A viral video highlights how public figures who loudly condemn Israel have disappeared from the conversation while mass protests in Iran are met with deadly repression.
A new video circulating online calls out prominent social-justice celebrities and influencers who routinely denounce Israel over the Palestinian issue, but are now conspicuously absent as Iran’s regime violently suppresses nationwide protests. Despite reports of tens of thousands of civilians killed during the crackdown, many of the loudest moral voices on social media have gone AWOL, refusing to comment or condemn Tehran’s actions.
The video frames this silence as selective outrage—raising questions about whether activism is driven by universal human rights or by politics and popularity.
