Hindus are being gangraped, lynched, and having their property destroyed in Bangladesh rn. Amidst all the news coming out of there don't forget about the minority that always ends up dealing with the brunt of chaos. in 1971 most of the victims of the genocide were Bangladeshi Hindus and everyone conveniently leaves this detail out.

(And i know some mf will either no true scotsman this or say that it's all lies and that all the videos coming out are fake or propaganda from the BJP or something instead of another event in a long chain of violence. The Hindu population has crashed from 30% at independence to 9% today. Estimates say that in the next 30 years, Hindus will be extinct in Bangladesh)

Please reblog for a bigger sample size!

If you have any fun fact about Bangladesh, please tell us and I'll reblog it!

Be respectful in your comments. You can criticize a government without offending its people.

its crazy how it's accepted that there's so many different types of white people but when it comes to POC and especially brown / desi people we're all just seen as like... indian or something . and not even indian just a stereotype of what people think indians are

Brutality in Bangladesh

internet connection slowed down , server down , school , colleges shut down to prevent from protesting and shielding . It's all planned so we stop speaking about our rights.

A boy was shot straight into the heart causing him spot death by the police while protesting.

The protesters are being brutally killed , raped beaten by a sub section of the existing government's party 'chatro league'(students' league)

The protesters ask for their rights for the seats rightfully earned in universities.

They want the so called ' quotas ' that are a percentage of seats reserved for various special cases but nowadays seldom used currectly.

When they express with their verbal right to have these quotas specially the so called fredom fighter quota lessened or removed, the peaceful proteters face attacks from police , and tear gas attacks.

There have been many killed and injured. A huge ammount of women raped and assulted.

I see no one talking abt bangladesh right now and most people are focusing on england but basically a couple weeks ago the uni students started protesting against the job/admission quota previously in place where a percentage of the accepted applicants can get in on other claims such as the women's qouta (it was 10% i think) the disabled quota (somewhere like 1-5%) and the 1971 freedom fighters quota w/ their children and grandchildren which was a whooping 30%.

Naturally people were kinda against that. This girl i talked to on the bus told me she was in 406th position based on her merit but wasn't able to get physics on her uni subject but a guy on the 2385th position did cuz he admitted to the quota system on basis of having a freedom fighter grandparent. So naturally she went to protest too.

Unfortunately politics are a finicky thing so soon you have small terrorist groups attacking the students and causing more destruction and arson. Now there is a death toll. The prime minister has already called the protestors rajakar for going against the 'legacy of our independence' (for context rajakar is basically a slur around here which was used to refer to people from our side during the was who helped pakistan and killed and tortured people worse than they ever did. It was... not a good move)

It gets worse and the police get involved students die. Police officers die. Both of them blame each other. The actual perpetrators are still at large.

The students started a nine point demand but it wasn't accepted and instead people died. So they just turned it into a one point demand for the resignation of the prime minister who has been handling the entire situation quite poorly and has already made things was worse.

As of today on Aug5 near the afternoon (in GMT+6 at least) the former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina resigned. And now we await further news.

Someone mircoagressed me last week by saying that islam doesn't let women get educated "based on what he's seen." unlike judaism and modern chirstianity, where education is led by women.

Maybe if you stop doing silly little things like decimating every single university in a muslim state that had high rates of female literacy and education ❤️

This guy is an athiest traumatized by church, but somehow it all translated to a hatred of islam over anything.

These people really don't see what huge white supremacists they are. The new norm for white people is to let go of all religion. You aren't unique or special for choosing that. It's your current norm.

And they get so mad when you refuse to drop your personal beliefs and bend to their current mainstream ideology as well. What does that sound liKKKe?

you ever think about how wild it is that some parts of the world tornados just arent really A Thing. like yeah they can HAPPEN but theyre such a fucking rarity and usually super weak so its not really a worry (beyond the fact that, well, any tornado happening in those places can be Bad bc no one expects them/is prepared for them). other natural disaster stuff its easy enough "oh some places get more earthquakes than others bc of fault lines" yeah totes makes sense "oh some places have to worry about tsunamis due to being right beside the ocean" oh yea no i see why ohio isnt getting many tsunamis but christ i aint even gonna try to write out Why America Has So Many Tornados bc i do NOT understand this shit and the more i learn about it the less i understand. what the fuck.
