Given how the US is treating protesters on university campuses this month, I’d say we’re not far behind.
Remember when the Trump admin was disappearing people from protests in unmarked vans driven by anonymous people wearing no uniforms?
This is what a lot of fascist politicians aspire to be, though they’d never say it out loud. After all, they only want to do this to the “bad” people.
Sorry for making this US-centric, this is a shame for Iran and their society, both of which have great potential if they could get out from under the boot.
“Can’t you just shoot them? Just shoot them in the legs or something?"
-Donald Trump, regarding those protesting the death of George Floyd

Don’t forget that he had to be told that being shot in the legs is a deadly injury because of the major arteries.
The previous president of the united states thinks action movies are real.
Side note.
One of my favourite things movies and TV shows can do is show an injury that would be minor on an action movie, then proceed to explain that no, it’s actually possible to fully die from it.
Archer is a good example:
“You were knocked out, which btw is suuuper bad for you”
I expect nothing less from a man who recommended we nuke hurricanes.
Sorry for making this US-centric, this is a shame for Iran and their society, both of which have great potential if they could get out from under the boot.
As an Iranian, please do make this about the US. We have seen a lot of parallels with what is wrong with iran vs what is wrong in US.
It’s what makes the whole death to America chant so ironic.
From my eyes, there is no iran vs us or all that. This is a human problem when people take power and suppress their citizens using fear tactics. We all should be on team democracy and personal freedoms.
Ok sure but you have to understand that things happening in America are much worse because they actually matter
Boop beep I got delete. .
It was sarcasm, geez. The other commenter was right to criticize you for trying to make something that happened elsewhere into America Bad.
until a 16 year old girl is found dead on the side of the street after being arrested… STFU
Would you also take a 16 year old killed during the arrest? How about in custody? Would you also accept sexual assault or rape while in custody?
I feel like where the body ended up is not the major issue here.

You don’t wait for hell before you start fighting.
Given the state of US policing, that’s probably a weekly occurrence.
… Is it? Are protesters of modesty laws regularly arrested raped and killed without consequences in America?
Would you prefer to live in Iran right now?
Look, America is pretty shitty, but if your statement is America = Iran then you clearly know fuck all about Iran. Don’t minimize this woman’s death and the conditions that spurred her to protest.
“Police killed over 1.3k people in 2023 in America”
“police officers in the US were charged with forcible rape 405 times between 2005 and 2013. That’s an average of 45 a year. Forcible fondling was more common, with 636 instances.”
Cops in America are going around murdering and raping without consequences.
She was a very brave teen. Fuck the Iranian regime.
It is so incredibly sad reading what her last moments were like. This poor young woman.
Her hair was two colors so she deserved it. /s
Feral animals without any sense of decency. Broken minds whose mothers either failed them or they failed their mothers.
Ooooh… now all of a sudden liberal media cares about protestors in Iran again - anything to distract from the thousands of civilians they’ve helped murder somewhere else over there in the middle-east…
