Where and at which frequency do you wear TM shirt?

I understand better. In my case, being in the same group would have been an extra motivation to wear the TM shirt!

It is on us to educate the public, but I do understand your reasoning. My younger son wears his Azmoun jersey and soccer jerseys quite often (his own team, Spain, France, Germany, Iran etc).
Anyways we live in a neighborhood near Chicago where many (about 45-55%) are Jewish. He hasn't met any negative reaction (although they are younger middle school kids) and in fact he ended up making a new friend who is Jewish-Iranian and a fan of Azmoun and neither of them were aware of the other's ethnicity!

Completely agree, the western medias won't do the dirty work for us. At best they will jump in the bandwagon when Iran will become hype (we had a small glimpse of it during the last nuclear deal).

Portugal and portuguese in general had an exaggerate bad reputation in France until some years ago. They were mocked as hell by everybody there. The Portuguese immigrants still stand proudly as portuguese instead of hiding during all these years. Until recently portugal had some economic problems but now they can enjoy as they became hype here and elsewhere.
