To revolt is a natural tendency of life. Even a worm turns against the foot that crushes it. In general, the vitality and relative dignity of an animal can be measured by the intensity of its instinct to revolt.

Hello, world.

The aim of the blog is to resist state oppression in Pakistan and to disseminate critical information. The Critique Aggregator is maintained by concerned activists, academics, some of them of Pakistani origin, some non-Pakistani but concerned with the situation in Pakistan, living wherever they are.

It is a viral movement. We want to publish fearless stories.
Individual opinions. Cutting-edge reports. Protest tactics. We are
trying to become the faceless multitude. The flash protest. The
autonomous movement of resistant strategies.

If you send something to us for publication and it has your REAL
name on it, we will change the name. So it is better if you use a
consistent nom de guerre / pen name for yourself. It is even better if
this name is symbolic or figurative so that there is no accidental resemblance with any real person. We can give due credit to your nom de guerre.

This blog will be maintained by volunteers and many people already
know the password. So if one or two persons are removed or hunted
down by the agencies, it will not be silenced. It is a work of a multitude and all of them use the same username and password.

Yours in solidarity.
