این‌ها واکنش‌ به پست اخیر من درباره رویدادی در تورنتو به مناسبت دومین سالگرد کشته‌شدن مهسا امینی است. بعید نیست که تعدادی یا همه اینها اکانت‌های ارتش سایبری باشند. اما سوالی که حامیان اخلاق‌مدار آقای پهلوی (که تعدادشان کم هم نیست) باید از خود بپرسند این است که چرا این‌ها خود را

Literally thousands of women in Iran just recently came out into the streets to protest a brutal regime despite threats of physical violence. But Mr. Amateur Scientist tells us that women are incapable of forming independent opinions because they're too afraid of physical

It’s a depressing sign of cultural rot when our society is forced to waste time relitigating long-settled questions like “is it good the Allies won World War II?” or “is the earth round?”

در سال های اخیر کمتر کسی شجاعت مسیح علینژاد را از خود نشان داده است. و کمتر کسی به اندازه او در مبارزه علیه رژیم موثر بوده است. هیچ کس بی عیب نیست و مسیح نیز قابل انتقاد است. اما اکثریت حملات علیه او از سوی وزارت اطلاعات رژیم است یا از سوی افرادی که شجاعت و کارآمدی او را ندارند.

The astounding courage of women in Afghanistan defying the totalitarian misogyny of the Taliban. The international response to the Taliban's grotesque oppression of women and girls has been shamefully inadequate, but I hope these women know how many beyond their borders stand in

You wouldn't know it from looking at Twitter in the past few yrs, but there's a sane middle ground between "noticing problems with illegal immigration is racist", and "illegals are coming to eat your pets." Ever the optimist, I think most people are in that sane middle.

It’s great everyone is making jokes about this, but let’s not forget how insanely racist and xenophobic the whole Haitian-immigrants-eating-locals’-pets myth at the root of it is. It is truly, truly vile.

The Russians don't manipulate the Americans whose propaganda they fund and amplify. They learn from them theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/…

در عرصه سیاست و حقوق بشر ایران، شریف‌تر و سختکوش‌تر از خواهران برومند نداریم. آیا بین این موجود که جز دروغ‌پراکنی در مورد افراد شریف هدفی ندارد و بازجویان کثیف رژیم که برنامه ٢٠:٣٠ را تهیه می‌کنند، فرقی وجود دارد؟

ijcollective گفتگوی‌ ویژه مهسا مرتضوی از ایران‌اینترنشنال با نازنین افشین‌جم، فعال حقوق‌بشر و از بنیانگذاران کالکتیو‌ عدالت برای ایرانیان. در این مصاحبه نازنین افشین‌جم به مسیری که بعنوان یک مدافع حقوق بشر طی کرده‌است، پرداخته و به برخی از کمپین‌های اخیری که روی آنها متمرکز است

.Batya Ungar-Sargon is right in her analysis, of course. But there's a reason why Trump reduces an important issue for the working class to insane conspiracies and xenophobic rants. It's because Trump doesn't actually care about the working class, and is a conspiracy-minded

Well done, JD. Hope the shot at high office was worth your soul.

When we were younger and we couldn’t reach each other through social media, the world seemed so vast and intriguing and full of mystery. Now I feel like it’s mostly the same dumb fucks but in different languages.

The answer is in literally every newspaper. If you don't understand, that's on you.
