PTI misinformation debunked by French media

FOOL OF THE NIGHT is back making a fool of himself.

After the country was stormed by violent protesters across cities after the arrest of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan, misinformation was rampant on social media platforms.

In the wake of riots and vandalism in Pakistan, which continued for a couple of days since May 9, an image and two videos were being continuously shared to show the situation unfolding amid the chaos and the government's crackdown on the political protesters.

A photo, which was proven to be an Artificial Intelligence-generated image, showed a woman confronting the police tackling rioters. Among one of the two videos, droves of people are seen confronting police, while in another, a crowd is seen carrying coffins, which circulated with claims that the bodies were those of PTI protesters who were killed during the countrywide demonstrations.

A French news channel France 24, however, noted some obvious giveaways about the image and videos not being real or from Pakistan.

In its probe to prove the origins of the image and videos, the media outlet's journalist Vedika Bahl — who hosts a news segment Truth or Fake — took a closer look at the misinformation being circulated by workers and supporters of the Khan-led party.

When explaining the image, the journalist shared that it was being circulated across Twitter as a symbol of resistance against the country's riot police, while one tweet mentioned: "This is real FEMINISM."

The reach of the image was also gauged through the fact that it was retweeted by PTI's official Twitter account and had garnered over 231,000 views on the microblogging website.

The journalist confirmed that the image was generated through AI and traced it to its creator, a Twitter user named Abdullah Saad. She mentioned how AI always has trouble drawing hands, which also gave away how it wasn't a real image. She also pointed out that the riot police shown in the image was nothing like the real cops who were tackling protesters on the streets with their faces, helmets and uniforms looking unreal.

The creator of the image said he was inspired by one of the female protestors in the demonstrations last week who confronted the police and took off her scarf as a symbol of defiance.

Bahl went on to show two different videos which were being claimed to show PTI protesters' resistance across TikTok, Twitter and other social media platforms. However, one of the videos — claimed as PTI supporters marching towards the police — was actually of 1,000 Honduran migrants moving towards the US border seeking US president's attention at the issues of asylum seekers.

Meanwhile, the other video was from a recent shooting incident in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa's Parachinar where seven people were gunned down in a government school's staffroom.


Are you a retard ? Sorry I meant noonie ?
 
Is that you in the display photo? You look way dumber than I even imagined. Would love for you to come in front of me of so I can practise my left hook
 
France24 is the State Broadcaster for France….so that should give you a clue.

And that also clearly highlights how the west approves of everything happening in Pakistan right now.
Oh regarding the west part that much we can all agree on. But I would have thought they would have been a little bit discrete in their reporting.

Look at BBC Urdu, nothing earth shattering, but just from the sides like a pappi khutni saying “oh Ho yeh dheko kya Ho raha hai”.

The west is the enemy of Pakistan. Period. And grovelling to them in any shape or form is pointless. If I’m Imean Khan, I’d double down on my rhetoric against the western imperialist BC and call them out for the warmongering scum they are. The vast majority of Pakistanis agree with that sentiment anyway and he would indirectly be showcasing GHQ and PDM as the western bootlicking bastards they are.

That being said, I’ll maintain my stance that IK is arrogant and doesn’t learn from his mistakes. His social media team are a complete joke….here’s a perfect example.


When IK Twitter published that photo, did his social media team reach out to Kursed and ask for his permission?

If they had actually given him credit for it, this all would have been averted since the creator clearly mentioned this was an AI generated image….the photo is almost a week old.

PTI needs to practice what they preach.

Chacha Fool, is this body guard of Dogfather Nawaz not so Sharif related to you?

So it actually took an independent news to check if the this midjourney image was actually made by AI?

Ya Allah, abhi sai 5th gen war har gaye, In dufferon ko thori si aqal deta, pura mulk denay kay bajaye
 
Its rather amusing to see how dumb these duffers patwaris are. No wonder people ridicule PMLN supporters and their leaders all the time. Seriously I have noticed this trend that people with low intellectual capabilities generally support PMLN where as better educated class tilts towards PTI. This is precisely why, youth backs PTI big time.
