Something like the amish and the Mennonites and haredi jews but with islam

Edit : i think it's possible someone should just do it

The examples I want to show are very simple just so our none Rojhilsti Kurds can understand how Persians are. I have noticed a lack of awareness about the Persians their methods and views on us Kurds among our fellow Kurds. I won't go through their elaborate and detailed propaganda against us in these set of posts because I think they need a deeper understanding of Rojhilat and Iran but these examples will suffice for most part. I hope they stay here for all the Kurds to see.

Persians count alot on Hasan Zirak the famous Rojhilati Kurdish singer. He was arrested by the second Pahlavi Shah. The intelligence service of Iran gave him two options: sing a Kurdish song in praise of the Pahlavi Shah or stay imprisoned for life.

He chose to sing the song and get free but later died out of melancholy and depression for singing that song. He later wished to have stayed imprisoned after seeing how the song was used as propaganda by Iran against Kurds. The song is still used by Persians to this day.

You can see how the flag has Islamic inscriptions similar to ISIS and Taliban to make Yarsan and Shia Kurds scared of Sunni Kurds. Making them believe Sunni Kurds have Islamist/Jihadi ideas.

Hello Kurdish reddit,

Since February I’ve had the idea to open the first serious discord server about alevism that has English as a primary language and doesn’t include all the assimilated beliefs and practices. I feel like a server like this will aid the preservation of this beautiful culture and religion we have. I want the server to have good resources/books about alevism, the culture associated with it and our language. If you have any suggestions please comment them or dm them to me. But the main reason for me to make this post is because I am looking for someone who can possibly co-own the server because im quite busy myself. And I would really appreciate a buddy that could help me with setting this up. The server is already finished. It’s mostly the resources that need to be added and maybe some bots and automated systems. The more people the better.

I would appreciate any help, please comment or dm me if you’re interested.

Thanks

Kurdish immigrants in Germany voiced growing fears for their future after the far-right AfD's political breakthrough in the eastern state of Saxony-Anhalt.

When the black flags of ISIS descended on Kirkuk in 2014, the world witnessed a staggering display of military cowardice. The heavily armed, federally funded Iraqi army didn’t stay to fight—they dropped their weapons, abandoned their posts, and fled, leaving the city and its people completely defenseless against one of the most brutal terror groups in modern history.
Into that terrifying void stepped the Kurdish Peshmerga.

They didn't run. For three grueling years, the Peshmerga stood as the only shield between Kirkuk and total annihilation. They held the frontline, fought back the darkness, and paid for the city's survival with their blood and thousands of martyrs. They protected Kirkuk when Baghdad turned its back.

Yet, history took a dark turn on October 16, 2017. After the Kurds peacefully exercised their democratic right in the independence referendum, the Iraqi government suddenly found its "courage." But they didn't march to fight terrorists. Instead, backed by Iranian militias, the Iraqi army marched on Kirkuk to attack the very heroes who had saved the city from ISIS.

The tragedy didn't end at the borders of Kirkuk; it bled into places like Tuz Khurmatu, revealing the absolute savagery of this assault. The advancing Iraqi forces and militias didn’t just target the Peshmerga—they unleashed horrific violence on Kurdish civilians. Homes were looted and burned to the ground, families were forcibly displaced from the lands of their ancestors, and unspeakable atrocities were committed against those who couldn't escape.

It was a betrayal driven not just by resources, but by a relentless campaign of erasure and domination. Baghdad had no interest in protecting the people of Kirkuk when times were dire, but they were quick to roll in with tanks to seize the city once the Peshmerga had done the heavy lifting. It was a continuation of a long, dark history of trying to suffocate Kurdish existence—using brutal force to occupy the lands they were too cowardly to defend when it actually mattered.
The true legacy of Kirkuk will always remember who ran away when the city was burning, and who laid down their lives to put out the fire.

Slaw everyone,

I’m a Kurdish director / producer who has worked on several indie and large-scale anime productions, both as a key animator and as a producer.

For years, I’ve always wanted to bridge animation as a medium to our wonderful culture. In having this wish, I’ve delved into scriptwriting my very own original anime called “Two Brothers: An Original Kurdish Animation”

If you are an animator , storyboard artist , character designer , voice actor etc. please reply to this post in the comment and I will add you to the discord work server I currently have set up. This can be a very pivotal moment for Kurdish cinema if done right.

A report on September finds censorship and website blocking in Turkey reached a record high, with obstruction of the press now routine.

(Moderator's note: r/kurdistan has been geoblocked by reddit in Türkiye under the order of a provincial judge).

A Finnish author who spent 11 years researching the Kurds has published a book on their story, framed around the saying "no friends but the mountains."

For whoever is interested in the joining the elewi server I mentioned yesterday here is the disboard link. Use https://discord.gg/gBM626TB2 if it doesn’t work.
