Thread 🧵

Line by line rebuttal of the objections by @DigitalRightsPK against @PTIofficial proposed #PMDA ordinance.

Let’s do away white this propaganda @fawadchaudhry Let’s start with the first paragraph.

It claims centralisation of regulatory authority is fundamentally draconian.

That claim is untenable. It is world wide best practice.

It then makes a play about law via Ordinance, which is constitutionally correct & standard practice.

Thread 🧵

Why do I feel strongly about Ahmadism and its relationship with Pakistan.

I broke my leg in a skiing trip in Switzerland in 1989.

As I had lost my mother at the age of 7, I was sent to live with a family that happened to be Ahmadists. This was my father’s friend and colleague, who had been an Ahmadist missionary in Mauritius and Belgium.

My father was a single parent businessman and had to constantly travel overseas, so we were stuck there for 3 months, in a beautiful part of the Ardennes.

You say Paksitan has "instigated" violence in Kashmir.

instigate: to initiate (an action/event), incite someone to do something (bad).

This assertion is a roundabout way of justifying India's repression as some sort of reaction. It is an affront to the victims of state violence Pakistan did not instigate the Maharaj of Kashmir Hari Singh to brutally repress the movement for education, economic and employment rights for Kashmir's marginalised muslim majority in 1931.

It's worrying that people are now quoting Pakistani wannabe liberals and phoney activists while demonising the country and its people. Mass murderer Anders Breivik's hatred of Pakistan was fed by the extreme introspective writings of Irfan Hussain, Hina Jilani and Najm Sethi If people are not careful, and these useful idiots get to write the story about Pakistan that everyone else reads, then there will soon come a time that 🇵🇰 and its people are so demonised, that the world will not object when Pakistan's enemies will begin their inevitable attack
