Almost like they have some kind of narrative to push and don’t actually care about the cause of the suffering…
Context: How US sanctions crippled lives of Iranians Trump says he wants to ‘help’
The protests in Iran started from Tehran’s Grand Bazaar on December 28, 2025, after the rial plunged to a record low against the US dollar. Shopkeepers shuttered their businesses to rally against rising prices in Iran.
The plummeting currency has triggered steep inflation, with food prices 72 percent higher than last year on average.

23·1 day agoAbstaining is nothing more than a cowardly way of voting in favor. They have veto rights and they know it will pass if they don’t veto it.
Silence is consent in the most literal terms here.
The abstain vote was very useful to filter out those who actually care about human rights from those who only speak about it to further their own cause. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ubeCHFGZM-E
For sure, I’m doing a little self-deprecation with the post title as well.
But what people must keep in mind is that the goal of the online activism is to eventually spur others into material action. This can be things like boycotting, but also direct action like road blocks or vandalism.
Calla Walsh (where I found this meme) also made an excellent post about that today https://xcancel.com/CallaWalsh/status/2011064052303196378

12·7 days agoThat is exactly what the they are trying to do. The authoritarian EU is trying to intimidate all journalists who speak out against the genocide they are complicit in. Their previous attempts of intimidating journalists and protesters by raiding and arresting them illegally have not been working so they are turning up the heat. Everything to protect Israel.

18·7 days agoWhy do you think the European propaganda is “important information missing”?
RED has used its media platforms – often publishing under “redstreamnet” or “thered.stream” – to systematically spread false information on politically controversial subjects with the intent of creating ethnic, political and religious discord amongst its predominantly German target audience, including by disseminating the narratives of radical Islamic terrorist groups such as Hamas.
During a violent occupation of a German university by anti-Israel rioters, RED personnel coordinated with the occupiers to disseminate images of their vandalism – which included the use of Hamas symbols – through their online channels, thus providing them with an exclusive media platform, facilitating the violent nature of the protest.
Looks like the article very accurately describes what is going on without all the EU pro-genocide propaganda.

No this is a parody hence the community it’s in. Though ironically strikes on Iran were expected last night but they were cancelled, possibly because of how unpopular it was. So against all odds, maybe we did it Lemmy.
