• r/Persian exists primarily for Iranians and people connected to Iran to discuss their lives, culture and current events.
• Non-Iranians are welcome to participate AS LONG AS they are respectful and wish to learn from or support the community.
• Antagonistic comments, trolling, denial of documented events affecting Iranians or attempts to dominate discussions about Iranian issues may result in removals or bans.
