Dear Members
Iranian American Media is either on the payroll of IRI, on the payroll of Obama Administration or bound and gagged by traditional Iranian limitations. In other words, all three types are politically correct and spineless. Iranian American Media doesn’t have the guts and backbone to report freely, opinion freely, go on the edge, and take risks. IPC is the only Iranian American Media or in that manner the only Iranian Global Media which breaks all the rules and does not care for political correctness or Iranian traditional cover ups in the name of morality. IPC writes it and broadcast it like it is and like it is means the truth.
The reason that IPC is boldly broadcasting the truth without any fear is Ahreeman. Everyone knows that Ahreeman does not care for political correctness, Iranian baseless and shallow traditions, so called moral majority and taboos of the Iranian community. Ahreeman says what he wants to say and allows people in IPC to say what they want to say. Ahreeman makes IPC go where no other mainstream Iranian American Media goes. That’s the reason IPC gets huge traffic and large readership.
No other Iranian American Media has the backbone to publish what IPC publishes. We have Ahreeman to give credit for this phenomenon. Many Iranians based on their own agenda, politics, religion, envy and personal issues, bash Ahreeman for his free spirit, blunt writings and honest reporting. I think we should not criticize people like Ahreeman for showing guts and having back bone, but we should celebrate and support them for having the guts and back bone to stand up to the mainstream Iranian moral majority, Iranian Media, baseless Iranian bureaucracy, shallow superficial Iranian school of thought and IRI.
If we speak of truth, support the truth, have guts to say and support the truth and be fair in our judgments, then Iranian American community, Iran and the world would be a better place. Can we put away our baggage, agenda and fanaticism for one moment and be fair judges of characters? We need to be more free thinking and less tribal. That is my take on the subject.
Can we be thankful for those very few Iranians who are still trying to do some good and progress to clean up our infected traditional culture and replace it with pure logic and democracy?
Ps: I don’t have this opinion because I was and I am student of Ahreeman but I believe this way because Ahreeman thought me to lift up the self censorship veil from over my head and to become a free thinker and a fair thinker.
Be Fair, Be Truthful and Be Free Minded
I am a thinker and an explorer.
