    white characters are shown as more competent than non white people so I rated it at 1

  2. Hey #Movies #Cinema

    I feel like watching some #Iranian movies. I remember watching some very good stuff in the early aughts, that (if I recall correctly) was coming mainly out of the Kurdistan region of the country. Don't quote me.

    Then near the end of the aughts a thing happened that made me somewhat lose interest in "cinema" as a pastime. I don't wanna get too much into it, I can't pin it all on Gaspar Noe but he's a central culprit.

    But lately I've gotten back to enjoying it some, now and then. I don't necessarily just trust it, cause a Game Of Thrones will not lead with its moral nihilism in the promos, and people still wrapped in their desensitization cloaks will not understand my objections to watching these acts, and likely consider any strong reactions to them as "drama" or some such.

    It's not even the violence, it's the violence in its context. I think extreme violence can be entirely non-gratuitous, but an artist has to earn the right to use it, much like they won't let a new construction hire run the big tractor on his first day.

    It's okay if the recommendations are violent, violence is a daily character in that region these days. As long as the art is not morally nihilistic. Which is more of a Western thing, I'd say, in terms of video entertainment.

    I'm rambling now, cause I am here to get some movie recommendations for stuff that's come out of #Iran (surrounding region also acceptable, particularly if there's a #Kurd or especially #Parsi connection) in the last 10-15 years.

    Hit me, Fedi!

    (I'm gonna try to show up for #Monsterdon tonight too. I had fun the last time I remembered. Granted, it was only cause there were Daleks, but it was fun.)

  3. I have Multiple Citizenship by words!
    I am a #Kurd from #Iran.
    I am a Kurd from #Iraq.
    I am a Kurd from #Syria.
    I am a Kurd from #Turkey.
    I am a Kurd without state.
    I am a world citizen but the citizens are not my friends.

  4. Die säkulare Selbstverealtung von #Rojava droht von der islamistischen Übergangsregierung von #Syrien überrannt zu werden. Ein weiteres Blutbad an #Kurd:innen droht.

  5. Uppgifter: UD-diplomat och kurdisk aktivist offrades i byte för Medin
    När Joakim Medin plötsligt släpptes från det turkiska högsäkerhetsfängelset, skedde det bara dagar efter att Säpo gripit en svensk UD-diplomat och en kurdisk representant. En källa uppger till #Blankspot att frigivningen var en del i en informell bytesaffär mellan #Sverige och #Turkiet – där turkisk underrättelsetjänst utlovades åtgärder mot personer i Sverige.

  6. (2) Forest fires broke out in Ofunato City and firefighters still haven’t been able to put them out.

    (3) Viral Twitter posts have stirred up anti-Kurd sentiment when a Turkish IT worker tweeted that Japan is actually the Kurds’ homeland.

  9. HUMANITARIAN AID🔴 FOR THE VICTIMS OF THE WAR OF AGGRESSION BY TURKEY AND JIHADIST GROUPS

    On November 27, 2024, jihadist groups supported by Turkey attacked Aleppo, one of the largest cities in Syria. Fighters from the Turkish-led SNA are terrorizing the local population, arbitrarily arresting people and using targeted violence.

    In 2018, Turkey and jihadist groups invaded the Kurdish city of Efrin and displaced hundreds of thousands of Kurds to the Shahba region.

    The Autonomous Administration of Rojava (DAANES) decided to evacuate the surrounded population and bring them to safe areas. This decision paved the way for a large wave of migration, but was intended to prevent a massacre of tens of thousands of people.

    Undoubtedly, this process will bring much suffering, and tens of thousands of children, women and elderly people will be exposed to the harsh winter temperatures.

    Heyva Sor a Kurd , our relief organization in Rojava, continues its efforts to meet the needs of the displaced people, move them to safe places and provide health services.

    For these reasons, we urge you to donate to the people of Rojava through Heyva Sor a Kurdistanê.

  10. In #Turkey, he is labelled a terrorist by the Turkish state media because he said that he is a #Kurd.
    The Kurdish lion #DenizUndav laughs at this media and scores goals in the German national team, in the Champions League and in the #Bundesliga.

  11. #DenizUndav: “I know that the #Kurds support me and are happy that a #Kurd is playing football at such a high level.”

  12. Today we commemorate the two Kurdish politicians #MehmetSincar and #MetinÖzdemir, who were killed by the Turkish state 31 years ago today.

  13. What do German media write about the prison sentence of a #Kurd from the Kurdish Freedom Movement if they don't find any criminal offences? "He organised, coordinated and made propaganda" :)
    And for that he should get 4 years in prison. Welcome to #Germany!

  14. #HakimLokman is a #Kurd from southern #Kurdistan. He was attacked today in #Istanbul by 12 #turkish fascists because he made a phone call in #Kurdish. One of the attackers stabbed him with a knife. Unfortunately, he lost his life. The attacks against Kurds because of their Kurdish identity do not stop in #Turkey.

  15. @ritchiepage2001 @Radical_EgoCom Althought it is admirable what #Kurds and other volunteers are doing to fight #fascism (#ISIS would still be powerful if not by the #kurd #women for example),/i am more interested in their social and economy experiences right now, because I think they can be very valuable here in Europe even if we are not living under that level of violence by our own and neighbour states yet. Also, i will subscribe to you if you post also here in fediverse and not in #facebook.

  16. @Radical_EgoCom it is very interesting, mainly is what is fueling the #kurd #revolution in #Rojava. I keep learning when I can, it has lots of ideas from #collectivism #feminism #cooperatives and also personal liberties of property i believe.

  17. #Kurdish nationalists have their own version of the calendar, which dates from the Battle of Nineveh in 1234 BH; this one has a lot of sociopolitical baggage, and I am indebted to the brilliant @darlingofinana for linking me to this thread by Max Joseph, originally posted on the site formerly known as Twitter, which also goes into the influence and #Akitu on #Nowruz: web.archive.org/web/2019032616
