Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif’s military designed government has changed how poverty is measured and set a new threshold at Rs 8,483 per person per month, meaning anyone above that figure is no longer counted as poor. It did this to make poverty look more containable on paper, using a technical revision to shrink visible hardship into a cleaner statistic that can be sold as administrative order or policy progress. In plain terms, the state has moved the line so it can manage the optics of poverty more easily than the reality of it.

Even with this new threshold roughly 70 million Pakistanis fall on the cusp of poverty, and if we go with the World Bank number, it’s at 107 million people. Appalling.

That is true. They treat it as if it's a cultural war and reduce the other side to just being a barbaric medieval tribe. We need to actually appreciate every culture as it is.

Every time anyone from Saudi or the Gulf posts their traditional attire/culture they get thousands of attacks. If it’s Southern Saudi dress it’s “actually Yemeni.” If it’s Northern it’s Levantine. If it’s Western it’s Egyptian. If it’s Eastern it’s Persian.

The ultimate conclusion is that Gulf Arabs are apparently not allowed to claim any culture or history if there is any similarity with anyone. As if shared traditions between neighboring societies is some rare phenomenon.

What’s interesting is that this standard applies nowhere else. Tea originated in China yet nobody argues it isn’t part of Indian culture. No one argues coffee is not part of Italian culture.

The fez is shared across multiple countries and nobody insists it can only belong to one of them. The kaftan exists from Morocco to Central Asia in countless local forms and nobody treats that as a problem.

But when it comes to the Gulf, every similarity is evidence that the culture belongs exclusively to someone else.

The underlying assumption is this: Gulf Arabs are only allowed the image of the poor Bedouin wandering the desert. There is no shame in that image, but nobody has the right to reduce an entire people to a single archetype.

Anything sophisticated, diverse, artistic or historically rich must have been borrowed from somebody else. The possibility that Gulf Arabs developed rich traditions of their own, shaped the cultures around them, or may even be the source of some shared regional traditions is treated as unthinkable.

Not really women dont live life on easy mode. We always like to treat them as disposable and a burden in fact they're actually human beings with emotional and financial needs. Instead we should be treating them with care and understand their problems.

This is a lady who came from nothing & all of sudden she’s living a luxurious life.

Her finances changed & it's all because of MARRIAGE.

She had no tangible skills, she didn't sweat it out, she made no investments, no capital, no sleepless nights.

Heck! she isn't even a 9 to my standards.

But she became a billionaire overnight because she has a hole between her legs & a man like myself wanted to own that hole.

Women live life on easy mode.

Rape with objects. Gang rape. Rape by trained dogs. Targeted genital shooting. Filmed. Photographed. Archived by the perpetrators. Across 12 named Israel detention sites.

The UN calls it a pattern. B’Tselem calls it a network of torture camps. Both are correct.

🇵🇰 Pakistan – PSX Heavyweights

Oil & Gas Development Co (OGDC) — $4.15 Billion
United Bank Limited (UBL) — $3.69 Billion
Engro Holdings (ENGROH) — ∼$1.1 Billion @ Rs 315.9B market cap
Engro Corporation (ENGRO) — ∼$935 Million @ Rs 260.5B
The Hub Power Company (HUBC) — ∼$1.0 Billion @ Rs 279.7B
Context check:
🇰🇷 Samsung alone = $1.5T > entire PSX market cap of ~$70B. Even India’s Reliance at $186.7B is 40x+ bigger than OGDC.

Pakistan’s top 5 are dominated by banks + energy — zero global tech/consumer brands... yet.

So here’s the question for you:

Pakistan dominates ___?

If we had to build one $100B+ global giant by 2035, which sector should it be? Banking? Agri-tech? Textiles? Fintech? Energy?

Drop your pick + why 👇🇵🇰

It's a myth Germans didn't know the Holocaust was happening. They may have not known the details, but they knew Jews were being sent to their death

Likewise, decades from now you'll hear people say that Israelis "didn't know" about the genocide in Gaza. That is also a lie
