The next time someone tells you the youth aren’t engaged enough in politics, just point them to Nepal.
According to multiple reports, the youth of the South Asian nation managed to oust the existing government following an attempted ban of major social media platforms and took to Discord to hold an impromptu convention to elect an interim prime minister.
The organizing appears to have worked. On Friday, the military accepted the recommendation of the protest group and named Karki the interim prime minister. Karki, who accepted the role, is expected to pick a new cabinet and eventually hold elections. According to the Times, that is expected to happen within the next six months or so.
Lol “pirate flag”. I’ve never watched One Piece but its from that isn’t it? They raised an anime flag
In One Piece, the main characters are pirates, sure, but that doesn’t make them ‘anti-heroes’.
This is because the world government of One Piece is Authoritarian / Fascist / Feudalist.
This flag has been used all over Asia by youth to express unity in dissatisfaction with corruption and a system that is stacked against them. I think it started in Indonesia, but I am not sure.
