well it was doomed to fail from the start, not to mention the military having repeated coups there

quickbadger-36 OP

I don't think they would see it as inferior

grandquiver-69

swiftorchid-87

quickbadger-36 OP

I see

swiftorchid-87

and pakistan's native language are Punjabi, sindhi, Balochi and many others

quickbadger-36 OP

Besides language,have we lost other cultural things?

grandquiver-69

I don't think it was to be related to west asia, it was created and evolved over centuries and came from Hindustani

swiftorchid-87

depends on different culture

grandquiver-69

yep, tbh the whole language situation there is pretty interesting

swiftorchid-87

maybe but its script is relate with persian

swiftorchid-87

and they forced urdu on the whole country and other languages were seen as inferior

grandquiver-69

possibly, can't think of what exactly tho

quickbadger-36 OP

I see

grandquiver-69

I think it's a mix of persian, turkic (central asia), arabic and hindi/ sanskrit

swiftorchid-87

swiftorchid-87

quickbadger-36 OP

swiftorchid-87

i mean this was always a con of globalisation

quickbadger-36 OP

Although things on stuffs like sezuality are still not allowed here though

swiftorchid-87

quickbadger-36 OP

My complain is that why are we are ones getting absorbed. And theirs becomes the normal

quickbadger-36 OP

Yope. That is true

swiftorchid-87

colonisation ig

quickbadger-36 OP

It still has it effects right?

quickbadger-36 OP

It's still working in a way if you ask me

swiftorchid-87

ahh but big brands inspire(steal) clothing design from other cultures and sell it with big prices in west

swiftorchid-87

so its def not bout western clothes being better

swiftorchid-87

colonisation is the only thing that comes to mind

quickbadger-36 OP

Hmm

swiftorchid-87

and fact that british first built industries and mass produced clothes and they were a lot cheaper

swiftorchid-87

so that must have affected too

swiftorchid-87

100%%

quickbadger-36 OP

Yeah.

quickbadger-36 OP

Global influence is still a thing

quickbadger-36 OP

And most people don't even like where they came from

quickbadger-36 OP

Like it to some people they would be flying off their country

quickbadger-36 OP

But if we all go into another man's land

grandquiver-69

and now those big brands shoved all their factories to other countries

quickbadger-36 OP

Who would better our nation

swiftorchid-87

thats more of a individual prefrence imo..like in some countries are way too conservative so they like to be in a more open country
