> I despise the Iranian government lol.

This must be satire.

> Do you have a source for these counter protests being organized and dictated by IRGC?

Do you have any source there were organic protest in support of the regime other than IRGC media? You see why people don’t buy it?

Lol the state sponsored protests don’t really buy you the legitimacy you think they do.

According to Iranian state TV there’s been a protest in support of the government.

The fact that you are so certain of it, shows that during the total blackout you have some information from inside that normal people don’t? How do you have this information? It’s getting very interesting.

You’re pulling a fast one there. Pictures and videos are getting out showing what security forces are/were doing. You are claiming it’s all propaganda and we should not believe our eyes and also forget our past experiences with this and all theocratic regimes.

Buddy the burden of proof is on you.

Source: trust me bro.

Usually these deflections mean that the IRGC has indeed killed 3 year olds. Thanks for confirming it.

Tomorrow when Islamic Republic falls, people will get their hands on the list of every one the registrar has funded and sent overseas. A day of judgment will come for all the innocents.

The death toll and the pictures and videos that are coming out that these people don’t even dare taking their usual positions and try to just mitigate it. It’s that bad.

Once again translating and posting Iranian state TV propaganda. At least give it a personal touch.

For anyone who’s reading this, I speak Persian. If you translate the Iranian state media propaganda, it’s basically the same. That should tell you everything you need to know about the credibility of such comments.

> After Israel bombed Iran last year, there were a few Israeli cells that were uncovered in Iran, so suggesting there is some foreign intervention isn't out of the ordinary.

What a leap of logic. I’d wager not being able to afford basic necessities and also your women being killed by morality police, not having any political freedom, not being able to decide how your government is run, etc. are enough incentives. Don’t you think the people there have enough agency to want all of these? If Israel wanted to intervene, it looks like Iranian government is doing their work for them by making Iran a living hell for its people.

Yeah, no thanks! The current regime is all about spirituality, prophecies and magic and look where that got us. We don't need anymore of that. I hope you're right and the regime is gone for good this time, but we need rationality, pragmatism, democracy, science, good education and economic policies, modern government and the rest of the obvious things we should have that a well developed nation needs.

> when it does not succeed

Iranian here. I think we've been successful! After the Woman Life Freedom movement, there's a noticeable change on how government enforces hijab rules! Not because they don't want to force hijab and their religion on us, but because they know they can't do it like that anymore. They are scared! That's a big win in my book. I know it might not seem much but I believe it is! No big change happens in one day. I think what you refer to, is the "last" protest/movement before everything falls apart.

If you've been born into these freedoms that we're fighting so hard for, you've been through this process before; by your ancestors. It's hard to appreciate how difficult it is to achieve the smallest of wins. You're not ignorant, it's just difficult to comprehend if you're not in the midst of it.

I also think this should serve as a warning to people whose freedoms are being eroded in western world right now. If you loose them for good, This is the process for getting them back and this is the price you'll have to pay.
