It’s been very cool & not at all insanity inducing to watch people who stayed silent during the January massacre not only become Iran experts over the last few weeks, but to speak over Iranians, and dismiss their lived experience, because it doesn’t fit their anti U.S. narrative.
⚠️ Update: Two full weeks have now passed since #Iran fell into digital darkness amid a regime-imposed internet blackout.
The public remain isolated from the outside world with only a limited domestic intranet after 336 hours while state-approved accounts get whitelisted access.
3) With @SayehY11 and others, we test Quine’s Epistemic Principle of Charity. Over two experiments, we find that people broadly update their beliefs and their assumptions about the beliefs of others in line with this principle.

In Tehran, Iran, a banner featuring the name “Toomaj” is prominently displayed on a highway. A video captures this powerful image, and the person recording it declares that Toomaj Salehi is the voice of the voiceless. Toomaj, an Iranian rapper, faces a grim fate—he has been sentenced to death for his unwavering support of the Woman, Life, Freedommovement through his music. His lyrical activism, which boldly addresses issues like corruption, poverty, and state repression, has made him a symbol of resistance. Despite the risks, Toomaj’s art continues to echo the silenced voices of those seeking change in Iran.

Last year, a coworker randomly asked me to hand-deliver an antique violin across the country. I said yes, because why not. I had no idea what I was getting into, and now I need your help. A 🧵
We ask that the Government of Canada to once and for all, list the entirety of the nefarious Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corp as a terrorist organization. We ask that the legal obstacles be dealt with and the #IRGC be put in a place where it belongs.

It’s nearly 4am in Iran.
People gathering outside Rajaishahr prison in Karaj — reports spreading that the execution of #MohammadGhobadloo & #MohammadBoroughani is imminent.

I'm not in Toronto, but my heart is with the @ps752justice hosting the 3rd year commemoration of #PS752 shot down by the Islamic regime in Iran.
Their cry for justice is the cry for justice of every parent, sibling, spouse whose loved ones were taken by this evil regime.
Health & Literacy corps was developed in late 1960’s in #Iran. If it was up to the clerics, women wouldn’t have even had the right to vote.
Literacy rate is what it is in spite of the Islamic Republic, not because of it.
🍒picking stats negates context & laws which govern women.
Iranian footballer Amir Nasr-Azadani has been sentenced to execution by the Islamic Republic for 'campaigning for women's rights'.

The photos and videos coming out of #Mahabad, a heavily-Kurdish city in Iran, are really disturbing.
We are one people. And our Kurdish brothers & sisters need us more than ever today.
Be their voice so the world hears them.

I don't know what's happening with the fire at #Evin right now. But I'll say this is a regime (a) that massacred thousands of political prisoners; and (b) whose supporters once burned down a cinema with people inside.
THEY'RE CAPABLE OF ANY EVIL.
