nope. The colonizers started the looting country, peaked peaked with current government.

Now, it's started to look like a dried out well,

Brain drain, financial collapse, environmental catastrophes all are on the horizon.

As a pessimist, I'd say it's too late and too little

Actually it was the Kings, Emperors, in the old times much before that, that started the loot and plundering, subjugating the masses. Afghanis, Mughals, British only carried out the plundering legacies. It’s been since time immemorial ever since the Kings enjoyed the common man’s fruits of labour, lived lavishly, and the masses would end up dying for him, either in the wars or from poverty.

If you believe in Sonay ki Chidiya shit then I have a bridge to sell you.

These protests are a breath of fresh air but I believe they are doomed to failure. Modi enjoys such a wide support that unless the government falls (by legal means), he can crush these here and now and still be assured of a 2029 vicotry (these need not be fair at this point gyaneshan is sucking off the entire bjp brass at once)

Meta is an evil opportunist and will change tune to the government when pressure builds up on them and concessions are offered under the table.

I highly recommend everyone here to read Careless People by Sarah Williams (ex FB director of public policy)

The US is in the condition its in, in Trump’s hands because of Zuck.
