That hat isn’t just for style, it’s a shield and an armour. Like disguising an eye-roll.

Hate mongers are taking over the world - all for a profit. Ideology I can try and make sense of, but peddling racist garbage for power and pelf is just evil.
Pakistanis make up just 2% of the UK population, yet: - 6% of British doctors are Pakistani. 🩺 - 8% of junior doctors and nurses are Pakistani. - 20% of small & medium enterprises (SMEs) are owned by South Asians, many Pakistani-led. 📈 - The British Pakistani community contributes £1+ billion annually to the UK economy. 💷 Proportional to their population, 2% of all sexual violence in the U.K. is carried out by Pakistanis. Jail them. Hang them. Do whatever with them, as long as it is consistently applied to all offenders of all backgrounds. We disown this trash. And we will not be known by them. Any attempt to do so must be called out as racism & Islamophobia.

Over a 100 dead. But forgotten in the heat of Islamabad/Pindi’s power games.
Parachinar is bleeding*—and no one’s talking about it. Despite repeated ceasefire announcements, all have collapsed swiftly. What hope does the future hold for this war-torn region? *When recording, the death toll was 90. Now it’s over 100. #nukta #nuktapakistan #parachinar
