Iran: Strategic developments in Iran
🔵 #Sent_Message The one who wasn't shitting on us, Nasiri was tearing his ass! 😂😂😂 🏆 Nobel for the award recipients! Apparently, these days, Mehdi Nasiri and his friends have also formed a "Human Rights Awards Judging Committee"; with a simple rule: If Nasrin Sotoudeh, Narges Mohammadi, or Shirin Ebadi receive an award, they must first explain why receiving an award does not diminish the authenticity of their struggle! Now it has come to the point where even the Václav Havel Award must pass through the philosophical filter of these gentlemen! They say the award "commodifies" activism and turns "living in truth" into "living in the portrait of truth." The philosophical discussion is worth considering; but a simple question remains: When the critic of the "human rights industry" is someone who has held responsibilities for years within the official structure of the Islamic Republic, from Kayhan to the policy-making council of Friday prayer leaders and the representative office of the Supreme Leader in the UAE, is the problem precisely getting close to power, or who gets close to power? 🔸 If Nasrin Sotoudeh receives the Václav Havel Award, we must give a speech about the "human rights industry" and the "commodification of resistance"! 🔸 If Narges Mohammadi receives the Nobel Peace Prize, we must philosophize about the authenticity of suffering and the transformation of a fighter into a "media symbol"! 🔸 If Shirin Ebadi receives the Nobel Peace Prize, the award itself must surely be put on trial for "making the struggle performative"! 🔸 But the past of some people can be put in the archive; then sit back with peace of mind and issue a verdict on the authenticity of others' struggles! This is no longer a critique of the award; It is a protest that the award did not go to the person I like! Of course, the fact that human rights awards can be subject to criticism is another matter. No award is sacred, and no human rights institution is immune from criticism. But criticizing an award is different from devaluing the suffering and struggle of someone who has received the award. Yes, virtue may be born in anonymity, but becoming famous does not negate virtue. Otherwise, we would have to remove Mandela and Havel from history for being "symbols"! What about Václav Havel himself, if receiving an award automatically signifies lack of authenticity? The same Havel whose name is on the award presented to Nasrin Sotoudeh today? 🙈 Mr. Nasiri! 👈 Forget the Nobel; first put your own resume on the table, then judge the resumes of others. If we are to issue licenses for the authenticity of fighters, we suggest establishing a new award: 🏆 "The Golden Medal of Dictating to Others" The conditions for receiving it are not very difficult: Be in the power structure for years, Then become a critic, And finally become the inspector of the authenticity of those who have paid the cost of opposition for years! The only necessary document is: Question the resumes of others; put your own resume in the archive! 😂 @mahdavifar2021
