Totally shocked to see the damage to statues of such important people in the history of Bangladesh.

I wasn’t trying to justify w the violence at all, more just a rationale for the reason why they were rioting. I agree that a lack of jobs & opportunities is common in other countries too but more and more we are seeing protests turn violent in other countries too.

I do think the election this year has also been a big factor. Usually if people are unhappy they could vote out an incumbent but I don’t think you could call the recent election free & fair. When this happens a number of times the people will eventually rise up.
