When we encourage people to protest their govt, we endanger their lives while being risk free of our own.
I fear that many of the people who have encouraged these protests are still in the shadows smiling everytime someone dies.
Alinejad is one of them.
- sjducb 4y agoI think that the protestors want as much support as possible. If you take the risk to protest then you want your allies and supporters to cheer you on.
- nashashmi 4y agoExcept this movement was not started by the protestors on the ground. It was started by protestors on twitter, some of whom spread false news to exacerbate the situation.
- sjducb 4y agoHello propaganda account. That's not relavent. Right now lots of ppl are protesting and they want support.
- michaeltimo 4y agoThe main reason for these demonstrations is the systematic repression of this corrupt dictator's regime for over 4 decades, and not the coverage of the news and the reflection of the people's voices by Iranian journalists like Alinejad. What causes the killing of people is this bloodthirsty regime and its dictator, Khamenei. Please don't write the regime's fallacies here, no one buys it.
- nashashmi 4y agoI doubt anyone, save Iran's western opponents, believes the demonstrations are a result of built up systematic repression. ONLY women are participating the vast majority of the times and males who are attempting to support THEM. This is not something that has been building up. But rather was instigated in a color revolution. Calling Alinejad a journalist is like calling Edward Snowden a journalist. They are nothing other than whistleblowers. Except Alinejad lied this one instance and shows glee when people die. Please don't make these protests largely about the regime. They are specifically protesting for their rights.
