Comments: Back to argument on the word/phrase "Amrika setiz". Based on what I have seen, it only applies to naturalized citizens (specifically Iranians). If a US born citizen complains about US government or system, they are called concern citizens, activists or better yet patriots. That is why we need so many guns in US so citizens can fight against a possible government that would punish them if they speak against it & to protect the freedom of speech. If you were born somewhere else and lived here most of your life and became a citizen 30+ years ago, you don't have the same rights to complain about the system. If you do, you are Amrika setiz! Talk about being a 2nd hand citizen! Most US born citizens don't call Iranian Americans Amrika setiz, we do!!! This will bring another phrase we are familiar with, Kasee dagtar as ash!!! Or even better, Az most ke bar most!
Comments: kAmkAr, I haven't seen many pro IRI posters there other than one who posts YouTube videos every now and then. Most others just ignore that. I might be wrong, but pro IRI is mainly not the subject line over there. What I see is a history that causes people to dig in deeper in their views. Labelling others & getting more and more upset about subjects that they might not disagree more than few percent here and there.
Comments: I must say that at first my sole reason to leave the page was the attacks but that became an incentive to stop hearing pro IRI propaganda from only a few posters there.
Comments: Well said Zinsky. If you're using that narrative to explain the division among the two pages, I really feel that the case is quite different and can not be summaried and blamed for holding on to bad memories and what happened between X vs Y and the insults exchanged or messages deleted. The division is more along the political views. There is just no need to be in the same room with other people who support IRI and vise versa. IRI sympathizers don't wanna be in the same room with anti IRI people. I'm talking at the admin levels here and there. They're the ones who set the tone. Basically, I drew the line when people's lives are involved, Not for the attacks from the one or two admins over there.
Comments: Good memory is both a blessing and a curse! I never had a good memory. I can blame it on age but that was the case even when I was a kid. I realized early on I can’t be a doctor. I learned tricks to keep important information in and let the rest go. The curse part comes when someone holds on to some bad memory much longer than they should. It won’t easily get erased. Most of our lives are filled with memories we can’t let go. I wish it was easier to just let some memories go. Let it go, let it go, let it go…
Comments: Thanks for offside rules explanation. I learn something every day.

Comments: I had the privilege of being there.
Comments: Farzad, I must admit that I was a Cowboys-setiz for a couple of decades, then had a break from football for a decade (2000s) and am indifferent towards “them Cowboys” now. My Cowboys-setizy had nothing to do with football, it was a personal experience with Dallas and as a result everything associated with it that I was pissed about! By the way I respected Jimmy , their coach in 90s, he made such a formidable team!
Comments: The 2nd half of the video is very interesting (short) ' https://youtu.be/fiX13pUoq98?si=39VUZy0Jx5GOVzgG

Comments: Farzad: I am ok with being Amrika setiz if you are the Iraqi who threw the shoe at George Bush. But if you build a beach house in SoCal or you love your life here so much that you want to keep working because is challenging and fun then I have to dig a bit deeper as what the underlying psychological situation is 😂
Comments: Here is an example of Amrika setiz ' We were in Brazil and after the iran Nigeria game we went to a bar to watch the US game playing Ghana. There were many Iranians there. I was with my son Kazem and his son. Many Iranians including us were chanting USA. There was one grumpy guy looking angrily at us cheering for USA. Basically questioning why we are chanting for the imperialist. Like we are committing a sin. |
