the only specific examples you gave was him placing jingoistic symbols as middle names for Iqbal and Muhammad bin Qasim, in order to lampoon a certain sort of thinking. Neither of these figures is religious, nor does it mean that him making fun of young, urban, middle class mentality automatically means he hates iqbal or bin qasim.
to my knowledge it is generally known that he has controversial religious views, but he prefers not to write about them usually. which is fair enough. lets restrict ourselves to what he writes rather than what we think his personal beliefs/actions are.
i dont believe you had any specific political stance you can point to as ‘extreme’. it is just a polemic strategy to say meh they’re both extremists so as to diminish the point hes making.
