Oh, is that what publishing apologias for the Basij thugs? E.g.:

While it's now unquestioned wisdom to talk about how the Iranian
government ruthlessly repressed peaceful demonstrators, Western
media at first reported that it actually was the protesters who
initiated the violence. Lots of violence.

While many U.S. activists talk about the attack on student
dormitories by members of the Basij, few bring up the protester
attack on the Basij compound the following day.
...
etc.
