In the aftermath of the Pahalgam massacre, where 26 individuals lost their lives at the hands of Pakistan-backed terrorists, the global community witnessed the typical cycle of events – India’s condemnation, Pakistan’s denial, and the West’s diplomatic language. However, a noteworthy shift occurred this time around. The most poignant reactions did not originate from New Delhi or Washington; instead, they surfaced from ordinary Pakistanis who chose not to defend their government but to lampoon it. Through various social media platforms, they opted not to vent their anger towards India but rather directed their sarcasm towards their own country’s issues such as power outages, fuel scarcities, and economic turmoil.
