You don’t need to convince me that Iran’s or China’s supression of their people is bad. From supression of speech to repressive woman rights and various human right abuses. I wholeheartedly oppose that. I’m against all authoritarian regimes, but it’s not up-to foreign countries, but people of those countries to overthrow them if they desire. In accordance with international law we have no right impose our beliefs on them.

My post was about Kharon site which is run by former U.S. Treasury Intelligence Officials who have active contracts with U.S. Treasury Department and U.S. Customs and Border Protection. In many respects US is worse than Iran and China combined when it comes to human rights and so everything they accuse others of just comes off as hypocritical and whitewashing. I despise US superiority complex and hypocrisy.

Me agreeing with China stating that international law should be followed is not in defense of China, but the aforementioned international law.

Also, the economic crisis in Iran is mostly created by Western sanctions, so if we really cared about Iranians, we would stop that.
