      The thing with people like you is you’re informed solely by Western imperial war propaganda, which has whole agencies devoted to smearing those who pose a threat to US hegemony. The reality is this is a world made up of sovereign nations who have been largely threatened, sanctioned, and attacked by the US empire since its inception, especially those who are communist or who have been communist in the past.

        So you’re denying the Iranians have killed thousands of their own people? Even though they’ve admitted it.

        You’re denying they’re an authoritarian theocracy that trampled on the rights of women. Even though they admit it.

        Your whole shtick is “I know the Iranian government is terrible, but I’m incapable of admitting it and instead I’ll just try and make excuses”.

        I’m bored of you, and stop following me around like some weird fucking stalker.
