Once again, Iran proves itself to be an Orwellian dystopia modeled on the society portrayed in Nineteen Eighty-Four. Enjoy your Two Minutes Hate, citizens:

"The noble people of Tehran will take to Enghelab Square after Friday prayers with their solid and informed presence," the Islamic Propagation Coordination Council, which organizes regime-backed programs, said Wednesday.
 

It said those joining the rally will "scream out their hatred, wrath and disgust against the savage crimes and evil movements of sedition leaders, their Monafeghin (hypocrites) and their monarchist allies."

If there is hope, it lies with the proles protesters.
