This country really does have a propensity for churning out brown Hitlers.
Pleased to report that absolutely nothing fishy has been going on behind the scenes here and none of this is extremely suspect. We can all rest assured this bullshit was completely above board.

After 72 days on hunger strike, Heba "knows that her death may be imminent... If she survives, she will have spent at least a year and a half in prison before her trial date - reportedly due no earlier than June this year, well beyond the UK’s usual 6-month pre-trial detention limit".

Much higher than the estimate death toll in the 2022 protests, and probably the bloodiest crackdown in the Islamic Republic's history, if you exclude the murder of political prisoners in jails in the 1980s.
"About 2,000 people including security personnel have been killed in protests in Iran, an Iranian official said on Tuesday, the first time authorities have acknowledged the high death toll from an intense crackdown on two weeks of nationwide unrest" www.reuters.com/world/china/...

#lrp Shah loyalists are scum. Extremely racist towards Afghans, Pakistanis and Indians, trafficking in pathetic delusions about how they’re actually white, simping for a monarchy in 2025, rabid Trump supporters and pro-Israel, fantasising about genociding Iran’s neighbours and so on. Total nutjobs.

Not at all surprised by violence at diaspora protests in LA, Berlin, and Toronto. The two biggest crowds at these protests are affiliated either with the monarchists or the MEK. Both spew hate speech and threats against their enemies. The Pahlavists especially specialize in rape & sex-based threats.

some coverage of the incident from a Muslim news site, which has labeled the London mosque as Iranian as opposed to Shia. this conflation is super problematic and probably to blame for the attack on a place of worship when kids were attending Saturday school
"On January 10, 2026, supporters of the Pahlavi movement, which seeks to restore Iran’s former monarchy, targeted the Islamic Centre of England, a religious establishment in London that serves a predominantly Shia Muslim community."
Ah, yes Israe-uh, Pahlavi supporters.

This is true of both English and Persian language posts by the way, perhaps even more in Persian than English. Then add in the Internet and communication outages. Any video or news sent out of Iran is done via means not accessible to the "average" Iranian. Anything you see is curated by someone.

What a source lol, also this creep's original citation (Radio Farda) has deleted the post. We've really got to be careful with sourcing on this topic as the Iranian twitter space is probably the biggest online influence operation in the world.

Heba Muraisi is on day 69 of her hunger strike.
Kamran Ahmed is on day 62 of his hunger strike.
They are at risk of dying at any moment. This is a political choice by Keir Starmer’s Labour government.
Immediate bail for remand prisoners NOW.

Note that the EU BURIED its election report and whitewashed the sham fascist elections in Pakistan.
WHY? Because the puppet government serves Western interests.
Meanwhile the most popular politician languishes in prison. Protestors are MURDERED. The EU doesn't give a damn about protests!

Any violence against peaceful demonstrators is unacceptable. Shutting down the internet while violently suppressing protests exposes a regime afraid of its own people. (2/2)

1000 days ago we woke up to my then 3 year old asking me if I could turn that horrible sound (of gunshots and explosions) off, because it’s scary. My heart goes out to everyone, especially those parenting while surviving this war in Sudan and elsewhere. May it all end inshallah. Everywhere.

If a Pakistani Muslim owned X, distributed indecent images of girls on a platform where govt do their PR, where some receive payments for posts, they would have distanced themselves by now. X would be shutdown and Braverman and Farage would be calling for a ban and investigation into Pakistani men.
