PTI 'Sufi', misogynistic tweet and Twitterati's admonishment
Social Media rejects misogyny to be used as an arm to offend the female opponents ahead of elections
(WebDesk) - PTI’s stalwart and a close aide of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf chairman Imran Khan, and a much celebrated musician, social activist and a professor Salman Ahmad, last night has flared up the twitter with an unrequired, undue and absolutely abrupt abusive mocking tweet against PMLN female leader, Maryam Nawaz. Sufi, for no reason and without being provoked, uncouthly tried to deride PMLN’s leader Maryam Nawaz. Salman Ahmad is being slammed with a harsh and reproaching reaction over twitter.
Late in the night, he tweeted a misogynistic meme along with few rhetorical tweets against political arch rivals PMLN and Sharifs particularly targeting Maryam Nawaz. The meme was disparaging. It depicted Maryam Nawaz whispering in Khan’s ears, offering to elope with him (Khan) if he spares his father (Nawaz Sharif) teasing her particularly in the context of Sharifs conviction and afterwards announcement of their arrival back to Pakistan post Avenfield Reference Verdict.
