Oh lawd, not Masih Alinejad again...

This "women's rights activist" is not what feminists appear to think she is. She allegedly (the accusation is coming from many sides, including Iranian feminists) works for nefarious forces that want to overthrow the Iranian regime.

As we saw in Iraq, when US-led coalitions overthrow regimes, we "liberate" women (and children and everyone else) by killing them.

Trump is reportedly mulling over a US attack on Iran (Hello, WW III!!!) so this is quite the delicate time for GC feminists to be retweeting the anti-Iran propaganda mill about how the hijab situation in Iran is JUST SO TERRIBLE that it's the most important women's issue on Earth.

And I have to (again) question why so many GC feminists on Twitter are so incredibly concerned about women's rights - especially anti-hijab activism- in Iran that they retweet Masih Alinejad a few times a week when they don't seem to care to that extent about the rights of women in equal or worse situations all over the world.

The US has just put even more stringent sanctions on Iran, and, especially during the time of COVID, this will lead to the loss of life and health of many innocent Iranians, including women and children. Where is the GC concern about the sanctions?

Here is background on Masih Alinejad (the woman being cited by OP) Please read the whole article and note the authors:

"A recent development in the effort to “manufacturing consent” regarding a potential war with Iran is a piece published in the Independent titled “The Iranian Revolutionary Guards are Terrorists- I’ve seen evidence with my own eyes” by Ms. Masih Alinejad. Published one day after U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo declared the Iranian Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC) a Foreign Terrorist Organization, the article opens with a video of Pompeo’s declaration. After providing a mix of unverifiable analyses and personal narratives in condemnation of IRGC activities, the article ends with the sentence “Anything which weakens the IRGC is a step in the right direction.” Who Delivers the Narrative? Masih Alinejad is the host of a program on the Voice of America Persian Television Service, funded by the U.S. State Department. She also operates a social media campaign against mandatory Hijab laws in Iran. In February, she met with Pompeo to secure his support for Iranian women’s rights. Shortly after, a petition was signed by over 1000 independent Iranian feminists and human rights activists condemning her campaign as faux activism…"
