I had never posted there before and if I was banned before I wouldn’t be able to press on Create Post. I checked but have never received a message before from r/bangladesh that I was banned. I think they have an automatic filter that picked up on the words ‘US sponsored coup’. Can someone post the same picture as me with the same text to see if this is not just a me thing? I checked, I can create comments in other subreddits but can’t post comments or posts in r/bangladesh anymore even though I didn’t receive a notification I’m banned. I can’t even see the list of moderators of r/bangladesh anymore.
But another reminder the Reddit is a US website with links to their government and a lot of national subreddits are compromised like r/afghanistan
okay, i can’t stay silent any longer.
i doubt r/bangladesh has been CIA’d but definitely stay away from r/dhaka - that one has 100% been CIA’d based on recent discovery (where one of the mods is literally named westminister institute). try r/chekulars, it’s where the leftists hang out.
hindutva media has been peddling on and on and on about how this is an us-backed color revolution, nevermind the fact that this happened because the previous government:
i will say though, i wish people here stopped defending hasina so much. she’s not even leftist. i for one am glad that she’s gone, even if it doesn’t change a single situation regarding queer people like me, or the fact that the left (actual socialist/commie left) is still very much dead. but at the same time, people can actually say what’s on their mind now without worrying about chatro league assassins or coppers getting in their houses for “saying the wrong thing” or “believing the wrong thing”.
i’ll talk more about this in some other time, but, yeah. like i said, try posting in r/chekulars.
Thank you for your perspective. That’s what lacking, a Bengali perspective. I agree with you about Hasina, but was very confused about how to view the new leadership. That’s why I was asking around.
no worries, sorry if i came off as harsh/angry. i’m just frustrated by people who seem to be so quick on throwing “color revolution! color revolution!” tags without understanding the overall situation that led to this to happen in the first place.
iirc, yunus was a wanted man here during hasina’s times. so that probably explains why he came back after hasina ran away (ironic and hypocritical, given that she said “she doesn’t run away” on press conference when people - back during the revolution - thought she’d run away and ask for asylum in spain when she had a diplomatic mission thing going on in spain)
but i’ve seen most people agreeing that yunus is a good leader for us right now, especially when 100% hitler (far-right islamist parties like BNP-Jamaat-IAB) are right in the corner. also the only other popular political parties around now that 99% hitler - the BAL has been ousted; and the bangladeshi left continues to be a fucking skeleton.
but i’m seeing some people trying to revitalize it too though, so who knows. one thing’s for sure - the left’s not popular here and i think i would’ve been a bit more happier and intrigued if this revolution was led by leftists, or was a socialist revolution (a la the october revolution) led by maybe all the lefty students in chatro union/moitri along with the guys in the left democratic alliance? oh well.
apparently the students who led this revolution are also making a political party of their own, so that might be another popular opposition for the time being. doubt it’s gonna be a very leftist one for sure. but defo not far-right.
these are fine points but it’s unfortunately how a color revolution works - they hijack whatever real contempt there is in society
HK riots first happened because HKers rightfully did not want to be extradited to China, which they consider a pretty foreign place. a HK man killed his girlfriend in Taiwan and he was to be extradited to China.
what are your thoughts on “If I Handed St Martin Island to the U.S., I’d Still Be PM”- Former Prime Minister of Bangladesh Sheikh Hasina

why are we taking the words of a hypocritical professional yapper who - said she doesn’t run away, only to run away when students were about to get into the gonobhobon (prime minister’s house) - seriously?
once again, she implies that all this happened only because uncle sam was denied from getting his toys; nevermind the fact that she kept pushing the quota law onto us and kept flexing her muscle whenever we tried to talk against it. we tried to do this peacefully, but she decided to intimidate us and gun us down instead. none of us even had guns, just sticks and stones at best. and yet that’s enough to frighten hasina’s goons into gunning us down. something about if peaceful resolution/revolution is impossible, violent revolution becomes inevitable.
Indian media does not care about the “colour revolution” aspect of it. In fact Hindutva media for some reason never ever criticises USA regardless how warranted it may be. They are mischaracterising it as an agitation led by the Islamist far right and hyperfocusing on the violence against the Hindu Banglas.
