I recently wrote a short piece, “ہور چُوپو”, as a reflection on how systems of power can manufacture joy while quietly normalizing suffering, and how, over time, silence itself becomes a habit. It’s not just a story about a village. It’s about collective behavior, learned helplessness, and the subtle ways we rationalize inequality. As a psychologist, I often see how individuals internalize circumstances they didn’t choose. This piece explores that same idea at a societal level. Would really value your thoughts and reflections. #SocialReflection #Psychology #Society #Satire #Writing #InnerPeace
