Hey. So, I say this genuinely and with kindness- it’s because you were hit as a kid.

And that’s hard. A lot of people were spanked/hit by their parents and *know* that their parents love them, tried to do their best as parents, were doing what they thought was right. And largely those people had good childhoods and became ok people.

But that’s because lots of factors can cushion a person against the ill effects of being hit. But all the research shows that it’s really not a question of *whether* hitting kids is bad for them. The question is *how badly* will hitting a kid hurt each individual one.

And when people don't appreciate his ignorant opinion on a war he doesn't understand he throws a tantrum and demands money from the US government.

I am FURIOUS and BAFFLED that major news outlets are not covering what’s going on in Iran right now and I don’t fucking have a twitter so I can’t make noise over there, even though apparently that’s the only social media platform people pay attention to????

Students at Sharif University of Technology in Tehran have been one group of many students and professors across the nation protesting, and NOW, the regime’s security forces have LOCKED THE STUDENTS IN THE UNIVERSITY AND ARE ARRESTING THEM IN MASSES AND SHOOTING AT THEM IF THEY TRY TO ESCAPE OUT THE GATES.

You have DOZENS of teenagers running for their lives in the dark while their parents and fellow citizens are protesting outside the gates chanting “free the students”. And NOW, the they’re sending more repression forces to the University!!

A BBC article says it’s unable to verify the events at the university in the same space it writes that VIDEO FOOTAGE on social media shows students RUNNING FROM SECURITY FORCES ON CAMPUS.

THE AUDACITY.

Share as much as you can about this on all of your social media platforms. Tag as many human rights activists and groups and news outlets you can think of to get the information out there. And if you have any friends or family in Tehran, let them know if they already don’t that people are mobilising to the university. Help the students!! Use the hashtags that are going around on social media (#mahsaamini, #jinaamini, #opiran, #iranprotests, to name a few).

I’m adding photos from instagram that give more information. Follow @1500tasvir on instagram for on the ground footage, @middleeastmatters, and @golfarahani to name a few.

[If someone has the time to ID these, you are more than welcome to.]

here's the link:

another teen girl, 16 year old Sarina Esmailzadeh, was also killed. she was reportedly hit repeatedly in the head by the police.
