What a brilliant article by #ZorainNizamani (PhD Student) - This article is taken off from @etribune website most likely because it is calling all DG ISPR visits to universities a wasteful exercise because the Youth is not fooled by their propaganda.
Here are some brilliant parts from the article by Zorain:
1) Title of the Article : “It is over”
2) For the older men and women in power, it’s over. The young generation isn’t buying any of what you’re trying to sell to them. No matter how many talks and seminars you arrange in schools and colleges, trying to promoting patriotism, it isn’t working. Patriotism comes naturally, when there is equal opportunity, sound infrastructure and efficient mechanisms in place.
3) When you provide your people with basic necessities and ensure people get their rights, you won’t have to go to schools and colleges to tell students that they are supposed to love their country, they already will nonetheless.
4) Young minds, the Gen Z, the alphas, they know exactly what is happening and despite your consistent efforts of trying to sell your views of patriotism to them, they are seeing right through it. Thanks to the internet, thanks to whatever little education we have left, despite your best efforts of keeping the masses as illiterate as possible, you have failed.
5) You have failed to tell people what to think, they are thinking for themselves. They might be a little too scared to speak their minds because they prefer breathing. But they see right through the façade of self-righteousness and virtue that you’ve meticulously put together.
6) You may be able to stay in power by using power but the people could not care less about you. You can’t even step outside your house without security, if that doesn’t speak enough about your popularity amongst people, you need to reevaluate things.
7) The younger lot has had enough and because they have learned that they cannot challenge the powers, they’re leaving the country. I would be too idealistic to think that they would lead a movement against corruption. They’d rather take a silent, quiet exit and not look back because their friends, who spoke up, were silenced.
8) But for the boomers, it’s over. The Gen Z wants faster internet, the ones in power want a stronger firewall. The Gen Z wants cheaper smartphones, the boomers want smartphones to be taxed. The Gen Z wants eased restrictions on freelancing, the boomers want to increase regulations on freelancing. There seems to be no common ground amongst them. That is exactly why the boomers have lost.
9) You can orchestrate all the wars you want; Gen Z will make memes out of it. Censor all the mainstream media, Gen Z will jump to platforms like Rumble, YouTube and Discord to voice their opinions. Boomers, you cannot censor thoughts now. Gone are the days when you could fool the people. No one’s being fooled anymore.
10) The economy handed down to us is worse than your morals.
11) We don’t watch when you talk on TV because most of the times whatever you say is hysterical. We have stand-up comedy for that, why watch mainstream media?
12) Times are changing and the sooner you realise the better. But you don’t care either. Your children are abroad, you’re making millions every single day, you enjoy vast, unchecked power, you eat the finest of foods and drink only the cleanest of water, why would you care? You will when you realise no one’s listening to you. You know why? Gen Z has their headphones on and their Spotify paid for, if the situation becomes unbearable, half of them will have enough resources to leave, the other half will make you listen to their music and not in a good way.
13) Boomers. We’ve had enough. We aren’t buying your narrative anymore. It’s worn out.
This article is a loud slap to the propaganda spread through university visits and the new wonder boy movement attempted to fool the Youth.

It is over..
Our new hero. He is educated and he has the courage to speak the truth. This article is the voice of every Pakistani. The honest people don't need to remove or delete some things. But the truth can't be removed or changed. Allha pak protects Zorain's and his family.
Congratulations to Pakistan's Olympic flag bearer Arshad Nadeem for an absolute brilliant javelin performance winning a gold medal for Pakistan.
His persistence & perseverance has done him & the nation proud. It is the first time any Pakistani has won an individual gold for athletics in the Olympics. He is an inspiration for our younger generation.
إِنَّا ِلِلَّٰهِ وَإِنَّا إِلَيْهِ رَاجِعُونَ
رہنما تحریک انصاف میاں عباد فاروق جو کہ گزشتہ 134 دنوں سے زیر حراست ہیں کا 9 سالہ بیٹا عمار جو اپنے والد، دادی کی گرفتاری، ہر روز اپنے گھر پر چھاپوں، توڑ پھوڑ، خوف و ہراس کی وجہ سے وینٹی لیٹر پر پہنچ چکا تھا، جس کو ریاستی پریشر کی وجہ سے کسی بھی ہسپتال نے بھی مزید رکھنے سے انکار کر دیا تھا وہ 9 سالہ معصوم بچہ بالآخر اس ریاستی دہشت گردی کی تاب نہ لاتے ہوئے آج دنیا سے رخصت ہوگیا ہے۔
I strongly condemn the arbitrary arrest of @ImranRiazKhan by Punjab police tonight. The country is descending into fascism just to make our nation accept an Imported Govt comprising of mega crooks. It is time for everyone, esp the media, to unite & stand up against this fascism.
