True. But when instructors assign texts, they should make an effort to include different shades of opinion, including minor or controversial ones. Students are happy to engage with range and make up their own minds, rather than having professors trying to convert them.

still don't know how to explain to people that when a course assigns texts like the prof isn't expecting or even hoping that you'll agree with them. it's just that these are the most important texts in social theory from the last century lol.

There are no Pakistanis ‘debating joining Abraham Accords’. There’s a handful of hasbara shills on the Internet pretending there’s a debate – even as the bodies of Gaza’s shredded children are livestreamed to their phones. The only moral response is to spit in their face.

Pakistanis are debating joining #AbrahamAccords. Shady interest groups have sprung up re to scare Pakistanis: politicians will lose vote, terror group recruitment will spike, etc. The best counter-arguments I've seen are:.- We have no conflict with Israel.- If we can have.

The ex-tribal areas were promised Rs. 100b, rights, restitution, and an end to collective punishment – after enduring constant mil ops. When so little has been done, to shrug and revert to the old ways – de-merging FATA-KP, reviving jirgas – is to seriously hurt the federation.

ANP first said not to upend the people’s mandate in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa; Ameer Hoti’s now refused reserved seats. Laudable, democratic stands. Hopefully ANP sticks to them. And hopefully PTI starts sitting down with civilians for a change.

پی ٹی آئی سے لاکھ اختلافات ہوں، مگر مخصوص نشستیں ان کا حق تھیں۔ ہماری جماعت کے فیصلے اپنے فورمز پر ہوں گے، مگر میرا مشورہ ہے کہ ایک ہو یا دو، ایسی نشستوں سے انکار کیا جائے۔ یہی اصولی مؤقف ہے

How to lose an election but still win two-thirds in Pakistan: .Piece today on the reserved seats disaster-within-disaster: how the original SC verdict restored the people's will, and how a 12-member review reversed a bench of 13 for the first time.

If the reserved seats verdict was handed down last year by a 13-member bench, it follows that the review should also be heard by a 13-member bench. But now that a judge has recused himself today, how is a 12-member bench competent to review the original verdict?.
