Caution! Due to inherent human biases, it may seem that reports on articles aligning with our views are crafted by opponents. Conversely, reports about articles that contradict our beliefs might seem to be authored by allies. However, such perceptions are likely to be incorrect. These impressions can be caused by the fact that in both scenarios, articles are subjected to critical evaluation.

Detected Manipulations & Suggested Changes

Biased language

The article uses biased language to describe Vivek Ramaswamy's campaign and his attempt to appeal to white Christian fundamentalists.

Cherry-picking data

Omission of key information

The article omits key information about the beliefs and practices of Hinduism, focusing only on Vivek Ramaswamy's statements.

Non-binary identities are actually part of the tradition and we have deities that are half-man, half-woman so there’s a huge gamut of mythology and scripture that ground this kind of identity in the divine world in Hinduism.

Include information about the diversity of beliefs and practices within Hinduism.

Unbalanced reporting

The article provides unbalanced reporting by favoring the opinion of Dheepa Sundaram over Vivek Ramaswamy.

Sundaram commented: “Vivek Ramaswamy has…. tried to position himself as even more Trump than Trump. That is his attempt to ameliorate some of the resistance to him as a non-Christian and as a brown person running for the nomination of the Republican party.”

Include statements from Vivek Ramaswamy to provide a more balanced perspective.
