We thank everyone for contributing to our solidarity fund and hope for your continual support.

Although the protests, except in Baluchistan, have died down, the fires of revolution are still burning.

We elaborate on some of our activities here.

1) Since May 19th of 2023, the day of "The Esfahan House" executions, 13 comrades have been injured in various forms and multiple degrees (some quite severe, requiring hospitalization). We only explicitly reported one comrade's sexual assault situation.

In addition to the $1200 for our comrade who was sexually assaulted, more than $1600 have been sent on multiple instances for our recovering comrades and other activities.

2) $400 has been sent to multiple comrades in Baluchistan to utilize in discretion, mainly used for their activities and mutual aid efforts. Some of our comrades also helped their associated comrades in Baluchistan separately.

3) $200 was sent to help multiple single-mother families in Isfahan.

The regime seems to be forming assassination groups targeting revolutionaries as they did in the 80s. The Qanat group was one such notorious group, torturing & killing sex workers, Baha'is, communists, and regime opponents & throwing their bodies in water canals (qanats)

The underground and above-ground revolutionary and counter-revolutionary activities are not subsiding but intensifying, building up for another revolutionary rupture. We need to prepare more for these moments and could not do it without your help & solidarity.

Who are the revolutionary and counter-revolutionary people? Are the 'revolutionary' the anarchists and the 'counter-revolutionary' are everyone else that live in Iran? Its unclear of who is being alluded to in the article and thus its ambiguous to whose activities are not subsiding.

Does Iran not do executions on the spot of protests like American enforcers do? In backwater country of the US of America being suspected of killing of an enforcers during a protest is a insta-death sentence. They routinely don't make it to a jail. Let alone put on trial. Iran enforcers may be a weebit more 'progressive' than US of American enforcers in this regard. Thanks for sharing.

Iran has been shooting female protesters just over, protesting, lately... where've you been? Or perhaps these claims come from "CIA media"?

Also despite the "revolutionary" designation being indeed very blurry there's no sign in here that the authors are accusing the whole Iranian population of being reactionaries, but rather a specific police force.

I heard some bad rap by Iranian expats about normie Iranians, but nothing that convinced me they're any worse than normies in other countries, who support the regime and especially its designated set of moral values and imperatives without questioning them as if being ordinary is so crucial to LIFE!

LOL!!! Wouldn't it be a "manarchist" in leftoid social media speak and why do you assume the whoever you're directing your post at is male "brocialist"? As far as I'm aware, this site is an anarchist site and not specifically a red anarchist site. Who mentioned accusing people of being reactionaries? What are you even talking about? The other comments and article doesn't mention reactionaries.

I got a chuckle out of you unintentionally memeing yourself.

The former meaning of "reactionary" -unlike the recent miswording that became a trend- literally equates to "counter-revolutionary". So it's synonymous.

Brocialist is an ageing term referring to Red tankie dudes who'll be standing for Iran coz "American imperialists!"
