First Point R*pe and Slaves in Hinduism

Rigveda 4.17.16

Nothing as such is written there.
He is showing Translation by Wilson. This mantra says people desire cows, horses, women.

Next Rigveda
8.19.36
The words used are

पञ्चाशतं त्रसदस्युर्वधुनाम्

It वधु can have many meanings according to context

It means to carry or to help with means of. It do not mean 50 wives here as translations Suggest.
50 wives do not even fit in the context.

पौरुकुत्स्य = son of पुरुकुत्स( कुक्ष हिंसायाम्)
Destroyer of Bad thoughts.

Next Rigveda 6,27,8

Again translation without understanding the context
Devta of mantra is
अभ्यावर्तिश्चायमानास्य
Meaning this mantra ih s about those who do their Kartavya and worship Ishwar.

विंशतिम् refers to 10 Indriyas and 10 pranas

Next he takes up Mahabharata and claims women can be won in dice game
If he would have read Mahabharata he would have know how much that was criticized and a war happened because of that.

Just like Mahabharata he takes verses out of Context from other texts such as upnishads and Puranas let's see a few more

From Mahabharata he takes up Subhadra haran next, I have already covered this in much detail in previous threads.

सुचिस्मिताम् she is described as having a beautiful smile while going with Arjuna this is not Abduction against her will

Then he takes up Rukmini Haran, I had written a thread on this too.
See SS of Vishnu Purana-

They Both loved Each other he did not take her against her will but against will of her Brother

Next for his allegations on marriage of u Underage girls -

ब्रह्मचर्येण कन्या युवानं विन्दते पतिम्- अथर्ववेद

Atharva veda says A girl too should follow beahmacharya ashram and enter Grihasta finding a Husband in youth

Even Manusmriti 9.90 says a girl should marry at the age of around 16

Also texts of Ayurveda says the same thing. That Girl should marry after age of 16 and Boys after 25

All his claims are as such, I am sure he never even saw any of our texts and clearly never read them
