@[email protected] banned me from [email protected] (permanently!) and removed my comment from the post, because I dared to note that there are protests in Iran and shared a link to a crimethinc article with voices from within Iran. They call it “imperialist propaganda” if leftist voices from within Iran are distributed.
My comment:
I get it that the western media narrative is incredibly one-sided, focused on ideological bogeymen and focused on getting the monarch back in power. But I’d like to point out that there is in fact quite massive repression going on against the protestors. Leftist orgs in Iran need international solidarity now.
Their “reasoning”:
reason: Ignoring the post to spam imperialist propaganda
I don’t think that person can be reasoned with if they call crimethinc imperialist propaganda, so I’m not getting my hopes up for them lifting the ban.
I also think that they might be a bit butthurt, because I called out their zionistic worldview (i.e.: that judaism equates zionism) a few days ago.
SMH. That was with regards to the posts subject. Not Iran.
Look if you support the Iranian people, we are 100% in agreement. If you reject them because a hypocritical loudmouthed infantile head of state cheered them on because he thinks he might benefit. Then we’ll never agree and should just disengage. Fuck the Sha, fuck the ayatollah. May the Iranian people be the determiners of their own fate.
Again my first sentence in my first reply it was pretty clear that I support the iranians people who want more freedom and better economy. It is still pretty important to mention that foreign western intervention and hypocrisy would result even more deaths even after the regime potentially fall
