Before diving into this post, I want to make it clear that my intention is not to harm anyone’s political opinions or perspectives. This blog represents my analysis of two widely available pieces of content on the internet. If my words inadvertently offend any of your opinions, I apologize in advance. Additionally, the content discussed here belongs to the original creators, and I do not claim any credit for the videos. The link provided below contributes to the original content on the internet. Thank you for understanding!
This morning, I found myself in that familiar state of boredom. You know the one—when you’ve scrolled through social media, checked your emails, and still feel like there’s something missing. So, I decided to dive into a few episodes of Sisnupani Deusi that popped up on my YouTube recommendation feed. Now, for those who aren’t familiar, Sisnupani Deusi is an annual political comedy satire show. It features some of Nepal’s most renowned comedians taking playful jabs at top political leaders and current national and international issues. It’s like a spicy curry of humor, wit, and social commentary—a true celebration of freedom of speech.
Before we proceed, let me give you a heads-up: I won’t spoil the fun by revealing too much about the content. Instead, I invite you to watch two specific episodes—one during KP Sharma Oli’s prime ministership and the other when Pushpa Kamal Dahal (Prachanda) held the position. Also, I recommend you to watch both the episodes in the native YouTube app through the links below because the fun of this post lies in the comment section 😉
Now, here’s the interesting part: As I watched both episodes, I found myself nodding in agreement with the issues raised. Like many Nepalese, I don’t pledge allegiance to any particular political party. But let’s leave that aside for now. What truly caught my attention was the comment section. Oh, the comment section—the digital arena where opinions collide like bumper cars at a carnival. People had strong reactions to how the two prime ministers responded to the show.
KP Sharma Oli, it seems, didn’t crack a smile. The public didn’t take kindly to that. They accused him of being out of touch with the show’s humor and its sharp critique of our world. Meanwhile, Prachanda’s laughter sparked a different kind of outrage. Some felt he was too casual about the serious issues portrayed. As the audience erupted in laughter (the show’s intended effect), I realized something profound: No matter how these leaders acted, they faced criticism. It’s like a universal truth—whether you’re a politician, a celebrity, or just a regular person, someone out there will find fault with your every move.
And that got me thinking about human psychology. We’re all unique, subjective beings. What’s funny to one person might be offensive to another. Laughter and disgust coexist in this chaotic dance of perspectives. So, next time you’re in the spotlight, remember this: No matter how you act, someone will have something to say. Maybe our leaders aren’t known for groundbreaking contributions, but perhaps that’s just my subjective reality. Who knows?
Feel free to share your thoughts in the comments below. And hey, if you haven’t watched those episodes yet, give them a go—they’re quite the rollercoaster ride!
