The article says they are pushing them off the land and into factory jobs, so that implies to me that they don't want to leave, otherwise they wouldn't have to "push" them.

Why would the author use the word "pushing" if they don't know how this is actually happening? And if they know how it is actually happening, why leave it out of the article?

To stir more controversy and sell more pageviews? It's literally the definition of "clickbait".

In short "push" means to use violence to force the will of otherwise non-compliant "dissenting" citizens.

It's disgusting and a stunning violation of human rights.
