The only narratives that exist in Hexbear are ‘Nothing Ever Happens’ and ‘Something is Happening’

China?

Could be due to high doomerism

feel like this is the first positive international news i have heard in a long while

Its a good theory but unless the reality on the ground also align with that theory there is not much the left can do

Yes it is actually very naive. What is the alternative do you have? Suddenly make all youth in Nepal class conscious by the power of friendship in a day?

I think you are confusing left and the movement. The interim government has been formed which has more support than the former government. You want the left to go against the more popular government and alienate more people in the coming election?

Until this government also mess things up badly, there is not much to be done except organizing and agitating the now more politically involved youth.

Maybe after the crackdown on communist and socialist, but until then just worrying about it won’t lead to anything.

If the government tries to take any such action before they move against the left, we will be in the streets. Plus you might be looking into wrong direction. Nepal is better bartering ram against India than China. Geography is fun here.

Also Nepal is not strong enough to be used as Ukraine at all. The more I think about the comparison, the more absurd it gets

The former government was formed by China friendly party (CPN-UML) and US/India friendly (Nepali Congress). Anything related to China has been sabotaged and crushed by Nepali Congress.

BRI has been in a limbo for a long long time with no way forward. Only now Nepal can finally break itself from US meddling and move closer to China

I think we and other communist will be fighting in the street if it was really a color revolution.

Also we are not embracing the current government. It is going in better direction than before but that is in no way enough. The same old question of reform and revolution and it is the ‘reform’ government. The lack of any leadership or organization of the movement was the reason for its success but also the factor that has severely limited its effectiveness.

I have watched that video and it looks really bad but that is how things work in third world. The ineffectiveness of government forces NGOs to step up which will be entirely depended on foreign funding. ‘Hami Nepal’ has been doing good social work and it might be the first time it has been involved in politics. If you want to feel a bit better, ‘Hami Nepal’ is not the leadership of this movement. Sudan Gurung acted as the representative since no one else seem to be doing so and things went in that direction

Yeah but just looking the cause of the revolt and totally ignoring the result is bad analysis.

I would have totally agreeded with that but the final outcome was something that benefited none of the meddling foreign power (China might again get an Win by doing nothing later on)

They were trying to ban US social media at the wrong place and time. It was not going away, but it looked very very suspicious timing for general public.

They ‘played themselves’ because it removed center right government and now probably replaced by left (liberal) government.

The influence of US was increasing in Nepal. They are the last power than wants revolution in Nepal. Also Nepal is not Georgia, just looking at similarities in movement doesn’t mean it is the same condition in both countries.

It was funded by NGO that just happened to open the flood dam, accidentally removing pro western power

No any maneuvering by Juche party. Do not think they have enough credibility and authority to make any such moves.

Even they have been losing influence in their locality for few years now but now I really hope they will turn things around.

The opposition they faced from the previous federal government was pretty bad so at least one thing went well for them. But damn knew they were great but just started following them and they are based af.

if it was a US backed color revolution then they just played themselves

not really maneuvering to get leadership but that might be the correct decision. The current interim government will be for 6-12 months so wasting energy to get inside is not really important. Juche party has put forward a press release basically condemning the old government and kind of also not supporting the new government for being unconstitutional.

within two days of the formation of the government, the same group has started demanding the resignation of the newly appointed Prime Minister Sushil Karki, saying that she has not paid due attention to the treatment and compensation of the families of the martyrs and the injured.

Things are really murky on that. I do not know where it even originates from but it could be miss-information. Not really worth going into all that anymore, he has somehow turn most people wary of him after that stated being spread on social media.

Anyway things looking fine here. The pro-US government got oustead and the new government is also ‘liberal’ but more left than the Marxist-leninist party somehow.

No left really put their hope in a spontaneous horizontal movement with no leadership but it has helped release the pressure building in Nepal I guess.

Instead of being a unique event, it might just be one of the first. All the ‘strange event’ are just the things we noticed from previous color revolution. But that does not make those revolution any ‘less’ revolution for the people. People from surrounding countries being inspired and imitating such revolution is not really surprising event.

Using instagram to organize, discord to discuss and Facebook to share also seem less weird if looking from the perspective of Gen z. They are using the tools available to them to achieve their goal, unaware about the dangers inherent to such tools.

Just overthrow the government when they are sleeping lol

Nepal Army might have been the only capable institution and the only one to suffer no damage. They were and are the most respected institution even now.

Executive, Legislative and Judiciary structure all were target to some extend. So military was forced to intervene and could have absolutely taken power (on pretense of temporary solution) but instead immediately approached the disorganized masses to ask for our representative. That was a major reason for the quick formation of a unified front since we had one day to present our representative. The use of discord was also for same reason. Everything was moving very fast and we used tools that were immediately available to us

There are not really reliable sources available, even the Nepali media feels off

I only trust news from three sources for now

1. Nepal Army
2. Gen-Z movement official channel (fb, insta, discord)
3. RONB - fb page
