Shit's going down in Bangladesh.
80 2018-08-04 by Ghdust2
It all starts with a group of students, they've been out on the streets since July 29, demanding safe road and justice for the two students who were killed in a road accident on Dhaka Airport Road. Shaheed Ramiz Uddin School and College students Diya Khanam Mim and Abdul Karim Rajib were killed, and several others were injured when a bus of “Jabal-e-Noor Paribahan” ploughed into a group of students on July 29. Here's the full article: https://www.dhakatribune.com/bangladesh/dhaka/2018/08/04/live-students-block-streets-in-uttara
The government of Bangladesh didn't respond well to the protests and the Awami league government run student body (Chatro League) along with police officials started firing guns, tear gas, stick charges, and raping the students.
The drama starts on Reddit when a user from Bangladesh named /u/farhadjaman attempts to raise awareness about the situation on r/pics, only to get the post removed. Link to removed r/pics post: https://www.reddit.com/r/pics/comments/94isl3/please_international_media_help_ushelp/
/u/farhadjaman's entire post history: https://www.reddit.com/user/farhadjaman
/u/farhadjaman then posts a comment in the r/worldnews thread, which gets gilded twice: https://www.reddit.com/r/worldnews/comments/94ivyd/school_students_have_been_protesting_in_demand/e3lflwy

The people involved here probably don't even respect bussy all that much.

About like 30 to 45 minutes ago I beat the fuck outta my dick so goddamn hard that I can't even feel my left leg, my left leg has went totally numb and my dick has also went totally numb to the point where it feels fucking weird when I take a piss.

Shit's always going down in the streets there.

This is what happens when you throw your lot in with India.

Begone Pakistani, you have no power here!

Pakis should just die tbqh
1 DrRockzosCocaine 2018-08-04
that one commenter is 100% right that he needs to take him and his family into hiding. His username is very well known and he could get fucked.
1 Mat_The_49th 2018-08-04
Literally, from the look of things.
1 DrRockzosCocaine 2018-08-04
According to another poster, who has family and friends there, Facebook is blocking, deleting and outright removing post's or peoples accounts there. This is seriously fucked up and I hope they make Zuckerberg answer for this one.

Ignoring government demands for censorship will only make other countries (especially the juciest market, China) more hostile to Facebook.
Just as Facebook applies censorship laws in Europe, even if they do not break US laws or even common sense, it will apply censorship laws in Bangladesh (which is even a sizeable market in its own right - 170 million people today, and closer to 300 million in a few decades).
1 aqouta 2018-08-04
There is a point where you have to say, "no, this is evil, I will not do this." I get they have share holders that they are beholden to but there are ethical limits, and this is clearly past them.
1 Methmo 2018-08-04
Companies are not people, they do not share your moral qualms.
Behind every atrocity, there is a company making a profit from supplying the perpetrators.
1 aqouta 2018-08-04
But they're run by people, every atrocity where a company is supplying the perpetrators there is a project manager who is the closest thing to real life evil.
1 RollBread 2018-08-04
Facebook have been pulling this shit for nearly a decade.
No one inside the tech industry is even remotely surprised by this, in fact it is anticipated.
Shit, they only got investigated and called put for it, what? Like six fucking times?
What is even the appeal, just use the superior site linkedin.
1 choriposting 2018-08-04
Right after they make Kissinger, I'm sure.
1 new_professor 2018-08-04
Better post his comment on /r/bestof then
1 shallowm 2018-08-04
Do you mean on reddit, or in real life?
I hope his username isn't his actual name, but even then, there are probably a lot of other people in the country with the same name.
1 a_cute_grill 2018-08-04
he needs to take his ass back into the factory because i need some new clothes
1 GreatTelephone 2018-08-04
Why, a building fell down or something?
1 Ghdust2 2018-08-04
Well, the protests started when a truck hit some college students.
1 GreatTelephone 2018-08-04
POO

Oh no, it's retarded.

Smh, that’s India. Bangladesh, despite being worse off by most every other measurable metric, is a lot better off in terms of sanitation, with the vast majority (I think 99%) of houses having indoor toilets.
1 allwordsaredust 2018-08-04
It’s the fact that they don’t even realise how ignorant they are while simultaneously taking the intellectual higher ground that bothers me.
As an aside, your reply surprised me, because it’s to a comment I made months ago and I’ve literally just commented on another subreddit about open defecation in India. I don’t believe I’ve ever touched on the subject on Reddit except in these two comments. Strange coincidence.

You forgot to change accounts, lol.

Next level brigading

I'm guessing that it's pasta or something, because that doesn't fit in this situation.

Is this peak post-irony?
1 Ohsoeasy 2018-08-04
Did anyone get it on video? I’m asking for a friend.
1 Fading_Joy 2018-08-04
Kinda curious as to why the livethread got deleted
1 ObnoxiousFactczecher 2018-08-04
So, a normal day?

ya but president trump tweeted about a basketball american yesterday

reddit got more important business

Who gives gold to someone who is going to get raped to death in the very near future?
1 myshl0ng 2018-08-04
Video proof?
1 totalrandomperson 2018-08-04
Police brutality is expected and encouraged everywhere around the world, but what the fuck is up with raping the students?
Is that /r/drama exaggeration or something that actually happened?
What the fuck are they, marauding band of raiders? Do they cut of ears and take trophies as well?
1 kellhusian 2018-08-04
No, that's completely serious. Rapes and murders.
1 kingofthehill5 2018-08-04
Ironically that's what the pakis did to them before the nobel indians(Who detest war and violence BTW) saved their asses, guess we have to save them again.
1 GuillotinesNOW 2018-08-04
Imagine not knowing the answer to "are all Pajeets rapists?"
1 Pol_Pots_Crockpot 2018-08-04
I really am baffled by the government’s response here. There was a hit and run, just jail the driver and make a bike lane. But instead they immediately jumped to firing potshots at protestors and rape. I mean it’s South Asia so I shouldn’t be surprised by the rape, but I am disappointed by it
1 DistortedLines 2018-08-04
Damn that's fucked up, what is wrong with the Bangladeshi government?
1 libelecsBlackWolf 2018-08-04
If you fall for this Religion of Peace propaganda operation, you pretty much admit you are just as stupid and gullible as the Generation of Peace Republicans who share political posts on Facebook.
1 moudougou 2018-08-04
wut
1 libelecsBlackWolf 2018-08-04
Look how fast the story gathered upvotes. Look how many golds it got. Stories as serious as this one don't become so popular so fast, least of all from a backwater country like Bangladesh. Look at the content of the stories: a student having his eyes gouged out? Four female students being repeatedly raped by police? Repressive maneuvers don't work like that. Even the most blood-thirsty dictatorship are smart enough to avoid wasting time in unnecessary cruel acts like those. But they are the kind of stories that riles people up abroad.
This was orchestrated, and considering that the opposition to the current Bangladesh government comes from Islamists trying to create yet-another Religion of Peace theocracy, it wouldn't surprise me one bit that they are the ones that organized this operation.
1 moudougou 2018-08-04
so this is merely a speculation on your part
1 neutralvoter 2018-08-04
OP literally associates the importance of a world event by how many times news of it gets gilded on reddit... jesus christ man.
Every time a story comes up like this everyone pops in, upvotes or gives gold, feels satisfied they did their part to save the world, and goes on to watching the newest shitty hip hop video on youtube. This is where fat lazy's go to make a difference. The fact you don't see that for what it is means you're one of them. So fuck off back to r/worldnews
1 GuillotinesNOW 2018-08-04
pfft you really gonna sit here and act like twitter didn't successfully put an end to Kony and ALS?
1 FluffyKitty91 2018-08-04
Doesn't this seem kind of like racist propaganda? Islam is a religion of peace. Why would they rape like that? Drumpf is going to eat this up.
