Bathroom,

Debate aside, I must say I noticed a softening in your attitude and a little bit of style too compared to how you used to present yourself in the past. I do not see your favorite adjectives (moron, gadha, son-of-a-bitch) and your omnipotent argument (Hahahaha) anymore or much. I hope these are your genuine growing up and they have nothing to do with the fact that you might know that now some of us know your real identity, Mr. S. R from Boston (just to prove that I know who you are and I am not going to reveal it unless you revert back to your old nasty self).

Now as for your arguments, it must be acknowledged that this Terai unrest and a few other scattered secessionist extremism have taken everybody (ok only the republicans) by surprise.

I must also admit that I am still trying to fully understand what’s going on. A straightforward logic should tell that the change as big as one Jan Andolan II brought (opening up the state for almost open-ended restructuring ) must make all the excluded/marginalized groups happy, optimistic and participating in the process. That’s only partially happening or not happening at all.

It almost feels like the republicans have lost the argument to the monarchist/royalists who were saying the King is the uniting force. But I am sure that is not the case. King does not look like a uniting force at all, if you were suggesting that too.

I am sure the current chaos is partly normal transitional chaos and partly the failure of SPAM leaders in managing it with the vigilance, sensitivity (less self-indulgence) and efficiency it required.

I know SPAM is not going to change much. However, whatsoever they are forced to do would be enough to bring things in track.

For few years, when major debate is going on about the restructuring of the state, chaos is to be expected. There is no smooth way, there is no going back, there is no alternative.
