What the Islamic regime did during the 2022–2023 protests was a crackdown.

What it did this year was a massacre. Please stop using the word “crackdown” when describing what happened in Iran last month.

The Islamic regime in Iran has just been elected Vice-Chair of the U.N. Commission for Social Development, whose priority theme will be promoting democracy, gender equality, and ensuring tolerance and non-violence.
I shit you not.

Chair: “I hear no objection.”

The UN is IRGC fan-girl trash.

Parts of the Palestinian activist movement in the US have unfortunately been overtaken by campist politics that have utilized Palestine for broader ideological projects. This is the co-founder of Palestine Action US. (1)

Such profound callousness belies her statement.

Here’s just a sample of what Iranians are putting up with despite her glib statement.

The "Hidden" Injury: Why 300,000+ people in Iran face a new epidemic. 🧠🚫As a neurosurgeon, I’m trained to look past the initial trauma to the long-term neurological cost. In Iran, the use of shotgun blasts has left hundreds of thousands with a permanent medical "souvenir": retained lead and steel pellets leading to chronic pain and a looming narcotics dependence epidemic.This isn’t just about the physical wounds you see on the news. It’s about:📍 Central Sensitization: The brain rewiring itself to "stay" in pain.📍 Retribution Fear: Thousands are too afraid of arrest to seek surgery, leaving nerves to scar and wither.📍 The Addiction Cycle: History (like the American Civil War) shows us that untreated mass trauma leads to mass dependency.We are witnessing the birth of a chronic pain epidemic that will last decades. This is a medical crisis. Share this to ensure these "invisible" injuries aren't forgotten.#freeiran#iranrevolution#genocide #neurosurgery #iran

I see that Iranians are getting acquainted with the segment of the western left that believes that only massacres committed by US allies are bad.

The way they're gaslighting victims while criticizing those who were doing the same elsewhere...Exactly the same as their right-winger counterparts.

سلام،این سلاخی و کشتار مردم ایران به همه تسلیت میگم. امیدوارم خون پاک این عزیزان کشته شده به هدر نره.
من هر چهار شب، غرب تهران بودم و مشاهدات من این بود:
شعارهای مردم واضح بود، بدون لکنت بود، شفاف بود.
طرفدار رضا پهلوی نیستم، از نظر فکری هم باهاش فاصله دارم ولی سگ کی باشم که بخوام، تاریخ تحریف کنم.
