‘Stop the invasion and deport them’: Internet reacts after Texas activists target Hanuman temple, say ‘Third world aliens are slowly taking over America’

A conservative activist in Texas sparked controversy after sharing a video of a 90-foot-tall “federal statue” of Lord Hanuman at the Shri Ashtalakshmi Temple in Sugar Land, Texas. Carlos Tuccios, a Republican activist in the Dallas-Fort Worth area, shared the video and said Third World aliens are slowly taking over Texas and the United States. “Stop the invasion,” he said in a post on X.His comments were supported by some anti-immigration users, while others criticized the post as racist and misleading.One supporter said: “Stop the invasion and kick them all out.” Another said: “Disgusting. Get rid of it as soon as possible. What’s wrong with Texas? It must be money. “Critics claim, “Didn’t Charlie Kirk say that secularism is a Western and Christian value? Furthermore, India has more churches and statues of Jesus than there are Hindu temples and statues in the United States.”Inaugurated in August 2024, this statue of Panchaloha Abhaya Hanuman is the tallest statue in North America and represents the “spiritual center” of strength, devotion and peace.Also earlier, Tursios criticized the notion that “third world foreigners” are entering the U.S. on H-1B visas and said Frisco had been “invaded.”
