When some top media outlets and their sympathizers in the opposition, civil society and young generation work together against the establishment, it may not take too long to unseat a government. It’s not surprising that a harsher reaction from the executive and legislative bodies of the State is imminent. The incumbents would try their best to reestablish order.
Now, the apolitical people need to assess which side is better and fairer (because no one is a saint). They need to gather information from various sources and analyze them objectively to make a decision, unless they’ve a bias.
Politics in Digital Bangladesh: Boomerang for AL, Boon for opponents
Don’t normalize hatred, brutality and politricks, pls!
Since early July, some anti-government political parties have been backing their Dhaka University units to wage a movement against the government. However, the problem was that the demands didn’t seem illogical to the government. The students just needed to wait for the Appellate Division of the Supreme Court hearing, in which they could also be an active party and place their arguments for a 5% quota or no quota against the previous 56%.

But we know that it’s the third world where ethical standards, social norms, and the rule of law are weak, the education system is a hotchpotch, and teachers, police and government officials are appointed to violate rules, and enjoy impunity despite committing massive corruption.
Who will teach the children to grow as good human beings? A fanatic teacher or politician or police officer?
While it’s obvious that hostility against freedom fighters has been seen among a particular group of people since independence, the discrimination against women and hatred against their empowerment have increased significantly since the late 1990s.
These youths are called Gen Z, most of whom got GPA due to the government’s policy to give everyone grace numbers and make everyone happy. Many of them can’t pronounce Bengali and English alphabets and can’t write a few sentences correctly. They use Facebook, YouTube, TikTok to learn shortcuts to fame and money, and make viral content—be it a rumour.
They know less; they’re careless and shameless. They’re like the arrogant prince of a mighty king!
So, dear citizens, think wisely before you take a side.
