"The owner of the cable car company in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province was later arrested by police on multiple charges including negligence and endangering valuable lives."

... Are some some lives that aren't valuable?

[–] Astroturfed@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago (2 children)

From my knowledge of Pakistan, women or anyone not ethnically Pakistani. They would not be valuable lives.

WOW, Your Ignorance and Discrimination amazes me. I myself am a Pakistani, and I have no love for it. But what you say is wrong. You're saying No Woman's life is valued in Pakistan? How can that even be possible? and it's a bad place for women to be, there are definitely better places. It, however, is not as Black and White as your comment makes it out to be. It's not like some barbarian country where Woman are raped, and Killed everyday, on the streets or something. I would also request you to educate yourself that Pakistani is not an ethnicity, it's a nationality. Sindhi, Punjabi, Pashtun, and Baloch are some of the ethnicities found in Pakistan. So, you read one Negative News Headline, you've just made up your mind that Pakistan is full of savages and barbarians. Dear, sir, Please educate yourself, and don't be so discriminationatory.

I have not met one person here that was Xenophobic towards foreigners. You seem to be Xenophobic, dude. You have this discriminationatory and a wrong image of a country and you don't want to admit that you're wrong. I also want to admit that I have no love for Pakistan, I hate Pakistan, because I know it's rulers' evil doings and corruption. You seem to think that every common person living in Pakistan is a Barbarian, and hates women. Please, educate yourself. Why the FUCK would I be upset? Fuck Pakistan, there I said it. I care not one bit for Pakistan as a country. I just don't want people on Lemmy to have a negative image of a country without knowing anything about it.

So, you admit it's horrible and are mad because other people know that? Weird opinion.

[–] SiyahGuraag@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

You're a hateful person, Sir. Please seek help. No one hates women here. The average Pakistani, whether or not Literate, doesn't hate women and values their lives. Islam has nothing to do with this. I know in what aspects it is horrible. You think we're savages, don't you? You're a hateful person, and it is hurting my brain to know that people like you exist. Funny how you think we're Xenophobic, yet you think we're savages. WOW, Seek Help and Education.

Maybe it's just poor wording that implies life in general is valuable?
