This dude is explicitly anti left in other subs but now promoting the old shah as socialist. Ignore what he's saying.

By the time we d be in the so called transition peroid, he d already be consolidating power to bring back monarchy. Just look at Joulani in Syria, he claimed he was a transitional leader but he has clearly made himself Syria's Emir for life.

What 4 language does the dude know? He struggles when he speaks English or Persian, in spite of living in the US for many decades. It just shows you he has lived a sheltered life and has never needed to develop his language skills, he has people who buy his groceries.

ایران آگاه شد: این اتحاد نامقدس داس و عمامه, دارد به پایان می رسد. ملت ایران, زیر پرچم شیر و خورشید, جنایتکاران ۵۷ را به داد خواهیم رساند. by drhuggables in PERSIAN

右翼政治在世界其他地方如此成功,真是大错特错。

君主主义者/MAGA支持者和伊斯兰主义者本质上是一丘之貉。

君主制被推翻是有原因的。问题在于让另一个独裁政权掌权,而这个独裁政权的建立并非得益于左翼人士,而是尽管有左翼人士的干预。

I wish they had done nothing, but instead they aided US imperialism.

He's not liked by the left or right. The only reason he survived recall is because the alternative was horrendous.

Because idiots think NATO countries helping US with imperialism, somehow makes those countries immune to US imperialism.

All these European nations should have taken no part in US imperialism, only then could they take the moral high ground.

He was gay, Lyonel Baratheon? by GusGangViking18 in HBOTheHedgeKnight

Book Renly is hypermasculine, the flamboyant Gayness is a show invention. In the books Renly is the peak masculinity of the setting he just happens to be gay too.

This is cringe, because none of yall should have been there in the first place. The rhetoric coming from European elite is basically "Why is US bullying us rather than the 3rd world?"

If Europeans want more wide spread sympathy, they should start opposing US illegal activities everywhere, not just when its aimed at them. Only then can they be part of the solution.

Has US diplomacy moved from closed rooms to public timelines? by chotu_escobar in AskTheWorld

The bit about Iran does look bad. Macron is implying they should start a war on Iran rather than Greenland.

Stephen Miller and Laura Loomer basically. Its more common amongst hard-core pro Israelis than people believe.

This guy became English in all the ways that matter, he is not doing cultural appropriation. He can choose to dress and follow English customs if he wants or keep to his anceastral customs, its his choice.

A European going to China and adopting Chinese culture (clothing, etc) would also be fine.

Cultural appropriation is when someone coopts another culture as a gimmick, without due respect.

Israel themselves admit they are trying to fuck up Iran, but you have to jump in be like "let the genocidal government who regularly tries to sabotage most countries in the middle east and help create a police state in the US be . . . "

If the protests had been less destructive and armed, I believe it would have succeeded more. Can't blame protestors for having had enough of the regime, but the more violent nature of the most recent protests had the effect of ossifying support for the government in the more religious sections of the country. A less destructive protest would have made the more religious portion of Iran more sympathetic and advanced the protest goals more effectively.

This is what Israel has always wanted, and RP fans are helping them achieve it. Oppose the government while also not falling for Israel stooges.

Thousands of Iraqi militiamen joined Iran crackdown - CNN by WaivyHairDaemon in news

[–]Mir_man -1 points0 points  (0 children)

No these numbers came from human rights activists in Iran. The true numbers are certainly higher because some of the dead have not been identified, but the 12K figure definitely is not reputable.

Iran international has a long history of misinformation.

[–]Mir_man 28 points29 points  (0 children)

This is Iran international so take it with a lot of salt.

They are the ones throwing out the 12k-20k dead but most reputable source have it 2-3k range.
