  • Word coming out of Nepal is suggesting that this wasn’t / isn’t about social media, it’s just being reframed as such to minimise what’s happening, as if it’s just silly kids (being that it’s Gen z and Gen alpha) who can’t cope without social media. But what happened was the two party system they’ve been running on, since abolishing the monarchy, formed a coalition and then ran everything so as to profit for themselves, and flaunted that lavish lifestyle, while there were no jobs and they’d cut all essential services to the people. People were having to travel to other countries for jobs and send money home for their families. The nepo baby hashtags are the politicians kids, flaunting their lavish lifestyles. The people could have just used vpns, it’s not about the social media ban, main stream media is trying to quash what’s happening in case other people who are currently similarly oppressed, become emboldened by what’s happening in Nepal. Their government is very corrupt.


  • This is not about social media bans, it’s against the corrupt government. It’s being reframed. If you think about it, if the only problem was social media ban, they’d just all get vpns. They’re not stupid. They’re trying to frame it as silly kids, (because they’re all gen z and Gen alpha, in their school uniforms, so as to be less likely to be shot) who can’t live without social media. But it’s not, it’s protesting deep government corruption. If word gets out that it’s a protest against government corruption, other people facing similar oppression, may become emboldened, so it’s being buried.



  • Because the propaganda aimed at getting women to remember their place and get back to domestic chores, still lingers today and people think that’s HOW it was, not that they had to try and shove a cat back in a bag, somehow. When women had to do all the blokey jobs while the men’s were all at war, and realised, yeah, they’re capable of this, sometimes better at it, earning a wage, something unheard of for women, as they would still need a man to have a bank account or credit card or sign anything or have a lease on a house, until the 1970s, in some places. But yeah. It wasn’t like that. Women were miserable and oppressed and drugged up just to get by. Grandma’s hydrangeas were sometimes the only way to leave a violent relationship. But yeah, probs was fine for the blokes. They got to fight in a war, pocket some trauma to take home, force themselves back into the daily grind with no recognition of that trauma and nowhere to outlet it… I’m not going to start on intergenerational trauma, I promise.

    Either that or, the grass is always greener… Yk.
