What is happening in Iran?

As of late January 2026, Iran is experiencing the aftermath of large-scale nationwide protests that began in late December 2025 over economic hardships and escalated into anti-government demonstrations. This was met with Iranian forces that has resulted in thousands of deaths. Official state figures report over 3,000 killed, while independent rights groups and UN estimates suggest the toll could exceed 20,000; however, neither of these figures has been confirmed.

The Iranian government has largely suppressed street protests through lethal force, internet blackouts, and arrests. Tensions remain high with reports of ongoing low-level dissent, regime defections, and international warnings, including U.S. military movements in the region. Statements from President Trump caution against further violence or nuclear advances, amid fears of potential escalation.

Common myths in politics can lead to actions by governments and citizens alike, resulting in devastating consequences. These misconceptions can be deeply ingrained, making it challenging to separate fact from fiction, and ultimately influencing the decisions we make at the polls and in our daily lives.

Let’s stay active, stay engaged, and keep building.

3 Problems in Politics that shouldn't exist in 2026.

1. Voter Apathy
People don't vote because they feel their voice doesn't matter and can't make an impact.

"My vote won't make that much of an impact."

2. Transparency
Voters can't hold leaders accountable when they can't see who is funding the message or how decisions that impact them are actually made.

"I feel like this is nothing like what they said they were going to do for me."

3. Social Exhaustion
Many people avoid political conversations not out of a lack of interest, but to avoid judgment from others.

"Talking about this is stressful. Can we just talk about something else?"
