It helps that the country is small enough for substantial amount of the population to be able to go there
it's the exact opposite. the helpful thing is if you don't need a substantial portion of the entire population to be at a protest to get anything done. it's much harder to halt the entire society for a protest than having so many people that .1% of the population would still be a scary crowd.
Seems like the U.S. should take notes.
The pictures coming out of Nepal RN are insane!
NVM they're angry at nepo kids. That makes much more sense. Carry on:
It's happening because of india. Indian government trying to control nepal. So much corruption in nepal because of interfering by indian government. Hopefully the new government will be secular and truly free from foreign control. Same thing happened in bangladesh also. India was controlling that country. After the revolution now bangladesh has distanced itself from india.
Americans, listen and learn from the professionals!
Can you really see this working in the United States? Trump would literally give orders to mow everyone in the streets down, and he would frame it as protecting the country from violence. His base would expand greatly from this, as propaganda around destabilization from riots would successfully stoke fear in his voters, as well as a number of independent voters.
The only reason January 6th got as far as it did is because Trump, the sitting president, wanted the violence to succeed. We can see clearly that this is the case from the fact he pardoned every last one of them, including the most violent.
The US military is the most monied military in the world by a massive, enormous margin. If it is used against the people, then the people will face absurd losses well before any resolution resembling what we're seeing in this story. It may come to that still... But make no mistake, this is not going to work as well in the US right now. It's not even remotely the same situation.
After all of this is done, who will now lead? There will almost be a power vacuum after the revolution, and they don't always end good
You're not wrong, a government removed without democracy isn't a great process for any nation.
