My name is Saruye, and I am Iranian. For me and countless others, seeing the Islamic Republic's flag on global platforms as the representation of Iran is a source of deep pain. This flag does not represent the Iranian people; it stands for violence, executions, and repression committed by a regime that does not speak for us. To us, the true symbol of our nation is the Lion and Sun, a symbol of our rich history and the free spirit of our people.

Currently, global platforms like iOS, Windows, Android, and Discord display the flag of the Islamic Republic of Iran, thus normalizing a regime that millions of Iranians see as a terrorist government. This is not just a flag; it's a symbol that erases the identity and struggle of a nation yearning for freedom. It undermines the courage of those who have stood up against oppression and paid the ultimate price.

The Lion and Sun emblem is a symbol deeply rooted in Iran's cultural and historical heritage, seen as a representation of strength and resilience. It has been a beacon for those fighting for freedom and an authentic symbol that represents the aspirations and identity of Iranians, not the tyrants who attempt to oppress them.

Our demand is simple yet significant: replace the Islamic Republic's flag with the Lion and Sun on all digital platforms. This change is not only a respectful acknowledgement of Iranians' true identity, but it also stands as a statement against tyranny and oppression worldwide.

We are calling upon tech giants and platform providers to recognize the voices of millions of Iranians. By making this change, you are not just updating an icon or interface; you are aligning with the values of freedom, justice, and respect for human dignity.

We need your support to bring this issue to the forefront and urge these platforms to recognize the difference between a government that oppresses and a people that strive for liberation. Sign this petition and stand with us in advocating for the true representation of Iran's identity and legacy.
