Let's start an argument

[edit]

**Hundreds of Iranians hold rallies in support of the anti-regime protests in Iran, in cities including Washington, D.C., Stockholm, London, Paris and Berlin. About 400 people gathered in central Paris, and several hundred held a rally in front of Berlin’s Brandenburg Gate with Iranian flags, drums and banners calling for a change of government.

Why keep?

  • To demonstrate the opposing viewpoint to the previous blurb.
  • Opposition by so-called "argued" (ip, one-man) censorship. Use of the argument "cool and a sock of just 10 edits chimes in" against a 30-edit new user (candid about his agenda btw.). Potential WP:3RR.

Why remove?

  • wow!? really a whole hundred peeps out of what 7.5 billion people on the face of the earth - fails WP:NOTABILITY AND WP:SOAPBOX signed User:2600:8800:FF0E:1200:C57:B925:112F:96D
  • it's an argument for the sake of argument, since the underlying anti-regime protests are not notable in Iran on January 6.
