An Iranian monarchist who filmed herself pulling the headscarves off Iranians in London fled to Israel after UK police announced they were investigating her.
The woman allegedly responsible is an Iranian pro-Israel activist called Bahar Mahroo, who later closed her Instagram and TikTok accounts and claimed she found the videos online. However, a reserve image search found no sources for the video, other than her Twitter account.
True. It’s assuming you can’t know someone’s religion unless they let you know what it is.
Unlike you, I do not define people for them. I let them define themselves.
You have no problem declaring this woman isn’t a Muslim even though she’s never told you her religion. I wonder if you feel the same way about people and their gender? Would declare about someone whose gender you didn’t know what their gender was based on a news article?
I sure wouldn’t.
And again, I notice you haven’t said anything to the misogynists including the racist who does think Iranians are Muslims. And Arabs.
I do like how you accused me of believing all Iranians are Muslims and when I point out that I was talking about Armenian Christians from Iran, you pretended you never made that accusation. So it’s very amusing that you say you stand by such a silly lie.
I do appreciate your returning to civility, however. Thank you.
You assumed she was muslim because she’s Iranian, I assumed she wasn’t because she was being bigoted against muslim women., which was the point of the article What you did is the equivalent of assuming Ayaan Hirsi Ali is Muslim because she’s Somali, ignoring that she’s made it her brand to vilify Islam.
Regarding the ridiculous comparison to gender: gender isn’t connected to nationality, which is the point we were discussing. Furthermore, I think most people would consider it reasonable to assume a person attacking trans people for being trans isn’t trans themselves. That you have trouble making this connection is the issue I have been criticizing all along.
Regarding what I comment on other people’s comments or don’t, you’re just reaching and it’s getting sad. It’s none of your business at all what I comment on, and no amount of nagging on your end has an impact on that decision. Either respond and defend your position or don’t. Beyond that is none of your business.
I did not change my tone in any of the comments I wrote, and it’s obvious to the people reading the exchange. It’s funny that you call it “returning to civility”, but whatever helps you cope I guess.
Nope, I literally did not assume she was Muslim. That is a lie. One of many lies you have told about me.
I have given you many opportunities and have been very lenient, but you are done here for the next week.
