"Criticize respectfully" — but who gets to define what counts as respectful?
Years ago, the Prince wrote a powerful letter to Ali Khamenei — a letter that moved even supporters of the Islamic Republic. Referencing that letter, I offered one purely symbolic suggestion. Just a suggestion. Take it or leave it.
The response? Insults. And not from anonymous accounts — from well-known public figures.
That's where the claim collides with reality: when even the most respectful criticism is answered with abuse, "respect" stops being a standard and becomes a silencing tool.
A nation that erases its critics is already building its next dictator.
