>To Criminalize Comments On Social Networks
The fear inherent in theocracies/autocracies and the predictable tyranny they use to cope with it.

> The Iranian parliament plans to add an article to the Islamic Penal Code that would criminalize "Expressing opinions on social networks," state media reported, in an attempt to further limit freedom of speech.
> The draft legislation says that people who hold "a social, political, scientific and cultural position" and use social media to comment on issues that "Require" an official response will be sentenced to prison if their posts get "Widespread feedback" and "Disrupt public order."
> A growing number of celebrities have used their social media accounts to voice support for protests that have swept Iran for more than four months and criticize the Islamic Republic's brutal response to the wave of public anger.

You are being down voted. Not because your post isn't true. They just don't like being compared to persons of color.

Trump wanted to criminalize statements made to congress under oath. “Colonel Vindman is a traitor and should be tried for treason” (punishable by death) Along with anyone else who said something he didn’t like. Then he did have him bumped off of the promotion list. The only one in over a thousand nominations. Oh right, sorry, let’s get back Iran.

This is Reddit - America must be brought up in every r/worldnews post…you know the sub for news NOT about America
54321lkjhg OP t1_j6np010 wrote
I’ve literally never read a post about Iran (or any country) on Reddit that doesn’t have Americans in the comments completely ignoring said country and spouting off some shit about the US instead.
Truly amazing how they can always spin it to be about themselves.

Thats because iran uses religion and china is not really religious. Religion makes people even more crazy

HardlyW0rkingHard t1_j6o2hxj wrote
except conversely the islamic republic being crazy religious has made the people of iran less and less religious. only 30% of Iranians identify as shia muslim.

Religion is as much a virus as a tool, a parasitic force that infects then uses the hosts to infect others. In that context, I can absolutely blame the virus.

It's mostly Iranian trolls astroturfing reddit.
>Volunteers found Iran's propaganda effort on Reddit — but their warnings were ignored
If you look at some users posting here about the US and see their comment history, you'll see every post is about the US or UK ...but the threads they're posting in are about Iran or Russia.
And given reddit's culture hatred for Americans, everyone eats it up.

Can they get around this by saying in every comment ’I can’t believe I overheard someone on the street say…..’ and then insert their true views?
Everyone would know.
