Khan and the Macro Social Virus

-

 


A virus can devastate and paralyze the entire society, and during the past few years, we all have witnessed the wrath it can incur. Virology is the study of viruses, and we can classify them into different categories. The virus which infects the human immune system is generally known as a “microscopic virus”. Another type of virus that affects the nonliving segment of our ecosystem is called “macro virus”. Such viruses infect a computer system and corrupt software. Since they are written in the same language as the application, the system often fails to identify them.

Further classification of viruses will reveal that they can be verbal, emotional, mental, and they can be classified into macro-social viruses. Pakistani society had always been infected, however, the current leadership has annihilated the idea of co-existence in the country. According to our youth, if you do not agree with their beliefs, and point of view you are an enemy of the state, who should be exiled or punished to extinction. The famous rhetoric of Patwaris, which Imran Khan himself started against the voters of an opposing party was the first jab to the chin.

Democracies only flourish when different ideologies co-exist accepting each other, rather than trying to put an end to each other. Foul language and character assassination out of the court have become a matter of entertainment for the general public. People seem to be happy calling their opponents names, hurling allegations, and making indecent Twitter trends. The premier is often seeing ridiculing the opposition leaders destroying the moral thread of the society without any shame, that too on national television.

Youth of the country is becoming aggressive towards difference of opinion. Religious extremism has already been lynching bodies and cutting off heads. People have learned the art of persecution through media trials. Guilty and criminals should be charged and tried by the criminal justice system, and innocent until proven guilty should still be applicable. The amount of hatred we are injecting into young innocent minds will eventually explode like weapons of mass destruction. Continuation of such tyranny will ensure the elimination of the society, and only a clan of like-minded will survive.

The Political Genius – Asif Ali Zardari

-
Image
Asif Ali Zardari the Mard-e-Hurr was incarcerated in 1996 for the first time. A day before President Farooq Leghari dismissed Benazir Bhutto's government on corruption charges, Asif Zardari was arrested and sent to prison. Contrary to the popular belief regarding his corruption and conduct as a public office holder, the justice system in the country could not prosecute him successfully. Nevertheless, by the time he came out in 2004, he had already become an icon of resistance for political workers in the country. Zardari's character has been continuously attacked and the allegations leveled against him were unspeakable. On one hand, he was continuously under fire from his opposition, be it civil or military, yet he continued with sheer commitment towards his party’s goal. Without discussing the merits and demerits of the charges against him, one can not deny the fact that he is the most powerful negotiator and the most refined politician in the country. Zardari’s brilliance h...

As members of the global community, we learned many lessons, and trading off your freedom for the greater good is perhaps the most important one. However, the f...

WHY THARPARKAR? MUCH MORE THAN A DESERT

-

It's hard to describe the feeling of approaching a desert to someone who has never seen one before. You can describe what you see; a fertile landscape, a greenish of land and a slow appearance of trees and shrubs and signs of life. Before, all of a sudden, the dunes with green oasis appear. A sea of golden greenish mix waves that appears to have no beginning and no end cut by road. You can show pictures and write words but portraying that feeling is harder. Perhaps it's one of those things, like seeing the ocean for the first time that you need to experience for yourself. I've approached to visit many countries but never knew that Tharparkar in my own country would all be turned powerful and desolate and imposing. Yet still, the Tharparkar felt different. Perhaps it was the knowledge and tales from our decenters about the Marvi and Mithi who call the Tharparkar home of MITHAAS and respect. The closer it got ...
