دنیایی که توش کوشیار با نهایت ۴ میلیون ریز کردن واسه استارتاپش تو عرض ۴ سال بین ایرانیها شهرت پیدا میکنه، درحالیکه کیانا احسانی با این سن کمش یه استارتاپ میزنه که ۵۰ میلیون ریز میکنه و انتروپیک اکوآیرش میکنه و خیلی ایرانیها اصن نمیشناسنش دنیای عجیبیه!
After everything the Iranians inside the country and the diaspora have gone through in recent months and years, there is understandably a lot of consternation about the diplomacy now underway in Islamabad and what it means for the preservation of the Islamic Republic.
The lesson of the last two decades is that ordinary Iranians cannot live the lives they deserve without a transformative change in U.S.-Iran relations. If such a change can be achieved today, without further destruction and loss of life, the opportunity must be seized. This is an imperative even if the leaders negotiating the deal, on both sides of the table, have often failed to uphold the decorum of their offices and lack clear mandates from their electorates.
I firmly believe that Iran needs to experience fundamental political change. Ordinary Iranians have been failed by a political class unwilling or unable to ensure security, provide prosperity, deliver equality, and safeguard basic civil liberties. The political project of the Islamic Republic has failed.
However, in the face of this failure, Iranians have been persistent in their political activism and social organization. They have pushed back against state repression and economic deprivation to preserve spaces for self-expression and innovation and community to a degree rarely seen in the Middle East.
There are amazing things happening in Iran each day that speak to the resilience of ordinary people and their incredible capacity to imagine and realize better conditions for themselves and their communities. Each of the forty days of the war, we learned about a new person, or initiative, or place that represented the best of Iran and we also learned about how the war was threatening or destroying those sources of positivity: a schoolchild, an artist, a small business, a historic palace, a steel factory, a bridge, a medical institute etc.
If the talks now taking place in Islamabad can remove just some of the obstacles that have slowed the progress of the Iranian people in creating a more just and prosperous society, than diplomacy deserves our support.
Iranians cannot reasonably achieve their political aspirations if they are forced to live in a country traumatized and damaged by repeated wars. They will likewise struggle to pushback against authoritarian forces if their leaders remain completely unaccountable to the international community and especially the United States. Isolation breeds despotism. Insecurity breeds repression. Antagonism breeds paranoia. This is the lesson of 47 years.
The kind of diplomatic agreement that is being discussed right now could profoundly shift Iran's trajectory in political and economic terms. This would have an inherently positive impact on Iranian society precisely because the social fabric of Iran, although worn and tattered by so many years of internal repression and external pressures, remains that of a country in which people remain able to imagine and pursue their personal fulfillment so long as they are provided just a modicum of stability, support, and freedom.
Even in the difficult circumstances of the Islamic Republic people have managed to find dignity in their work and meaning in their social relations. But too few people are being provided such opportunities today. A diplomatic agreement that could improve economic welfare and reduce the isolation of the Iranian people is inherently worthy for it would mean more Iranians can access the stability, support, and space they need to lead fulfilling lives.
There is no promise that the talks will succeed. But there is no shame in hoping. Hope has gotten us this far.
Iran has been offline for the entire month of March 2026!!
The WHOLE MONTH of March, the ENTIRE COUNTRY has been offline.
In the middle of a war...

The Iranian protests across the world this weekend have been incredible. I'm amazed at how orderly and kind the people are.
Iranians are incredible people
همه منتظر حملهایم. انگار سناریو از قبل چیده شده که در حمله بعدی کسی مهاجم رو دشمن ندونه.
وسط این بازی، من فقط برای هزاران جون پرپرشده گریه میکنم... 😔💔
۲/۲
هنوز ماجرا رو کامل نمیفهمم، ولی اینا رو کنار هم بذاریم:
۱. مردم بعد تکنرخی شدن ارز ریختن بیرون
۲. فراخوان شاهزاده
۳. پومپئو: سال نو مبارک به هر ایرانی در خیابانها. همچنین به هر مامور موساد که در کنارشان قدم میزنه
۴. رژیم علنی جنایت کرد و به نمایش گذاشت
نتیجه؟
۱/۲
24 hours.
80 million people.
No Internet.
This is not a technical issue.
This is how a regime kills in the dark.
Share this. Speak for them. Pressure leaders to act. Now.

Hey @Apple
Iran is in a total communications blackout. Internet, mobile networks, and landlines are down. Millions are completely cut off from the world.
During this nationwide blackout, the brutal killing of civilians has started in the past 24 hours.
We urgently call on Apple to enable Satellite Messaging for users inside Iran, or confirm whether the service is already active and functioning without interference.
Communication is a lifeline. Lives depend on it.
