  • not reasons (because we all have many reasons to revolt) but a clear strategy, demands or even much information

    Such a typical Marxist Leninist bubble view if you are genuine. PLENTY of protests and revolts throughout history happened spontaneously at grassroots level. And the most common reason is being against government ineptitude and demanding to meet basic material needs of the public. The French Revolution, Singing revolution, the 1848 liberal revolution, Occupy Wall street, and even the Tea Party movement are ad hoc. If you actually read world history then you would not be such an antidemocratic simp.



  • Boomers aren’t Gen Z.

    The previous Nepali government, before being overthrown, literally stole tax payers money and flaunted their wealth and then tried to violently put down peaceful protestors, until people fought back and stormed the palace.

    You are just anti-democratic. You will just call everything a CIA sponsored coup or colour revolutions except for the illiberal ones you personally approve of.




  • And not every revolution you don’t like is CIA-coup. Oh right, nuance doesn’t exist with .ml. Of course it is in your interest and your pay masters to muddy the water. Again, even if there was external influence on colour revolutions, where is the indication that there is right wing authoritarian elements on these revolutions like before? Oh wait, for the typical tankies, the only legitimate form of revolutions is if it’s a violent one led by your OWN authoritarian and imperial ideals. As expected, you haven’t even called out the right wing movements funded by Kremlin.


  • Oh fuck off with that Kremlin propaganda of colour revolutions. Even if Gen Z protests has external influence, what is so bad about promoting democracy and end of government corruption? As bad as Western interference has been in the past, the colour revolutions tend to be influenced by soft power and no right wing elements. Would you call the French Revolution a colour revolution because it was influenced by the American revolution? Or the overthrow of Chinese Imperial dynasty by Sun Yat-sen because it was influenced by European liberalism? But I bet you aren’t saying anything about Russian-influenced far right movements because you’re a useful idiot for Kremlin!

    Kremlin is trying to demonize the colour revolutions because it will undermine their own personal power. It was Putin who helped Lukashenko violently put down protests in Belarus and those in Kazakhstan. If democratic change happens in Russia and their satellite states, their own kleptocratic regimes will decline and their own hold to power. That’s why they demonize colour revolutions despite being organic. Autocratic governments and sock puppets like yourself do everything in their power to de-legitimise grassroots movements that undermine the ruling class’ hold to power.


  • The 1990s was the most peaceful and prosperous time in humanity. This is not universal, if you were in Russia, Rwanda or the Yugoslavia, but overall there was fewer conflict. Humanity as a whole was riding high on the end of cold war, democratisation, and economic growth.

    a utopia but the humans still rebelled.

    Humans will complain no matter what. There is catharsis.


  • The payphones are still available in my country in case of emergencies. They were refurbished and less dirty than they were in the past. But funny enough, some payphones were converted as first aid stations. As much as our government can be deliberately inefficient and corrupt, they are good with adapting to changing times to keep some public services relevant. One thing I’m proud of is our postal service, which branched out to mobile network operator and banking to stay relevant.







  • I don’t make fun of gen alpha for 67, but we have to admit that the meme is a random nonsense. Nyan cat, rage comics and vine clips do have a point which makes them funny, but shouting 67 while doing so without any purpose simply because it’s a meme is inherently pointless. Let the kids have fun with 67 but it is just so random.
