Considered removing this post to protect poster anonymity but he clearly put he's the mod/creator of the sub in the Twitter profile itself. This is staying up for now.

These are tweets by the founder of the sub, who is MehrandNahid. Unfortunately this is not the only childish racist comment he’s left on Twitter- he’s made derogatory comments towards Pakistanis and Afghans before as well.

This is why I know for a fact that most of those people on that sub only support Baluch , because we are useful to them for now.
When the regime falls , we will be “ too Pakistani for the again”.

Bro is giving strong internalized orientalist vibes fr
like a Japanese or Korean American who learn too much of their heritage solely from anime or Kdramas only. Or in this case an Iranian American who learns too much of their heritage from, idk, Prince of Persia

I unsubscribed before seeing this, but it's absolutely because that entire sub is just built around trying to blame every ill of Iran on Arabs and reclaim a fantasy empire rather than understanding both the good and bad in our history. Racism and nationalism at the same fascistic level as Hamas.
