lose of rule over karachi?
That is political, whether its the MQM, ANP, PPP, JI..
these parties throughout their time have played the race card to gain votes.
When you are playing the race card, you are dividing the nation..
the result is posters like the gentlemen above.
You think they are alone in being alone in Painting the ANP as representative of all Pashtuns??
The MQM thinks all urdu-speakers represent it.. which wasnt the case.. the PPP focused on the Sindh votebank but it ended up attracted all sorts.
You think there arent vile vermin that give similar racial views to the sort I let these two have a taste of?
There are Urdu-speakers who would use terms much more insulting than this on threads Ive dealt with.
There are PUnjabis that speak terms for Baloch.
Question is, do you just watch?
Do we let these people represent Pakistan on forums?
"Oh we are Pakistanis and we made Pakistan but its founder was a total douchebag because he was born outside Pakistan".
I dont agree with you on martial law as the solution, because greater experience will show that despite these P.i.gs... there is evidence in Karachi.. the city that literally represents Pakistan.. that people from all backgrounds are and do consider themselves one body.
There is also evidence that there are deep chasms, and almost all are vested interests playing puppets and sentiments like the posters here.
But what of each do you see more?
Do you see Pathan kids avoiding urdu-speaking kids in class? do you see Punjabis Avoiding Sindhis?
Nope, they study and play together..
Do you see this in the offices? perhaps in the government offices.. not in the private establishments where actual rule is of the people and not of vested interests.
But if such views are not opposed, called out.. even exposed.. then these very bigots will become the Mir jafars for Pakistan.
What happens with such views? when you let them be and "sit quietly" like the silent majority so to speak?
They come at you and bite you ..
Does it not insult these members that INDIANS are calling out terms like Mohajir sentiment and Pashtun Nationalism when it is not even their business nor expertise to talk about these issues???
Apparently not..
not accepting bigoty, not accepting that you are being impartial.. is better.. than admitting a faulted PoV for its below honor or ego.
And a faulted PoV does not mean you go out and kiss MQM behind or say that urdu-speakers or punjabis or whosover is the greatest nation in the world.. after all.. the levels of racism in urdu-speaking communities is beyond comprehensible..
its accepting that we have all been victims of ethnically motivated politics which is the actual evil.
That you and I.. and all Pakistanis are at fault for accepting those.
That is what makes the great posters here, the TT's.. and heck me.
This is the message I bring to all these stupid racial rants.
And yes, I will defend my ancestry...
But I damn more sensible to know to respect yours.. and your contribution.. and not end up blaming you as the cause for all evils...be you a Pathan, Punjabi, Baloch or whatever that collectively we hope can make something called Pakistanis.
