Seriously dude, i hope Iran can develop into a thriving society as it was back in the days when you still had a thriving monarchy..

We can only hope. Power to the Iranian people! Power to the Iranian women!

Ur not supporting iranian ppl, you r happy that there is communal dispute in iran 🤡
good dream
I met a lot of people from iran over the past years and one thing i saw in most of them was their desire for a free and progressive country. Best of luck to them all and stay safe!
Unfortunately, there is an almost unlimited number of country bumpkins who disagree :(
All they have to do is find out if there are tiny political parties like Responsible Future in Iceland which support democracy.
They want to be free from the united snakes of america

Gratitude 🙏💙
@Ho Lii Fuk man you are naive, If regime change happens in Iran it will either start out as another authoritarian regime or become one in a few years
You do realize this is a US backed coup. And it has so far failed!
My dad tells me stories of when he used to go to Iran before the revolution happened. He went with my grandfather by car, which was a 6-8 day drive without proper airconditioning. They also went to Turkey and Egypt to buy carpets cheaply and then sell them back home and by doing so my grandfather could travel whilst making a small profit.
In Iran my dad met a woman with whom he kept in touch by sending letters. He was 21 when the revolution happened and got to experience it through the letters that woman wrote.
Let's hope the people of Iran can get the power to free themselves from the vile and oppressive regime that currently rules the country.
If i may, could that woman perhaps be your....?
May I ask, where did they drive from?
@@andrijherasymenko Belgium.
@@ReySchultz121 No. As time went on they stopped sending letters.
@@ewoudalliet1734 Oh, wow. That's a long way.
The morality police...Pretty sure murder is immoral.
They should look into that.
Nothing like religion to justify horrible things
@Zaydan Naufal is his death correlated with religion? It's more on racial related case. Invalid comparison. It's like comparing apples to oranges LMFAO nice try
Pretty sure Floyd thing was also horrible tragedy that sparked justified protests. Like- two wrongs don’t make a right.
You all must watch the full video of Floyd asking to be let out of the police car and put on the ground, oh and he had x4 (?) the lethal limit of fentanyl in his system , look up how lethal that drug alone can be
@Zaydan Naufal whattaboutism is for when people with the mental capacity of a child have no reasonable argument
I’m Indonesian. And here we dreaded that our country could also be stuck in the state meddling with on how individual should practice religion. Hopefully Indonesia wont be like some countries in the middle east, it will be nearly impossible to make u turn once religious policing is legitimized and institutionalized. Once it does, only conflict through violence is the only way, sadly, for religious rezime to relinquish their hold to absolute power.
@Zaydan Naufal about km 50 is rather ironic, because it involed a would be moral policing group that hide behind religious shroud/symbol only to be specialy treated. But other cases that are mention is different, and should be noted km 50 could not be gaslighted to be on par with sambo or the stadion thingy
In so many Islamic countries, the religion always get mixed with politics.
Kemalism is the only way out.
@@tiggerchen3 well, if those kadruns tried to seize the government, our military will crush them like how Egypt did to Rabaa protesters in 2013
Unfortunately I have to agree with you-am wondering what the ultra beards in Saudi will do when,in their reactionary opinion,MBS goes too far with his (semi and selective)liberalization process.
Islam is the culprit , it wil screw every life
As a Kuwaiti, I hope Iran gets the change they need and deserve.
Edit: Tfw, I can't support my fellow Middle Easterners without being pestered by Westoids and Persian Supremacists.
So they can pump oil for BP lol and become a vassal state like Kuwait
What they need is a reversal of the Islamic revolution.
*Yamen*
It is always such a stuggle for the people to get changes for the better anywhere in the Near East.
@@dfwdfw9544 yeah like when Egypt revolted against the Dictator Mubarak and had installed their first democratically elected president... Who was later removed by the CIA and replaced with General Sisi the head of the army and promptly executed. Obama, Cameron and the west welcomed Sisi the new unelected authoritarian and ignored the will of Egyptians.
As an Iranian living in Iran, I can confirm that the video is accurate, but the title is somehow misleading. you described the situation and its history pretty well. But the video is not represented by its title.
I think the quote "tells you what to do, what to think, and how to feel" captures what the people want freedom from.
I wouldn't say it would collapse right away, but it's definitely starting to show cracks. Every time there's a bad event you can see further determination and desire. This is merely a step towards eventual downfall
Well this regime has collapsed. It has totally collapsed and all it has to do is admit it.
Well this regime has already collapsed. All it has to do is accept it.
I think you should be more concerned about your own collapse dear baaaaaa
nah..they just change or abolish the morale police..lots of religious country have make away with that as they become toward secularism
@@druegnor1703 that's not how iran works. First of all morality police is just one of the several reasons behind the protest. Second of all the whole reason the current regime is in power is their ultra savage version of Islam, if they back down even one step they won't survive.
Iran is such a beautiful country with beautiful people (inside and out) and rich history. I wish from the bottom of my heart that they find freedom soon. Much love from Brazil

Nothing is going to change in Iran until protesters go full Robespierre. Otherwise, the protests are just going to run out of steam as protesters are faced with the struggle of everyday survival, which is harsher in Iran than we might imagine in the West.
Unfortunately your right.....If they want regime change they will probably get it through violence and more lives will be at stake
Even if it fails (although I dread at the thought) I think it wouldn't be the last protest. Progressive standards will keep leaking into the minds of younger generations until a new boiling point comes up because their government isn't as pervasive in their everyday life like China.
Ethnical, political, war conflicts are what usually distract the unhappy population but in times of peace you can't keep people from asking better for themselves.
Well the 1979 Revolution is a bit of a misnomer. The Revolution began in February 1978 and ended in January 1979. Revolutions take a long time to build up steam, so this Women’s Revolution might take months, but what is clear is that people have been pushed too far, especially the youth, and they are willing to die for change. That’s a dangerous precedent for any regime, and I imagine as crackdowns ramp up, so will the tactics of protesters.
You do remember what happened to Robespierre don't you? Not to mention what happened to France afterwards? Revolutions are only supported by people who know very little about them
@@AeneasGemini Revolution is a very risky option and not ideal, but if you’re living in a dictatorship with no hope of change, then it really is the only chance to get any sort of change going. Iran isn’t going to get better through moderate reform, that’s for sure, and you can’t get much worse than a religious theocracy
We can hope and pray. Irainians, as a whole, are good decent people and deserve their freedom.
5:11 "He implemented an ultra conservative and deeply sexist VERSION of Sharia Law" There is no "versions" of sharia law. There is no "liberal, democratic" version of Sharia Law. When you say it like that you imply that there is actually an acceptable version of Sharia law... Its like saying "a conservative and sexist version of Bible law"
Biblical law has actually changed across history. Particularly in Judaism which had a Written and Oral Bible for the very reason of being able to update it over time. Judaism is actually a Matrilineal (the religion and culture is decided by the mother) culture because a High Priest of Judea thought that the former Patrilineal tradition was unfair to rape victims. So he changed it in the 1st century BCE. Judaism is much harder to change today since the Oral Torah was written down in the 2nd century CE, but it still does change which is why you have different denominations today.
@@mattbenz99 ok what’s this gotta do with governments that should be secular but are not? We aren’t going to have a state led by these dictions.
@@CrocodileWhispers
I was just pointing out that not all religious laws are static. Islam is notoriously harsh and unchanging, but not all of them are.
Hey British guy, don’t forget about Britain’s involvement in the Iranian coup in the 50s! It isn’t all about America. You guys did a bang up job too!
Yeh, the UK F,cked up too.
So you are proud of crimes committed by your ancestors
I will suggest Germans to do the same
The reason why the US gets all the heat for the 1953 coup is because our government actually released the information to the people - whereas the Brits are cagey AF about what they do in 21st century, let alone the 20th.
Hes has to be very quiet about that dont want to discredit himself
The US was the main backer of the coup, and the article shown alongside also mentions the UK as a secondary supporter. It's a bit of a mute point. 1:54
Persians are more liberal than Arabs and they deserve a government who isn't controlled by mullahs , full support to woman of iran

@@johayrmacatanong6231 I don't think we can say "only fundamentalists put Ayatollah in power", the revolution occurred because Iranian were tired of his regime and thought that Ayatollahs are better choice. Now tides have turned and I hope Iran becomes a safe place for all kinds of people

I am living in Iran and i really appreciate how accurate this video is.
My neighbor is from Iran. His family is amazing and he is one of the best guys I've ever met. He said the only holiday he celebrates is the 4th of July, because his freedom is so important to him and his family.
Americans; separate in your mind the Iranian people from the Savage 6th century moral throwbacks in charge. The zoomer tik tok generation has had enough of their parents and grandparents nonsense. Its global, and needs to be supported everywhere.
The protesters need more support from the west, but unfortunately Biden and the Democrats still want to strike a 'deal' with the Islamofascist regime that brutalizes its own people.
However the overwhelming majority support Islam and its why the nuts got in charge. Once you get so brainwashed with the religious fanaticism its nearly impossible to free yourself. The region has a history of progressive civilizations destroyed by religious revivals. Religion is a cancer.
Bruh! u stupid to judge entire country by one neighbour....outside Tehran, Iran is as orthodox as pakistan....this protest aint gonna do any regime change.
Their parents were the greatest victims of the regime. Don’t blame the victims.
It's good he left as he couldn't obey the laws of the land.
I am still keeping this as "Would be nice cathegory" - right now luckily Vlad Putler doesnt have his "Regime carservice" for dictators capacity operational. so there is a chance.
this carservice is run by China, Russia is just one of its puppets now. its not like it used to be in the cold war era when it was more like the other way around and definitely not as pronounced as now. Iran switching sides from dictatorships to (relative) freedom would have been nice though, that is true
Who let this Redditor out of its cage?
1:54 legit happy to see this mentioned. Most channels wouldn't have the guts to point out the US's past coups. Good job guys
Bollocks. That the Shah was CIA-backed is universally known. And I'm more than OK with that in the context of the era and region - the early 1950s near the borders of the USSR. Lots of the people who were "shocked" by the CIA coup would have been perfectly OK with a post-Stalinist dictatorship there. Of course, people DO forget that the CIA helped Khomeini round up Iranian communists before it became obvious the Iranian revolution was getting out of their control.
He mentions the coup against Mossadeq, the prime minister at the time who didn't get along that well with the Shah. It has so little to do with the revolution 20 years after the coup. And whether most channels mention it or not, it's almost common knowledge among Iranians that such a convenient coup wouldn't happen all on its own without the help of a certain American intelligent agency, and one of our own at the time, Savak.
@@marknewkirk4322 I'm no political historian so I'm not gonna argue with you. I just find it interesting that the US backed about 80+ coups in the past (confirmed coups, God knows what the real number is)
@@copacelu93 Good for them.
US coups are widely known and you can freely talk about it just because you see people talking about it on your instagram or tiktok feeds doesn’t mean you’re gonna trouble
Reza Shah Pahlavi was the first Pahlavi monarch, he was forced to abdicate by the British and Americans during WW2. His son was Mohammad Reza Pahlavi was the Shah overthrown in the revolution and he was only empowered after the coup since he had reigned since his father's abdication
@Zaydan Naufal well the word Pahlavi comes from the middle persian language. And Reza Sr didnt have this name until he became the monarch. This was as a way in order to solidify his image as a nationalist
The last Shah was a figurehead until the USA wanted to control the oil and staged a coup in 1953... then it's all downward from there
it was the british and the soviets if i remember correctly
Fusk the Shah, dude.
He was the whole reason why fundamentalists could gather support in the first place.
Secular authoritarian regimes are just as brutal as religious ones. And the Shah was no exception.
Mohammad Reza Pahlavi was not as admired or competent as his father.
Best of luck to our compatriots that they may resolve these issues without collapsing. 🇦🇲🤝🇮🇷
Iranian government must collapse, Iranians do not want religious government!!

Without their militaries support I doubt there would be any measurable change.
And they know for a fact any other govt would immediately capitulate to the US, UK and Israel and BP would be back in the country
@@skp8748 That's the thing I think people are not discussing. If regime change in Iran means becoming pro-US, a lot of people inside and outside Iran will fight against change because of the geopolitical implications.
I think the military might support them (they're at least somewhat secular), it's the Revolutionary Guard and their fanaticism who are the biggest problem
@@SrCoxas As long as Iran can do a regime change while able to walk on the thin line between falling into US/Russia/China then everything should be okay.
The military better get busy doing all the civilian jobs then.
Thing is the an iranian revolution could be either the best or the worst thing - If a functioning democracy is created then it would be great for them and most of everyone else , but a power vacuum may just lead to even more problems in the Middle East
Plus the fact that the current government came to power through a revolution against the previous dictator.
Most revolutionaries become the very thing they initially overthrow
Those are good points
Iran has few radical groups or internal conflicts (unlike other middle Eastern nations) which would make it more likely to be stable than their neighbours. The conflicts that could brew up would be separatist groups at most.
Of course there can be worse situations but can’t really think of any government worse (for its own people or most countries) then what Iran currently has.
Let's not forget that this very government did rise up thanks to a revolution
You guys did it again... another great assessment of the situation in Iran.
Thank you for putting some spotlight on Iran.
People don't realize or remember that prior to the revolution Tehran was an extremely well educated and cosmopolitan city. It was a fashion capital of the world along side Paris, New York, and London. There was a long tradition of western lifestyle. This generation would know nothing of this but there are plenty of people around who do and have communicated this to this generation, who thanks to the internet, can see all the things they are missing, and now want to have.
Yeah, I remember my dad saying something similar.
It was ruled by a western dictator and the people hated the western values so they overthrow him.Iranian were conservative toward liberal policies and were far left leaning people.If this revoltuion wins we might see a far left government take power.
It's still quite well-educated and cosmopolitan... just in a secretive way, without its past freedom.
I have a few friends who grew up in Iran, and it's so important to communicate to people - the younger generations of Iranians are NOT like the older. Obviously this can be said of most places, but like, it's SO different! The protests only shine a light on how much.
The younger and older generations are from different planets! That’s why all these pundits throughout the West have been so wrong about Iran - our governments have been operating off of old information and old prejudices.
I think this is very unfair to the older generation whose youth was absolutely destroyed and just tried to get by under war and tyranny.
@@parsahasselhoff7986 yeah, there’s even a nickname for Iranian Gen Xers: the “Burnt Generation”
“Morality police” is a horrifying idea :/

A popular restaurant in our town is run by an Iranian family. It's mostly the sons now but it was the parents when it opened and they are from rural Iran and deeply religious. They fled in '79 because they knew exactly what kind of a shit show the country was going to become.... and they were right,
They are not hopeful at this time. The apparatus of repression runs wide and deep in Iran, the institutions of the state are very powerful and were set up to combat this very scenario. The IRGC, which is NOT part of the country's military and does NOT answer to the government, regularly trains for it.
Also, there is no obvious successor to the regime because none has ever been given a chance to take root. They fear that this series of protests will just lead to another massacre or if there is some change to the regime, it will be something even worse which takes over.

I'm an iranian who lives abroad and from what I know the protests have only grown since they started. If you don't know in iran the weekday start from Saturdays and this Saturday would mark the 6th week of the protests. People aren't going to work. Students aren't going to school. Instead everyday they take to the streets and start the protests which are usually extremely large in Saturdays and Wednesdays. Honestly I'm proud to see how persistent my people are. Also words cannot express how much relief I feel when I see how exhausted the police forces are.

This video isn't very good. Iran doesn't have a "fragile economy". It's economy is extremely strong precisely because of sanctions, which have forced the Iranian society to adapt its economic policies. Right now, Iran has an almost bulletproof economy, and if by some miracle the international community decides to include Iran into markets, Iran can easily become one of the strongest economy like China or America and stronger than England or Germany.
North Atlantic Terrorist Organization won't ever allow that to happen.
This ISN'T Islam is the phrase I often hear expressed but NOT one single Muslim country has criticised or condemned something that 'ISN'T' Islam

Persia/Iran has a millennial culture, rich in literature, music, arts. The language is beautiful just like its people.
I hope the time will come soon when it finally allows Kurds their own autonomous state and reorganises into a modern, developed society where men and women are equal and equally free, a country that will contribute to the whole world.
@Zaydan Naufal there are no prejudices against kurds. however, there is pkk terror which lead to this stance. no country would like it if one part of its people commit terror.
The term "ultra-conservative" is not appropriate because the Ayatollahs are nor conserving anything that existed in the past. They are radical revolutionaries that are promoting a political Islam that never existed in Persia/Iran in the past.

@@peace5512 as an iranian I can easily say that more than 80% of the country does not belive in Islam
It is sad, but I don't think that democracy will come out of this protest, any protest or revolution. I mean. Iran is a colonial empire and if democracy arises, the country will explode. Indeed Azeris, Kurds Arabs etc, are big minorities and Persians constitute barely half of the country's population. Forces in the periphery will be to strong to keep the country together. Most of the protests are in the peripheric areas, or they are of a much more important level there. So most of Persians won't support a democratic regime. True, the Islamic regime may fall, but the next one will probably be authoritarian as well.
I hope I'm wrong.
This is exactly the same with Russia and China.
Another thing to mention is the rising food prices and general cost of living which is causing unrest in Pakistan, Sri Lanka and India among others this will surely impact Iran too (probably is tbh). Also, a Swedish MEP cut her hear and said Women, Life, Freedom in the European parliament a few days ago which will raise awareness directly to governments and could see the children of Iranian leaders targeted with aggressive sanctions which could pressure them to do something.
Iranians have been dying from COVID (the government refused to give people working vaccines like Pfizer), and have been starving long before Putin’s invasion of Ukraine.
In other words: Iranians were fed up long before 2022, but things are escalating now that people feel they have nothing to lose but their lives.
@@MaryamofShomal Damn I didnt know that. But yeah the Islamic republic is doomed. It will not last the decade
There's really nothing of that sort in India. Sure there are people with problems but it isn't aggravated due to recent supply chain shortages.
@@vignesh1065 Yeah I know its nowhere near bad.
If you have to enforce Social Norms, then they aren't Norms anymore.
And if you have to KILL in order to gain compliance: your regime won’t last long. This terrorist regime is cracking, bet.
That's a huge triumph for Iranian!
You guys are incredible!! 🥰
Very well explained video keep up the good work !
Several things to add:
1) on the revolution, it’s not necessarily that Islamist where an anti imperialist force (although yes in Iran it did have some impact) but mainly it was an opposition between authoritarian regimes in the Middle East, may they be pro US or pro soviet, many of them where staunchly secular by wanting to westernize. The problem was is that these regimes where maybe a bit to radical in their secular reforms, hence the conservative reaction. Islamists in Iran in 1979 during the revolution, where sort of like the bolcheviks in 1917. They weren’t necessarily the biggest faction,even among the opposition, but they were the most structured and determined force.
2) about the Mahsa affair. What needs to be known about it, is that in places like Teheran women have never completely respected the clothing rules. They dress very elegantly and put on the veil in such that you practically 80% of their hair. What really pissed people off with the mahsa affair, is that when look at the images she dressed 10 x more « soberly » (by the regime ´s standard)than most Iranian women. If the morality police was as strict with Iranians as they were with Mahsa, they would basically have to put all Iranian women into custody. But since the morality « police » targets at random, this pisses even some more conservative Iranian, who don’t understand the arbitrary Element of it. That’s why you even have demonstrations in normally more conservative areas of the country. (plus a racial element with Mahasa being kurdish)
3) to understand why the Iranian feminist movement is so powerful, it’s because Iranian women are extremely well educated by middle eastern standard and are practically at western standards. Surpisingly, Khameini did keep some of the bargain stated at 5:00 . 60% of university student are women, and women can have access to some high education jobs. It may seem like a paradox, but the social conservative laws on women actually seem to have helped iranian women to get higher education. Indeed, conservative parents where more comfortable sending their daughters to university knowing that they would stay in socially conservative norms even at universtity. The sort of "social contract" of the regime had with women is that they allow women education and economic opportunities, but on the other hand have super strict social norms for women (like the morality) and practically zero political power.
4) 5:35 TLDR should know better to make a distinction between totalitarian and authoritarian regime. This is pretty important here to also understand how the Ayatollah regime lasted so long but why recently it is cracking. Unlike other authoritarian regimes like regime, the regime does have a partial. Sure, the Ayatollah and the clerics still hold a lot of power and can veto candidates they don't like. But unlike Russia, there was until recently some form of democratic competition, between the conservatives and the moderates. This "democratic" aspect is pretty central for the legimitity of the regime. Since elections where somewhat competitive, Iranians participation used to be pretty high (around 60%). However, in the last presidential election, the clerics where extremely strict in their candidate vetting and only allowed ultra conservatives to run. This lead to a historically low turnout, going down from 60 to 48%. This move by the conservative probably significantly weakened the "democratic" legitimity of the regime.
All good, valid points
Iranians are highly cultured people who value education - unlike many of their neighbours. It was unlikely that they would have accepted this kind of rule forever...they're not puppets...they think about their situation and they consider what is wrong in their society. I have every respect for them as people, but the government should not have expected an easy ride, knowing their questioning nature and intellectual outlook on life
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Their culture is inferior to their neighbors tho
Not near as old or complex as Semites or Egyptians nor as influential as they are that’s fpr sure
@@someone-wi4xl I sincerely hope you're not referring to Israel when you discuss Semites...the land now known as Israel may have been significant culturally historically, but is now dominated by settlers, the lowest and least sophisticated life forms imaginable...in addition, it's worth remembering that the reason the US is courting Iran at this time is that it needs its influence over a number of groups in the region - something the 'Jewish state' lacks, primarily because its universally despised by its neighbours for good reason - although US sweeteners have provided the illusion of a 'peace' accord of sorts.
As a Persian, please don't disrespect our neighbors... we have all gone through tough times. Thank you for your support 🙏 🙌
@@darhaha3391 Sadly your neighbours have disrespected you for far too long - and use their influence over the US to destroy your people and deny them the right to exist
Iran has so much potential to create a good life for its people, both with regard to natural resources, but also in human capital.
All they have to do is become a western puppet state controlled by US right?
@@ABanRocks No, why? Does a country need to be a puppet of the US in order to treat its people properly? And if that is the _only_ way a state can treat its people with some dignity, then isn’t that preferable to what they have now?
It may already be close to outright collapse. Could separatists movements ignite inside Iran's breakaway regions e.g. South Azerbaijan, East Kurdistan, Khuzestan, West Balochistan etc.?
Doubt it. East kurdistan and West balochistan have other countries with a vested interest in making sure these countries do not attain independence, and the rest would be too weak to defeat whatever government takes power in Tehran.
What we want is freedom for Iran. Thank you for supporting.🙏🌅❤️🌹
Maybe the UK should worry about the UK internal issues?
Says the guy from the country which has received billions of dollars worth of advanced weapons and financial help from the UK, the US, Europe and other countries... sure, buddy, now is the time to complain about countries "meddling in other people's affairs."
I hope it does
Iranian women are one of the LARGEST martial arts demographic group. That being said, they can deliver a swift kick as well as a protest.
As an iranian this movement is more intellectual revolution than being just a economic protest against a system than not represents irans majority way of living.
As a person who is part iranian who lives in New Zealand, we also have protests out here in the government city. and New Zealand is a small country with a small GDP. I appreciate the support the protests are showing, but like, what are we gonna do?! we have ZERO leverage over iran, and we are really poor and small.Maybe go protest in the USA if you can? they might be able to do something about it!!
Long live the Islamic regime of Iran. The Ayatollah endures
I hope the Iranian people succeed and achieve their liberation
They are already liberated. Western sanctions and western funded Liberal movements are the real problem
Murder is one of the gravest sins in Islam. Allah says in the Quran that if a person kills someone, it is as if he has killed all humanity and whoever kills a believer intentionally, his recompense is Hell wherein shall he abide forever. Allah does not forgive murders. The real, true Iranian people deserve better leadership as opposed to the one that seeks to hide behind and support murders.
Karly boy, do you want me to start quoting savage lines in quran about infidels?
thanks for supporting Iranian people
When Iran collapses, it's the turn to people from Arabia for demanding for democracy as well as Iranians did
Austin I'm not sure if it was just how you pronounce Khamenei, or if you actually meant the late Ayatollah. But it was confusing
I've noticed all English speaker have a tough time with pronouncing those two names in two distinct ways, the two always seem to blend together when English speakers say them.
Power to these women ✊
@Jeremy Rogers Don't be jealous Jeremy.
@Jeremy Rogers you support Islamic oppression then I see
@Jeremy Rogers god blles your mom
The iranian people are slaying right now 😌💅
Short answer:No. Long answer:Nooooo! They actually have an actual army to support themselves.
If the army breaks rank…
@@dkupke the army is literally called guardians of Islamic republic. They are hated by everyone, they have no choice but to fight to death
So they are gonna put tanks on the street or bomb their own cities?
me watching this as an iranian citizen 💀
Excelent video, thank you. (Just don't refer to the Iranian regime as "totalitarian", it's an authoritarian regime, different thing)
How is it just an authoritarian regime “Eric”?
@@brandony.1824 not "just". It's not a difference in gradation but in substance. Totalitarianism, though it has several formulations, is apolitical. It's tyranny of a kind that demobilizes people by reducing to automatic or customary functions the range of possible actions available to them. Authoritarianism is the prevalence of a structure of domination which maintains obedience and discipline by referencing alleged universal purposes beyond political institutions. God and religion being the best examples, but either tradition or, more controversially, Reason (w capital R) are also possible points of reference. The Iranian regime would be better characterized as an authoritarian regime because of the centrality of religious authority. It is still a political regime, with laws, procedures and institutions, votes and courts. But since the reference to religious tradition, which organizes and justifies ruling, is a cultural artifact, it may weaken and the regime may decay, eventually transforming from within and without.
Islamic Republic of Iran ❤️
Zan ! Azadi ! Zendegi !
❤❤
❤❤❤❤
Power to Iranian people, let's hope you get freedom you deserve and become American puppet state again 🇺🇲❤️🇮🇷
Thanks but no thanks. Power to the blacks and mexicans. May they replace the white boiiis
An someone from Afghanistan its what we dream about, but it would probably be the biggest surprise in history. They have had 40 years to prepare for times like these, they are not going to fall easily. When it collapses, it will be a joyous moment for the people of Afghanistan too, because one of the reasons why the Taliban are in power is because of the Iranian government support.
I have a good feeling generation Z are going to change this world for the better....much better.
