Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has drawn the bemused attention of the internet for his bizarre, years-old social media posts, as his regime faces existential threats from Israel and the United States.

While Khamenei’s government struggles to respond to blistering Israeli strikes that have killed most of its senior military leadership and top nuclear scientists and tries to ward off a U.S. intervention, internet users have turned their attention to his past social media use. The ayatollah is a prolific user of X, making over 13,000 posts since joining the platform in 2009. While most of his recent posts are dedicated to saber-rattling announcements and threats against the “Zionist enemy,” his older posts were of a much different tone, especially with his use of internet lingo.
