As always, the greatest ally of hatred is ignorance. The average person would need just a 30 second stroll in Tehran to understand the extent to which they've been lied to. If anything the place looks even more liberal than your average Middle-Eastern country.

Finished Words For My Comrades by Dean Van Nguyen yesterday. It’s a dam impressive book. Really well written & with real depth & substance. Not just a biography but a political history of Afeni Shakur & her son Tupac. Buy it direct from White Rabbit Books store.whiterabbitbooks.co.uk/products/words…

What does Tupac symbolise? How was he shaped by his parents and the environment in which he grew up? Why do Irish people identify so closely with Tupac? We discuss with Dean Van Nguyen secondcaptains.com/2025/07/04/epi…
