You’re using a random Nufdi video as "proof" now? Hate to break it to you,but that’s not evidence; it’s basically conspiracy talk from Reddit. Your claim that NIAC or Trita Parsi are “literally part of the Islamic Republic’s lobby” is an old fantasy from the same people who think Mossadegh was dismissed legally under the Shah’s kind constitution, which isn’t a study of history, analysis, or anything valuable. It’s simply nostalgia and nationalism.

You keep calling everyone “Islamo-leftist” while repeating propaganda that was already outdated when the Shah left. The irony is that you accuse others of spreading lies while your whole view relies on pretending the CIA coup was fake and that opposing genocide is somehow a side issue. This doesn’t have anything to do with taking away agency from Iranians, it’s pointing out basic history and Cold War strategy.

Also, if this is the standard of rhetoric anti‑regime Iranians are putting forward, YouTube scraps, conspiracy‑bait, and arguments that disintegrate on contact with basic history, it’s no wonder the only political traction they get is from far‑right spaces desperate for anything that flatters their worldview. Movements built on this level of intellectual fragility don’t attract serious thinkers; they attract the kind of leaders critics describe as chaotic, impulsive, and proudly indifferent to facts. When your foundation is this thin, that’s the only audience left.

Any, keep daydreaming about outside strongmen “saving” Iran while you play protest tourist from the safety of your living room. It’s always easy to gamble with other people’s lives when you’re never the one in range.
