This is what they are. A deeply intolerant, fascistic political cult that responds to disagreement with intimidation & violence.
They are not representative of most Iranian Americans, even in their supposed "stronghold" of Los Angeles, much less of Iranians *inside* Iran.
Let’s clear it up: I sat down, they started yelling at me I asked security to ask them to stop, security asked them to stop talking to me. They did. After the game this lady came up to me blocking me from exiting, then her husband GROPED MY BOOBS, I proceeded to yell at him…
Iran left a note in SoFi Stadium's locker room thanking LA for its hospitality at the World Cup.
"From the ancient Persia of thousands of years ago to the civilized Iran of today, the spirit of Iran remains alive and steadfast."
"We came to Los Angeles with pride, competed with honor, and leave with dignity."
"May peace, respect, and friendship prevail among all nations."
The fact that no Black or latino organization, from the CBC to the NAACP, is willing to defend Darializa against this zionist/establishment harassment campaign speaks volumes about the limits of identity politics vs the power of monied interests.
Pahlavi supporters in the diaspora are out here taking out their frustrations on women.
I am disgusted by this footage. A Pahlavi supporter approaches a woman and violently swings her to the ground. There is no justification for this kind of behaviour.
That video message by @susanabulhawa shook him to his very core and flipped a switch, because the way he speaks about matters relating to Palestine now, is a complete 180 to before that major fumble he made a few months ago.
🦔Hackers stole the DNA data of 7 million 23andMe customers in a 2023 breach. The settlement pays them an average of $6.60 each. The claims administrator Kroll received $20.3 million for its work. The co-founder then bought the bankrupt company through a nonprofit, and the DNA data transferred with the sale.
My Take
$6.60 for your DNA. Kroll told each person they could receive up to $10,000 from a $48 billion claim, but the court called $6.60 reasonable because the company was broke. Kroll collected $20 million to process the claims while the 7 million people who lost their genetic data split $46 million. The system worked for everyone in this case except the people whose DNA was stolen.
And the DNA didn't disappear when the company went bankrupt. The co-founder bought it through a nonprofit and the genetic data transferred as an asset. You can change a password or cancel a credit card. You can't change your DNA, and it now belongs to an entity that none of the 7 million people ever agreed to share it with. The legal system put a price on the most personal data that exists and the price was a cup of coffee.

#BREAKING 📍Reuben Abramov - Jewish man yelling “Every fucking Palestinian will die,” while shooting a nail gun, just got off. Unbelievable. He’s not charged with uttering threats; no hate motivated offence charges either. Just a $100 victim surcharge. Can you imagine if someone was yelling “All Jews must die,” while shooting a nail gun at Jewish people. They would be in prison.
Hillel Neuer, who denies zionist influence (control) in the US, brags about destroying Francesca Albanese's ability to conduct normal daily life transactions, and how they then went after her husband too.
UK telecoms just launched a kill switch for phones stolen from retail stores.
Good. Phone theft in London is down 20% this year. The first use case is always good.
But let's look at what the UK has built in 2026.
Every device in the country is scanned for nudity by law.
Signal: ordered to build a backdoor into encryption.
Apple: sharing IMEI data with police, remotely disabling stolen iPhones globally.
Telecoms: new kill switch for retail theft, activated before a device ever reaches a customer.
Adults: must verify identity with a face scan, a passport, or a government ID to use social media.
Children: banned from disappearing messages, VPNs, livestreaming, and romantic AI.
Police: 40 facial recognition vans rolling out nationwide under a £140M AI program.
now the telecom kill switch.
each one of these individually is defensible.
curbing phone theft: yes.
protecting children online: yes.
stop terrorists using encrypted apps: yes.
verify ages to keep minors off adult platforms: yes.
The UK now has:
— a remote off switch for every phone
— a real identity tied to every social media account
— a scanner on every device
— facial recognition on every high street
— A backdoor is requested into every encrypted message
built piece by piece. justified one news cycle at a time.
What do you call it when you put all of them together?
Toni McBride (below), is an LAPD cop who killed Daniel Hernandez in mental health crisis in 2018. Her sister Jacqueline McBride, LAPD cop, just killed a woman in Rampart. They are the 2 killer daughters of cop union mafia boss Jamie McBride who himself was involved in 6 shootings
didn’t cry when he watched palestinian children get bombed, or when he proscribed people trying to stop the bombing, or when he jailed the people who support those attempting to stop the bombing.
Starmer cried when he was forced to resign, but didn’t shed a tear for the thousands of children who were killed in the genocide in Gaza which he backed.
That’s who he is.
My problem isn’t with black peoples wanting to be more transactional in their relationship with the Democratic Party (which we should be). My problem is that these people have no coherent plan, agenda, or ideology other than black capitalism and black faces in high places.
