I’m finding a lot of conflicting information on the situation in Iran, with predominately western publications reporting on it.

Before I make my mind up on this situation I’d like to have enough information. It feels like a colour revolution, but I don’t want to dip into conspiracy so readily.

If anyone has been following the situation and would like to give Lemmygrad an explanation, it would be appreciated.

    I can’t explain in full details, but my opinion is:

    It started with the right/good intentions and then slowly the revolution was kind of hijacked (by the West, Saudis, Israelis) from the real people. Many foreign nationals were found with coordinating things around. And it kind of turned like the one happened in Hong Kong in 2019? and the one in Ukraine 2014? (Destroying critical infrastructure, So much violence around, Armed mob with leathal weapons and attacking civilians/cops/govt officials)

    Make no mistake I stand with the protest regarding hijab/scarf policy. But regime change? Hell nah! I don’t want to see another western puppet government there. (Despite the current govt being very theocratic they’re more socialist leaning than other US puppet govt like Saudi Arabia in the region.)
