As someone who is known chiefly/exclusively as a gay rights activist, Ireland's support for persecuted gays on Iran is perfectly unsurprising and, unless it's any more significant to his life or to Iranian politics than anything else he wrote about in a 60-year career, doesn't even warrant its own section on this page, let alone a rambling denouncement of the subject's views that amounts to "executing gay people isn't so bad because imperialism." It's anyone's guess why this article devotes fully 20% of its space to parroting apologism for the Iranian regime whose "citations" are exclusively to opinion pieces by regime stooges such as Rostam Pourzal. If one of many instances of "a gay rights activist condemning persecution of gays" even rises to the level of significance needed to be mentioned here at all, it needs to be totally rewritten to get rid of the nonsense.
