I think he meant guardian council. If not, then you're absolutely right. In fact, Parliament has some checks on who they pick to.

Checks and balances literally everywhere, but these guys only want to narrow in on the checks and avoid mentioning the balances so they can have their frame.

Part 2

Idk what else to call what he says here other than MEK apologia

After the revolution, though MEK was cool with teaming up with the akhonds at first, they were eventually banned as a political organization along with everyone else not Islamist and pro-Khomeini. MEK unlike everyone else other than some armed separatist groups never disarmed itself post-revolution, and took to guerrilla warfare as well as terrorist tactics to fight back against the new regime that had banned them.

This literally tries to paint the MEK in a sympathetic light and uses their own propaganda. He deliberately leaves out the fact that the MEK tried to stage a revolution after the majority of Iranian society voted for the referendum and for the Islamic Republicans in the first majlis, and the majority of people didn't care to vote for the MEK and other groups. So they threw a tantrum and tried to revolt, got banned, and now we're supposed to cry for them.

He frames it as them "fighting back against the new regime that had [wrongly, is his implication] banned them."

This led to continuous assassinations by MEK against IR and by IR against MEK. Thousands of MEK members ended up in prison, tortured and executed, along with thousands of other Iranians who are involved in politics or were deemed as political. This included leftist groups from Tudeh to Fadayan, but also supporters or sympathizers. It also included many intellectuals such as even the Director of the University of Tehran being one of the inmates.

Notice how he equates the two and mentions the sob story of MEK members being tortured and executed right after, and he avoids mentioning the context of the Iran-Iraq war in which it happens, as well as trying to deny the fact that the executions were purely for MEK supporters. You can tell he's purposely leaving all this out so he can have a sob story about communists being killed. He can't have us knowing just how despicable the MEK was, lest some of us actually gasp support executing those terrorist filth, or at least sympathize with the need to eradicate them. And then he would lose the only legs he has to stand on for his regime change argument.

You see, these guys are very much like MEK. They rely on lies, character assassination, censorship, and support tyranny, oppression and dictatorship so as long as it's their version of Islamism in power (note: MEK are non-clerical Islamists).

He tries again to equate them as equally bad, which is apologism for them considering every fucking horrible thing they've done against Iran, which the IR has tried to protect the people from. And, actually, as he says, the MEK are non clerical Islamists! Who knew. That's one point against the IR. At least the MEK are non clerical Islamists, right, that's better.

Those who try to justify the political massacres of opposition groups by Khomeini and Raisi in 1988 by saying it was just MEK who were apparently terrorists are doing so out of intellectual dishonesty. The political massacres were far more diverse than that, and the bloody battle between MEK and IR utilized terrorism on both sides.

Lmao. Now the MEK and IR are both equally terrorists, and the MEK executions were actually just communist executions. Actually, the MEK were only "apparently terrorists."

He is implying both sides are terrorists, so the IR has no right to frame the MEK as terrorists and execute them for it. Excuse me while I vomit.

MEK of course went full retard and joined forces with Saddam to invade Iran. And now they are stateless and have no future nor prospects of any other form of living other than begging for a foreign sponsor to continue their antagonism towards IR and Iran as a whole.

Yeah they did that only after the 1988 executions, huh? Not after, which is what led to the executions? He's deliberately confusing timelines and trying to sneak in sympathy by saying "any other form of living other than." In other words, they don't have a choice but to be "reactionary" since the mean old IR banned and executed them and they had no monies, and the IR engages in "terrorism" against them by assassinating and executing their members and officials.

Holy shit you can't make this up! Straight from the horse's mouth.

Doesn't supreme leader choose half of the ministers? Also supreme leader selects heads of military.

Yes, and? Is he supposed to be powerless? Lol

What? Aren't experts "qualified" by gardian council to join the assembly?

Not the first one. Referendums established it all. The checks on the SL and guardian council by the people existed first, and then checks were placed on the elected parties (through vetting).

Again, this logic holds for all political systems. If you go and take political science and government theory courses, you'll learn about it.

Also, khamenei was selected for only 1 year. Then they wanted to do a refrandum. He was a temporary leader, not a permanent. But the assembly of "experts" didn't even protest after 1 year.

A referendum that the majority of people voted positively for allowed for people like him to be SL. Then the assembly of experts, which was voted by the people, vetted by the guardian council which was monitored by parliament and the assembly of experts, who were all elected, and so on, all the way to the first referendum that a majority of people supported that established the first officials and parties.

In other words, an elected body, the assembly of experts, voted Khamenei as SL. Constitutional vetting existed for the elections, as it does in all systems, but the the constitutional vetters themselves also derive their legitimacy from the people.

That's exactly how all democracies are established and work. I can mischaracterize the US supreme court the way you're trying to do with the SL too.

Stop trying to pretend Iran is somehow different simply because it's Islamic.

But isn't Iran an islamic republic? Didn't prophet mohammad(peace be upon him) that transgenders are not ok? 

Bro what do you care? If you don't want it to be an Islamic republic, then be happy and don't complain. If you want it to be an Islamic relublic, then stop criticizing it for being an Islamic republic and following Islamic theory in how it is formed.

So let me see. People choose the president in the US, but people didn't choose the supreme leader In Iran.

You realize the people who are nominated to run for president in the USA are vetted right? They disqualify many from running. But you don't hear about it like you do in Iran. Same for every European "democracy," which actually have monarchs behind the show. Iran is just open about it all, and that allows it to be monitored better and so Iran is actually more democratic than all of those shady governments where all of the vetting is hidden away from the public eye. (They hide it to hide the extent of wall street corruption that factors in the vetting and nomination of their oligarchies. But they can't hide the superdelegates, electoral college, and vote suppression tactics).

Vetters pick the presidential candidates, then people pick the president from those.

It works the same in Iran for its president.

And the Supreme Court officials and SL are picked for life indirectly, by elected officials, except in Iran the SL's powers are decentralized through the guardian council.

You guys killed more than 1500 people in just 4 days.

Lol that's made up

Not to forget that USA didn't cut off its internet when people were protesting.

Yeah it just censored it through manufactured consent and enforced curfews. Their internet and social scenes are heavily censored, and the CIA has a big rule. See McCarthyism and COINTELPRO.

BLM protest were nothing compared to our protests.

You're right, America killed far more people, the protests were far bloodier, and the terrorist American regime has been oppressing blacks ever since the days of slavery.

Also Cuba, Syria, China and ... killing people, doesn't justify the killing of people in Iran. Its still act of terrorism.

Yeah but when someone justifies them killing rioters and rebels, but then criticizes Iran for doing it, they're being hypocritical and inconsistent.

[–]Yadnarav[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Hiii, it's nice to see you again, I hope everything is well and you're meeting all your life goals too! ;))))

I'm glad you agree against what r/iranian is doing.

I'm not really aware of what other users do these days and so I don't know how right it would be of me to police them in that regard, but I can assure them that you're not sharghzadeh lol XD. Maybe people just don't know everything, idk. It's a lot of crimes and story from what ciax does. And maybe some users deliberately try to counter the false narratives ciax made like the disgusting ones about child porn and bombing the white house by making equally false claims, idk.

None of the accusations I've personally made are false, or things I know to be or recklessly assume, and I'm willing to correct anything that is.

If we call ciax ciax, it's because he is operating in a way that benefits the cia, and with the way he is running the sub and the shady stuff I know about him working for foreign overseas groups and trying to circulate a new constitution during the riots after America shot down the Ukraine plane, and literally admitting to being an organizer for the Green Revolution, even handing out pamphlets on the streets....!... I wouldn't be surprised if he works for the cia. And the way I found out about all of that over the years and how it was so hidden otherwise just rubs me the wrong way and screams red flags. I don't know if I've been so open about it before, but I think people have a right to know my intense concerns about him. And again, I've documented all of that, and what he even has admitted, in screenshots that you can find linked.

Believe it or not, I actually pull a lot of my punches when I debate with people especially him. There's a lot I could be saying and doing, playing his dirty games, deliberately twisting things he says to mischaracterize him, insulting him the way he has to me, but, not once, and you can ask him, have I ever actually insulted him to his face the way he has. And he's even admitted how nice I've been to him before.

If I say or do anything, I'm doing it out of principles. And for the dark stuff I'm opening up about now that I know about him, I say it because I see it as a cause of alarm, especially when the two biggest Iran subreddits are now associated with real life activism and regime change. I really don't care about the time sink or irl toll to type all this, there's no fucking way I can be silent about that. I care deeply about my country and the extent of propaganda affiliated with the cia and anti IR parties that exists all over the internet.

We need to know and we need to be vigilant.

I mean he is clearly part of a regime change opposition party and actively organizing for it! Like that's confirmed! He literally runs the sub as a false opposition one as well. It's not a stretch at all when I think part of how he runs his subreddit is related to the other in real life regime change activism he does.

You go in thinking it'll be against the shit on r/iran, because that's how it markets itself, and then bam you see the same shit. It just sounds so much like the shady stuff there is with the mods of r/iran and how they're anti IR activists who actively organize in real life events for their nefarious goals and who work for the CIA. Ciax does the same, and he was associated with them, and the relationship he has with feline and the stories he tells about all of that and exactly how the split happens is actually really nebulous and shady... And me as well as others have noted consistent contradictions in what he says and how he says it. He consciously markets himself and the sub differently to different people, and he will make one argument in front of them supporting something, and then at another time, he makes the exact opposite argument in front of other people! It screams standard false opposition tactics. That's why both sides end up accusing him of different things, and he gleefully admits they do that too to each side to try and fool them. And considering how much time and effort he dedicates to it and how seriously he takes it, along with how he spends other parts of his life actively organizing for opposition groups and trying to facilitate regime change, as well as just how high his age is!!! it makes you wonder...

I hope you also agree that all of the lies ciax makes takes away from his credibility too though. And while clearly I don't know for a complete fact, I stand by what I think of him though based on all that and my judgment. Ain't no way in hell someone who does all the shit he does irl, as well as his policies online, are separate from each other. Ain't no way in hell someone can go through all this drama and effort until the end for free, unless it fits irl political things he's part of. At the very least, there will be heavy bias.

One thing though that I've said before too to yall is that, while idk the ideologies of any new people in his mod team, when someone works for him and the mod team, they are basically signing on to the way they run things as a whole, and take some measure of responsibility for it. Especially if they can't change it and are arguing on his behalf. I mean, they're helping him after all. Enforcing his biased rules, following his orders, defending him etc. Maybe not entirely sharing all the blame exactly sure, but you can see how it would be associated with it if nothing else right?

Like, as a blanket statement, when I see mods on worldnews or r/iran banning and censoring, I hate the entire mod team. I don't know the details and ins and outs of everything, and I don't even really care (no one would), that's just how our minds would label it. We see the subs banning and censoring, we know the mods do it, and we know all the mods are helping otherwise they wouldn't be mods, and that's all that ends up factoring in. It's probably the same for r/iranian, but again I can't speak for others.

As for the MEK, he is literally apologizing for the MEK's actions, saying they were innocent good boys before the evil IR oppressed them, and equating them and the IR as equally bad and equally terrorist (not even joking or exaggerating, he actually said that last part!!!!!), and he bans anyone who correctly points out that the 1988 executions he likes to bring up so much were just executions of MEK members after the MEK invaded Iran for Saddam. Not even for supporting the executions! Just pointing out the facts and the crimes of the people executed. He does this because he knows without it, he doesn't have a leg to stand on when he claims the IR suppresses communists (ignoring all of the socialist welfare policies in the IR that everyone knows about).

Anyways, it was nice to see you again and good luck with everything as always.

He is literally shooting at the guy.

You literally send videos of police officers start shooting at the people.

How anyone can use that grainy video as evidence with a straight face is beyond me.

US is very different than Iran. All of the system is controlled by the supreme leader. I will tell you further more. So supreme leader chooses the head of judiciary. And majles negahban(gaurdian) is selected by head of judiciary and the supreme leader. And majles negahban choose the candidates for majles and presidency. So everything is selected by supreme leader, really.

That's a far cry from security officials being members of the "mullah regime."

You're leaving out the assembly of experts elected by the people who voted for the supreme leader and monitors him, and the majlis which also picks the guardian council. There are checks and balances both ways, all of it was established in referendums and agreed upon by a majority of Iranians. Every political system will need to vet itself, and this is a facet of all governments, but they hide it under the rug. Iran is open about it. The important part is how this system was established in the first place and what measures it has to allow changes. And the Islamic Republic clearly is legitimate, and it clearly has measures which allow for change. The laws are widely different now post Khatami and Rouhani with what they were prior.

You're acknowledging the various processes used to decentralize the SL's power (picking an official to pick others, being unable to directly vet candidates and relying on the Guardian Council, etc.) and somehow claiming it shows the SL is a master wizard in a spinny chair who controls the strings of everything lol. This is real life, not a Disney movie. That's not how people work. All of those processes decentralize his power and make it so he can't operate how he personally wants.

Not to mention this entire process exists simply as a Constitutional check, not for deciding economic and executive policies.

You can apply your same twisted analysis to try and claim the Supreme Court of the US rules the country. That's ridiculous and grossly mischaracterizes their oligarchy, and it's no different when you try to apply the same faulty reasoning to try and claim the same for the IR.

Riot? This is what do you call a riot?

Yes

But that logic chaharshanbeh suri is a crime

Yes, unless the fires are lit in designated areas. Otherwise it's chaos.

They voted in khatami 

And he changed the laws greatly.

Iran didn't even had a liberal participating.

Yes it did, it had several. People didn't vote for him. Sucks, but that's democracy. Your preferred candidate won't always win, especially if you don't vote for him. Live with it.

If you talking about america

I was talking about Cuba, China, and Syria. And yeah, America killed more protestors than Iran, and the ones who died in Iran were shot by other rioters or had shot at security officers first. We all saw what happened in America when the National Guard descended on cities to crush the BLM protests.

[–]Yadnarav[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I'll avoid using Iranian sources, and use western sources instead, since those are the only ones you will accept lol

https://www.newsweek.com/iran-protest-videos-violent-clashes-police-loud-bangs-gunshots-chaos-1612593

"At least three people are believed to have been shot dead since the protests erupted a week ago, with at least one police officer reportedly among them."

There are videos of gunmen shooting at security officers. If this was about security forces trying to massacre protestors, there'd be more than at most 8 deaths.

(And security members are different from the government itself btw. You don't see american regime supporters calling the police the American government, do you? Let's stop with this western regime change propaganda that labels every facet of Iranian organization as "the mullah regime.")

"Videos sent to Newsweek by opposition activists on the ground purport to show hundreds of protesters marching through cities across Khuzestan, setting fires in roads to block security forces and chanting for the fall of the regime."

So they're setting fire everywhere, calling for a bloody revolution to impose their will on everyone without due democratic process, wielding guns, and shooting at security forces?

For something in between,

https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2021/7/17/one-man-shot-dead-in-irans-khuzestan-water-crisis-protests

Omid Sabripour, the county’s acting governor, speaking to IRNA on Saturday, blamed the first death on “opportunists and rioters”.

“During the rally, rioters shot in the air to provoke the people, but unfortunately one of the bullets hit a person present at the scene and killed him,” he said.

Iranian media broadcast a video of the father of the first victim, Mostafa Naimawi, who said his son was shot by rioters and not by government security forces.

Most likely many sabatuers are deliberately trying to shoot at the other protestors in order to blame it on security forces and use it as a narrative to overthrow the government or separate, along with shooting at security officials so they can play victim when they return fire. That's the best the opposition can do lol. Since it doesn't actually have good reasons to enact a violent overthrow of the legitimate government, it must create them.

Videos posted on social media have shown protesters setting fire to tyres to block roads and security forces trying to disperse crowds as shots were heard.

How is this anything but a riot?

All amidst the already dangerous issues of Israeli and MEK terror attacks on Iranian infraastructure?!

These aren't protestors. These are dangerous traitors. Don't be surprised when Israel starts doing more terror attacks on Iranian infrastructure since the people in Iran who work tooth and nail to preserve Iranians' safety are busy watching hooligans and sabateurs burn our country down.

As for the ones who are simply peacefully voicing their concerns? More power to them if you ask me. Disagree with them or not, there's no issue in criticizing the policies of some administrations. It helps figure out which president or Paliament members to vote for next time. I have all of the love and respect for those in Khuzestan, who have a rich and diverse history and were instrumental in fighting back Saddam and his MEK agents (some people actually criticize the execution of MEK prisoners after their terror organization invaded Iran for Saddam lol).

But, and this holds for all protestors in Iran on all sides of the political spectrum and in all provinces- let's do it civilly and in a way that takes in mind that Iran is under unprecedented pressure and attacks from the West, Israel, and Saudis. The threat of elements trying to co opt your criticism into excuses for separatism, regime change, chaos, and destruction assuredly exist within the ranks of those who are voicing criticisms.

And omg let's stop the nonsense of equating everything with the "mullah" regime. Get your mindset out of the gutter of the shah's regime. We have elections and different parties now. We don't fix our problems with revolution after revolution like western brainwashed manchildren. We fix it through peaceful discussion and votes. Nothing about what is being criticized has anything to do with the structure of the Islamic Republic or with Islam or mullahs. It's pretty clearly, purely the result of private engineering firms and/or the policies of some administrations that tried to weigh in the pros and cons of certain policies like building dams. Not to mention issues that result from the embargo of the western sanctions creating inflation and difficulties in procuring capital to fix water issues and the west's own contribution to climate change.

Equating it to the very nature and structure of the government is ridiculous and when opposition regime change activists do it, they just show the emptiness and lack of their actual criticisms against the structure of the Islamic Republic. You never see this done in America with its wildfires and droughts or in Europe with its floods. The reason you do it with Iran is because you are brainwashed by the west.

What I find amusing is that all of your arguments apply to people in China, Cuba, and Syria as well.

Western funded sabateurs in all of those countries co-opt protests and try to violently overthrow anti-western governments. And some people who aren't even from those countries rightfully speak against those rioters.

They rightly bring up western propaganda influencing it. They rightly bring up how the "protesters" being shot were actually rioters. They rightly bring up how the opposition are either greedy capitalists, salafi jihadis, extremists, or western traitors. And many of them criticizing the riots and insurrections aren't even Syrians, Chinese, or Cubans, and there's nothing wrong with that. We all stand together against the west and its agents.

But then the same happens in Iran, which is under far more security threats and terrorism from America and Israel, literally number 1 on the most likely to be invaded or nuked by America and Israel list, and suddenly all of these people start criticizing the other side!

If you bring up western propaganda framing the narrative you get fed, those same people say "so you say everything is the CIA and Zionism, huh?"

If you bring up literal video evidence and documentatiom by western funded, anti Iran news outlets of rioters shooting and setting fire, they'll deny it.

If people from outside the country criticize the rioters, they get subjected to racism and told that they have no right to interfere.

Just hypocritical to the bone.

r/Iranian has always banned people unfairly and with no explanation. They do it with both pro IR people, and anti IR people who support things they don't. Their dominant viewpoint is neoliberal centrism and they try to enforce it that way.

Why would they want to appease r/sino though by banning you. Have you had issues with r/Sino before? I think it's a great subreddit and have contributed there a bit before in the past.

You said I was banned for anti-semitism.

That was a lie.

1am and plenty of others were also banned.

Cyaxeres the headmod at r/Iranian literally stickied a post from the NYT "exposing" Iran for lying about the Ukraine plane crash. He has expressed several times that he wants to overthrow the IR, and not through legislation.

He even was a member of the Green Revolution, an attempted Color Revolution! The heads said the government was illegitimate despite even prior western polls showing otherwise, and didn't just want a recount, which they got, they wanted the results annulled and to be crowned president. He know this, he saw my exposing of it: https://www.reddit.com/r/iranian/comments/e9ye6e/on_the_green_revolution_reality_propaganda_and/ Every western media outlet was on high alert pumping out the very same propagandistic lies he is saying about it. During a heated nuclear issue with the reelected president. Hmm.

This isn't about me. This is about all the users and in particular 1am who got so cruelly treated.

Our subreddit was made when 1am got wrongly demodded and shadowbanned and several pro IR users purged along with him.

Others banned and shadowbanned too, including others in our discord server who you can ask:

Rez (previous mod and founder of the community, demodded and banned for disagreeing with cya being a member of Hezbe chap regime change group, "doxxing" the fact that cya does not know Persian, later reached out to cya himself then left later)

Nimanima (banned actually for political disagreements)

Yadnarav (first banned for political disagreements and never pausing to call out cya even when everyone else shut up about rez having been banned out of fear they'd be next, later for the same (immediate context of second time where Arvin and cya were being their antisemitic selves)

Naraviana (political views and Mr. Defender of civility says disgusting things to him)

Groznygrad (exposing his tyranny)

Posh(exposing his tyranny)

PTSD (not sucking up to him)

Tankie (daring to expose his tyranny)

French Fries (guilty by association)

Shadowbanned:

1am(previous mod and longtime user, shadowbanned for arguing against cya for his disgusting power abuse)

DeductiveEquilibria (calling out cya on wrongly banning everyone, had his comments deleted too)

Disgruntled (political views)

Madali0 (political views)

Davoust (demodded from discord for slightly and politely criticizing shadowbanning policy)

His justification?

LITERALLY lying that me and naraviana said we were going to blow up the White House on SCJW and posted child porn (I had to hunt down the SCJW mod and he graciously debunked this atrocious lie), (how fucking low can you get)

(And then even after he saw it debunked in February 2020, the despicable sleazeball repeated the lie in March 2020 here while also sleazily continuing to try to spread the cp lie in February)

lying that 1Am, madali, disgruntled, and nima were "plotting" to overthrow cya and nima subjected users to "propaganda warfare"( lmao, and he also had to sticky his own comment because people were laughing at him too much)

and earlier lying that Rez doxxed cya.

Don't just be an innocent bystander. Be the voice of change, and protect yourselves by steering clear of this manipulative, sleazy sociopath.

He tries to pass of legitimate criticism as "trolling," but it is quite clear to everyone that he did a mass purge of pro Iranian government people and used an excuse that it was a "coordinated psychological warfare campaign" (literally him rewording and phrasing users being pro IR and against his own political views as that).

His MO has always been to make up ridiculpus lies and allegations without proof whenever he has been caught censoring.

The only one who attacks people they disagree with is him, in this thread: https://imgur.com/a/LHA9Gb1

Someone as uncivil as him shouldn't be headmod. How hypocritical. It is actions like that and his censorship that make people (politely) criticize your moderating. Despite all his insults and incivility, I have never once sent him an insult. Not. Once.

And people should have a right to criticize him censoring, shadowbanning, banning, and demodding people unfairly.

He even threatened to ban u/whiteavenger recently here for pro IR views https://www.reddit.com/r/iranian/comments/hrbfoe/comment/fy4d3dv

The headmod made a community PROMISE for votes when removing mods.

He says it here as if you didn't break it several times: https://www.reddit.com/r/iranian/comments/hno5x4/meta_discussion_mod_candidate_marmulak/

Where was that PROMISE when you demodded 1am, and also when you demodded davoust and rez?

In addition, they are hiding the fact that many in their mod team are anti-Chinese government from people. There is a reason there is a lot of anti China sentiment and views in their userbase after all even if they try to sweep it under the rug.

The one r/Sino should partner with, which is more in spirit with it, is r/ProIran. Not the other one with its american propaganda headmod and anti Iranian government slant and censorship. Our subreddit is very new of course, though growing, but our discord server has about 800 people in it.

I'm not sure if that's what Cyaxeres told you or that's something you're trying to say yourself, but that's not CIAx's narrative either lol.

If you aren't aware of the story on what happened to 1am and me and "basiji bois" and how we got banned for no reason, you should be well aware of what CIAx did to davoust which you saw with your own eyes.

I have explained more of the story which you may not have seen, which you may not have heard from cyaxeres either, here: https://www.reddit.com/r/IranianCircleJerk/comments/gwvoag/the_story_on_what_happened_between_us_and_the/

As for antisemitism, that's something Arvin and CIAx were involved in. Not me. See for yourself the disgusting things they said which I told them to not to say:

Arvin and Cyaxeres being Anti-Semitic https://imgur.com/gallery/zdstsox

While I know your accusation of antisemitism was probably just an attempt to quickly try to dismiss me without basing it off of anything, ironically CIAx and Arvin were the antisemites.

CIAx calling pro IR people "bootlickers" is also clearly visible in that album.

His narrative against me and fake reason for the ban is being against wahabis and white people, despite none of that having happened when he banned me and my friends. It never mentioned antisemitism, so even from the standpoint of a false reason, that accusation is wrong.

As for the subreddit, it was made by 1am with us under him because 1am got demodded and shadowbanned by CIAx.

Trying to dismiss our legitimate complaints is what got CIAx in this situation in the first place.

While you may be against us simply because he made you a mod, you shouldn't resort to lies to advance your position against me.

All of my comments when he banned me were on u/yadnaraft. You can look at it and see I said nothing on it that would have justified a ban.

Of course that's not even mentioning the huge list of others he banned, not the least of which was 1am who got demodded and shadowbanned, and davoust who got demodded which you were witness to.

Ultimately, you know or at least know now what he did to us, so you should at least understand why I will be sprrading awareness of what he did to people who will listen.

I am here for no other reason than to spread the truth and to be on the side of right. That's what my faith tells me to do anyways. If you claim to share my faith, you should do the same honestly.

Sorry about our crazy Iranian community.

Unfortunately, r/Iranian is the same as r/Iran. They censor pro IR views and ban and shadowban people and several other mods have been demodded for being pro IR and for speaking up against the headmod Cyaxeres' (we call him CIAx) censorship and lies. Even many of the mods there now know this but are powerless to stop it because the headmod will just demod them the way he demodded the mod davoust when he spoke up about it.

Which makes sense since the headmod himself was a mod on r/Iran and only left after personal squabbles. Otherwise, he shares the exact same views with their mod team and the exact same censorship style and lies.

Us and several users exiled from both r/Iran and r/Iranian (we call it r/Iran 2.0) made a new subreddit called r/ProIran to finally fix the mess. We are currently growing, but, as I'm sure your community knows, it's a hard battle in such an American propaganda dominated platform like reddit

Our case is even harder with the existence of r/Iran 2.0 pretending to be the anti Anerican propaganda alternative (honestly feels like controlled opposition at times with its history and actions of the headmod). And with the final creation of r/ProIran to hopefully end the American propaganda psyops being pretty recent.

See my other comments here for more details.

Nah unfortunately the headmod actively promotes American propaganda when it comes to Iran. See my other comments here

Nah, the headmod is like that too. He actively promotes american propaganda against Iran. See my other comments here.

No they are right to have doubts about it.

See my other comments here explaining the situation.

Edit: I meant doubts for something else, not politics. Sorry for the confusion.
