Alireza Zakani’s newspaper advises a faithful approach in the case of Kazem Sedighi
The Hamshahri newspaper, affiliated with the Tehran Municipality, wrote: Let’s assume a violation has occurred in Mr. Sedighi’s case. What is a faithful reaction to this matter? Is it even important? Are we supposed to commit injustice in the name of seeking justice? First, let’s not become passive due to the hype of the counter-revolutionaries and not become a part of their media project. Second, let’s not pay attention to childish behaviors on social media; they are excited to gain more visibility. We should be careful not to fall into error and sin just to keep up with the crowd. Third, let’s not play into the hands of virtual project seekers, political shopkeepers, revelation brokers, and justice-seeking merchants.
Look and see who is engaging in revelations and what their background is. The intention is important; it doesn’t mean we should overlook the content by knowing the individual, but by understanding the individual, we realize that our reaction should not fulfill their ultimate goal. By knowing the individual, we understand that this project is not their ultimate aim; for instance, their goal might be to damage the reputation of figures and leaders who are esteemed by the people.
The newspaper concluded by writing: Pay attention to the outcome of our demands, words, comments, and likes. See who the ultimate winner and loser is when we reach the final point. Justice-seeking that leads to the destruction and discrediting of the people’s spiritual, moral, and political assets is injustice. The primary injustice is towards the beliefs of the people, not just individuals. If our demands lead to the perception of systemic corruption, it is the greatest injustice.
