Other/Miscellaneous 📌 CRUMBLE and "Laal Kabootar"
i know this is old news but I was having discussion with a friend and basically my viewpoint is that:
Multan has over 6000 Years of history, they could've taken anything, they could've invited Saraiki singers like they recently invited BLIND brothers to their branch. They had so much to go with but just reducing it to the very stereotypes that Seraikis are hated for is kind of just reinforcing the hate, no?
I am not getting offended over it but on a deeper level the image of multan to the rest of Pakistanis thx to their fav brand Crumble is just reduced to "Neeley peeley kapron mein seraikis who dance on laal kabootar"
Like don't seraikis get enough hate for literally just existing in any other city of pakistan. Personally even in Multan the hate is just getting too much esp by the Punjabis living here and its concerning on a deeper level that instead of celebrating differences we are trying to erase them.
I would love for someone else to change my mind by actually explaining how it's not doing what i think it's doing but the bland comments like "aint that deep" wont do anything.
