Sure, there's stuff happening in the background, but I was more impressed at how many people independently had the thought of "I should bring some food to share" on their way there.
There was another Iranian gathering where they were giving the police flowers. Beautiful display of humanity and show how it should be done.

I was there. It was a gorgeous day with people celebrating the beginning of the end of an evil murderous regime

Love it. Putin’s Russia, Hamas and Islamic Republic of Iran have gotten their ass handed to them the past few years.Â

Glad to see them so happy and obviously we should all be happy to see their dictator dead. I’m nervous to see what happens next, but at least there is a shot at something better now.

Good luck to the people of Iran! Looks like a big turnout in Sydney and Melbourne.
I think that it is absolutely shameful the discourse around the Australian subs who are against Albo and the Persian community who have been hoping this day would come for decades. There might not have been coverage of it here but I saw many Persian protests at Town Hall calling for this in the last few months. This action was paid in blood by the 30,000+ protestors who were slaughtered by the IRGC.
People here who are just repeating Russian talking points who are suddenly so concerned about human rights when they weren’t concerned about them when Iran was slaughtering it’s own people. People who have no connection to the region who think that Persians who live here or whom lost their lives protesting are just ignorant of history. Persian people here some of the most successful and assimilated people from the middle east and we share many common values. They are intelligent enough to know the risks and shortfalls but still are ecstatic about it.
People with no connection to the region shouldn’t be belittling the wants and lecturing people that do. I don’t actually see anyone in real life and not online who supports the IRGC and aren’t happy about this.

That’s how we unite people and live peacefully and share things with each other. Love it

These are friendly, happy people who are relieved to see positive change. Not looking for a fight, not looking to “debate” online. The world could use more of it, instead of bullshit politically-aligned rhetoric

I really want to try some Iranian sweets now. There’s a YouTuber (Little Chinese Everywhere) who was recently in Iran and showed the various breads and sweets and it all sounds incredible.
