Instagram disabling accounts that support the Iranian revolution

The Issue

I am writing this petition on behalf of a group of users whose accounts were disabled due to posting content in support of the Iranian Revolution. We strongly believe that Instagram's action of disabling our accounts is unjustified and infringes upon our right to express our opinions and beliefs.


As you are aware, the Iranian Revolution was a significant event in the history of Iran and the world. Many people, including Iranians and non-Iranians, expressed their support for the revolution and its values of democracy and freedom. However, Instagram has taken it upon themselves to disable accounts of those who expressed their support for this cause.


We understand that Instagram has community guidelines that prohibit certain types of content, including hate speech, harassment, and nudity. However, expressing support for a political movement that promotes democracy and freedom cannot be categorized as hate speech or harassment.


We believe that Instagram's actions are a form of censorship, which goes against the principles of free speech and democracy. We demand that Instagram immediately re-enable the accounts of users who were unjustly disabled for posting content in support of the Iranian Revolution.


We also urge Instagram to review its community guidelines and ensure that they are not used to silence voices of those who seek to promote democracy and freedom.
