Ok so I went to bed at 3am and woke up to apparently folks in Iran are fist fighting the gov? The internet is shut down there already, and the major news orgs who’d maybe report on it are all owned by nazis now meaning info is actively being suppressed. So, you know. Keep yourself informed but be careful with the information and where you’re getting it from.
Misinformation is running rampant and that’s a problem in itself, but it can also be dangerous in active situations like this. Try to confirm the best you can, and remember to think about and weigh the dangers of sharing said information. Does it help people in the situation? Does it help people outside of the country to help people in the situation? Does it inform in a meaningful, and honest way? Could this be fake/dramatized/AI? (And ask yourself WHY someone would do that) Does it only serve to anger and upset a certain type of person? Does it have dog whistles? Is it posted by a cop? Is it information provided from literally any one of those lying aholes in the USA government? Etc.
