I fear for our collective amnesia too 😥in broader picture some wings will be clipped while others pasted but the artist will remain the same. No structural shift

[Nida Kirmani @NidaKirmani]

My favourite thing is PTI supporters crying about how the call for the PM to step down is 'anti-democratic'. I guess collective amnesia really is a thing.

[Asad Umar @Asad_Umar]

One thing is clear from what has been seen of the opposition march so far.... Their vision of Pakistan is one where women have no place in the public space.

Those of us sitting on the fence are more scared of the ugly truth that we might find, if and when such a thing happens. Sometimes we are just not ready for the truth 😓

[Sherry 🍁 @CherieDamour_]

Supposedly neutrals are freaking out like if the march succeeds Molana is going to be the PM. Calm your tits molana never could be the PM. Molana is a democratic party just like any other. either ban religious parties from participating in elections, or accept them as opposition

You were a rock
And I, a sculptor.
Now that I am done
You are God

کبھی کبھی پنجروں میں رہنے والے پرندے کھلے آسمان پر طنز کرتے ہیں- اے آسمان کیوں اپنا وقت برباد کرتا ہے؟ ہم اپنے پنجروں میں محفوظ ہیں اور تیرے سینے میں تو ٹوٹتے خوابوں کی کئی کہانیاں دفن ہیں- جا اپنی وسعتوں کا جادو کہیں اور چلا- ۱/۲

We are a generation of women activists who are challenging the system. We are challenging the status quo. We are challenging gender discrimination, and we are here to speak out for all of those sisters—and brothers—who need a voice.

Recent research suggests that nonviolent civil resistance is far more successful in creating broad-based change than violent campaigns https://t.co/PPTuaEKCx0
