Seems like it was posted around this morning, I think she's cutting her hair in a "don't tell me what to do" gesture https://i.imgur.com/fuiRTuw.mp4

mobby_6kl posted:Seems like it was posted around this morning, I think she's cutting her hair in a "don't tell me what to do" gesture I think the hair-cutting has been a thing that some women have done as a show of solidarity and middle finger to the regime from when this thing first blew up. Don't think I've seen one in public yet, but there's been pictures and videos of people doing it at home since the start.

Randarkman posted:The basis is Quran plus various traditions of hadiths for further elaboration. Sharia is Islamic law, according to that revealed in the Quran and also presented in the hadiths, however actually getting this into a workable legal system and moral code is more complicated which is why there's a difference between the ideal infallible Sharia and that which is put into practice according to interpretation and tradition, that's Fiqh. I actually wasn't being flippant or dismisive etc of anything. I have very little knowledge of how this all works. My apologises if I came across as something you didn't like. I appreciate the roll back in tone in later posts from you. I'll just throw in that I am an aethist and will never 'get' this fully.

Truth is, "leave a lovely system in place long enough and watch it collapse in on itself" will always be more impactful and organic, but it comes with the unpredictable length of time before it taps off. Randarkman posted:Funny thing, somewhat high fashion 19th and early 20th century Ottoman styles had the veil be basically transparent. Transparent fabric back then was high quality and craftsmanship, conspicuous wealth. When you have that much money, you can do what you want. Also I think the Ottoman Empire wasn't as murdery about dress code, but that's me talking out my rear end.

Mistle posted:Transparent fabric back then was high quality and craftsmanship, conspicuous wealth. When you have that much money, you can do what you want. I mean, outside of like relatively small things such city states like Florence under Savonarola (and that lasted all of 4 years) you aren't really gonna find any pre- or early 20th century society that aspired to or much less succeeded at imposing the kind of social control that even milder modern autocracies could accomplish. Still dress code was definitely a thing, women in Ottoman cities did go around veiled, often heavily (though as you see, that veil might be transparent). Although its exact details were probably (I haven't looked into the specifics, likely gonna vary wildly within any country) far less exact and specific than what Iran, Saudi Arabia or Afghanistan operate with.

Wikipedia says that Iran is a pretty youthful country, all things considered. A huge portion of the population is between 20 and 45, and looking at these protest videos I can’t help but wonder if the death of Khamenei, at 83, would be an apt metaphor for the passing of the generational torch. I leave it to the people who have actually lived there / know more to provide context, but I get the vibe that the old guard of the theocratic regime might have an unrealistic sense of how long it will outlast them at this point.

Here's some (poorly) translated tweets from 1500 Images, which posts a lot of protest videos: "Mashhad [large religious city in the northeast], September 22nd, protests still continue but taking and sending videos has become very difficult" https://twitter.com/1500tasvir/status/1573094892024340483 "Tehran, September 22nd, beating another agent of the Islamic Republic" https://twitter.com/1500tasvir/status/1573041781079506944 "Kashmar [provincial capital in the northeast], September 22nd.

Apparently the internet is dead for real now. No one can communicate with anyone in the country even through encrypted methods. Even two Iranian numbers on WhatsApp can’t communicate with each other even if they’re both here in the states. No clue what the back end infrastructure of WhatsApp is and why that would occur. Things are definitely bad right now

They're really following their textbook here huh.. God. Part of what has me scared is that I'm pretty sure this is kind of true Dapper_Swindler posted:i think if the regime doesn't implode because of this, it will either have to reform heavly to save itself from these protests coming every year OR it will implode bad. An thatd there is a more sickening option that rather than promise reforms, they might want to make an example. I don't know, probably, hopefully, not, but my mind kind of keeps wandering to Syria, maybe more specifically Hama in 82 than the civil war, but that's still a loving chilling thought and that basically coerced a generation of Syrians into terrified silence.

Violent unrest continues in Iran, state TV suggests 26 deadquote:DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) — Protesters across Iran continued to clash violently with security forces early Friday following the death of a young woman in police custody, as Iranian state TV suggested the death toll from the unrest could be as high as 26, without offering details. I haven't seen any new videos on social media so it's possible they're blocking it even harder now, Netblocks's last tweet says some connectivity has been restored but it's from 15 hours ago.

Yeah, Iran seems much more glad to cut off internet to their people than Russia, I guess cause the latter would totally undermine it being all ok despite the mobilization.

It's possibly due to protests being more common in Iran than in Russia to begin with, and this is basically the anti-protest strategy the Iranian state has been operating with for more than a decade at this point.
