Every so often I am reminded Reddit liberals (who just weren’t honest enough to stay there with their MAGA friends, who are closer to them than they are to anyone outside of the Western sphere) also came here. Oh well.

This shit is no joke, man, the US backed a coup and when it wasn’t successful enough they murdered people, and this is not even the first time in the span of a year (in this country). And American imperialism is always, always, on the wrong side of history and ethics, because they’re amoral geopolitical moves made to enrich Western aristocrats, loss of life is not even part of the equation. Stop it already, you don’t have to be Greta but at least you can understand this is nothing but violence for the sake of control by the usual villains, and not make fun of it all.

Nah, the guy was a piece of shit and I’m glad he’s dead and fully supporting people meming in him. I’m not giving some opressive dictator that does all the same shit I hate people like Trump for, just because he also hates America.

  Genuine political change has to come from the people who live under it. If Trump got blown up tomorrow, it would no more change US politics than this is gonna do anything for Iranians. If you want a people to rise up against their “dictator” give them space to decide the best course of actions for themselves.
  
  Why should Iranian citizens look on this as a good thing when the country that bombed and ransacked their neighbors for 20+ years is looming like a vulture?

  Your heart seems to be in the right place but you’re largely misinformed, or taking things in a vacuum.

  First of all, eww, don’t speak so casually about death. And no, lol, the only ones saying that are expats living in the West, of course. 😅

    No on both accounts. You’re wrong, both in your attempt to regulate my language and your assertion.
    
    You can literally find (actual real non-AI) footage of people being close enough to the explosion that they should be terrified, but they’re elated instead.
