Want to add a couple of points here: We, the young generation, need to change our analysis and understanding of the country's situation. So far, our opinions reflect our background, our class interests. If we are well off, well connected with the palace, we support the monarchy. If we are connected with the parties, we support them. If we are disconnected with both of them, and with the maoists, we think that politics is a freaking business of others and we resort to scolding everybody. It is obvious that your understanding comes from the circle you belong to. From whom we live, we interact, we give and take. But we need to change this habit now if we want to forget the bitter past and find a new future.. Forget where you come from. See how functioning democracies around the world operate. Respect the values of a free society - freedom of expression, social justice, each individuals bound by same law, equal oppurtunity etc. If you believe in the basics of freedom and equality, you don't feel sad when Gyanendra is ousted from absolute power and when Kamal Thapa is screwed. They did no good for the country, they were worse than the politicians. That is what the Nepali mass decided, that was their slogan in the demos. This parliament is handling Kamal Thapa, a new parliament can handle Prachanda, Khum Bahadur and others. Just believe in the basics of democracy. Today is good than yesterday and tomorrow will be better, if you give up your class interests for more rational causes. Hari om tassat.
