Re: Some thing to think about...
Anil my bro I agree with you…
On the Indian websites the Admin/Moderators join in when people malign Islam/Pakistan, they support the misinformation and false-propaganda about us and they don’t care about right or wrong, true or false. The only think they are concerned about is ascribing every positive and virtue in the world to India/Hinduism because that’s their identity and every negative and vice under the sun to Pakistan/Islam because that’s the identity of their enemies.
The mods/admins should have some pride and back pro-Pak/Islam stuff because websites like these are media and need to serve their own kind… At the end of the day everybody supports their own kind whether in the right or wrong, political correctness is just a false façade for the world.
This site was set up with a goal to promote discussion and encourage communication. we are not a propoganda site, and we would not like to be like one of the sites you mentioned.
I would rather pull the plug on gupshup before I let it be turned into one of those sites.
now as far as backing proislam or pro pak stuff, thats fine, but it cant be deroagatory.
so fine, mods go and kick out every indian mocking pakistan, or every non muslim mocking islam (or saying stuff that is not flattering but true..e.g. poverty or availability of drinkign water)
kher..but now, what do we do when pakistanis are engaging it. go to pakistan politics, whose side do we take, should we take govt supporters side and then boot out all ppl who are anti musharraf?
what about religion, shia vs sunni, barelvi vs deobandi..its better now but those arguments were nasty until a moratorium was declared
whose side do you want mods and admins to take then? shias, sunnis, barelvis, deobandis..whose?
or would a sensible solution be to let people discuss what they want to as slong as it is being done in a civilized manner and then if it gets out of hand and whether a muslim is making fun of hindu practices or vice versa, that such people are warned and kicked out.
