An interesting take on the current events in Bangladesh that i think is worth considering but i'm not sure that i agree with this perspective. Honestly i just don't know enough yet about the situation and i will reserve judgement until i do.

The original protests were allegedly over some really shit affirmative action for government jobs. Descendants of the veterans of their independence/separation from Pakistan had half the jobs reserved for them. Government jobs are a big deal over here and I assume in Bangladesh as well because even though the pay isn't great they are stabler and less demanding than private sector jobs. So I kinda understand why this was protested.
But the protests went on after their Supreme Court ruled against this quota and became more violent. So I'm not sure what is going on. It could a colour revolution.
It's definitely possible. I saw that Hasina refused to allow a US military base in Bay of Bengal, so that is a possible trigger if this is US backed.
Eh not really. Its more so that there's cops doing literal slaughter. Now hasina fled not wanting to deal with the fear that it can be coming to bite her.
