Iran arrests 260 people for spreading 'satanism and nudity' - Lemmy.World
Iranian police have arrested more than 260 people, including three European
citizens, on suspicion of spreading satanism, the state-run IRNA news agency
reported Friday. The report said the suspects were arrested on Thursday night in
Shahryar County, west of the capital of Tehran, for “spreading the culture of
satanism and nudity.” It did not elaborate. It was not clear how such a large
number of arrests were made in one night — if the suspects were in one location,
at some gathering or party, or not. Gatherings where unrelated men and women are
seen together are illegal in Iran and considered a sin under Islamic law.
It’s almost surreal reading how silly religious mythology is, and how silly it seems to even allow it in conversation about reality.
But here we are.
We’re still taking seriously the imaginary friends some dudes made up before we knew why it rained.
And the humans in power still use those fictions to subjugate and control the masses.
It’s always funny to watch people like you judge othere
You mean people out here fucking protesting? Yeah, I guess after 23 years, I should just keep my trap shut on the “rules” of protest and “how” it should be done.
Wtf does protesting have to do with you judging people?
I replied to the wrong comment thread, my apologies. As for this one, I am not bound by a mythology that says “you shouldn’t judge”. As history keeps reminding us, religions and the subjugate nature of them, are the absolute worst thing to happen to humanity. I am going to judge those that keep spreading it’s lies.
Ok have fun up there. Lmao
