The latest round of #protests in #Iran is large, significant and sharp.

@benroyce I enjoy the privilege of free speech and being a (white) man, so I can't imagine the bravery of these women as I never had to fight for any of those. I have great respect!
the #basiji are extremely brutal (conservative govt thugs bussed in from rural areas to the cities to crack skulls and murder, like ICE in the USA)
the people of #Iran are putting their lives on the line like us pampered complacent Westerners have no conception of. I like you have nothing but the utmost respect for them

The latest round of #protests in #Iran is large, significant and sharp. We shall hope and see if the people of Iran have success this time
Here's a little #socialMedia wrinkle and it is amazing
#Women have been lighting pictures of the #Ayatollah on fire, and lighting cigarettes with it
Burning photos of the supreme leader is a serious offense
Women smoking is restricted
Not a single (mandatory) #hijab to be seen
@benroyce Boooo down with smoking

@benroyce the issue. Is those protesters are not calling for non foreign power intervention that cause chaos

@benroyce Are these photos coming fom the women themselves showing their face? I ask because only one has a black beam, the others could risk their lives.

@benroyce I lived in Tunisia during the ousting of our dictatorship . Do you know why we are the relatively successful one in the region? Because major powers did not intervene.
I am sure that ton of people who really protests against oppression and the deteriorating cost of living but it would be very naive to think that there are not people who only serves the imperial and neo imperial powers
Underestimating Trump is very dangerous. He is the new Hitler

@benroyce I've a lot of respect for you, Ben. But I doubt that your source is valid and that this helps the cause. Afaik Metro is a side kick of the Daily Mail. And the image sources say "Picture: X". Plus, these women, if the images are real, can easily be recognized, which might put them in mortal danger.

@benroyce I agree with your description of an orange turd, but sadly his enablers, co-conspirators care and support his lunacy, thinking he’s the flavor of the year, propping him up with reinforced 2x4s on his golden toilet. These people, including powerful people are our real problem. And by my estimation, it’s the reason we face a hard reset involving much pain in this Nation, compounded by dummies at the bottom, too stupid to know who stole their job in the first place.

you are correct the basiji could target them
i would assume the women posted the pictures themselves, and the one with bars over her eyes, that that was her choice out of concern for her safety
the rest:
i don't think they care. i think it is their choice not to care
they are indeed risking their lives
but they have been risking their lives since they were born just trying to live as free women in iran
and some are being killed this very day

@benroyce The hijab is not a religious garment. It's an instrument of control.

i have two problems with your comment
this is about the people of iran, it is not about trump
why do you insist on making it about trump?
that's inauthentic of you, like you're working an agenda
indeed: fuck trump
so *you* stop making it about trump
you dig?
also:
Kais Saied is an authoritarian in Tunisia. the people of Tunisia may need to rise up again
