I’m referring to @altair222@beehaw.org sharing articles like Iran schoolgirls poisoned as “some people” seek to stop education for girls, Iranian official says. The article exaggerates a few isolated incidents to paint a grim picture of every schoolgirl’s life in Iran. I already know the west is going to give the worst possible impression about the news from Iran, so why would you share it? Do you want everyone to see the country from the lenses of the west? Is that what anarchism is about, division and fear-mongering?

Allowing this person and whoever modded him to remain as mod on any community only serves to reduce the credibility and integrity of the instance as a whole.

Edit: nevermind, I hadn’t noticed the community is from another instance.

    People post shitty articles from right-wing sources here all the time, so this seems by far not the worst offender.

      I may have made a mistake, but dont you think i shouldve been approached first for accountability before making a post about me?

          I agree with you, i still am willing to engage in an academic dialogue on how this could be considered as right-wing and what constitutes “isolated” instances.

    A few isolated incidents? How women and girls are treated in Iran has been covered by multiple media “in the west” and everywhere else. You can also ask Iranian women who were able to emigrate and learn more about these “few isolated incidents”.

    And, no, this is not a cultural issue nor a ideological one.
