“Mom, they are killing me alive.” That’s not a line from a movie. That’s a real message from an Iranian dentist whose biggest crime was… treating wounded protesters. His name is Sobhan Esmaeildoost. 36 years old. Father. Dentist and now a political prisoner and they changed him with “threat to national security,” because during protests in Lahijan, he helped the injured. On February 11, Iranian media aired a “confession.” We all know the kind, where the guy looks like he hasn’t slept, hasn’t seen a lawyer, and suddenly remembers committing crimes he didn’t even know existed. He called his mother and said: “They are killing me alive.” His mom decided to be his voice, but they arrested his mother too. And we’re supposed to call this… law? Please join us to save his life.

Authorities in Iran forced them to confess and then charged them with “enmity against God” to fast-track their execution. This Iranian woman forced into confession, denied medical care. Her name is Venus Hosseini-Nejad, 28, a member of Iran’s persecuted Baha’i community and she was arrested in Kerman by the IRGC, according to her family. Weeks later, state media aired a so-called confession. Venus told her family it was forced. She was pressured and promised freedom within three days. That promise was a lie basically to make her to confess against herself. A vulnerable woman, under pressure, denied treatment, forced to confess on state television and I invite all of you to join us Iranians to save the lives of these innocent prisoners. In the middle of a war, the regime has launched its own war against unarmed people. They need our voice. #StopExecutionInIran

This woman said: My ex husband left me in the middle of the ocean. We were diving in San Maarten and he left me and swam back to the boat and convinced them I was on the boat. We were exploring a shipwreck and I turned around to find him and he was gone. Came up to the surface, no boat, no land, nothing. I had a compass on my gear so I started swimming. Eventually came upon a catamaran and they took me back to port.

Watch this video! 𝗧𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗶𝘀 𝗮 𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗰𝗲𝗱 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗳𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻. You can hear it in his voice, breaking, begging, repeating words they’ve pushed into him 😭😭😭 He doesn’t even know what “moharebeh” means. He has to ask. And they answer him with one word: execution. Every time he says “I was wrong”… it burns. He is 18😭😭🥺🥺 Be his voice! #ShervinBagherian #DigitalBlackOutIran#KingRezaPahlavi‌ForIran

He is only 18 #ShervinBagherian 💔 At an age where others dream about their future, Shervin is facing execution. No fair trial. No lawyer. Only a forced confession under torture. His family is under pressure. His mother is in critical condition. This is how they build a death sentence. Say his name. Because silence is the rope around his neck. 🕊️ #DigitalBlackOutIran#KingRezaPahlavi‌ForIran

@Stopworkplacebu Finally someone who is stating this! I have always found it difficult to believe when people just universally recommend using ‘grey rock’ as a tool to deal with (narcissistic) abusers! It doesn’t hold with these kind of perpetrators….🤷🏻‍♀️

Contrary to popular belief, simply ignoring a bully does not usually encourage them to stop what they're doing. As a matter of fact, adult bullies of all types often view being ignored as a sign of weakness, and it encourages them to keep going. betterhelp.com/advice/bullyin…

@RupertLowe10 How dare you calling all these women and children LIARS! It’s extremely rare that there are false accusations of abuse whereas domestic and child sexual abuse by men is EXTREMELY COMMON! Give your head a wobble, please! 🤷🏻‍♀️

The family court system is built on the sad idea that fathers are less essential than mothers in the raising of children - that is wrong, and a Restore Britain Government would change it. The odds are often unfairly stacked against fathers, and many have to fight tooth and nail at huge expense to get access to their own children following what can be malicious complaints. In many cases, these fathers have done nothing wrong - mothers are also affected, but the victims are primarily men. Kept away from their sons and daughters for months and months. Years even. It's morally outrageous. Children need a mother and a father to stand the best chance at healthy development. Family courts promote the idea that fathers are, at best, a nice thing to have. At worst? An enemy. They require radical restoration, putting the child's safety and wellbeing at the very top of the agenda. That means providing fair access to fathers when it is safe to do so for the child. The current system does not provide that in a timely and reasonable manner. A Restore Britain Government would stand up for decent dads everywhere who have been unfairly and cruelly ripped away from their children.

In 18 hours this girl will receive the first euthanasia for depression in Spain. In 2022, Noelia was the victim of a brutal gang rape by ‘minors’ in a care center. Traumatized, she attempted suicide and became paraplegic. Absolutely heartbreaking.

Many still believe that immediate "gender affirmation" is the only compassionate path for a child in distress. However, a massive longitudinal study from Germany (Bachmann et al., 2024) proves that this "care" model is built on a foundation of shifting sand. doi.org/10.3238/arzteb… By tracking nearly 14 million young people over a decade, the researchers found that the "affirmation-only" route ignores a critical biological reality: adolescence is fluid, not fixed. The Evidence the "Affirmers" Ignore: • The 72% Desistance Rate: In the largest group of concern—females aged 15–19—72.7% of those diagnosed in 2017 no longer had a gender diagnosis five years later. If we "affirm" a child with permanent medical interventions, we are interfering with a condition that, for the vast majority, resolves on its own within five years. • Explosive, Unexplained Growth: Diagnoses skyrocketed by 800% in just ten years. This isn't a natural biological shift; it's a social and clinical phenomenon that demands skepticism, not immediate medicalization. • The Complexity of the Child: Over 70% of these minors were already struggling with documented issues like depression, anxiety, ADHD, or autism. When we "affirm" a gender identity first, we risk masking and neglecting the underlying mental health struggles that require real help. The Call to Action: Stop the Medicalization of Minors This study is a wake-up call. The truth is that "affirming care" is often a fast track to life-altering medical consequences for a condition that the data shows is temporary for most teenagers. We must stop treating temporary adolescent distress with permanent medical solutions. It is time to return to a model of careful, paced assessment that prioritizes the long-term physical and mental health of the child over the immediate demands of an ideological "affirmation" model. Our children deserve a childhood free from irreversible medical experiments. Follow the data. Protect the children. Speak the truth. Don’t just take one study’s word for it. The evidence for adolescent desistance and the need for caution is backed by major health reviews worldwide: • The Cass Review (UK, 2024): A comprehensive independent review concluding that the evidence for pediatric medical transition is "remarkably weak" and calling for a holistic, therapy-first approach. Read the Final Report: [ARCHIVED CONTENT] Final Report Cass Review webarchive.nationalarchives.gov.uk/ukgwa/20250310… • The Dutch "Life-Span" Study (Archives of Sexual Behavior, 2024): Researchers followed over 2,700 children for 15 years and found that "gender non-contentedness" is common in early adolescence but decreases significantly with age. View the Study Details: link.springer.com/article/10.100… • Swedish National Board of Health (2022/2024): Sweden, a pioneer in this field, has officially pivoted away from hormones for minors, citing a lack of evidence and the high rate of desistance and comorbidities. Read the Swedish Policy Shift: socialstyrelsen.se/en/about-us/ne… • The Finnish Medical Guidelines (PALKO/COHERE): Finland now prioritizes psychosocial support as the first-line treatment, noting that identity development is a natural part of adolescence that should not be medicalized.

Roshana 🦴@RoshanaMN·
I’ve finally managed to get in touch with my family in Iran after a long time of trying to reach them. 😔 The situation is truly horrific. The regime has gone completely mad and is operating without any rules against the population. Explosions from large bombs are going off all the time. At the same time, they claim that civilians are barely affected because it’s military targets that are being hit. Most people are staying indoors almost all day long. Now during Nowruz, many are off work, so they can stay home. The psychological pressure is enormous. The regime constantly threatens via TV, and at night they drive around with loudspeakers on the streets scaring people. They threaten parents that they’ll kill their children no matter the age if they come out to protest, and they shoot live rounds at houses and apartments if anyone shouts slogans. The worst thing according to them, though, is hearing that the US and Israel might start negotiating with the regime and stop the bombing. They say that if the regime survives, it’ll get even worse—like North Korea times ten. They ended the call with a sob in their throat: “Please, don’t stop bombing them, we can’t live under them anymore. Please.” And hearing my loved ones beg like this is the worst thing I’ve ever experienced in my life. 🥺
Cyrus 🇸🇪 🇮🇷 🇮🇱 🇺🇸@Peppe65903565

Jag har äntligen fått tag i min släkt i Iran efter lång tid av att försöka nå dem. 😔 Situationen är riktigt hemsk. Regimen har blivit helt galen och kör utan några regler mot befolkningen. Det smäller hela tiden med stora bomber. Samtidigt säger de att civila knappt drabbas eftersom det är militära mål som träffas. De flesta håller sig inne nästan hela dagarna. Nu under Nowruz är många lediga, så de kan stanna hemma. Den psykiska pressen är enorm. Regimen hotar konstant via tv, och på nätterna kör de runt med högtalare på gatorna och skrämmer folk. De hotar föräldrar att de kommer döda deras barn oavsett ålder om de kommer ut för att protestera och skjuter skarpt mot hus och lägenheter om någon ropar slagord. Det värsta enligt dem är ändå att höra att USA och Israel kanske ska börja förhandla med regimen och sluta bomba. De säger att om regimen överlever, kommer det bli ännu värre som Nordkorea gånger tio. De avslutade samtalet med gråt i halsen ”Snälla, sluta inte bomba dom, vi klarar inte av att leva under dom mer. Snälla” Och höra sina nära och kära be på det här sättet är det värsta jag upplevt i mitt liv. 🥺

🚨 CLARITY ON NICK WHITFIELD — AND WHY IT MATTERS TO MY GRAFTON CLOSE CASE There are two Nick Whitfields linked to the Hounslow/Richmond area: One is the former Director of Children’s Services for Richmond upon Thames (later CEO of Achieving for Children). He started his career teaching science in Hounslow and later oversaw safeguarding, legacy abuse inquiries, records access, and survivor support for the council that ran Grafton Close children’s home. They are completely different people. No mix-up. But here’s the reflection on my case: I was placed in Richmond Council’s care at Grafton Close (Hounslow TW4) in 1984. What happened there destroyed lives — systemic abuse, trafficking links to Elm Guest House, convicted staff, ignored warnings. Decades later, as a CSA survivor with C-PTSD, I’m still fighting @LBRUT and @AforChildren for basic justice: a proper apology, redress, and full transparency. The council Nick Whitfield wasn’t there in the 80s — but he was the most senior official responsible for children’s services when survivors like me came forward in the 2010s. His department handled the responses, the “lost records,” the legal stonewalling. I’m not going away until they answer. This isn’t about one man. It’s about institutional accountability. Richmond Council ran the home. Richmond Council failed us then — and their successors are failing us now. Full public inquiry. Proper lifelong redress for every Grafton Close survivor. No more gaslighting. I’m still here. Justice is overdue. RT if you stand with CSA survivors. Tag them until they listen. #GraftonClose #JusticeForSurvivors #RichmondCouncilFail #CSA #ElmGuestHouse #HoldThemAccountable @LBRUT @AforChildren @Gareth_Roberts_ @brownejacobson DM for interviews or contact@keithhinchliffe.co.uk #CSASurvivor yourlocalguardian.co.uk/news/14761305.…

Yet again, an employer, this time a council, is happy to let a young disabled man work for them for free for 9 months, but as soon as he seeks to do the same job (bin man) paid, it's a no. And politicians have the gall to try to scapegoat disabled people. independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-n…

Most of the mothers I know would have LOVED to be at home with their kids when they were little, but couldn’t afford it. That’s on men. Y’all are the majority in every legislative body in the country; you run the corporate world; and y’all are the reason things are so fvcked up. If you want women at home with their young kids, try creating a world in which that’s actually a possibility

It should be harder to get a job in a daycare than it is to become a cop. There should be a psych exam, a deep background check, and maybe even one of those tests where they scan your brain while showing you images of kids to see if your arousal centers light up.
