I mean they believe in what their parents believed 20-30 years ago and these bloggers or activists represent what their family did.
And since Islamic revolution of 1979 is a major divider in Iran's politics then I have to refer to this element a bit more and use it as an important element to identify the groups I am talking about...
If their parents were against the Shah's regime and were part of the religious/communists movement, then these people (mostly at their 20s or early 30s now) are also against any thing that may be related to monarchy, USA or what they call "Imperialism".
If their parents were for the Shah and against the revolution and Khomeini, then one may see a pattern of being pro-America, pro-Shah or pro-capitalism and anti leftism.
It is indeed sad to see that majority of these activist do not believe in any type of independent thinking and reject any thing that is against their families' beliefs, be it right or left.
It is rare to find an idea or sort of belief that is formed independently and is not under influence of others' activities or opinions.
اگر خوب نگاه کنيم و ببينيم که ما کمونيست يا ضد امريکا يا ضد امپرياليسم هستيم يا حتي بر عکس طرفدار شاه يا امريکا يا کپيتاليزم هستيم ميبينيم که همه اينها به نوع نگرش خانوادگي ما به دولت انقلاب و مسائل جهاني بر ميگرده و اگه فلان بلاگر ضد امريکا هستش احتمال اينکه در يک خانواده ضد امريکايي بزرگ شده باشه بسيار بسيار زياده و همينطور بر عكس اين قضيه هم صادق هست و همه این رو میشه در این جمله خلاصه کرد که سیاست بازی ایرانی هم ارثی هست مثل سایر چیزهای ایرانی

dude, Bushis and Americans are not killing that 3 yr old kid
people like zarqawi, khamenei or saddam are/were busy killing people around the world in the name of Islam and the whole concept of WOT is based on fighting this shit belief of hate and terror and that is beyond many people's understanding.
Indeed spread of freedom in the mideast is just fine to combat the idealogy of hate and murder,
I m not saying every body should love or hate Bush but I am saying that if you open your eyes you will understand who is who in this world.
You are very GOUZ
Hey Winston. I just discovered your blog. Good work. I'm glad there is another Canadian Muslim blogger fighting the good fight.
Winston -
Children's political beliefs are very often a reflection of their parents' beliefs. Doesn't matter what country they live in.
So, it's not unusual for leftist parents to have leftist children and for conservative right-wing parents to have conservative children. (though with normal rebellion seen in young adults, it's more common for the conservative kids to drift to the left, than vice versa)
Dear Amir,
You claim to 'hate' 3x and 'not like' 2x. I do not know, but that just doesn't seem very peaceful to me...Are you alright? I hope so. It is okay to disagree without hating. It is also safer and healthier.
I do not hate, and I am very healthy! I am always filled with the Joy my Lord provides for me. Hopeful you may find some comfort in His words.
