    Any time I see an uprising anywhere in the world, my first thoughts are how is the US involved. This one was no exception. This is a fantastic write up. Thank you I am wondering if you know about their water situation. It cannot be as bad as reports coming out make it seem, can it?

      My first thoughts, as well. Sign of the times, and on the plus side, it seems more people are becoming aware of this, despite their refusal to openly acknowledge it.

    I have unfortunately not met any Iranian person who isn’t a bizarre monarchist and anti Islamic republic conspiracy theorist ( who believe that the west orchestrated the Ayatollah coming to power somehow).

    It’s as if the entire diaspora is brainwashed.

        Its either a survivor bias or selection bias but yeah, its easier to find a needle in a haystack than a pro-cuba ex-cuban in the US or iranian in this case .

      Honestly the best way to find a non loony Iranian in the west is to go to a pro-palestine organization or something similar, becuase they’ll usually be disconnected from the opinions of the community.

      They exist, but it’s not very common for people without political education or who just refuse to acknowledge that the US is the first threat to deal with when it comes to changing Iran.
