#2 What makes you think that Iranians will abandon their religion, onepigironheadedbrainaut?

You must be a government numbers guzzler, makes sense.
Surveys from groups like GAMAAN and the World Values Survey indicate a significant rise in non-religious Iranians (atheists, spiritual) and a shift away from Shia identity, with some surveys showing Shia identity under 40%.
Related to A_MORONs moronic government numbers guzzling statement....
The Western liberal media is ignoring the Iranian uprising because explaining it would force an admission it is desperate to avoid: the Iranian people are rebelling against Islam itself, and that fact shatters the moral framework through which these institutions understand the world.
....
Western media refuses to do so because it has fundamentally misunderstood Islam. Or worse, it has chosen not to understand it.
Islam, in Western progressive discourse, has been racialized. It is treated not as a belief system or a political ideology, but as a stand-in for race or ethnicity. Criticizing Islam is framed as an attack on "brown people," Arabs, or "the Middle East," as if Islam were a skin color rather than a doctrine.
This confusion is rooted in historical illiteracy. .....
By treating Islam as a racial identity rather than an ideology, Western media strips millions of people of their ability to reject it. Iranian protesters become unintelligible. Their rebellion cannot be processed without breaking the rule that Islam must not be criticized. So instead of listening to Iranians, the media speaks over them"or ignores them entirely.
There is another reason the Iranian uprising is so threatening to Western media is economic issues.
...
Covering Iran honestly would require acknowledging that these policies are harmful. They have been tried. They have failed. Catastrophically.
Western liberal media and A_MORON prefers not to hear reality. Acknowledging it would require abandoning the lazy moral categories that dominate modern discourse: oppressor and oppressed, colonizer and colonized, white and non-white. Iranian protesters do not fit. They show that authoritarianism is not a Western invention imposed from outside, but something many societies are actively trying to escape.
That is what terrifies Western liberal media and A_MORON. And that is why the Iranian people are being ignored.
So the silence and ignorance of A_MORON continues.
