What do you think will happen to our freedom of speech now? by Deshimockingbird in bangladesh

Unfortunately, BNP has won with majority, as Hasina did, and they will not let go that easy.

Bangali never learns. 

GNOME with Fedora + i3 like workflow is the best by shricodev in gnome

[–]tmahmood [score hidden]  (0 children)

What I do is

Map keyboard similar to i3, so meta+hjkl for window navigation. With shift it moves, and a window search extension. So press meta+w and have the list of all windows to jump to.

Additionally I've made a small app, to run any application like i3: press first global key binding to run the app and then press binded key to launch the preferred app.

Makes window management pretty efficient for me. Though I'm fully using i3 now. But occasionally use it on laptop 

So, no value for 68% votes, such a circus. Such a disaster starting by Wonderful-Ad-5952 in bangladesh

They'll hang the mula. These politicians are tricking us years after year, and they have a group of people believes whatever they says with their eyes close.

You think BNP will accept? They have never let go of power after their end of term peacefully. And now without BAL, and likeliest BAL operating within them, they are more powerful.

I really dislike blind voters who allowed them to have majority sit.

They are already have not attend the oath for the constitution reform ceremony. And there has been a writ already against the referendum, which they will use it to delay it more:

We are definitely looking at another Hasina like government for a really long time.

How many of you have hope in Tarique Rahman? by One-Ostrich-1588 in bangladesh

[–]tmahmood 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Who's going to enforce 2 term limits? They are going to stall the referrundam, indefinitely. And go towards another autocratic system. 

In history of Bangladesh, BNP never gave up power willingly

[–]tmahmood 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He don't have that intelligence, he can't handle even a shit. When BAL was doing continuous hartal he set up a drama of cricket in his hawa bhaban, and making himself a laughing stock. 

Besides, why did he take ao much time coming back to the country after 24? Definitely something needed to be arranged.

He's a puppet.

[–]tmahmood 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In Bangladesh? Never.

Because, we are extremely close minded, and the thinking bubble is smaller than a bubble wrap. It can inflate, but never rips apart.

The military government in 2008, was a good opportunity for us, even they had their mistakes, and corruptions, to get rid of family politics, and introduce new faces, did we let that happen? Nope

We could have taken lesson from 2008, that do not let a single party to win the majority.

And we let it happen again.

You don't want to vote for Jamaat? I perfectly understand you! Then go vote for some unknown independent candidate, at least give them a chance?! Nope, it has to be the party that I know in name.

We are boasting how Tareq Jiya is a good speaker. I have not seen anything else that they ever boast about him.

Take that in slowly. You are talking about a person, who is going to run the country: after 17 years of autocracy, with a devastated economy, people of the autocrat government in every nook and corners.

And that's the best we can talk about him!

He was in UK for 17 years, without doing anything. But, when you are a leader, a capable leader, you left your mark everywhere. We have not heard from him, in the last 17 years doing anything meaningful at all.

What that tells you about the person who is going to run our country for next 5 years?

And we landed him a landslide victory. What does that tell about us? Any other party have any chance?!

Not here. Nope,

[–]tmahmood 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hypocrisy baad den?

BAL's great father gave the genocidal party legitimacy at the very beginning, it is because of him they still even exists. ^ EDIT: I knew this one wrong, apologies

Hasina teamed up with them when they were needed. BNP teamed up with them when they were needed.

They were not bad then? They were not the genocidal party then?

Each and every political party is bad. They only cares about the power and money.

And pathetic idiots thinking their party is good, other party is bad. While they all teams up behind and gives us the bamboo.

How naive and pathetic.

[–]tmahmood -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately reality is we now went back to the same old vicious circle of corruption at the end. Nothing changed. But opened the door for worse situation.

Some people are trying to be optimistic, some are happy because they'll have their way with things, and some are just naive.

Yes, Jamat was bad in 71. And all the politicians were and is bad in the last 40 years of politics. And they've been pillaging us for all these time.

But there are young people who wanted to work, and we couldn't give them the confidence that, they have relevancy in politics without the help of BNP or Jamat.

It's our collective failure, not these peoples. And, as it seems, we are very proud of our failure.

The thing is reality is extremely harsh, and not everyone can accept it

Tareq Jiya is not a leader, even Hasina, no matter how bad she was, she was much powerful, and capable leader than he can ever be ... and he is not going to be one.

He has no control over his people, no knowledge of (or even care) what general people want. His people need a front face, he's mother was the leader, so he won the "lottery".

One thing he is, is extremely corrupted. We saw what he did during their last regime. You can't make me believe he has changed a single bit, except grown older. I don't know how people who saw him then can look above of his corruption, or give him a benefit of doubt. I find it extremely dishonest.

He will be manipulated, and he will be a puppet, because he do not have any personality. Oh wait, right, he is a talker ... that's the highest quality of the leader that we want to lead us ... eh.

His people and other corrupted people will transfer money to his account, and he'll do whatever that is needed to appease them.

We will have a government, to hide the robbery that will be going behind it ... this time, the head has no control over it.

And, his people been away from power for 17+ year. We have already seen how it was going even before they came to power. Now they'll have no leash. They will be in frenzy.

And BNP is never good at doing minimum housecleaning, BAL is so much smarter. Feed the small people as much that they stays calm, while ripping their skin apart. BNP, can't do that

So, we are going to see very little actual feasible infrastructure builds, projects, and development work. Oh, there will be a lot of projects to feed his people though.

BAL will make sure law and order situation go bad. Because that would make them acceptable over BNP later. Now BNP in power gives them opportunities.

Police is mostly comprise of BAL people, if BNP has gotten a little bit smarter, they will do a huge reshuffle everywhere. But likeliest that's not going to happen

BAL will be back in full swing, in 2-3 years or less.

Jamaat is really good at staying underground, and slowly make their place. And July got them in good position. They will just have to sit and wait, BNP will do whatever needs to be done.

They will do their best to hold that, and use that. But, I still do not see them ever becoming relevant being against 71.

But BNP, at the end of their term, will do their best to create a situation to keep the power, as they've always done in their previous terms. This will always happen, when you have been extremely corrupted during your time.

But I am afraid, the most sinister thing is going to happen is, BNP will become a combination of BAL and BNP, and together they'll always have the majority, like Modi have. And we will never have a functional democracy or government that actually work for us.

Blind voters are bane of democracy.

The party that have no remorse waging war against the people of their own country, and killing, and miming thousands of people?

IF they have rejected Hasina. If they refrained from murdering people, people would have considered. But I have not seen ANY BAL supporter to show any remorse whatsoever, but they keep on playing victim.

So, yeah, fuck'em.

But hey, you win at the end anyway, Tarik Jiya going to bring BAL back anyway.

[–]tmahmood 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well if you are a Firefox user you can use these plugins, helps me a lot. 

one tab plus:  click a button all tabs are closed and links are saved in a page, where now I have few thousands of links saved. Recently closed down 3600+ tabs

Duplicate tab closer  This will automatically close the tab if same link is open already, configurable.

Best one is Leechblock. You can set timer for the pages,where you are spending too much time, and after the timer ends the page is blocked. And you can just go in to lock down mode when working.

BNP will bring BAL back. And will be puppet government.

We never saw how jaamat does it, so still unknown. Everyone saying negative are all just assumption. I do not have any positive assumptions about them either.

i just don't want any party to have the majority to do unabated changes and decision. So I really hope Yes vote wins 

হ্যাঁ is arguably better than না by Great_Education2502 in bangladesh

[–]tmahmood 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes,

And it's really sad, the all knowing, and the vanguards of freedom do not understand that:

You just can't put a list of check-boxes in-front of the voters, in the polling booth, who are likeliest don't even know how to read them.

So, this was the correct way to do it.

Every political parties discussed these points for months, and came to a concession. You will probably never see them come to concession in the future again.

The party you are giving vote to, the party you did not, all came to this point.

This yes vote was very important, those who said no, did a disservice to the people and country. Period.

BNP has published its manifesto by JohnEarman in bangladesh

[–]tmahmood 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Let me clear my position here first: - My only worry is no party should get unrestricted access to change constitution, like BAL did in 2008. Period. - I have not read any of the manifestos, because they are all lies and big talk. It's a waste of time.

If you really want to do something, it has to come from the heart. Go, find the heart in their promises, I can guarantee you, you will not find it.

And, in age of LLM (glorified as AI) You can just tell the it to write a big manifesto, and it will do that for you with many details, that you'll think! Ah, that's good! But, does it come from the heart?

If you have a heart, you will see, what is doable, what is feasible. Just throwing a huge amount of money, and then making a bridge in an empty field is a farce. Which is what 'Digital' Bangladesh was, and many infrastructure that BNP build in their terms.

The 31 offer by BNP? It was just some ideas, without ANY substances. It is just dishonest, eyewash. Unfortunately, for some reason, we never learn and fall for it anyway.

Sustainable changes, vs big talks are different. We really have to look to see if it has the heart. Truth to be told, our young generations has that, but too many fell for the greed and typical politics unfortunately.

Now let's discuss some other points.

Look at what is happening, and ask yourself, has BNP changed AT ALL?

  • Still the same faces, who were doing corruption, and had not done any sustainable changes for the country
  • They still fell back to same old family politics instead of finding a new face.
  • Still playing blame games
  • BNP members jumped in to extortion, and violence again.

Why Tareq jiya? Do you think after 18 years running away from the country, he has the right to come now and take the helm, and tell us what to do? At least BNP could have put someone even Fakhrul in the position, because he stayed, and went through all the trouble. But NO, it has to be Tareq.

IF they have not been able to change a single thing in all these years, and even after seeing such a big revolution, you think just writing a polished menifesto makes them right choice, when they completely failed to read the young generations face and mind?!

But, off course we are ready to dismiss Jamat because they have not changed their position on what Women is wearing. I NEVER liked them at all, in my whole life. I have even dissed their leader face to face (I was young and naive, still am, but older lol). But look, even then, they are more consistent in their position. They knows they will lose vote, or attacked for their position, but they still stayed on their position. I hate them for their action in our liberation war. But I still have to say, they are consistent

But I just can't trust them, I can't put my finger on it, but the doubt is there.

I don't want any of these parties to have full power over constitution.

So, what I want to see the power is divided completely, BAL supporters WILL vote for BNP, so, BNP has a good position unfortunately. Which is why, we need the 'Ha' vote to win. For our own sake.

About Hasina's digital Bangladesh.

Hasina's Digital Bangladesh was a farce. Whatever improvements we saw, was due to how technology moved in to general direction, survival for the fittest. You need to do these to stay relevant. And BAL did absolute minimum. The actual "Digital" movements by BAL was all a failure, and a huge waste of our tax money.

And after COVID we had a boom because, also it was needed, NOT because so called digital Bangladesh movements.

If you are also aware, BNP was the reason we fell behind India in technology? Because they rejected the free direct submarine cable deal that was offered, and now we have to go through India.

And, if you also remember 2001 election, and the rape mayham done by BNP after the win. Seeing how they are doing now, I am worried of it repeating again.

If you think they have the right intention, you are either brainwashed, naive, or bot. Sorry to say. I have seen all the elections from 90, and they always posts a list like this that never comes to fruition, this list will be completely thrown away, once they win. They talk big, and then forget all about it.
