This is Sepideh Gholian. She is a worker’s activist who lead the workers of Iran’s sugar factory in their strike. The workers hadn’t been paid for seven months and were shot at when they protested for their rights.
Islamic republic of Iran sent 30 MEN to arrest this woman and she is in jail to this day as are many other workers who were arrested in that strike 5 years ago.
This is Sattar Beheshti. Iranian worker and blogger who was imprisoned for speaking about the condition of workers in Iran and died as a result of torture. The government said he had sustained unexplained head trauma-exactly like Mahsa.
These are only two examples. If you are a communist-leftist of any kind and you do not speak up against islamic republic of iran shame on you. You don’t give a shit about workers you just belong in an anti-American circlejerk online.

Iran’s inside war
Hello there, i really wish i didn’t leave the platform temporarily only to come back with a topic like THIS but yeah.
if you are not aware, my country has been going through an inside war for women’s rights against mandatory hijab laws because of a 22 year old girl getting beaten to death by morality police for having improper hijab
her name is Mahsa Amini and her tag is being shared everywhere on twitter and instagram- #mahsaamini
basically the gist of the matter is that Iran has cut off internet in most of the country to silence us while they slaughter people on the inside. instagram, twitter, telegram, whatsapp and all other websites are closed off and will remain that way unless people get a bajillion vpns just to get a message across which is kinda what im doing now…
women are cutting their hair off and burning their scarves in the streets to show that they had enough all the while police attack people and teargas or shoot them.
now i am a teacher and an employee to the government, which in short terms means they have me on a leash and control my every move, otherwise ill be outed and dealt with, especially since im not a “straight woman” and for that alone i could get a death sentence let alone if they ever find what im drawing online…
therefore i may have to delete some posts or just make my accounts on different platforms private for a while until this all blows off because these fuckers DO snoop around peoples medias online. me and my dad work for the government and we have to go to the cities for work all the while there are gunshots being fired and police going around the place,
i might just be the next victim caught in the crossfire…
please search the tag #mahsaamini on other mediums and spread the word so that you could help us. we don’t have a voice anymore and we are leashed tight…
yesterday i got called by the government because some uni classmates or SPIES had said some shit about me and they made me recite a prayer for them and swear an oath of some kind to them. this scares me. i am powerless and voiceless. we need your help…

While I totally understand being excited about Kate and Yelena (I am too!!!) I haven’t seen nearly enough excitement for the character of Maya Lopez/Echo!
In the comics she is the adoptive daughter of Kingpin. She’s Native and Deaf. She has the powers to replicate any physical movement after seeing it once. She’s extremely talented in martial arts, acrobatics, dance, and playing the piano.
She’s being played by Alaqua Cox, a deaf Native actress.
She’s going to have a main role in Hawkeye and is already set to have her own spin-off Disney+ show!
