Holy based Batman. I have heard it’s a left leaning revolution, but that’s about it. It’s about corrupt politicians being super rich while everyone else is in poverty. Sounds familiar.
I’m not sure it’s particularly left or right leaning, there was a ban on social media, protests against the ban and the protestors were shot by armed police which sparked more protests and riots, the major grievance seems to be political corruption.
I don’t think any of ^ really slots into a traditional left/right framework, that said the more I read about Nepalese politics the more confused I become.
the corrupt government they are overthrowing is a coalition between Nepali Congress and the Communist Party of Nepal (Unified Marxist–Leninist). Although prime minister Oli comes from the communist partner in the coalition despite them being the minor partner? But I have also read that they unified ml party merged with another communist party a while back?
Either way, glad to see corrupt politicians being replaced.

That is mega based considering no government military attacked them. That’s presumably the Ghandi trap at work, which is a good sign for them
