The death of Hamid Alidosti, the father of Tarna Alidosti, an Iranian actor, and the attacks that took place at the same time as his funeral and burial, showed once again one of the darkest aspects of cyberspace: online bullying and violence that some users do not recognize any moral and human boundaries.
It is sad that even a person's moments of mourning are not safe from the attacks of those who have turned political differences into personal enmity. Alidosti's song, regardless of any position and political point of view we may or may not agree with, at this moment, above all, it is about a girl who lost her father. Do we have to agree with all his political positions to understand this fact? In Iranian culture, respecting the family and survivors of those who lost a loved one has always been part of the basic rules of social coexistence; However, this respect is not always preserved in all cases, especially when it comes to people who depend on the power structure or oppose the government. However, political differences should not be an excuse to cross the most basic human boundaries.
