Tim Anderson, writer, academic, and Director of the Centre for Counter Hegemonic Studies, joins TMJ News to examine Iran’s recent protests and the competing narratives surrounding them. How did economic grievances intersect with foreign involvement and viral misinformation? And how will the West's familiar regime-change playbook apply to Iran this time, if at all?

Western intellectuals do not get to define freedom for Iranian women or any woman. Hijab is not oppression and faith is not a prison. Western commentary on Iran often defines freedom through liberal Western norms, overlooking historical context and empirical data. The framing of hijab as inherently oppressive is not an objective assessment, but a continuation of Orientalist assumptions that deny women the agency to define dignity, freedom, and public life within their own social and cultural framework. #iran #2025 #2026 #breaking #mossad #news 🔔 Subscribe to our YouTube to stay up to date with our latest productions If you enjoy TMJ News content, please support our work here: ►https://tmj.news/support/ Facebook ►: https://www.facebook.com/tmjnewsnetwork Instagram ►: https://www.instagram.com/tmjnewsnetwork/ Patreon ►: https://www.patreon.com/tmjnewsnetwork Tik Tok ►: https://www.tiktok.com/@tmjnewsnetwork?_t=ZP-8uDi4YA3iPO&_r=1 Podcast ► Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-political-current/id1782478753 ► Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/1sq6995S3lAOcEMPuxRDQ8
