I find your observation interesting, because I made a somewhat similar observation in my early years of joining the forum in an exchange with some Indian members. The observation itself came about because of the atmosphere of the forum and the lively debates with Indians. What sparked it was a separate observation that Indian debaters had this cornucopia of Pakistani sources to reference on topics like Pakistan's governance failures in East Pakistan, the role of Pakistan's military in undermining the growth of the country, the role of Pakistan's military in supporting terrorism, that Pakistan's military was lying about everything you could think of - because you're pretty much guaranteed to find a politician, journalist, social worker or former military officer (several in fact) who will make statements about events and policies that contradict the official military and/or government position and also, many times, contradict all the other aforementioned luminaries. Take Kargil for example - we've got Nawaz Sharif claiming 4000 Pakistani soldiers dead. Even the Indian Army doesn't break 1000 Pakistanis dead in their high end estimates. And then, aside from Nawaz Sharif, we've got various other personalities, military and non-military, whose estimates run the entire range of a couple of hundred to a couple of thousand.
It's like the country has diarrhea mouth or something - we just cant stop blabbing without thinking, verifying our facts and ensuring that national interests are not damaged. Now that last part is a double-edged sword - I'm quite critical of the Indian and US media/intelligentsia because questioning the Establishment line (beyond comfortably defined limits) makes you a target in various ways and dooms you to eventual irrelevance. A good example of 'towing the Establishment line', on foreign policy at least, is the US media and their role in the Iraq war and their continued role in maintaining a reasonable level of public support for Israel -- but I'm diverging ---
Any way, the point I made in that observation years ago was that Pakistan's public discourse is much more diverse and open to criticism of the Establishment, open to criticism of the idea/ideology of Pakistan itself than the discourse in India or the US. A major reason for that is the military itself - if it hadn't carried out military coups, hung elected politicians and presided over the East Pakistan debacle Pakistan might not have had a vibrant 'liberal/leftist' intelligentsia that has no qualms about washing our dirty linen in public, criticism about giving easy ammunition to online Indian debaters be damned. In fact, the military leadership inadvertently screwed itself over twice because the religious extremists that were created and the religious conservatism that the Saudis were allowed to propagate has resulted in this 'Islamist intelligentsia' that also openly criticizes the Pakistani Establishment - the liberals rage about the Establishment perpetuating regressive religious ideology while the Islamists rage about the Establishment pandering to the US and promoting 'Western values', and of course you still have all the hues of gray in between.
And I'll end my own bout of diarrhea mouth with that.
