The UN predicts that we are currently undergoing the biggest living cost crisis in the 21st century. No economy seems to be able to escape the debt crisis, rising unemployment and inflation since the pandemic.
Revolt is different from protest. To protest is to play according to the rules set out in the constitution. It is to organise for a specific cause through respectable platforms of dissent. The youth who protest in this manner tend to be institutionalised. They are students, young workers, NGO volunteers, bloggers, party leaders and members or followers of popular hashtag movements.
Society reaches a stage of complete instability and of being a direct threat to democracy when the youth is mobilised to the point of revolt. The status quo knows perfectly well that once such a revolt gets infused with conscientisation it can potentially lead to their overthrow – a revolution. The pandemic might have destroyed hundreds and thousands of livelihoods across the world but the other story of the pandemic is that it created more billionaires and more inequalities. The gap between the rich and the poor became larger. The possibilities of revolt against capitalism severely depreciated.
