In this monologue, the speaker rebuts recent mainstream media narratives that label Iranians as "dumb" and "ugly" by highlighting a roster of distinguished Iranian individuals across technology, space exploration, music, and mathematics. The speaker lists Pierre Omidyar (eBay founder), Omid Kordestani (former CBO at Google and Twitter), Anousheh Ansari (first Iranian in space and first female private space explorer), Firooz Naderi (former director at NASA's JPL), Ramin Djawadi (Emmy‑winning composer of Game of Thrones and Westworld), and Maryam Mirzakhani (first woman to win the Fields Medal). The speaker emphasizes their intelligence, success, and beauty, asserting that Iranians are inherently smart, successful, and attractive, and rejects any portrayal to the contrary.

Chapters

The past 2 weeks, the mainstream media has called Iranians dumb and ugly. This video is going to prove to you why that's not the case. I'm not going to focus on looks here, but I will add their picture here so you can see that they're not only smart and successful, they're also beautiful. 1. Pierre Omidyar. He founded eBay. 2. Omid Kordistani, former chief business officer at Google and Twitter. 3. Anousheh Ansari, first Iranian in space and first female private space explorer. 4. Firooz Naderi, former director at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory. 5. Ramin Djawadi, Emmy-winning composer. He made the Game of Thrones theme song and worked on Westworld. And finally, Maryam Mirzakhani, one of my favorites. First woman to win the Fields Medal in mathematics. Genius, brilliant, beautiful, gorgeous, stunning woman. So yeah, I don't want to hear anything less than Iranians being incredibly smart, incredibly successful people, because that's what they are.
