Given how the US is treating protesters on university campuses this month, I'd say we're not far behind.
Remember when the Trump admin was disappearing people from protests in unmarked vans driven by anonymous people wearing no uniforms?
This is what a lot of fascist politicians aspire to be, though they'd never say it out loud. After all, they only want to do this to the "bad" people.
Sorry for making this US-centric, this is a shame for Iran and their society, both of which have great potential if they could get out from under the boot.

As an Iranian, please do make this about the US. We have seen a lot of parallels with what is wrong with iran vs what is wrong in US.
It’s what makes the whole death to America chant so ironic.
From my eyes, there is no iran vs us or all that. This is a human problem when people take power and suppress their citizens using fear tactics. We all should be on team democracy and personal freedoms.
Ooooh... now all of a sudden liberal media cares about protestors in Iran again - anything to distract from the thousands of civilians they've helped murder somewhere else over there in the middle-east...
