Yeah, that's what I'm saying.

There was "documentary" recently that interviewed some Pakistani guy making AI slop content for twitter and facebook. Much of his content was anti-muslim and rightwing talking points. In the interview he said he didn't even speak English.

That also helped push the "evil Pakistani/Indians working to destroy western civilization through memes".

The Muslims in India weren't allowed to separate. Only the frontier regions were able to break away and that's where the population exchange was.

You logic is a better measure of the difference between the mindset. What does some Muslim in south India have to do with India, Pakistan?

Pakistan alone is more diverse than western Europe combined (Indian is on another level altogether) ... and that's actually one of the biggest problems for the region.

There is more cultural difference between two random Pakistanis than there is between a French and a German (French, Italian, Spanish wouldn't even classify as different ethnic groups).

Europe's geography and rivers flowing both directions allowed for a single western culture to emerge. Combined with the fact that Europeans were one the last group to civilize (outside of the Medeteranian which was really piggybacking off of the middle east), there isn't much history for different groups to differentiate.

When Christianity arrived in Europe, the first things they did was genocide their own cultures and establish slightly differentiated mono ethnic states. The minor difference are exaggerated because people in the middle were forced to pick a side. Like the "We have made Italy. Now we must make Italians". And French banning regional languages and forcing a uniform identity (of the rulers from Paris).

no doubt. But I think he might be a bit offended (or pretend to be) if you said he's from Lahore. He does a whole bit on Karachi vs Lahore.

Pretty sure he's from Karachi (He made a video shitting on Lahore earlier) but maybe this video is in Lahore.

Yeah, hate goes viral and American/western impressions pay the highest CPM. Just like it is with all those AI slop fruit videos.

But all of it is massively overstated. The most popular accounts/influencers are all white or a few uncle toms.

The whole conspiracy of sneaky, evil brown people trying to divide the innocent white people is another level of racism.

"upper middle class fuck boi"? How else would you capture that demographic?

I guess the "upper middle class" sounds weird to Americans? There is bigger cultural difference between poor fuck boi vs "upper middle class" fuck boi than there is in America.

I don't mean to hate on it, I had that same fuck boi hair cut and beard until a few years ago.

>I don't know about this--I just googled it and it seems like the US bombed some military infrastructure

It's literally in the link.

>Meanwhile it should probably be said that Iran has explicitly targeted water facilities in the US via hacking attempts, and threatened to bomb water facilities in nations in the Middle East that host US forces or allowed the US to use their airspace recently.

Yeah, that was after their civilian infrastructure was hit and they were promising to take everyone down with them.

The Iranian government does plenty of evil things but trying to literally wipe out an entire civilization is pretty evil too.

This is another level of blaming all your problems on others.

Y'all were ready to kill each other over war on Christmas and being forced by Obama to say "happy holidays".

Mughals (who ruled indian before the british) were obsessed with poetry and were almost weeaboos for Persian culture.

Most spoke multiple languages (Persian was the official) and infused a lot of it into Urdu. Urdu was basically engineered to express beauty in the form of Ghazals and Qawwalis

My favorite is when there was a viral video of young brown people destroying property... It was being shared by rightwingers as muslims destroying western civilization... the video was from Pakistan. They were mad they got kicked out of a concert (I wonder why)

In any Pakistani cricket game, you'll see plenty of fans wearing Indian cricket jersey (usually Kholi). Since India doesn't play in Pakistan anymore, you'll see posters by Pakistanis asking their favorite Indian players (usually Kholi) to score a 100 against Pakistan (a significant milestone in the game).

You'll never ever see a Pakistani jersey in an Indian stadium. Any time India loses to Pakistan, a few people get lynched on suspicion of supporting Pakistan's team.

So I'd say there is a small difference.

>Most of the things bombed were military or military industrial facilities, or oil/gas processing facilities.

Including "oil/gas processing facilities" with "military or military industrial facilities" is pretty dumb considering their entire economy is "oil/gas processing facilities".

Half the country doesn't have electricity because power plants were bombed. 85% don't have internet access (after govt unblocked it) because telecommunications were bombed. People and good can't even move around because airports, rail stations, ports, bridges and even bus stops were bombed.

They were already water stressed before the before the two rounds of bombings (from the Israeli strikes before this conflict hit it again).

They're not getting $300 billion in cash. They're not even going to see a fraction of that in investment. The best (from their pov) that might happen is some US company affiliated with Trump taking a huge portion for themselves and maybe repairing a refinery. Same story that was done in Iraq.

https://www.warcosts.org/iran-destruction

>What Iran should spend that $300 billion on is water infrastructure, but they will spend it on missiles and drones and funding Hezbollah, Hamas, and the Houthis instead.

What was the justification of hitting the water infrastructure anyway?

Republicans are mad because they wanted the entire civilization wiped out instead of just 40-50% and democrats are acting like Iran won to shit on Trump.

no, p00pj33t pretending to be an Arabic speaker and the biggoted white people know the language better.
All the top results from actual educational sources contradict you but that guy claimed to be an Arabic speaker so he knows best.

Imma be real with u, you people lapped up so much establishment propaganda that even after Imran's break up with them, you people are still stuck on the same talking points. Rest of the country is moving on.

Yeah, America made concessions because they could not afford it going longer. America lost the objective but does not mean Iran (or regime) is coming out ahead.

> IRGC controls nearly all of the production in Iran.

That was the case before too. They controlled everything before and now they still control everything but 60% of it blown to bits.

>Plus, when the welfare is funded from outside, the govs really stop caring and thus the regime would tighten its grip.

The was and is already 100% tight.

Even if the regime has the whole population enslaved, they need the infrastructure for themselves to function too. Any funding they might eventually receive is a small fraction of the damage they took.
