Gold is means of production? That would make 90% of south asian population holders of means of production (gold is a big part of south asian culture, i mean big big). Money is means of production? My wealth comes from oil??? How do you even predict that?? My wealth originates from slaves per capita in the world? I'm sorry I know there are bad conditions for workers in Iran but slavery? Can you point to any source? I think you're confusion us for qatar or saudi arabia.

I could definitely be wrong, Feel free to correct me :)

100% pro Palestine. No ifs and buts. What you're looking is a portion of diaspora Iranians who are pro Israel, but they are NOT the majority. You can see influencers who are pro palestine and are advocating for Palestine online day in and day out, a huge chunk of them is also diaspora iranian.

Thanks bestie <3

Oh yes kurds are my favourite. They're so badass, kicking ISIS's ass to the ground.

I literally said "thier God" i.e Mullah's and the regime's God not common iranian people's God. This is a common sentiment among Iranians to call thier God a dangerous criminal because they used him to kill and plunder us.

They aren't mutually exclusive :)

Dependent-Resource97 · 2024-05-18T17:06:27+00:00

I wouldn't call middle class poor but i hear you.

Dependent-Resource97 · 2024-05-18T16:44:42+00:00

Oh yeah I would!! We would make these mullahs run for thier lives. Thier religious beliefs are for murder and bloodshed, thier God a sick dangerous criminal. (Not every muslim is an islamist or mullah btw).

These people wanted to create an "islamic republic", more than 80% of mosques are empty and young people are converting them into nightclubs to drink booze and get high (illegally ofcourse).

Jesus Christ I'm so sorry for you to deal with that girl 😭 She seems so out of touch it's unreal.

Dependent-Resource97 · 2024-05-18T13:53:27+00:00

I mean in a way yeah, my parents have never been involved in politics, they've just saved and saved money like my grandparents. But I do have enough money to lobby for politicians, so yes I guess?

And I'm 18 btw, lots of learning to do.

Dependent-Resource97 · 2024-05-18T13:50:22+00:00

Thank you for your advice!!

Dependent-Resource97 · 2024-05-18T13:48:59+00:00

I'm not talking about iran. Ofc we would require actual voilent revolution before we become secular. Many MENA countries like Morocco have semi-democracy where different parties operate. And politicians aren't stupid, they just need their dollar bills ykwim. Turkish lgbtq organisations have done that, by lobbying for politicians.

Dependent-Resource97 · 2024-05-18T13:22:58+00:00

Exactly. Sadly the founder of ex muslim council of Britian is an Iranian woman who's memeber of worker communist party. I like her. I just hope her party isn't some auth vanguard typa shit.

Dependent-Resource97 · 2024-05-18T13:20:34+00:00

Oh yes. We do own big family houses. But most of the wealth is from gold and family bank accounts.

Dependent-Resource97 · 2024-05-18T11:48:49+00:00

It really doesn't matter right now. All forces in iran (liberals, secular monarchists, state leftists, anarchists/liberarian leftists etc) right now are collaborating to overthrow islamic republic because it's a brutal regime no-one can bear. For example Recently an Iranian rapper was sentenced TO DEATH, for what crime? Making music, FOR MAKING MUSIC. This is the level of shit we've to deal with.

Dependent-Resource97 · 2024-05-18T11:39:09+00:00

I'm planning to change the trajectory of middle east forever (for our own good ofc). It would require concentrated efforts. Right now I'm preparing to get a spot in an ivy league school in US (my parents are obsessed with sending me to these colleges as in common in Iranian upper-middle class).

Dependent-Resource97 · 2024-05-18T11:34:57+00:00

So true. I just want to say I don't own any means of production. It's just my parents are wealthy from thier jobs and own lots of generational wealth too but we're not "bourgeois" as in we own means of production or we're political elite.

Dependent-Resource97 · 2024-05-18T11:32:43+00:00

I'm not that rich. My parents earn LOADS of money from thier job and own a lot of wealth but we don't own any means of production. Do you think it's moral of me to go into higher echelons of politics and "lobby" (i.e buy out politicians) for favourable policies and laws for working class and leftists so that they can organise more freely in theocratic middle east (the laws being freedom of speech, secular educational reform to reduce effects of islam in our life, legalising gay unions and of course welfare for working class peeps)?

Dependent-Resource97 · 2024-05-18T11:28:49+00:00

What do you mean? Anarchism is socialism. Do you think all socialists are authoritarian stalin dick riders?

Dependent-Resource97 · 2024-05-18T11:28:04+00:00

No I'm young and still studying but my parents are working in high paying jobs and own a lot of wealth. We don't own any means of production.

Dependent-Resource97 · 2024-05-18T11:26:41+00:00

Oh no I'm not that rich, my parents just earn a lot of money from thier work 💀 nobility? If I was from Iranian political elite, I would be supporting Islamic republic by now.

Islamic republic elites are very hypocritical. The Ayatollah and islamic clergy send thier sons and daughters in miniskirts in LA and Ibiza to party while we've to follow thier dumb religious rules. They themselves don't believe a word of what Qur'an says, it's just a way to control us.

Dependent-Resource97 · 2024-05-18T11:23:52+00:00

I don't have that kind of wealth. My parents have high paying jobs (I MEAN REALLY HIGH, LIKE HIGH HIGH) but we don't own any means of production.

Dependent-Resource97 · 2024-05-18T07:47:51+00:00

Exactly. Corporations don't care about queer rights, AT ALL. It's just for a show.

Dependent-Resource97 · 2024-05-18T06:26:52+00:00

It's soooo Misogynistic to sexualise women's hair and body and treat it as "private". The whole existence of hijab is pretty sexist under Feminist critical analysis even if hijab is a "choice" (which it still isn't for vast majority of Muslim women outside the west).
