@kruse_mads @Suzierizzo1 Worry is understandable. The landscape is shifting. This was before and during the Iran bombing last summer. A lot of the conversations were also more Portugal specific. I was curious about their politics so asked questions.

@pezwilson @Suzierizzo1 Europeans usually don’t talk politics so just that should tell you they are worried about what’s going on. And worry usually doesn’t come from agreeing with what’s going on.

@EYakoby He’s just been categorized as a progressive by the New York Times. So there we have it, folks.

@siaxares No one said stay in your homes until the operation is over. It was the opposite. Trump said you had a 1-2 day window to fight for your country and the opportunity would not come again for several generations. Wish you hadn’t stayed home that day

Speaking as someone inside Iran who stayed connected through Starlink during the total internet blackout, I want to say this loud and clear:
President Trump’s recent video on Truth Social — showing Iranian protesters writing “President Trump please help” on walls, waving Lion and Sun flags alongside American flags, replaying raw footage of the revolution and saying “I’m with you, I will fight for you and I will win for you” — is music to our ears.
The flames of the Lion and Sun uprising have not died down. They are simply waiting for the right moment to roar again.
It was @realDonaldTrump, alongside @netanyahu and @PahlaviReza who told us to stay in our homes, stay safe, and wait until help arrives and Operation Epic Fury is complete. That’s exactly what millions of us have been doing.
There is enormous pent-up anger, grief, and anxiety inside Iran right now — but also real hope. All of it is ready to be unleashed the moment the opportunity comes.
The Iranian people are deeply pro-America. We need America’s support to finally envision a free Iran — a nation where values very similar to American ones can flourish once more, just as they did before 1979 and the arrival of this cursed, evil regime.
Make no mistake: this is not a regime that will fade away or soften its terror on its own. Trust me when I say we have tried every possible path short of war. We exhausted every peaceful option — massive street protests, open resistance, attempts at gradual reform, dialogue, you name it. None of it worked. The regime’s only consistent answer has been bullets, executions, and fresh waves of fear.
Right now there is deep internal fighting among regime figures. Mullahs and the IRGC are turning on each other, while the so-called “reformist” faction is nothing but the same old Islamic Republic in nicer clothes and smoother language. Do not be fooled by them. The only reason they are clashing is because their money flow has been disrupted, so they blame one another and scramble for more power.
We tried to bring this regime down before, but we were mostly unarmed while they were armed to the teeth. Over 40,000 were slaughtered in cold blood, with many more executed, tortured, or thrown in prison. We need help to level the playing field. Then we will rise again—and this time, we will succeed. When we do, we will never forget who stood with us; our debt will be paid in full and more.
Iranians are more pro-America than many Americans on X, because we have seen American values and said: “Yes, that is what we want too.” That includes the First Amendment — which needs no explanation — and the Second Amendment, which hits especially close to home. An armed Iranian people could never have been oppressed like this for so long. No one should ever have to surrender their guns, and no one should have to hide like a criminal just for having free internet. I should not be forced to run and conceal myself for simply owning @Starlink.
The Iranian diaspora has been our voice when we had no internet. They have accurately represented us during these protests while the talks were happening, making it clear we reject any negotiation with this regime and want Crown Prince Reza Pahlavi to represent the Iranian people — because no one inside this regime ever can.
We are anxiously waiting for the opportunity. Let’s see if it comes. But make no mistake: the majority of Iranians feel exactly as I do. Make Iran Great Again.
The world will soon understand why we say:
Anything for freedom. Anything to end this evil.

@AdamMossoff @MrAndyNgo It’s amazing that they refer to Piker as progressive. That confirms what many of us think progressives are.

The intellectual and moral collapse of the NY Times as "the paper of record." A play in two acts:
Act 1: In 2020, more than 800 reporters, editors, and staff at NY Times revolt and protest the publication of op-ed by Senator Tom Cotton arguing that troops should be deployed, like they were in the 1960s, to quell nationwide riots that summer. The newspaper apologizes to the world for publishing the op-ed and the editor of the op-ed page is forced to resign (James Bennett).
Act 2: In 2026, NY Times publishes a massive puff piece *news article* (not op-ed) about "progressive" Hasan Piker, who has called for assassination of a U.S. Senator, says Hamas is "1,000 times better than Israel," says "America deserved 9/11," supports Islamic regime of Iran, and mourns the collapse of the Soviet Union.
When elites at the NY Times bemoan the loss of trust and respect for institutions like the media, they should take a long look in the mirror to discover the real reasons for this loss of trust.

@jackunheard @libsoftiktok Pressure washing isn’t easy work either. I do it at my house.
English

NEW: A woman hired a pressure washing crew for her driveway and house, then refused to pay after they spent six hours cleaning it.
The crew was one paycheck away from homelessness and needed the money for rent.
She claimed she didn’t think the house was that bad.
They did the full job. She got the clean house. They got zero.
This is why honest contractors keep getting played. We need a public blacklist for customers like her

@willchamberlain Seems pretty obvious. That’s why the IR is choosing the hard way out of this. Better for Iranians if that goes the way I expect. Fafo

@EYakoby Maybe we should have a go fund me to send this idiot to the annual gay pride in Tel Aviv.
English

@Milajoy Uh yeah, not accurate. We’ve come a long way and gone backwards a bit in the last 20 years, but this isn’t accurate. Yes, I was alive then. And Im not being political. I’m a conservative.

@AprilSpark1890 Someone should tell her not to go to Venezuela when they put up the big Trump statue in a couple of years. Plus there are a lot of black and mixed race ppl there. She might have to check into a mental hospital afterwards.

@Strandjunker Ridiculous. He responded to the IR’s foreign minister’s statement.
