Not the first time this Subreddit has removed news articles that show Sikhs as victims of targeted violence

This sub removed my post and stated it was because I didn't have a source and edited the contents

When I provided a source with link, and copied and pasted the article because it's behind paywall

And this sub is supposed to be hailed liberal

After the Nihangs successfully concluded the Uttarakhand Morcha, before many of our Singhs had even made it back home, Vicky Thomas was once again busy attacking and defaming the very Sikh way of life he claims to champion.

At this point, it seems he's more interested in creating outrage and generating engagement than helping resolve issues affecting the Panth. In fact, he's arguably created more controversies within the Panth than he's helped solve.

The recent video is a perfect example. Instead of allowing the matter to be properly investigated and verified, he helped turn it into a viral spectacle. Any serious issue deserves due diligence first, facts second, and resolution third—not social media sensationalism.

Not every issue needs to be broadcast to the world for clicks and attention. Many matters should be handled responsibly within the Panth through proper channels and institutions.

The bigger question is: why are we allowing outsiders to dictate who is and isn't a Sikh? Why do we keep giving people with no authority over Sikh affairs a platform to define our identity, our traditions, and our institutions?

If we don't set those boundaries ourselves, others will continue trying to do it for us.
