For the uninitiated: Western propaganda about Iranian women all forcibly wearing headscarves is exaggerated into oblivion.

It is so blatantly fake that it’s debunked by a few seconds on Youtube:

Go to any random point in this video, which after the intro is one continuous long shot: https://youtu.be/HpCMThYr8WU?t=212

Or any other video on this channel. Or search the words “Iran walk” on youtube and go to some other channel and you can see a woman without headscarf every 20 seconds in busy areas.

    I get that the media narrative may be one sided but is the info about arrests not true?

      We cannot trust the info our news is fed. Even the well intentioned ones. The ones with the wherewithall to call out such campaigns for war, like the nytimes, gave up already. I think israel broke their brain, they had an identity crises and realized they are fascist cunts.

      Iran’s government being bad like every govt is beside the point. This instability was fomented by the west after a war on false pretexts by the west, now propagandizing for more bad faith military action. The protesters are pawns of the west, iran will assiciate them with the enemy and rally around the flag.

      If the west cared to help they would keep their fucking mouths shut. Nothing good will come from this. People cheering this as democracy coming are removed from reality to say the least. To celebrate the shaw to boot is just ignorance.
