Well Vevak, if you want to be accomplice in degrading the minds of Iranian people then yes, create a Manoto equivalent...
Blame to Soviets for not creating a hollywood equivalent and trying to move their population to a higher state of mind. High quality content is hard to make and most times less fun than silly stuff.
The Soviets failed with their goal yes but I don't want to be accomplice to cultivation lower end instincts of Iranian people. Those people who appreciate junk level entertainment and I know it's a big portion, can switch to Manoto.
As for Hejab: Yes, whether religion or not, hejab is regarded as integral part of worldwide Islam and a Islamic Republic can't skip it. Iranian culture is deeply patriarchal, the Haxamaenishi were and we luckily still are despite of western brainwashing. Hejab is a effect of a patriarchal society, it may occur in Islamic Iran or in Christian pre-1800 Russia, the reason is the same.
Polymere technology is just one aspect of it. Polymere fiber reinforced matrices might be THE new thing in materials in future.
Nanotechnology is another thing, but there we don't have to advantage of basically free energy and free raw material, there we must compete equally with the advanced world. 3D printers are good too but experts are aware of the limitations for cost effective mass production and as for metal based 3D printers... There the other countries have a advantage due to their vastly more advanced metallurgy.
Always to do win the game where the advantages are on your side.
You just don't get it! It doesn't matter if you like it or NOT people are watching those channels anyways! And an Iranian version being broadcast in Iran wouldn't be on an anti Iranian crusade like MANOTO!
And I don't know why you keep talking about Hollywood! What the hell does that have to do with anything? And you wanna use Russians as an example fine use Russia, Turkey, France, Germany, S.Korea, Japan, China.... As an example I have no problem with that but don't try to use a former Communist country as an example it's absurd!
In every major healthy economy in the world T.V., Radio, Film and Music not only contribute to the economy but they are also used as a Major economic tool for marketing and they don't need a Hollywood whos movies are watched globally to do that!
In Iran we have Farsi, Azari, Kurd, Arab,... speakers and creating entertaining programs in various languages used in Iran would cover a wide area outside Iran and if used properly this would allow Iran to market too to vast area!
But if we continue down this absurd path your suggesting others outside Iran will use our advantages to disadvantages and due to a lack of control our losses wouldn't be confined to marketing!
Only a blind person fails to see the facts surrounding him! So don't let your ideology blind you to the facts because that is a weakness Iran's enemies will exploit!
People in masses didn't start watching MANOTO because of it's Anti Iranian propaganda and in fact most of their propaganda came after they landed a wide consumer base.
Now either Iran creates entertaining programs (None Political) that can compete with MANOTO, GEM, PMC,.... and forces those channels to go bankrupt due to lack of viewers or we site back and allow our TV, and vast portion of our Marketing capabilities to fall under foreigner and enemy hands!
And why? Because of the close mindedness of a few who are clearly under the illusion that a person wants to watch music videos is going to magically only watch the Quran channel or another channel that day and night sites and talks about morality because that what's on Iranian TV! Fact is there wouldn't be sat dishes on almost every rooftop in Iran if those delusions had any merit!
Why do you think the U.S. has been hell bent on dominating Iran for the past 60 years?
If it was just because of the Persian Gulf they have plenty of bases there! If it was simply because of Oil there is more untapped Oil in South America plus off shore drilling would have been far more economical if that's all they cared about!
Fact is dominating Iran and the Iranian people would give them the type of access that would allow them to dominate over a large section of West Asia giving them the ability to further surround and control what goes in and out of current and potential future political, economic and military threats to the U.S. from Russia, China and India and using Iran and Iraq as a base they can spread their influence gradually and gain control not only politically but economically over a vast area from the Mediterranean stretching to the boarders of China, Russia & India! (Lebanon, Syria, Iraq, Iran, Armenia, Republic of Azerbaijan, Afghanistan, Tajikistan, Uzbekistan & Pakistan)
You and people like you need to wake up! We either fight fire with fire or we stick our heads in the sand and stick to archaic beliefs and risk loosing everything because some people are so absurdly close minded that see the implementation of "La Ekraha Fed deen" in no more than a handful of areas in Iran with the downfall of the Islamic Republic!
And we are not talking about everywhere in Iran! We are talking about less than 10 locations in a county that's bigger than France, Germany, U.K. & Italy combined!
1. Tourist City built off the Caspian Sea with access to various resorts and entertainment with cruise ships going to and from Russia 2.A new city built in rout of China's new silk road with rail to various tourist locations, ports and cities in Iran 3.Two large size ski resort towns that have the potential of being able to compete globally that have access via Railroad to an international airport... 4. A new high tech City built around Persepolis 5.One of Iran's Islands in the Persian Gulf 6.One newly built costal city with beaches built somewhere between Bandar Abbas and Jask 7.One costal city between Jask & Chabahar
Fact is Hejab by force is neither in the Quran nor is it rooted in Iranian culture and yes for a time Iran also had it's dark ages where Iranian women stuck their finger in their mouth when talking to na mahram men. And I'm sure back then people like you thought that was the right form of behavior but the fact is it WAS NOT and the whole practice was rooted in ignorance and lack of education just as Hejab BY FORCE being implemented in every corner of Iran today is rooted in ignorance and lack of a proper understanding of the Quran with no regard to Islam, Iranian social economics or the future development of the country!
And stop linking the Islamic Republic to Hejab by Force it's offensive! When segregation was abolished in the U.S. did the U.S. government fall? When women gained the right to vote did the U.S. government fall? NO and NO!
Your words make the Islamic Republic look weak and pathetic where it's existence is rooted in and solely based on an archaic policy of Hejab by force rather that the Freedom, Independence & the Republic Iranians did actually revolted for! And yes we voted for an Islamic Republic and again Hejab by FORCE has NOTHING to do with Islam and in fact enforcing it in every corner of Iran is not only against Islam but also anti-Iranian!
As for 3D printers and the raw composites used by them to create future products I was talking about planning for the future NOT what's going to happen right now
Yes in many instances at the current time the cost benefit annalist may not make sense in most areas when it comes to production but by the most part that's mainly because the raw materials used by them isn't being mass produced across the globe in vast quantities because once that happens and that is where we are headed within the next decade or two. Once that happens NO respectable company would ever choose to have an increased number of employees, tools with a massive amounts of waist over industrial 3D printers especially since 3D printers extremely increase your design capability while vastly reducing the time it takes to go from design to mass production.
This has already started to happen in high end sectors and within the next decade any company that remains under the illusion that they can compete globally in any sector against companies that utilize 3D printers would be considered as delusional and laughed at!
And I don't care if your producing shoes or toys or jewelry or household appliances or glasses or cars or Aircraft or.... you will NOT be able to compete
And in less than 20 years it's utilization will be so vast that the raw materials used by them will practically be a vital part of daily life of every individual on the planet just as Gasoline is today
Iran in terms of Nano technology is fairly advanced and with a proper investment that will allow Iran to produce a vast variety of very advanced raw materials used in future 3d printers that will be vital for Iran's economy 10-20 years from now
But such an undertaking would require Iran to invest BILLILONS in the development of future small and large scale industrial 3D printers and in not only developing a vast verity of composites but mass producing them in vast quantities not only for use at home but also for export and if you don't invest now you will NOT be able compete a decade from now
Today we are still stuck with a backwards economic plan and most of the investment is going toward Oil and Natural Gas production.
But at the end of the day to be able to compete globally you CAN NOT cut out Tourism, TV, Radio, Music, Entertainment,... and remain under the illusion that you can somehow magically compete globally! And there isn't a single healthy economy in the WORLD that doesn't utilize Tourism, TV, Music and Entertainment! IT IS JUST NOT POSSIBLE!
