we have reached a point where the actions of the illegitimate pakistani state have led people to view imran khan as a "sensible" voice of reason. the current wave of support for PTI is also reflective of a public reaction against the stateโs nonsensically oppressive measures.

pakistani bluesky as lifeless as the hopes and dreams of the country. :( not sure if this is resignation or complacency, but no one is speaking out about the complete shutdown of the country's internet and mobile services.

Instagram and X are inaccessible right now and no VPNs are working in Pakistan. This blanket ban and censorship is extremely alarming right now particularly when the law and order situation in the country is very volatile.

We're experiencing the most unprecedented internet shutdowns & disruptions in Pakistan particularly with no VPNs working, Instagram not working, Whatsapp media not downloading and the internet being extremely slow. Rumors of an internet shutdown tomorrow in Punjab, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Islamabad.

pakistan: where even paid VPNs are useless, instagram is dead, twitter is a distant memory, and whatsapp media feels like it is on dial-up. the great pakistani firewall; absurdity is the only thing running at full speed. FML.
