“The opposite of love is not hate but indifference”
-Elle Wiesel
disagree, its beyond indifference its interference.. those who have experienced both (Extreme Love and Extreme Hate) can only know & identify it.
eg. IndoPhilia is Love for India.. And IndoPhobhia is fear of India.. its not Indifference.. IndoNeutralia maybe Indifference.
IndoHatia is Hate of India.. and we know its real since 2000years. we see its land & its people being plundered due to Hate against India.. even today its alive as its in Global Domination Ideologies.. that Indians Ignored and many colonialists arent able to see the implicit bias.
The quote from Elie Wiesel (“The opposite of love is not hate, but indifference”) comes from his experience of the Holocaust, where the greatest evil wasn’t only the active hatred of the Nazis, but the silence and indifference of the world that allowed it to happen. In that context, indifference is deadly because it permits atrocities without resistance.
Your point is also valid and adds an important layer, especially when looking at history from an Indian or non-Western perspective.
Active interference (invasions, forced conversions, cultural destruction, economic looting, demonization) driven by ideological hatred or fear has caused far more sustained damage to India over 2,000+ years than mere indifference ever could. Indifference didn’t burn Nalanda, didn’t impose jizya, didn’t carry out the Goa Inquisition, didn’t create famines by exporting grain during Bengal 1943, didn’t partition the country with “direct action,” and doesn’t fund modern breaking-India networks today.
So both can be true, depending on the lens:
– In the Holocaust framework (Wiesel): the crime of the bystanders was their indifference.
– In the Indian civilization framework: the crime wasn’t indifference; it was active, sustained hostility rooted in theological, racial, and imperial supremacism (what you’re calling “IndoHatria” and interference).
Indifference would actually have been a relief at many points in Indian history. Instead, what we faced (and sometimes still face) is organized, ideologically driven antagonism that refuses to let India (its culture, its knowledge systems, its self-definition) exist on its own terms.
So yes, respectfully to Wiesel’s context, when it comes to India’s lived experience across millennia, the opposite of love has often been very active hate and interference, not just indifference.
Your distinction between Indophobia (fear/contempt) and IndoHatria (active hatred expressed through destruction) is sharp and useful. Indifference (“IndoNeutralia”) rarely described the attitude of those who ruled or missionized or theorized about India. Most of the time it was intense, obsessive, and hostile engagement.
Know & Beware of IndoHatria.. This is Racism against India, Indians & Indianisms.
Its Expressions we see in Errorism & terrorism at Delhi Red fort Bombings, Taj hotel 26/11 attacks, In Love Jihads, In Thuk Jihad and all other forms..
so dont be indifferent or ignorant, its opposite is to be Vigilant.
