   I haven't read all sides of the story, but it is a bit uneasy to see posts and memes glorifying or sarcastically applauding vigilante "justice".

   Capitalism may be a new thing, but **corruption** and class divide has always existed, for centuries, and the fight against it is definitely real. Change through collective actions, protests, NGOs may be slow, but surely it has gotten us to where we are now, hasn't it?

     @ashwinvis honestly? No, a diversity of tactics got us to where we are now, and that included the very real threat of violence and revolution, even if the ultimate process was handled 'peacefully' through reforms.
