    Did you… like… miss the HUGE protests that lasted MONTHS in Iran, and the violent reaction to the protests the regime had, due to the morality police killing a girl who was refusing to wear a headscarf?

    This isn’t and never was a “money grab”. This is an entire populace struggling against a murderous and oppressive theocratic dictatorship.

      Not to mention hundreds that died during the protests, several death sentences issued and thousands more arrested by the state for participating in the protests
