Nepal: Not on the brink of collapse

Many times when people give their rhetorics on democracy, it includes an acceptance of bloodshed and massacre, which although may seem like a logical argument, fails to take into account that you are placing the lives of the people at stake with the hope that it will have a positive outcome down the line at some hopefully not to distant future.

So you technically agree that hundreds if not thousands need to be killed needlessly so that perhaps the country may achieve a better political system. The problem I always have with this kind of rhetorics is that - Where Is the Guarantee that such unnecessary killings will lead to a better democracy? What is the country keeps falling into an endless abyss and then later on gets taken over by a helpful neighboring country?

It is not natural or patriotic to volunteer massacres and death to your fellow citizens with the hope that you might be right someday.

As far as making attempt to deny our country's impoverished state, it is all but futile. We have people living subsistence lifestyle. They farm and eat what they produce. Perhaps they get to eat enough but they don't have anything else!, and we cannot claim that they are living a full life. Even prehistoric human beings were living subsistence lifestyle, and in to hint that that is fine for people living in this day and age is just wrong. You are just trying to justify your own opinions.

Nepal is on the brink of collapse and let's not feed any misguided information to the public. I am tired of people pedalling hope. Every few days, a new face emerges pedalling hope and manupulated truth to show their own greatness.
