>The Marathas were primarily motivated by power, politics, and regional identity rather than a pan-Hindu consciousness. The idea of a unified “Hindu” identity, as we understand it today, was not a dominant force in 17th-18th century India. Instead, their struggles were against the Mughal Empire, local rivals, and shifting alliances that were often pragmatic rather than ideological.
>Shivaji and subsequent Marathas allied with Muslim rulers when it suited them. Shivaji himself had Muslim commanders in his army, and later Marathas formed alliances with the Nizam of Hyderabad and even the Mughal Empire when strategically necessary.
>Temple destruction by Marathas—Yes, the Marathas did attack and loot temples, especially in enemy territories. The most notable example is the sacking of the Sringeri Sharada Peetham temple in 1791 by a rogue faction of Maratha forces under Raghunath Rao Patwardhan. This was part of broader political and economic warfare rather than religious fanaticism.

Not true.
Thing is Islam is religion as well as politics.
Islamic invasion has both policial and religious interests.
Again the Vedic Dharma dictates politics too, Rajputs followed kshatriya dharma.
Before Industrial revolution, Religion played an eminent role in all aspects of society unlike today.
