[Split] Debates over Zahra Tabari's reason for execution and Global South geopolitics
Context: this thread was split from the original thread "URGENT: A Matter of Life and Death"
I will add this here as most of the context as to why I believe the way I do has been split into this thread.
It would be great if protesting and lobbying and western exposure caused Iran to realize that martyring her is not in their self interest. Life without parole in solitary however is. How is America going to say anything about it when they do the same thing, let alone Israel? The immediate potential crisis of her execution would be averted. At. 68, she might not last long in solitary but thatâs true of cons in America, too.
@clover, this is in response to your mod warning thread.
Encouraging western women to communicate directly with Afghan girls or young women is about as safe as dropping usb sticks of western media was for kids in North Korea. When the people whom youâre trying to help may as well be caught dead if caught accepting said help, I question how thatâs helping at all.
Hijab is hardly the first priority for women in the global south afflicted by existentials of war and starvation. No Palestinian woman clutching her hijab in the wind and cold is sorry she has one right now. As I pointed out on Vexxed when they opened womenâs liberation circle, you can be on the side of filia who allowed a Palestinian woman to sell homemade hijab, or you can be on the side of wolf that unraveled a ârape is not resistanceâ banner debunked by Haaretz itself. More than a few of us have noticed the Zionist power user suppression effect there, but unlike here, i wasnât ever warned. My comment is now in positive territory. Considering the deserved critiques of certain vexxed power users, this is very good news.
