this is how my pakistani boyfriend wishes me, his bengali girlfriend, a happy pakistani independence day

i logged onto twitter after hours of posting this, i feel like i need to clarify some things for some people: i didnât think this would blow up. my bf sent me money as joke bc of an Anik Khan tweet (the Bengali Rapper)
some people have been responding calling us âdumbassesâ and taking the genocide lightly. in no way was this meant to make light of the history. my bf and i have frequent dialogues ab the history. he educated himself a lot to truly understand something the was never taught to him-
-Anyone who knows us personally in real life knows this to be true. him sending me money isnât making light of the history, itâs in reference to a tweet by a bengali rapper we both love and itâs our way of always having dialogues about the history behind Bangladesh.
also the fact that other bengalis are getting mad at me for âmaking a joke of our genocideâ... my pakistani bf is ACKNOWLEDGING the genocide on his countryâs INDEPENDENCE. the money was bc of Anik Khan but my bf is literally thinking ab Bangladesh on the day of paki independence
pretty sure everyone saying this is offensive donât realize 1971 is the year bangladesh gained independence. heâs wishing me a âhappy pakistani independenceâ by acknowledging bengali independence. heâs shitting on pakistan right now if you donât get the joke
