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.

    here in the united states of america where ice agents are going from door to door raiding homes, abducting people, even murdering citizens in cold blood, it would be exceedingly easy to send a film crew to Miami Florida, clear the streets of anyone who isn’t a “true red-blooded MAGA patriot”, and tell them to party and have a great time. Then they can publish that video and say “Hey look everything’s going great in the united states, nobody is being brutalized by gestapo agents, you won’t find a single incident of that kind here in our heavily curated video”

      You might have had a point if it was just a handful of 5-10 min videos. But hundreds of 30-50 min videos across hundreds of channels in each of which appear hundreds of random passerby all being staged? That’s some “the moon landing is fake, look the shadows are wrong!” levels of conspiracy theory thinking.

      That’s being done IN THE WEST, not everywhere you want to project the west’s crimes on.
