I know you’re trolling and indeed fuck the rest, but…buddhist monks? Pretty hard to have beef with. No pun intended.
I guess you could make the case that encouraging indifference towards suffering breeds a whole different class of sociopathy, but even then, at least they’re the least destructive they can possibly be by just never touching anything.
Well. “Extremist” and “nationalist” were never words I thought I would see attached to the phrase buddhist monk, but here we are, I fucking guess. That’s a thing that I know now.
I’m about to just eschew anything bipedal at this point. Two legs bad.
And on a related note, zen buddhists have a pretty vile subsect that is entwined with Japanese militarism and has been for centuries. However there are a lot of buddhists who are really good people, and lots of buddhist sects likewise. As with almost all religions, it depends on the particular flavor of ideology they have adopted.

Depends on the monk. The shitty Buddhists in Myanmar support genocide.
