Mohammad Fazeli: Protesters are the majority of society
Mohammad Fazeli, former assistant professor at Shahid Beheshti University, stated, ‘I am certain that the protesters make up a very large majority of society, but I do not know what percentage of the protesters are on the other side of the divide.’
When insults become the norm and turn into a middle ground, it shows that society has naturally become polarized, and in the political sphere, some want to take advantage of this natural trend.
Analysis of Twitter and comments and the types of reactions show that society has become polarized, and the parties involved do not have much capacity for dialogue.
Polarization is a danger for society because it makes understanding, dialogue, and formulating any non-violent solution impossible.
