierarchy.

They are maximizing inequality with excessive rewards for the 1% - top of the hierarchy - and using extreme punishment for the 99%. They are creating the hierarchy they image to exist to stay on top.

#Felon47's hate is founded in a belief of right-wing authoritarians: #MaxmimizingInequality

They believe in a self-fulfilling, imaginary, #SocialHierarchy that is maintained by excessive rewards for those at the top (authoritarian Billionaires) and severe punishment, #SocialMurder, for all others.

Correction:

It’s called maintaining their #SocialHierarchy by rewarding their friends and punishing all those unlike them.

It’s called maintaining their #SocialHierarchy by rewarding their friends and punishing all law breakers like them.

Authoritarians are bent on maximizing inequality and ending democracy. They protect, empower and enrich those like themselves while impoverishing everyone else.

Their belief in #SocialHierarchy and elimination of innate empathy for anyone leads to massive #SocialMurder.

When they believe in a #SocialHierarchy, maximizing inequality results in:

- enriching the 1% and
- impoverishing the 99%.

This is what authoritarians do: enrich the 1% at the top of their #SocialHierarchy and enslave the 99%.

Their lies result in firing mostly minority govt workers.

Their lies aim to enforce an imaginary #SocialHierarchy with them on top and well rewarded.

Their lies advance #WhiteSupremacy.

Their lies turned #SCOTUS into a #Christianist court.

Reading Dean’s #AuthoritarianNightmare, shows these groups share the following beliefs:

- There is an imaginary #SocialHierarchy with them on top. They are our rightful rulers.
- They will force this hierarchy into reality with excessive rewards 4 themselves & severe punishment for all others.

But when you believe in inequality, #WhiteSupremacy, and maintaining a #SocialHierarchy with yourself on top, it’s just their SOP.
