I looked up the list of photos of the activists killed in Iran. I expected it to be mostly girls/women and a few men, no boys.

I was surprised to find that it was mostly teenage boys and men, with a few women activists too. Soon, that list was no longer circulating on Tumblr/ other feminist circles, and was replaced by a list of only women activists.

[–]d0_0my 61 points62 points63 points 3 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link

Do you have some links or sources? I would like to show them to my friends next time i talk to them about this.

https://www.amnesty.org.uk/press-releases/iran-death-toll-rising-alarming-crackdown-protests

Amnesty has recorded the names of 30 people killed by security forces: 22 men, four women and four children.

And here’s the wiki covering it with a full known list. I can’t tell whether some names are female or male but I recognize a lot of typically male names.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deaths_during_the_Mahsa_Amini_protests

It appears in many of the articles and links citied that the women killed are being highlighted as martyrs and everyone else killed is just listed. The sex of the many other deaths remains ambiguous.

A woman was killed for not being dressed correctly and everyone here rushes to say how men have it worse. Isn’t that exactly what feminists do when they say ‘but women have it worse’ to dismiss male problems?

[–]_BlueShark87 58 points59 points60 points 3 years ago (8 children) | Copy Link

Why do all of you femtrolls try and make it into a pissing contest when we just trying to get people to acknowledge men face struggles too?

FrodoBagginz just pointed out the fact that you guys say same things feminists say

[–]_BlueShark87 2 points3 points4 points 3 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

They just taking the thread and turning it into something else. Regardless of your stance on this, nuclear winter is a whole lot worse than women being oppressed in Iran. Just to be clear, I’d say this about any group and I hate everybody equally ok? Good, now think about it, if someone pushes the big red button that nukes everything we all die. That’s the end of the human race. None of this matters anymore.

She is literally saying she would rather people talk about Iran because women revolution instead of Ukraine because white people.

[+]FrodoBaggginz -10 points-9 points-8 points 3 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link

Then let her talk about Iran because women revolution. Doesn’t hurt men at all. Unless you’re so thin skinned that any talk of women hurts you.

[–]_BlueShark87 13 points14 points15 points 3 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Look up. Someone even said what I’m about to say. A potential start to WW3 is a bit more drastic than a women’s revolution. Just a bit. Nuclear winter vs womens rights, nuclear winter affects way more people. That’s just the math.

[–]introspectthis 3 points4 points5 points 3 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

"Then let her talk a out Iran because women revolution. Doesn't hurt men at all. Unless you're so thin skinned that any talk of women hurts you", said the woman who came to a place that exclusively discusses men's rights to tell the men to tell men they're not allowed to talk about the side of an issue that effects them.

Raising awareness for the horrible things that men are being subjected to that are being swept under the rug doesn't hurt women at all. Unless you're so thin skinned that any talk of men hurts you.

When you're unable to apply your own words to yourself in a reverse scenario (especially when you came a place that exclusively discusses the thing you're invalidating) it may be time to reexamine why you're thinking the way that you're thining. Why can't both be an issue? Why is it that it's celibrated to shed light on the unfair treatment of one sex and selfish/harmful to bring up the other sex?

Regardless of sex, race, religion, orientation or anything else, there is no type of person that is inherently better or worse than the other. In that regard, everyone is equally capable of both great love or great evil, and no one deserves to be treated, regarded or protected more/less than any other because of what they were born as.. and pointing out/addressing that one is silently suffering in the shadow of the importance of another does not equate to taking away from the one in the public eye..

I'm just.. so tired if this. Is there a specific word for it yet? Because,

"being the oppressed class that isn't allowes to so much as speak of their issues while simultaneously being gaslit that the class that's imposing those social restrictions, reaps all the benefits of the system, is given half the same punishment for the same crimes, is always believed over the other, has safe havens, has specific programs exclusively to help only them, can vote without having to sign up for the draft, and can stand up in a public place and shout "ALL MEN ARE TRASH" and be met with celebration and agreement.. I could go on, but those people are the ones gaslighting the others that they are the ones being oppressed by them."

Is becoming more and more of a mouthful every day

[–]ExcellentIncident205 112 points113 points114 points 3 years ago (34 children) | Copy Link

This isn't about who has it worse. It's about stopping demonizing men for the actions of a theocratic authoritarian regime- and recognizing male contributions as well as violence against men.

Male protestors have been killed and male violators of the moral code in Iran have been killed and jailed for several years. This was the tragic case of an underage girl which brought attention and outrage to it all.

[–]KDulius 44 points45 points46 points 3 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Gay men have been executed in Iran since it become a theocratic hell hole.

And it wasn't clean executions either.

I don’t think men were demonized at all in this article. What line did you feel was demonizing men?

[–]chill_stoner_0604 55 points56 points57 points 3 years ago (25 children) | Copy Link

It's not specifically this article by itself but it's the way the media works in general.

Men and boys are killed left and right but nothing is done till a female is killed.

"Ukraine has many more deaths than Iran but Iran needs to be the only talking point because it was started by the death of a woman" is the TLDR for this article. How can you agree with that and be able to claim any desire for equality?

[+]FrodoBaggginz -44 points-43 points-42 points 3 years ago (24 children) | Copy Link

Who said Iran needs to be the only talking point? No one said that anywhere. Making things up so you can be offended by them is a great way to be perpetually offended but that’s about it.

[–]chill_stoner_0604 41 points42 points43 points 3 years ago (22 children) | Copy Link

Did you read the article? The whole thing is about how she wants people to stop talking about Ukraine and talk about Iran instead

[–]FrodoBaggginz -5 points-4 points-3 points 3 years ago (21 children) | Copy Link

The whole thing is about how she feels Ukraine is getting far more attention than Iran. Something that’s true. There’s blue and yellow ribbons outside of many houses in my area. I don’t even know the colour of the Iranian flag…

[–]hokumjokum 23 points24 points25 points 3 years ago (4 children) | Copy Link

Our entire cultures demonise men, especially white straight men. It has become so susceptible that even upon reading what I just typed you’re probably rolling your eyes, ‘bla bla Ye white colonist oppressor is upset boohoo’. Never mind the disproportionate number of the lost and homeless men, drug and alcohol addicts, the men dying in wars, losing their kids, being victims of more violent crime, those being called a creep or predator for stuff women are allowed to do all the time, never mind all the men working and dying at their dangerous jobs that 0 women sign up for…

That’s the entire point. That’s how successfully the radical ideology has spread - racism and sexism are bad EXCEPT to this race and sex because fuck those guys right?! That’s where the woke left has brought us. Those who are most vocally against discrimination based on race gender or sexuality are the ones discriminating the most right now based on those things.

Different people in different places at different times in different contexts have different problems. No race or class or gender of people are all privileged - only certain individuals.

This kind of virtue signalling shite from this incredibly privileged actress is just wishy washy horseshit that is unfalsifiable and just kind of sounds like maybe a kind of good thing so let’s write an article about this beautiful righteous woman.. MILLIONS of people are talking about Iran, it’s just physically and metaphorically further away from the USA so people are more involved with Russia.

[–]FrodoBaggginz 0 points1 point2 points 3 years ago (3 children) | Copy Link

I hope men get the help they need. But I’m still not going to say the issues in Iran are predominantly a male problem. A woman was killed for not being dressed right. That’s disgusting.

[–]hokumjokum 20 points21 points22 points 3 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Absolutely I wouldn’t say it’s a male problem. I’d say it’s just stoking the embers of identity politics for one random person with a big voice to produce an article about how nobody wants to talk about IRAN because they’re brown but we do about Ukraine because they’re white. just STFU Jessica

[–]matrixislife 4 points5 points6 points 3 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

It's a culture problem that needs changing. The problem we have is that no one is interested in men's issues, only in women's.
As you've said several times, this was started by a women being killed for not being dressed correctly. Only it wasn't, that was just the most recent event that people paid attention to. It's the erasure of men as having legitimate complaints that's the problem, as you have done a few times in here.

One woman died. Many men have died. Who gets talked about?

[–]Ja66aDaHutt 3 points4 points5 points 3 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

And gay men are killed for being gay, but there’s no outcry about that.

No where in this article did it dismiss male problems.

[–]citruschain 12 points13 points14 points 3 years ago* (0 children) | Copy Link

It didn't mention a single male problem or victim while mentioning only women victims, while implying everyone is racist for only mentioning Ukraine and not Iran. By the very same logic, the person making those statements is hateful towards men by not mentioning them. You should really look into what you're talking about before being outraged.

[–]ABeeBox 16 points17 points18 points 3 years ago* (0 children) | Copy Link

Men are also killed for not being dressed correctly. Journalists without traditional beards were easily picked apart during ISIS conflicts. If you were a male resident in Syria and wanted a chance to live, you better hope you can grow a lush beard fast enough, even if you hate it, or else risk your head falling off your neck. Men who didn't Wear traditional, cultural and religious clothing were also picked apart by ISIS, even the mujahideen in Afghanistan is very anti-west and doesn't allow men (and women) to wear non-cultural clothing, even if they were Muslim, they weren't Muslim enough just because of what they were wearing.

But do tell me how women wearing western clothing in a strict religious/cultures country is the absolute pinnacle of oppression. That's so much worse than losing your life over trying to do your job.

[–]NeoNotNeo[S] 14 points15 points16 points 3 years ago (6 children) | Copy Link

The actress in question (as per post) says women have it worse when it is men being arrested and even executed by Iran. It is still far more male political activists rotting in jail fighting the regime.

As always it isn’t men picking this fight it is narcissistic women who cannot get enough attention using victimization as a score card in life.

[–]FrodoBaggginz -1 points0 points1 point 3 years ago (5 children) | Copy Link

Rioting is a choice. Being forced to wear certain clothes with the potential for death if you don’t… is worse.

[–]designerutah 9 points10 points11 points 3 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link

So the regime has imposed this clothing code. Everyone lived with it for a while. Now its being protested. A few women killed. More men killed and jailed. Yet somehow for you it's all about the women rather than being about the oppressive regime and it's being protested by both men and women. Whose the sexist here?

[–]FrodoBaggginz 1 point2 points3 points 3 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

You don’t think women being forced to wear certain clothes is a women’s issue?

[–]designerutah 7 points8 points9 points 3 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Yes, but that's not what the protest is about, at least not solely. It's like arguing that the war for Independence in the U.S. was about religious freedom. That was a small part of it, but not the primary driver, nor were religious people the only ones being impacted.

[–]NeoNotNeo[S] 0 points1 point2 points 3 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Again, I didn’t make comparisons. The actress in the article did. It is typical of the bias and lunacy in media today.

[–]rabel111 0 points1 point2 points 3 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Of course, yopu can only see the issues that affect women, in an oppressive totalitarian regime, its the cloths that have your attention. Not the deaths of people seeking freedom, and defending human rights. I bet you only ever donate to charities that help women.

[–]ReflexionSolutions 0 points1 point2 points 3 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

The thing is it's always showed as "men in Iran oppress women, and now women are fighting for their rights and dying as martyrs" yet in reality men also oppose the oppression of women (while they could just be bystanders) and they also die, in even higher numbers. But no, we don't recognize their sacrifice, only the women's one

[–]antifeminist3 222 points223 points224 points 3 years ago (19 children) | Copy Link

Virtually 100% of the deaths in police custody in Iran over the years have been men. Nobody cared until one women collapsed on video while talking with family while in police custody. She was not being beaten by police. The two executed in Iran were both men.

This feminist calls Iran a 'women-led revolution' . No, it is men being executed, not women. It is just one more example of gynocentrism--nobody cared about men dying in police custody, but they do care about women.

Eh, I disagree. Men have always been the ones who are forced to fight for what's right and defend the weak. I'm proud of that. Just because some famous airheads don't want to give credit to those who do that today doesn't change anything.

If I'm ever in the situation where I die doing the right thing, and famous people don't want to acknowledge it, that's fine. It won't change the fact that I died doing what's right. It'll just highlight how awful they are.

The right thing is supposed to make your status better.

On what basis, is it the right thing, when your society is not better for you, except when it comes to wealth ?

Which itself has much more to do with science and technical education than all this bullshit. Else, China wouldn't be a great power

It is NOT the greater good if you keep on being treated shitty, by your society.

Hell, even Russia is better in some aspects.

Okay, so what I said went completely over your head. Read it again but take your time.

You do the right thing BECAUSE it's the right thing. Not because you want to get something out of it.

[–]HinduProphet 0 points1 point2 points 3 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

But you eventually expect the world to become better for you or people associated with you in the long run when you do the right thing, so in the end you are supposed to get benefitted by it, just in the super long run.

Right and wrong are more about aligning your time preferences with the rest of the society so that it becomes more sustainable.

The Western erasure of the men killed in the Iranian protests is unbelievable. Even Time Magazine named Women of Iran the 2022 Heroes of the Year.

Here's a message from one of the prominent Iranian protesters:

Shima*, 32, works in the male-dominated fields of finance and economics. "I am proud of myself and my country’s women who stand up for their rights in a braver manner than any man in the world," she says. "I refuse to wear hijab in public places and at work; I think it is the best way to get our rights."

Men died for her cause, and all she can talk about is how great women are.

Clearly feminist mentality is even there in Iran.

[–]CostlyDugout 56 points57 points58 points 3 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

Is she under the impression that “women” and “white people” are two separate categories?

[–]Angryasfk 2 points3 points4 points 3 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

As a “Metoo” style feminist, she no doubt thinks that advancing “non-white people” includes promoting her. Women are somehow “non-white” in their tiny minds.

She's a shit actress, Hollywood elite, pontificating from her ivory tower. All her latest films have tanked (the 355 did horrendously at the box office and was universally panned). She's in no position to demand ANYTHING. Perhaps people are more invested in the situation in Ukraine because it has HUGE geopolitical ramifications well beyond the region, whereas the strife in Iran, whilst being important, is a regional level issue. Also the scale is light-years apart. One is of protesters and civil disobedience, the other is open warfare, tens of thousands dead, millions of people displaced, an entire country destroyed and the threat of nuclear confrontation....hardly equal.

In the end we will have some official statistics. And we'll see that for each 1 raped woman in Ukraine, there were 50-100-150 men killed, and they still will say "women most affected".

[–]Angryasfk 0 points1 point2 points 3 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Women are most affected anyway. Just ask Hilary Clinton!!!

[–]sanjsrik 37 points38 points39 points 3 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

Yes, actors who have no business speaking.

They play pretend for a living! She is just pretending to have a brain.

[–]McFeely_Smackup 8 points9 points10 points 3 years ago* (0 children) | Copy Link

She's so focused on supporting the women of Iran, that she traveled to Ukraine?

Why didn't she go to Iran and join the protests? The most she's willing to do for Iran is to complain that people don't talk about Iran enough.

[–]A_British_Villain 15 points16 points17 points 3 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Can we find out who exactly is asking a Hollywood actress about international politics???

[–]HeWhoFrownsLikeALord 5 points6 points7 points 3 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

So despite a country being destroyed by another and causing global problems, she takes the time to play victim about an internal issue that should be handled inside that country's system? I hate celebrities

[–]Yarchening 4 points5 points6 points 3 years ago* (0 children) | Copy Link

I want to talk about Ukraine more, because Iran isnt invading other countries. Is Iran a fucked up place run by unhinged zealotry? Absolutely. But at least its confined to one country. If Russia takes Ukraine, its open season on every country they border, until we have WW3 on our hands.

Edit: You ever notice its always the actresses who dropped out of school who have the most brain-dead takes?

[–]PactScharp 11 points12 points13 points 3 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Amazing.

First of all, the idea that no one wants to talk about Iran is fucking absurd. Tons of people are bringing it up as "proof" that women still have to fight for their rights. Here's something that truly NO ONE wants to talk about though: these "women led protests" she speaks of... who does she think is taking the biggest risks? Who's leading the front? Who are the ones getting attacked? Arrested? KILLED? Oh right... MEN. Overwhelmingly so. The media has made it all about "women's rights", but it actually is barely about that. It's an uprise against an all around oppressive regime. Women's rights are part of that, but to suggest it's "only" about that and that "women" are fighting on the front lines is fucking absurd.

And to say it's comparable to Ukraine, which is a LITERAL WAR that is capabale of starting world war is beyond moronic. I cannot believe someone can be that stupid. Yes, what happens in Iran is tragic but nowhere near as awful as what's happening in Ukraine and the rammifications of that. There is a serious chance that WW3 is going to break out, in which case (despite the fact that we don't have drafting at first glance, the actual law is simply "put on hold", meaning it can be re-activated whenerer they deem it necesarry), I will almost certainly be drafted. My COUNTRY and loads of other countries around me (Western Europe) will have to fight.

War and a potential third world war >>>>>>>>>>> Protests in one country.

Has fuck all to do with Ukraine being "mostly white people".

Then again, Jessica Chastain has always been one of the most insufferable and woke idiots walking around in Hollywood, and that's truly saying something. No surprise she would have such a braindead psychotic take on these issues.

[–]Uncle_Touchy1987 4 points5 points6 points 3 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Her job is to be pretty, not think critically. Colour me surprised she's narrow/victim minded and says the same narrative she's been trained to say.

[–]AnTeZiT 4 points5 points6 points 3 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Oh fuck off, as if she cares about Iran because of the people. They care because its "women protesting". If she cared she'd talk about Palestine, Yemen, china's concentration camps where they harvest organs.

But can't talk about that, less we lose a movie deal.

[–]VentusHermetis 8 points9 points10 points 3 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

Where does it say that in the article?

[–]zvon666 6 points7 points8 points 3 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Count the number of times she's even acknowledged that a single not strictly female person died.

[–]lightbenderfm 7 points8 points9 points 3 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

I love the shit about wearing a shirt to show support, like it’s some noble act. “I support the good people standing up against the bad people.”

[–]Angryasfk 1 point2 points3 points 3 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

It’s like all the crowd that go to a free concert and wear a wrist band that “raises awareness” and imagine they’re morally superior!

[–]Decitriction 7 points8 points9 points 3 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

Everyone loves getting lectured by white liberal guiltists.

[–]Angryasfk 1 point2 points3 points 3 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Well (like Turd) she needs to boost her celebrity and career!

[–]63daddy 6 points7 points8 points 3 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Her analogy is ridiculous. A handful of people dying in protests is nothing like a country being invaded and going to war, killing many thousands.

They receive unequal coverage because they are unequal events.

[–]pleasedrowning 4 points5 points6 points 3 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Really... Iran is a shit show... Again. Everyone is tired of it, again? Color me surprised. Everyone is talking about Ukraine because nuclear war can pop off... Bigger fish

[–][deleted] 8 points9 points10 points 3 years ago (3 children) | Copy Link

Do they not know in iran Feminism is a joke? Like iranian women are actually mad at feminists and hate how they keep taking what they’re doing and claiming it as “feminist” crap.

I talk with a woman from iran daily she regularly rants to me, usually about the regime but she’ll toss in that sentiment here and there too. It’s ironic how feminists fail tk recognize how Iranian woman don’t want anything to do with feminism and just want to fight the regime.

[–]bahahha99991 points 3 years ago [recovered] (2 children) | Copy Link

Like this sub is recognizing how Iranian woman want to “fight the regime”?

You have keyboard warriors talking about how the women there aren’t fighting for shit and that the men are the “simps” suffering

Lmao

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point2 points 3 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

Yeah they do. Women’s rights are important and given the theocratic nature of Iran’s regime it’s being fought by women and men (cause they didn’t divide themselves with feminism)

I mean if you’re going to listen to the MRA’s worst to offer but pay 0 attention to feminism’s worst to offer then you should look into what bias is.

[–]Baensky 3 points4 points5 points 3 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Boys and girls who cares what this b movie actresses has to say ?

Maybe she should less Make-up and more brain.

[–]Naru4odo 1 point2 points3 points 3 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Classic case of "what have you done for me lately" syndrome.

[–]EngineerWorth2490 1 point2 points3 points 3 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

I’m not even going to read more than the first couple of sentences. People don’t want to talk more about Ukraine than Iran because there are more white people; they want to talk about Ukraine because it contributes more significantly towards global inflation and Putin has been threatening the use of nukes which could mean global intervention and all out war.

Jessica Chastain needs to lay off the Margaritas and become educated in geopolitics and globalization before opening her mouth….the world prioritizing humanitarian crises in far away countries over economic/industrial/supply chain crises that hit them where it hurts? Get real. 💩

[–]Angryasfk 0 points1 point2 points 3 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

She’s not really interested in geopolitics (that’s a bit too hard). No, it’s all about virtue signalling and self promotion (they’re closely related after all). She also clearly loves to display her wokeness - hence insisting that it’s all about skin colour (pity Iranians aren’t exactly “brown”).

If you are a total idiot and you have a problem trying to hide it… Then do like JChastain… Go to the newspaper and tell the world🫠

death a 100 000 males is just statistic

death of a single a female is a huge tragedy

[–]Personal_Ice2327 2 points3 points4 points 3 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

What exactly did she say

[–]Angryasfk 1 point2 points3 points 3 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

More self promotion.

[+]needalife94 -11 points-10 points-9 points 3 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link

Wait , why is this posted here ? At what point did she say "men should feel guilty" ?

The revolution is about HUMAN rights not just women's rights.
