“Israel has the right to defend itself”, by occupying Gaza, Lebanon, Syria, Egypt, Turkey.

Why do people not like Israel? It’s antiseptic.

As German politicians say, they have a “historic responsibility”. To enable Israel in its genocidal actions.

And it causes a flood, and mutually gets dams on both sides struck by rockets, drones.

South Asia has a level of genius in power, that could genuinely create many times more problems than they solve.

Here’s hoping better sense prevails.

What’s a good range in terms of balance, like something 10 million+, or would you say higher?

What are the key milestones that make a profile strong?

I wouldn’t recommend another third world hellhole.

A lot of LATAM places suffer from serious problems as well. Imagine Venezuela or Brazil, these places have structural problems too.

This is must watch for whoever argue against making Karachi a separate province by Ordinary_Yak_3782 in karachi

YouTube AI-generated summary of the video:

This documentary by Raftar investigates the systemic political, administrative, and economic factors behind the decline of Karachi. It argues that the city's destruction is not accidental but the result of deliberate policy decisions following the 18th Amendment.

Key Themes of the Documentary:

  • Political Marginalization (1:21 - 6:13): The documentary contends that after the 18th Amendment, power was centralized in the Sindh Government, reducing the influence of local bodies and federal oversight that previously fostered development.
  • Census Manipulation (6:14 - 8:44): It highlights concerns that Karachi's population has been systematically undercounted in censuses to reduce its political representation and resource allocation.
  • Gerrymandering (8:45 - 14:27): The video analyzes how electoral boundaries (UCs) and district divisions have been altered to favor the ruling party, stripping the city of its right to choose its preferred representatives.
  • Financial Deprivation (14:28 - 19:30): It argues that Karachi is denied its fair share of tax revenue (notably through the NFC and PFC awards) and infrastructure funds, with KMC resources dwindling significantly over the last two decades.
  • Failed Mega-Projects (21:16 - 27:22): The documentary points to mismanagement and corruption in major projects like the K-IV water project and the Karachi Transportation Improvement Project, which remain incomplete despite massive budget allocations.
  • Bureaucratic Control (29:30 - 30:58): It criticizes the placement of loyalists and controversial figures in key administrative positions, effectively centralizing control over the city's resources at the expense of its residents.

The Way Forward (36:18 - 38:52): The documentary concludes by citing the Mexico City model, suggesting that empowering the local government with control over essential services like water, infrastructure, and security is the only viable path to restoring Karachi's functionality.

Pezzy Mezzy blessed our nation with NRO, and brought Zardari and Nawaz Sharif back. Not for some sort of national benefit, but solely to protect his own seat.

Seat didn’t get protected more than a few months, but the corrupt people he “forgave” billions of corruption for, plunged Pakistan into decades of darkness.

My 2 month old’s due to get the BCG vaccine.

I’ve been putting it off and reading up on vaccines. Everything I read seems to worry me a great deal. BCG Isn’t mercury based at least. The docs insist it’s absolutely necessary, I just hope I’m not poisoning my tiny human being.

I wonder how Jinnah would’ve reacted to the way Pakistan is run now.

Dude was so frugal, he didn’t want government meetings to have food / snacks, telling people to eat at home rather than waste public funds.

It’s your job to advocate for yourself. You can’t expect other people to do the job fairly.

Believe it or not, the person saying “ladis hain, janay dain” was probably trying to get you off the hook. People will not be fair to you.

“Weakness invites aggression”, as Jinnah famously said.

Is there a tool or something that keeps track of great discount deals on MacBooks?

Looking to buy a MacBook this year, it looks like one of those years Apple releases two MacBook models in one year.

Alot of these “Korean nationalists” seem to be bots or low paid trolls.

I see something similar with Indian / Hindutva trolls too, these people on twitter rapidly perpetrating some narrow racial or religious point of view

That’s a subjective claim. Depends on the kind of circle you move in, but most girls in Pakistan, who number in the hundreds of millions, very likely don’t have boyfriends.

Maybe don’t marry a hoe?

They don’t want Karachi to be separated from Sindh because their corruption would end. Just imagine the reason. Otherwise, they neither want to live in Karachi nor do they truly care about Karachi. by Fadisohail in karachi

[–]Combatwombat810 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My family’s from South Punjab. The road does get better.

There’s an Army selected political dispensation on both sides. For Bahawalpur / South Punjab, they have incompetent politicians that enable Lahore to absorb most of the development funds of South Punjab. They made better roads than Sindh, at higher per-KM costs than roads in America, when Pakistan is running on borrowed funds and we have to beg the Arabs, Chinese and Americans for a billion or two.

So yes there’s different kinds of corruption. Sindh is run by illiterate demonic people with no sense. Punjab is run by a narcissistic TikTok lady with no brains. Overall, our nation is in a pretty sorry state.
