  • No, the weirdest kids are the ones who show up to class everyday just to talk their heads off in the back of the room. Can you imagine that? Imagine spending 10K to dick around instead of actually pay attention.

    we call those people “backbenchers” over here lmao, and they’re pretty common over here actually

    unless the teacher is a strict one, expect them on the back/middle to [albeit a bit quietly] yap about stuff even while class is going on

    but yeah, i also wished they’d wait until the class was over because goddamn it makes it hard to concentrate sometimes 😵‍💫😵‍💫










  • Hi! Sorry I was late to get back to you. I was asking around other Bangali Communists to see if they had any book recommendations of their own as well (and to check if my recommendations thus far were fine). After talking with them, this is the list of books that I’d recommend to read regarding the History and Politics of our country:

    1. 🇧🇩 JASOD er Utthan Poton (জাসদের উত্থান পতন)
    2. 🇧🇩 Amar Fashi Chai (আমার ফাঁসি চাই)
    3. 🇧🇩 Ami Major Dalim Bolchi (আমি মেজর ডালিম বলছি)
    4. 🇧🇩 Tajuddin Ahmed: Neta o Pita (তাজউদ্দীন আহমেদ: নেতা ও পিতা)
    5. 🇧🇩 BNP: Shomoy o Oshomoy (বিএনপি: সময় ও অসময়)
    6. 🇧🇩 Protinayok: Shirajul Alam Khan (প্রতিনায়ক: সিরাজুল আলম খান)
    7. 🇬🇧 Bangladesh: A Legacy of Blood
    8. 🇬🇧 Bangladesh: Unfinished Revolution

    Bangladesh flagged ones (🇧🇩) are Bangla Language sources, while UK flagged ones are English Language sources. But I’d still recommend reading all of them, if you can read Bangla.

    Just a note:

    1. Tajuddin Ahmed: Neta o Pita was written by Tajuddin Ahmed’s Daughter, so there might be some bias towards him.
    2. Likewise, Amar Fashi Chai has an anti-hasina bias (good) and some things written there are being disputed. But it was written by a freedom fighter as well, so…
    3. Ami Major Dalim Bolchi is an autobiography written by Major Dalim himself. So there may be some bias here too. Major Dalim is an important figure in Bangladeshi History because he’s the one behind the killing of Mujib and (most of) his family in 1975.

    But all three of them are still a must-read to figure out how Mujib and his daughter, Hasina were like.

    JASOD er Utthan Poton goes on about the Rise and Fall of JASOD - the first political party to come out of Liberated Bangladesh. It used to be a part of Sheikh Mujib’s then-Awami League, but because Mujib would keep neglecting them for the more yes man-y faction of the Awami League, they departed from the Awami League to form their own party. “JASOD” btw, stands for JAtiyo ShOmajtantrik Dal. In english this would mean “National Socialist Party”, if the nazis didn’t ruin this term for everyone. No, JASOD isn’t a fascist party. They really are socialist as they say.

    BNP: Shomoy o Oshomoy goes on about how BNP - the Bangladesh Nationalist Party - came into being. BNP is the second most popular political party over here, the first one used to be BAL.

    I’d also recommend researching about Ershad and Jatiyo Party, as he murdered Ziaur Rahman to get into power. He ruled this country for 8 years straight before a student-led mass movement happened in the 90s to get him off the throne.





  • What the fuck does wife beating have anything to do with my post, you racist, defensive jackass? Do you beat your wife or something?

    If there was “no way” you could’ve known that it was a “MiXtUrE oF LaNgUaGeS”, maybe you shouldn’t have listed it as a misspelling, huh? Maybe you could’ve asked what it meant or clarified that beforehand?

    Bold of you to think that I was trying to “pULL a GoTcHa” when it was a genuine fucking question from my end.

    …oh hey, weren’t you the same person who had a problem with people liking anime stuff - to the point you called them “predditors” for it and even scared away a trans person from the Touhou community while I was away?

    What the fuck are you still doing in the grad?
