I have noticed that there had been an awful lot of Iranian in European media in Europe flying pro-monarchy flags and by awful lot, I mean all protests in at least four Western countries outside of Iran, and that it’s presented by EU media as normal or semi-normal when it should not be.
We live in the 21st century, not the middle ages or renaissance times.
Then, there’s ‘the Iranian flag replacement on X’ by Elon Musk.
I guess he likes seeing the return of monarchies too.
