It’s a black day for #SriLanka not because of its past but because of its present.

We have a gov. led by an unempathetic, fascist ruler who is putting up a 200mn show to satisfy a wet dream, while medicines have run out, children are starving, and millions are suffering.
When people peacefully show dissent to the absurdity of this ‘celebration’, they are mercilessly teargassed and beaten by the police.

This is why the Janatha #Aragalaya must continue. ✊🏽

Earlier the police prevented two youths from peacefully protesting.

‘Where is freedom or independence’ the youths ask!

Twitter with all its sponsored trolls and fake accs, was messy.

But during #diganariots #EasterAttacks, covid and #SriLankaProtests, the platform’s role in realtime news dissemination was incomparable. We saw how often our media was informed by citizens.
#RIPTwitter #SriLanka
For example, Lankan journalists/citizens were able to report and provide visual content of instances of #PoliceBrutalityLK and crackdown by the Army, during the #Aragalaya

This is mostly true for the region as a whole. From #Myanmarcoup to #IranProtests2022
Not to mention so many other communities here ranging from tech to gaming to academic to corporates etc etc.

It’s unimaginable how a completely clueless manchild #spacekaren is able to fuck things up this badly for millions of people around the world, just because he has money.
