injunjaneHere is a text of a monologue recorded on video and posted in Facebook by some girl who does look Iranian (only without veil and all those religious attributes). I can't verify where it comes from, but I can fact-check it.
And my conclusion from this fact-checking is: people who defend radical Islam and so-called Palestinians in the US are, to say the least, biased in what they support. Heavily biased. They live in some kind of bubble and don't seem to look around and try to make their own conclusions.
"Hi I am Iranian.
Everyone keeps asking the same question: what's wrong with the left? Why are they so loud, why do they support the Gaza Strip, but are completely silent when it comes to Iran?
Well, the answer is simple: because this truth exposes lies. Because recognizing Iran will destroy the ideological fantasy they have built.
Let's be clear: the Islamic Republic of Iran is not a victim of western imperialism. This is a theocratic authoritarian regime that survives by exporting violence, financing Islamists and suppression of its own people.
Yes, he is funding Hamas. He is financing Hezbollah. All these little proxies around the region and the world - at the expense of Iranian money, not government or regime, but stolen money taken from workers who now cannot afford bread in Iran, from inflation-stricken families, taken from women who are beaten, jailed, tortured, raped for refusing to follow religious teachings. the listens.
And this is why the leftists are silent: because Hamas fuels their narrative and the Iranian people don't. Because Islamist violence against Israel can be paraphrased as resistance, but Islamist violence against Iran exposes the truth.
Right now, as you watch this, Iran - a country of over 92 million people - is being destroyed in real time. Almost total blackout for more than 24 hours: no Internet, no call service, no communication at all.
And - silence.
No "emergency protests" on western campuses, no hashtags, no statements of solidarity, no megaphones.
Because the suffering of the Iranians doesn't fit into their agenda. Because leftist movements are not driven by human rights today; they are driven by electoral outrage and ideological loyalty.
They will scream about censorship unless it’s done by the Islamic regime. They will condemn state violence to the end, but they will never say a word if it is wrapped in religious language.
They will chant "Free Palestine" but they will never say "Free Iran" because it will require acknowledging something inexcusable: that political Islam is not about liberation but dominance. And this is exactly what is happening in the West, by the way.
The Islamic Republic is not anti-imperialist; it is imperialist towards its own people.
Hamas is not some isolated resistance group; it is part of the broader Islamic ecosystem that is funded, trained and sustained by regimes like the Islamic Republic of Iran.
Here's the part they don't want to hear: You can't claim moral superiority by justifying a regime that kills and punishes women for refusing to wear hijab, punishes protesters, cuts off an entire nation of 92 million people from the Internet, and uses foreign proxies as a distraction from their internal collapse.
You can't pretend to care about the Palestinians while ignoring the Iranians who are being shot, tortured, killed by ISIS in Iran. This is not solidarity; this is ideological blindness.
The Iranian people are not silent; they are being forced to. Silence from the Western Left is their choice to defend ideology, their choice to justify Islamism, their choice to look away when millions of people suffer because their suffering - the suffering of the Iranian people - complicates the slogan.
History will remember this moment. She will remember who spoke in favor of universal freedom, and who decided that some lives matter less than preserving the narrative.
Long live Iran.
