    Never trust a fascist nation to tell the truth about it’s enemies, especially when those enemies are communists.

    You’d think it’d be obvious by now, especially after Iran, but some people really need it beaten in

      The US is lying through their teeth about Iran, but Iran is hardly a communist government. They’re a theocratic authoritarian regime. There is no diversification of power in their government. Roles and responsibilities may be delegated out, but ultimate authority rests with the Ayatollah.

        I’m not saying Iran is communist, I’m saying it doesn’t matter. If the US considers you an enemy, your reputation will be buried under a deluge of bullshit, one myth stacked on top of another, until the average american conversation about you essentially becomes collaborative fanfiction.
