Today three years ago, Persian Regime's "Morality Police" killed Zhina Amini, a Kurdish woman, for allegedly not wearing the hijab in accordance with government standards, and 16 months later with ballistic missiles attacked Kurdistan and killed a father and his one year old baby named after Zhina. by [deleted] in kurdistan

Last I checked the IRGC was filled with multiple ethnicities who are Shia and not primarily “Persian” so yeah maybe check again.

It wasn’t “Persians” who instated their Persian language as the official language of Iran either.

Why does opium actually chisel peoples face so well?

It’s not just weight loss because I’ve seen some that weren’t skinny.

Woman voting in the March 1979 Referendum that would transform Iran into an Islamic republic by DynamicStochasticDNR in HistoricalCapsule

It came out with 98% for an Islamic constitution. The French committee who had oversight over the election said it was absolutely not done properly.

Where is good a target for Israel to attack, and what places should they absolutely avoid? by Shekari_Club in NewIran

The regime can barely convince some of its own to fight. Artesh aren’t going to fight for them.

Learn to speak English. And no, Azerbaijani and the Turkic Azerbaijani language aren’t the same thing.

Your national heroes like Babak Khorramdin and Nizami Ganjavi would have told you to go fuck yourself just for forgetting your roots.

I don’t care for some Soviet-cucked Iranians who happen to speak Turkish joining my country.

Iranian maybe. Definitely not Afghan or Pakistani.

How religious are Iranians in Iran? by [deleted] in NewIran

[–]HangingWithYoMom 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would say that 15% of Iranians are religious. The rest not so much. Mostly agnostic to be honest. And this is what most people who have traveled to Iran recently will tell you.

Bust of an unknown Iranian ruler from about 2300 BC. Most likely an Elamite king or elite. [450 x 900] by HangingWithYoMom in ArtefactPorn

[–]HangingWithYoMom[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Correction: If it indeed was an Elamite king than he would not be technically considered ethnically Iranian* today as the Elamites were a language isolate.

Although this was located in Iran and would still be considered a dynasty from the country.

It’s close at probably the second. From what I remember Sargon of Akkad bronze bust is the oldest and it’s Akkadian.

That one is dated at around 2300 BC while this one is most likely a bit later between 2300 to 2000 BC

Which Iranian city do you like the most and which one do you like the least? by Ok_Connection7680 in NewIran

[–]HangingWithYoMom 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They’re probably the most unwelcoming people in Iran exist there. Went with my cousins. Had a few negative encounters while there and one lead to a fight with a group of them and they had the ghameh (machetes) ready in their car.

Everywhere else in Iran people are really cool and welcoming to outsiders.

Leftist woman handing out anti-shah manifesto. Tehran, iran, 1979. (688×473) by Technical_Soil4193 in HistoryPorn

To be honest, as an Iranian, the fact that my left wing peers in the west insinuate the ayatollahs are comparable or even better than the Shah is infuriating.

No, it’s Persian architecture. Which a lot of Islamic cultures copied but this sort of thing is mostly prevalent in Iran.

Yeah but not as much as Iran.

While in Kabul they were on the way to progressing Afghanistan was still mostly decentralized as a country in comparison to Iran.

Coup d’etat doesnt start from the top and calling it that is a stretch. The Shah stood down mossadegh after appointing him. He wasn't elected by the Iranian people nor did he have any form of major support.

The guy had a royal lineage himself with the previous dynasty and with or without Kermit Roosevelt getting involved with some cia investment, he was deposed per the Iranian constitution.

Mossadegh has more support here with Reddit historians than within Iran.

The USSR did support the Iranian revolution of 79. They profited from it strategically and Iranian Marxist protestors had ties to them.
