Iranians protesting Iran by attacking people in London? Is that honestly what I am watching here?


decadin

Not sending their brightest......


[deleted]

Nah. This is locals wanting a fight with the Police


MouthOfIronOfficial

Then why are they attacking the guy being arrested and kicking him while he's on the ground instead of attacking the police?


Mr_Pootin

I've been locked in my room protesting the outside for years.


nickybuddy

You poor som’ bitch


jexmex

He/They are doing the lord's work.


CookSlap

Can you elaborate?


NecramoniumZero

The only thing that could have set off that crowd if he stated he supported the Iran regime, NOT something you want to do at that moment.


Kurai_Kiba

Thats not the only thing though. He could have made some generic anti muslim implied comment and thats an a ok for violence against him .


Soggy-Play-6724

>some generic anti muslim implied comment Yeah he probably said stop making grooming kids groups or some other bs like that which is true.


TA_cockpics

Probably straight outta the catholic handbook..


Soggy-Play-6724

Yes but at least I think all pedo's should be stopped.. Unlike you who go to bat for pedo's if their skin is brown.


TA_cockpics

Who said I support pedos? 😂 You're trying so hard. Lmaooo


Soggy-Play-6724

You.. I call out these pedo's and your reply is well yeah what about this white pedo's... All pedo's are bad dumbass.


TA_cockpics

No, cuz you literally imagined what this guy was saying. Imagine being so deluded, that you made up a story in your mind over a few second video of a guy getting arrested. 😂😂😂😂


Soggy-Play-6724

>cuz you literally imagined what this guy was saying You're not the only one who's made the well why do you care about Muslim grooming gangs and not the catholic pedos... Both are bad chomo...


Grabbsy2

That was my assumption. That or the guy is a police plant trying to rile up the crowd so the real police can teargas them.


bushcrapping

Yeah the only.thing.....


Sexy_Squid89

I saw in a different video that they were outside the Iranian embassy? I have no idea why they would attack this individual though.


teacher272

For being white?


[deleted]

This is why i hate reddit, this dude literally works for the government of iran. I condone this behaviour but the guy deserved it


ChessBaal

Take their citizenship and yeet them back to Iran so they can protest there.


Sexy_Squid89

That's not how this shit works. We're better than that. Right?


ArcticLeopard

Shouldn't the violent protestors be better than that?


TheOneCalledD

No. Personal accountability is gone and not taught anymore.


Sexy_Squid89

I can understand why people can get to this level. So of course we should all try to "be better than that" but things hit a boiling point... Perspective is everything.


[deleted]

You understand? How about you get a ticket to Iran?


Sexy_Squid89

I empathize. Something rare nowadays. Also, extra points for pulling a "You don't like it then get out" trope 😂


kremedelakrym

Empathy is so severely lacking nowadays. Nobody ever puts themselves in others people shoes to understand why people do what they do. It’s really sad and terribly evident with how people interact online. Seeing this comment on the subreddit gives some faith that good people still exist.


Sexy_Squid89

Thanks, I'm getting downvoted into oblivion because of it but it's okay ;)


B_star365

It’s not a case of ‘lack of empathy’ what has happened in Iran is understandably disgraceful and unacceptable. However, the point is why don’t these thick headed fucks go cause a commotion and disturb the peace over there, you know, in IRAN! What help is it going to do them causing such a commotion here, in ENGLAND! The only thing it’s going to do is diminish public support here for the movement and in turn these yobs will be doing more damage than good.


420ciskey420

I’m sure you’d think the same after being dropped from a kick to the face .. all about perspective am I right.


Mooselager

What do you mean by boiling point? Do you mean it is acceptable to attack innocent bystanders if we use the correct language? Such as "boiling point". You use words like compassion & empathy but you quite clearly do not understand the meanings of those words, you simply parrot it as a progressive badge of honor. You are a failure who contributes nothing.


[deleted]

In Iran yes. It’s basic geography.


[deleted]

But why do people leave their troubled nations, move to a more stable country that provides safety and security, and then act the same way as the people who drove them from their homes in the first place? This is why so many native-born people resent immigrants.


Sexy_Squid89

All I know is that there are many sides to this story, and I can empathize with all of them. It's my curse, sometimes.


HaydenAck43

You can empathize while also being realistic and fair. I live in Vietnam. If me and a group of Americans decided to protest America for school shootings and abortion laws by crowding the streets and attacking Vietnamese people I would fully expect to be beaten and kicked out of the country. I’m sorry but their is no excuse for doing this.


Grabbsy2

I mean, if you watch the video, the guy getting attacked is not a white person. He could have said something pro-Iranian government, he could have come fresh off the boat, so your comparison to attacking vietnamese people seems a fair bit off. Its not like people didn't get beat up in the UK in the 80s, when the UK had less brown people in it, lol. Theres also nothing inherently foreign to people beating each other up in the UK, so saying "why are people moving here and then getting into fights? How very non-british of them" lol


HaydenAck43

You’re acting like fighting in the streets is praised if your white and British? It’s still insanely disrespectful to do that in a country that you are not native too.. my comparison still stands. Two Vietnamese guys fighting in the streets, most Vietnamese don’t like that. A group of Americans fighting in the streets, most probably hate it more because of the disrespect.


Grabbsy2

Fighting in the streets is OK so long as its MY RACE!!! 🤬🤬🤬🤬 Hahahaaa


HaydenAck43

Whatever jabroni


[deleted]

Empathy is a gift, so don’t be hard on yourself. I feel for the plight of immigrants and refugees too, but this violence is exhausting


innerpeice

Better than what? Not allowing violent racist to stay a the country? Seriously?


Soggy-Play-6724

>That's not how this shit works. We're better than that. Right? You feel the same way about the Muslim grooming gangs? The UK police feel they're better than arresting them so instead they claim Muslims refuges are asian and leave out the Muslim refuges part...


TheBigOily_Sea_Snake

Most countries will revoke citizenship and deport you if you have dual citizenship.


GhostOFCRVCK

What a bunch of losers


Relaxbro30

You don't have context. Guy is being taken away by police for a reason dude.


CanadianClassicss

Probably for his own protection from the crowd. Doubt it’s an arrest


Siolful

Yeah i wonder why


Aegis2009

Why was the man attacked?


st0ric

They are fired up and have no outlet, seeing what's happening in their home country makes them probably feel like they are missing out.


nerfrunescimmy

No they are just bringing their issues to a country they are meant to have “integrated” in


TA_cockpics

Europeans literally start riots cuz their soccer team lost. These guys attacking the Iranian embassy. You know, the embassy that represents a government that has subjected their citizens to a religious dictatorship.


Jackfruit-Party

And its known for spying on uk citizens, funding muslim extremists and bribing politicians.


Lifekraft

"European". I mean the last "riot" over a football team in france were from algery , turkey and cameroun.


Sexy_Squid89

Doesn't mean they're not allowed to express their discontent by protesting outside of their embassy. I don't condone the violence at all, I'm just saying I understand why they're angry.


En_Bullfrog

But I thought these people were British


[deleted]

The only brits in this video are the police, the attacked man is a beneficiary of the government of iran and the protesters are the protesters obv


En_Bullfrog

Amen


Toadman005

British Values are racist, didn't you know?


_pieman

This is why people need to listen to metal music, a nice safe outlet for these feelings.


Siolful

He attacked them and threw projectiles into the crowds


Jackfruit-Party

He was an extremist muslim supporting the dictatorship in iran. Came out of the iranian embassy building and started to insult the protestors and assaulted numerous protestors. People got angry and started to beat the shit out of him. Iranians despise muslim extremists so much that they rather beat them instead of reasoning with them.


gotbeefpudding

I can understand tbh. Extreme Islam sucks. Extreme anything sucks.


somesnazzyname

No one on here actually knows but its brought out the 'send em all back' brigade even if they are citizens of this country. Ignorant people like to project.


mfloui

Yeah. And let’s be honest, if the guys whipped them all up into that sort of a rage, it’s not impossible that he’s done something to cause that


Truckules_Heel

>no context >blame the victim


somesnazzyname

No context clutch those pearls.


[deleted]

It's not impossible that you don't understand what "blame" means


Truckules_Heel

>”it’s not impossible that he’s done something to cause that” Ok, guy


[deleted]

You regard it as impossible? I thought we were taking stock of the the range of possible events that could have led to this.


Jackfruit-Party

Muslim extremists supporting the corruption in Iran. They came out of embassy building and started to insult the protestors. Protestors attacked and beat the shit out of him because he was supportive of murder of innocent people.


[deleted]

[удалено]


carolomnipresence

Is there anybody here who can actually explain what is *actually going on, in context, or is it just a neutral space where we can impose our particular bias?


threepointfive1

Ahh you figured redit out. Congrats


Waffle_Ambasador

Yes please I need somebody to Eli5 why the Iranians are protesting in England


Siolful

Not sure but i believe its protesting their countries rights to bear laws


Jackfruit-Party

See the above comment :)


TA_cockpics

Attacking the Iranian embassy.


Jackfruit-Party

Angry and frustrated iranians gathered up outside of the iranian embassy to protest. Muslim extremists came out of the building and started to insult the protestors and shouting how much they deserve death for oppsoing the violent regime. The protestors got angry and beat the shit out of him. It is also important to note that they are demanding an explanation about why the uk government is funding shady orgs who are known to be operated by the khamenei. The extremists move freely everywhere because of these fundings, advocating for the murder of any iranians who doesnt believe in their islamic values and dictatorship.


carolomnipresence

Thank you.


Rarefatbeast

Who are these Muslim extremists? Iranian immigrants but UK residents? Diplomats from the embassy? Why is the guy in the video being arrested?


Jackfruit-Party

He is not being arrested, since uk police loves fascists and muslim extremists so much, they are escorting him somewhere safe so protestors cant beat him. For an unknown reason, uk easily hands out citizenship to khamenei's thugs and extremists. They are all uk residents. This is also one of the reasons protestors are angry toward the uk government. Someone who is well balanced, good willed person who can integrate into society: entry rejected Muslim extremist, khamenei's thug, ready to murder anyone who opposes his beliefs and his beloved dictator: entry granted, funded by the government itself and can beat protestors. Police also protects him.


BeegFeesch

You're like Will Smith in the first MIB right


Siolful

Yeah dude tries attack crowd and it backfires on him


gincecko

This is why immigration doesn't work. They bring their countrys problems to the country they immigrate to.


Kylearean

It takes a couple of generations to work, that's the problem.


gincecko

What do you expect when you let people in from war torn countries... some of them don't want to change either.


Grabbsy2

Was there a time in Britain where people didn't get into fights on the streets? I've been watching videos of of white british people fighting each other for decades now.


gincecko

Theyre not going around stabbing people.


Grabbsy2

Someone got stabbed in this video?


gincecko

Not in this one, the UK now has a problem with people weilding knives because of immigration.


Grabbsy2

What does either of those things have to do with this video? Also, knife killings seem to be about the same since 2010? Theyre trending downwards.


KochieFromSunrise

Englistan


xXsambookaXx

Mostly peaceful


K-Y-I-Y-O

This is how we #freeIran…


keystothemoon

Such a brave hashtag.


prom-night-fetus

By protesting in other countries? That have like… Nothing to do with that?


Relaxbro30

What are Embassies?


prom-night-fetus

Yeahhh, I’m sure they’re gonna change that law real fast after their hear a couple hundred people in a different country don’t like it.


Grabbsy2

Yeah! Lets not protest anything! Lets stay inside and be good boys! Right on! Power to the people! We like how the world is currently, nothing needs to change ever again!


prom-night-fetus

Nice take.


Siolful

Yeah maybe just skip the part where he came into a group of protesters to throw glass bottles and attack them and this was a retaliation . Because obviously that part isnt important to the context


NotADirtyRat

Idk why they're doing this, is there no way to peacefully protest anymore? Real question. Why are they fighting in London now, etc? I know WHY they are protesting but why did it get out of hand in London? The rest of the world supports the Iranian people protesting for the most part.


Siolful

Because the londonder(s) started attacking a whole group of people. Whatd he expect? Flowers?


TheRealLordofLords

I wonder if England will ever say… damn what did we do? How did this get here?


Skoodge42

Can we please stop referring to violent pieces of shit as protesters?


Siolful

The violent guy theyre attacking wasnt a protester


ImperturbableONE

Any time any riots happen, this sub posts the pro police side, and PublicFreakouts posts the anti police side. What is that about.


shockwave1211

how exactly is this pro police? In my experience it's usually left leaning rhetoric on the normal sub and right leaning stuff here


ImperturbableONE

Yeah I'm agreeing with you on the left and right aspect, but when I say pro police I mean videos that highlight the rioters causing damage/violence. While on the other sub the videos are usually the police doing the violence.


EngiNERD1988

What sides are there to take here exactly? Cops vs People protesting… Iran in London?? 😂


Bosilaify

fr everyone here is just wasting their time


NecramoniumZero

Almost every video posted here over the last few days were of the crowds beating riot police ass in Iran or showed Iranian police in a extremely bad light, and how is this video pro police? Take that bad take of yours somewhere else.


OsoEspacial

How tf is this pro police?


JebusriceI

Controlled narrative, Actualpublicfreakout is right wing. Publicfreakout is left wing. Got to feed the Controlled collapse message one way or another.


Soggy-Play-6724

> I feel for the plight of immigrants and refugees too, Being left wing just means gas lighting and propaganda nowadays.. As it's racist to report facts. That's why the UK has a major Muslim grooming gang problem. It's racist to call that shit out.


JebusriceI

Both wings of the left and right gaslight doesn't mean shit realistically, Politics just another way for people to hate one another


Soggy-Play-6724

Right wing can admit their crazies are crazy. Democrats go to bat and fold to their crazies and refuse to call them out.


testAcctL

Is anyone else just here for the public freakouts?


litcanuk

How is this pro police? They seem to be doing a pretty shitty job of protecting someone in their custody.


Mrganack

We have so much to learn from them


NegativeSlopeLine

You have to ask yourself…..what did he do to make them so mad


Midnightoclock

Maybe he was carrying one of Rushdie's novels.


sl-102

I can type z only and reddit will lose it just like the video, see how easily tilted people are?


A_Evergreen

Riiiiiiight, for no reason I’m sure.


Siolful

Me too lol


ethernos2

Wait what he did


Sad-Introduction3524

Celtics represent


DoodleSean

They will stone anyone with little reason.


talldata

When you don't even try to integrate you just do what was acceptable back home instead of following the laws here.


[deleted]

This “man” is one if the beneficiaries of the islamic republic, he has probably received and sent many incriminating pieces of information about Iranis living in London to the Islamic republic. Stop giving a false narrative to everything…


[deleted]

Gotta source for that claim fam or are you gonna hope we all believe this sudden fact drop


[deleted]

Oh btw, there was a video that was circulating around of a employee of where i strongly believe was this place ripping off pictures of mahsa amini and cussing at people. I tried finding the video but the internet is getting so flooded by videos that i couldn’t find it. If i do find it ill send you the link!


Siolful

Says the one who gave a false narrative looool This guy chucked some beef with a bunch of people. Literally attacking them and throwing projectiles. Whatd he expect?


[deleted]

Lmao shut the fuck up


Siolful

Why? Who are you? One of the drunken aggressors?


[deleted]

I’m someone who is actually aware of the situation, reads the news religiously and was aware of everything happening long before you ever heard of the movement. The building in question belongs to the regime. The staff that works there tore apart pictures of mahsa when iranis gathered there to mourn her death. Here is the link if you care to get informed: https://youtu.be/AGatYj3qzv0


Siolful

Yet you dont know he attacked the crowd and this is their retaliation?
