'Much of [#Pahlavi's] support appears to be concentrated among diaspora personalities rather than constituencies rooted inside the country. In an environment where trust is scarce and mobilization carries significant risk, symbolism is not a substitute for structure.'

TikTok is promoting Pahlavi supporters fake accounts like the days before the start of the US/Israeli war on Iran.

After demonstrations in Berlin and Paris where people waving old flag of Iran, flag of Israel, flag of SAVAK (security police of Shah of Iran) and US flag, the videos of those people is pushed by large number of fake accounts on TikTok.

Posting negative comments on their posts gets reported and flagged as harassment and hate speech.

I thought pro Pahlavi supporters can't get any more disgusting than waving Israeli flag and calling for bombing of Iran.

Last weekend, they participated in a street protest wearing t-shirt with the flag of SAVAK, the notorious secret service of Shah of Iran, famous for some barbaric torture of opposition group activists. One of the torturers was a man known as Tehrani. Famous for his favorite method of putting the feet of prisoners in cooking oil and heating it up until it boiled and pulling out their finger nails and hanging them with their hands on thei back for hours.

Demonstrators were carrying his picture as their hero. It is truly disgusting.

PS.most of the people look indian to me. It's possible they were paid to participate.

Seit sie es wagte, Reza #Pahlavi kritische Fragen zu stellen, ist taz-Kollegin Pauline Jäckels in den sozialen Medien einem Strom von Hass- und Hetzbotschaften ausgesetzt. #iran #Bundespressekonferenz

Adnkronos - ultimoratop: Iran, Reza Pahlavi: "Lotterò per il mio popolo e il mio Paese fino a quando sarà libero"

(Adnkronos) - "Io lotterò per il mio popolo e per il mio Paese. Anche se dovrò farlo da solo, combatterò fino a quando l'Iran sarà libero". Lo ha dichiarato il primogenito dell'ultimo Scià di Persia, Reza Pahlavi, in un videomessaggio condiviso sul suo account di 'X'. Parlando delle conferenze stampa tenute in Europa, Pahlavi ha criticato il fatto che i giornalisti non gli abbiano fatto domande sul massacro delle persone che hanno manifestato in Iran o che sono detenute, "sono più interessati a criticare l'America e Israele, ad avere notizie sull'uccisione di Khatami, piuttosto che a criticare il regime".

Iran, Reza Pahlavi: "I will fight for my people and my country until it is free."

(Adnkronos) - “I will fight for my people and for my country. Even if I have to do it alone, I will fight until Iran is free.” This was stated by the eldest son of the last Shah of Persia, Reza Pahlavi, in a video message shared on his ‘X’ account. Speaking about the press conferences held in Europe, Pahlavi criticized the fact that journalists did not ask him about the massacre of people who demonstrated in Iran or who are detained, “they are more interested in criticizing America and Israel, and having news about the killing of Khatami, rather than criticizing the regime.”

Der Name "Pahlavi" ist in meiner Generation noch eng mit dem Begriff "Prügelperser" verbunden ...

Eine gute Einordnung des Besuches von Schah-Sohn Reza #Pahlavi in Deutschland durch Katajun Amirpur im #Deutschlandfunk.

Sie beschreibt treffend, es bedürfe gar keiner Oppositionsführer aus dem Ausland. Der #Iran habe genügend fähige Politiker:innen im Lande. Die säßen nur alle in den Gefängnissen. Auf sie würde sie „ihre letzten Cents“ eher setzen als auf Reza Pahlavi. (word!)

Der Sohn des Schahs, Reza Pahlavi, stellt sich gerne als demokratisch dar. Seine Äußerungen auf der Bundespressekonferenz zeigen ein klares Bild: Von Pressefreiheit hält der Tüp nix und wenn einer ohne Macht schon so über Kritiker:innen spricht wie er, so will ich gar nicht wissen, wie es wäre, wenn er Macht hätte.

Lieblingsstelle ist, wo er auf die Äußerung seiner Frau angesprochen würde, die „Tod den Linken“ gepostet hat. #iran #schah #pahlavi https://www.youtube.com/live/4WA6FaXZTOE?si=V56tw1R8s2sNFdGm

Dafür, dass er ja eigentlich keine Rolle spielen wollte, beschwert er sich jetzt aber ganz dolle, dass er von der #Bundesregierung nicht gemocht wurde, der kleine Sohn des #Schahs. Hauptsache, er heißt den völkerrechtswidrigen #Angriffskrieg der #USA und #Israel gut. Eine Marionette am Faden des durchgeknallten Fascho-Duos Trumpel und Bibi.
