I love how this sub upvotes racist and bigoted comments if they have a certain flair.

For me a bad part is how they messed up Lahore's pre-partition demographics. Lahore used to have a an about even split of Hindus + Sikhs and Muslims. In fact, most of the ruling elite in Lahore was predominantly Hindu. The series painted Lahore as filled to the brim with Nawaabs(Lahore didn't have any of its own and there were very few of those in Punjab as a whole). As for the question of Pakistan, I can understand why it was done, but to say in the mid-1940's it wasn't relevant enough is quite ignorant.

Hi, it's been 8 years since I made this comment. I hardly even remember making this comment. I am Shia BTW and I would agree with what you said. My comment was intended to be a more balanced approach rather than a one sided argument.

Most of the people here would defend just about anything since they consider any question on Indian being hosts as being a slight to the Indian pride. Also the reasonable people dont usually even make it to posts like these since there is little to add.

You sounded condescending. I can get what you meant but I think you came off as weird.

Wait the fuck up, is Pathaan name controversial too? Isn't that an ethnicity, all Khans including KR"Khan" are supposed to be Pathaans.

Pakistanis online are outnumbered 10:1 by Indians so a lot of our stuff gets buried in between. But we are here.

That's what I don't get: Amit Shah constantly has sectarian tint to everything he says and they think Rasheed has somehow gone way past the norm(which he honestly has atleast in Pakistani standards)

Muhammad Yousaf converted. Danish Kaneiria was born Danish Kaneiria. Players don't change their names but 90% of minorities have Urdu first names. Also should Rizwan talk about an incident that happened two days ago or keep apologizing for stuff from two decades ago.

He is up for re-election in 2022

I don't live in the US so don't want to be labeled a Russian troll but I just wanted to know, how do you guys feel about Biden underperforming massively(-7-8%) drop from the polls. Is that part of any contingency. Once again I am a Bernie supporter and was just curious.

Separated by our politics joined by Bernie!

I'm from Pakistan and even our results don't get 'held up'

Lol.

Which military regime? Who is he killing?

She said just because 'some Muslims did something(9/11) does not mean" others have to pay for it. It sounds a lot better with the context doesn't it, Mr Twat.

35000 Pakistanis have been killed since 2001 in terrorist attacks let's not compare who suffers the most you islamophobic piece of shit.

Rigging is common as the system is manual and ballot have to be cast by hand into a box that is counted at the end by election officials. These officials happen to be government employees with a vested interest in the set up of a particular party as their prospective employers. The system has massive gaps which leads to speculation it might be vulnerable.

Given that, from first hand experience being a winning candidate myself, I can say without any hesitation that this was probably one of the cleanest polls in our history.

Actually the way I believe it to be is that Pakistan has effectively got two governments running the state. The politicians and the military. The motives of the two have never ever aligned except for the case of Kashmir’s because believe it or not it still gets votes and funding. Terrorism is problematic. No one who has never lived in Pakistan knows how terrible the period between 2007-2010 was. A blast each day was the norm. Now you may believe that all this was an inside thing but there comes a point where it makes no sense to use that rationale. The terrorists hit the politicians and the military in equal measure. I can not argue much on the topic of the Mumbai Attacks but I do know that the attackers were Pakistani even if they were not backed by Pakistan. Mumbai was a terrible thing but it’s not like stuff of equal or even higher magnitude wasn’t happening in Pakistan as well. So in my opinion blaming Pakistan for terrorism is a bit unfair. Sure they may be those that have a soft corner for the Taliban and even though it is terrible idea, Taliban are something that have been deeply linked to Pakistan military since the Afghan War days. So when the current Afghan leaders give Pakistan the cold shoulder a lot of the old-guard remembers fondly the days of cooperation between the ‘two Muslim brothers’ even when religion here is used in a social sense more than a religious one.

She is an actress. She has actually done a bit more with her life than getting smashed by random 10” vag-smashers.

Hey dude respectfully I am the Pakistani here and only I get to make retarded jokes about Indians.

Nice reference, foreskin_jizz_bomb.
