Bravery of Iranian women is admirable.

42 years of Taliban style pressure didn't manage to break the will of brave Iranian women who fought against the regime in every corner and every moment of their lives.

The defiance is now reached a new level and girls and women openly defy the compulsory Hijab.

Police in Iran have launched an investigation after a video showed riot police repeatedly kicking and then shooting a man

As the old Persian proverb says:

  • The soup was so salty that even the king tasted it.

Regime is desperate to show they are acting with civility toward protesters. And TBF compared to their actions during the 1980s and then 2009 riots, they have not used their worse paramilitary groups yet.

Mainly because they know that the moment they use IRGC troops with military weapons, the situation will get out of hands.

They have only acted extremely violent in Baluchistan and Kurdistan, mainly because of the historical conflict in those 2 regions as well as the attacks by separatist groups in those regions targeting IRGC and border patrols.

There are many voices inside the regime calling for abolishing the moral police. They are still in minority but some big names among the clerics have put their voice behind the idea.

One comment was specially important.

The Islamic term of "Amr be maEruf VA nahy az moknksr" (demand righfulness and oppose immoral act), has a limit, if a person doesn't want to be corrected, it is not our job to save their sole, the almighty god will punish them on judgment day.

This means that the whole function of moral police should be changed into an advisory role rather than enforcing or punishing those who do not complying with the Hijab rules.

Unfortunately, these ideas are some 40 years too late and the current situation can't be changed slowly and gradually. The people demanding the resignation of Khamenei and change of theocracy, so there will be nothing in between the 2 lines other than a major conflict, or total collapse of the regime (highly unlikely).

Iran protests: Diaspora Iranians plagued by online harassment campaign

Accused of being agents of the Islamic Republic, Iranians in exile increasingly fear for their safety

Negar Mortazavi is an Iranian journalist and commentator who for many years has been seen as a leading authority on the country and its place in the world.

Like many in the Iranian diaspora, she regards herself as an "exile" from the land in which she was born, and has faced harassment from the Iranian government over her work.

Despite this, she has also for years faced repeated accusations of being an apologist or outright agent of the Islamic Republic. Her tweets are bombarded from an array of accounts - many created expressly to troll - calling her a "liar" or warning that she will "pay the price" for her alleged support of the government.

Unconfirmed report says that the head of Bsij Forces in Ziba Kenar, by the Caspian Seas was assassinated in front of his home today.

As much as I despise these monsters, killing IRGC and Basij will only push Iran further toward a civil war.

The disgusting propaganda wing of Iranian diaspora, by the support and fundings of MKO(gang or Rajavi), Pahlavi loyalists and AIPAC funded Maesoume (Masih) Alinejad sharing so many stupid photoshopped images that then spread like wildfire over social media

The brutality of the regime doesn't need these kinds of action. But these groups pushing for escalation of the conflict and turning the uprising into a full blown civil war which then later hoping that the US/NATO will interfere, sharing these stupid images and making stories up about the victims.

Reporting them on Twitter is almost impossible with the new interface that removed the option reporting the post as fake.

I am afraid, it will get even worse under Musk.

12 years old girl was hit by the "non lethal" IRI shotgun, she was hit by multiple metal pellets

This is inforiating. But sadly the daily accurancd in Iran these days.

Funny thing is the shotguns and bullets used by IRGC are made in UK.

'This is a feminist revolution': An interview with exiled Iranian-American journalist Negar Mortazavi

"[They're] demanding an end to the entirety of the system, not really looking for any moderate change, which they don't see an avenue for"

Nadine Talaat spoke to exiled Iranian-American journalist Negar Mortazavi about Iran's uprising.

Iran's women say they are prepared for the long fight to ensure their personal freedoms.

I just hope that the extremists don't hijack the movement and push for armed uprising.

Something that would make the mad hardliners very happy.

Women are driving the largest anti-government protest movement Iran has seen in decades. They are risking their lives to demand basic freedoms.
...
In Iran, Sharia-based laws regulate how women can dress and behave. Fathers and husbands make many of the important decisions in a woman's life. There is also widespread and systemic gender discrimination.

In the 2022 World Economic Forum's (WEF) "Gender Gap Report

,>" the country ranks 143 out of 146 in an international comparison of gender equality indicators.

More than anything, the lack of women's political participation plays an important role in Iran's poor ranking. Germany, for example, moved up one spot to 10 in the latest report because of the growing participation of women in politics.

A New Iran Has Been Born — A Global Iran

An interview with the scholar Asef Bayat widely shared by Iranians — and now banned by the Tehran authorities — is published by New Lines in English translation for the first time

The following interview with Asef Bayat was published in Persian on Oct. 10 by the Tehran daily Etemaad. Shortly after its publication, the Iranian authorities ordered the newspaper to take the interview down from its website. The interview had already gone viral in Iran and abroad, and several other outlets that had reposted it were likewise forced to unpublish it. We do not know what reasons, if any, the authorities gave for the ban; perhaps it was due to the analysis provided by Bayat, a well-respected scholar of social movements and revolutions influential within Iran’s intellectual and political circles. Multiple websites inside Iran currently continue to carry the interview. The ban was first reported by the online Radio Farda. Over the following days, the interview was shared in tens of thousands of social media posts among Iranians worldwide. It is published here in English translation for the first time.

Geoff Golberg takes a closer look into a college professor/Harvard law grad driving online attacks on Iranian-American women journalists and the likely role of twitter bots in amplifying the aggression.

Shahrooz, one of the more active non-sockpuppet accounts that similarly has targeted Fassihi (alleging both are part of the Iran Lobby), opts to hide behind thousands of fake Twitter Followers, which not only inflate his Followers count, but also function to artificially amplify the content of his tweets:

Among Shahrooz’s 21.1K Followers, Social Forensics has identified:

  • 436 accounts that have, on average since being created, tweeted 100 or more times per day -1,024 accounts that have, on average since being created, liked 100 or more tweets per day
  • 344 accounts that have, on average since being created, tweeted 100 or more times per day AND liked 100 or more tweets per day

Of the 344 accounts referenced above, 290 of them were created in Sep or Oct 2022 (view accounts here).

These accounts all amplify the same accounts and hashtags, indicative of a script/automation being used to mislead others (gaming hashtags to trend, for example) and disrupting the experience for Twitter users that Shahrooz opts to tag in his tweets (i.e. brigading the tagged users via bombarding their Twitter notifications).

Another popular BD post by fake ID and bots on Twitter.

The swedish text doesn't say anything about sending the Iranian ambassador back, but the farsi "translation of the tweet that is being copied and shared by 100s of accounts wrongfully say that.

It's truly upsetting and infuriating to see these assholes hijack the social media with their half truth and pure lies.

Who is behind these accounts? Who financed them?
