We’re not going to lie. We thought when it came to the Kardashians we’d heard it all. But we were proven wrong by none other than the Iranian government.
That’s right. Kim Kardashian has officially been accused of being an undercover agent. The accusation came from a unit of the Iranian Revolutionary Guards Corps called The Organized Cyberspace Crimes Unit, who believe that Kim Kardashian has teamed up with CEO of Instagram Kevin Systrom to use their social media influence to undermine Iranian culture. According to Vanity Fair, official Mostafa Alizadeh asserts that Kardashian “targets” impressionable young women with her provocative photos. She even went so far as to calling it a “foreign operation.”
“They are targeting young people and women. Foreigners are behind it because it is targeting families,” Alizadeh said in an interview with an Iranian news outlet over the weekend. “These schemes originate from around the Persian Gulf and England. When you draw the operational graph, you will see that it is a foreign operation. Ms. Kim Kardashian is a popular fashion model so Instagram’s CEO tells her, ‘make this native.’ There is no doubt that financial support is involved as well. We are taking this very seriously.”
While there is no disputing that Kardashian posts some provocative images, we’re not sure we take this quite as seriously.
