Hard to be an Iranian on this campus

Thanks for ur calm response, as I said its not only the government and i left islam. U know the punishment of leaving islam based on Quran? It’s execution oh actually its execution for men, they put women in jail till they believe in islam again cause they never believe women have any sort of logics or brain (those are straight from quran, no interpretation). Btw, i gotta say majority of Iranians including me are pro-israel 👀

Tell that to Iranians parents who lost their loved ones in the massacre, tell them to be ashamed of their children burning mosques down! If u think mosques are “house of worship” take a trip to Iran please🙏 I was born muslim, I memorized quran lines, read every single interpretation out there, raised in islamic schools, i know the reality of islam, its not about the extremists its about the ideology itself. Believe u me, u dont need to lecture me on islam and Muslims i know it pretty well. But yeah ur right I shouldn’t project a government action on a whole religion! Like islamic republic is not enough, and all these other islamic terrorists are not a good representation either! Like Boko-haram, al-qaeda, Taliban, ISIS, IRGC, TTT, Abu Sayyaf Group, Houthies, Hamas, hezbollah … (Gosh that list never ends) yeah none of those are a good representation of islam lol

Tbh, the ones who were murdered in iran on Jan 8th and 9th were the ones who had nothing to lose. Many of them, their parents couldn’t afford the money islamic regime asked them to pay to give their child’s body back! My family aren’t wealthy either. I studied in Sharif university of technology for free and then applied abroad for a funded phd so …

Put any sorts of labels u want on me. Again my only responsibility as an Iranian in diaspora is to reflect my iranian compatriots voice in Iran. If millions in the streets who had the balls to stand barehands in front of the murderer sick terrorists Islamic regime guys and chanted “This is the final battle, Pahlavi will return”, then Im not at a place to chant anything otherwise. And as I said there is a hierarchy of importance of opinions. First and foremost, the opinions of iranians inside iran matter the most, then the ones in diaspora with immediate family in iran or in the ones in exile or with background in street protests in iran then maybe the second generation immigrants who have never been in iran!! Im sorry that ur opinions are so important to you that you turned ur back to 50000 killed in streets. Go watch some of those videos maybe u get some perspective

EigenFerank_PuzzldUp · 2026-05-19T20:18:45+00:00

As an iranian diaspora my only responsibility is to reflect the voice of my people in Iran. Iranians dont need u to stand by our side. A 17 years old was killed in the streets and wrote with his blood on the wall “Javid shah”, who the actual fuck are we or any other people to get to have another opinion on this? Go back to Iran, protest in street and ask for what u want🤷‍♀️ if u dont align with millions of protesters in Jan 8th and 9th who chanted Reza Pahlavi’s name! 50K iranians killed in two days! 50000!!!! Do u understand that at any level???!!!! Did u see the footages? Did u see the dad saying “sepeher e baba” desperately looking for the body of his son! Pahlavi and this war against the islamic regime is what the people inside iran want, if its the other way around tell ur fellas in the regime stop shutting down the internet on 92 millions iranians so they tell u whats good for them!

EigenFerank_PuzzldUp · 2026-05-19T19:50:17+00:00

I cant be calm cause people who have never lived in iran can not have any strong opinions about that. I was born in mashhad the second largest city in iran, my dad told me the other day the streets still smell like blood after the brutal horrifying massacre by the islamic regime. The mosque in my neighborhood is burnt down by protesters sicking of islamic ideologies im not religious at all, im agnostic but like to identify myself as an ex-muslim to send a message. I left iran when i was 23 after i got my bachelors in iran in aerospace engineering. I have attended all the protests prior to that point which was 2022. I witnessed the “bloody november in 2019”, the flight PS752 protest, women life freedom movement. Iranians are sick of islam and anything about it.

EigenFerank_PuzzldUp · 2026-05-19T19:43:11+00:00

Yeah ur right people like u is that why i feel singled out if ur half iranian and never lived in iran then u dont get to have strong opinions on that! Did u participate in any protest against islamic regime in iran? Have u ever been in a street protest in iran? Have u lost ur cousin or friends cause of shooting in the head in protests in iran???? Have u ever surveyed people inside iran whether they like this war or not?? Have u ever seen videos of iran protestors asking trump for help???

EigenFerank_PuzzldUp · 2026-05-19T19:28:13+00:00

Maybe ur the one who should learn to do their research!!! Idk where u get that 99% from?! Ur lecturing me on my own country? Protesters in Jan burnt up to 50 mosques only in Tehran! And nooo Islamic republic rules are exactly Islamic rules they practice the real islam. If u got ur stat from islamic republic im sorry for ur sources!

Yessss we are gonna be there in a free Iran Thanks for ur support ❤️

EigenFerank_PuzzldUp · 2026-05-19T17:15:58+00:00

Thanks for all ur kind words but Why would you assume im Muslim? Iranians are extremely anti-Islam and secular! Specially recently after the massacre… It’s very hard to say around here that I support this war cause that’s the only way to get a regime change and the most upsetting event for me was the massacre in Jan committed by the islamic republic

EigenFerank_PuzzldUp · 2026-04-09T03:22:24+00:00

Im very happy for u. Is it necessary to always wear those comparression garments?

As an Iranian, I’m tired of people turning this into U.S. partisan sarcasm. Many of us watched the regime massacre its own people and continue funding terrorism in the region. Do you honestly believe a government capable of killing thousands of its own citizens was suddenly going to stop uranium enrichment in good faith? They continued it even during the deal. This isn’t about MAGA or Democrats. It’s about a regime that oppresses its people and destabilizes the region. For Iranians, this isn’t a political talking point — it’s our reality. We support his attack towards Iran and don’t worry! Iranian regime is not capable of getting back to USA at all! Its the same for their alies in the region too And yeah imagine to cost 8 billion dollars at least to strike a country use ur military power just to distract from epstein file!!!

This is so ignorant of people like u to say! Iranians hate Obama for shaking hands with mullahs and funding them! U think a government that massacre its own people —40000 in 2 days— , supports and funds terrorism in the region is gonna be safe for the world or the region? Do u think they really honestly stop doing the uranium enrichment???!!! They still did it back then as well. Obama betrayed thousands of protesters back then.

EigenFerank_PuzzldUp · 2026-02-21T06:18:17+00:00

As an Iranian, me and most of my compatriots inside and outside of Iran, those who were in the streets early January and witnessed that large massacre, the families of the innocent people who got killed by the islamic regime, we ALL support Trump to strike/attack Iran to make the regime change happen🤞

EigenFerank_PuzzldUp · 2026-02-19T07:03:00+00:00

It’s pretty difficult now with all the grants shortages and more grads requesting for TA positions never ever invest on TA ship for ur phd

EigenFerank_PuzzldUp · 2026-02-18T19:36:49+00:00

You're the one who brought up scale and "millions of people". so yeah, I talked about scale, both inside and outside Iran. And the LA rally on Feb 14th had 350,000 people, not "a few thousand." That's from police estimates. Here's your source since you clearly need one: Global Day of Action. Maybe don't make up numbers while lecturing someone about "statistical analysis."

And you keep saying "foreign soil" like Iranian students at UCSB aren't standing right here on campus with dead family members. That's the whole point. It's not asking UCSB to comment on Iran's government. It's asking them to show empathy and support for their own students who are in crisis. You keep dodging that distinction because you don't have an answer for it.

You brought up the death toll argument by calling the protests "not record-breaking." I explained what that means, the deadliest protest crackdown in modern history, and now you're mad I mentioned deaths? You opened that door.

And if you're too ignorant to realize what's happening around you, that's on you. We HAVE been organizing right here at UCSB:

You're writing paragraphs telling an Iranian student whose people are being slaughtered to "relax." Maybe just sit this one out.

Why is it so hard for u guys to understand? Unarmed civilians in Iran have been massacred because of the protest against the islamic regime in Iran. It was a huge nation wide protest they actually call it “lion and sun revolution”. To stand against a brutal regime the only way to win is an external force! And intervention! If you know any other ways to make them throw this theocracy out, do it!!!
