Buddhist nationalists do genocide all the same, like in en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rohingya_genocide

It’s almost as if it’s the nationalism part that makes them do that rather than having anything to do with their religion.
Same with christianity, the core religion is somewhat fine, it’s the church and the people that used it as a tool that arent.

Yeah I don’t disagree. However, in practice the tool is what it’s used for, e.g. guns. I’m pro-gun, but it’s foolish to not understand where the gun control people are coming from. Religion is the same.

Buddhists are also capable of committing violence in the name of their religion. Look at Myanmar
