Filmmaker and advisor Mostofa Sarwar Farooki took to Facebook on Thursday to express his firm stance against misogyny. In his post, he questioned whether anyone had cared about the gender, attire, or political affiliation of their fellow protestors when fighting against Hasina’s oppressive regime in July. He pointed out that Bangladesh had opposed the stigmatization of beards, caps, and burqas in the past and should do the same now. His message was clear: “A straight ‘NO’ to all forms of misogyny—never before, not now, not in the future.” He ended his post with a thought-provoking question about who truly benefits from the political manipulation of power.
