Independent Persian has received messages from protestors within Iran via Starlink satellite that describe a ‘war-like situation’. Amirhossein Miresmaeili reports
The problem with liberals, should I can you a liberal? The problem with liberals is they call everyone with a point they don’t understand a tankie.
We can agree that the current government is very oppressive, and we can agree that it would be great to replace them.
What we can’t seem to get across to you is that being able to show your hair everywhere and wear skirts again is not worth giving away the country’s future by giving control of your oil to the US and helping expand your genocidal neighbor Israel. That’s what’s on offer, not freedom and liberation, but liberal/secular civil laws and a puppet dictatorship to ensure you never say you’re unhappy again.
Iran will seem like it’s flourishing, western media will broadcast images of women in bikinis at the beach and the shah being celebrated in parades, economic sanctions will be removed and cost of living will improve for a lot of people, some people will be rich again as corruption runs rampant but that will be reported on as the success of capitalism. The poor will be worse off, the dictator will disappear anyone who dares question him, just like his father did. And Iran will become a country that lives off US subsidies and military contacts, like every other middle eastern country with a US puppet.
You don’t have to be a Zionist to support the fall of the Iranian regime. In my university there’s a fairly large Iranian community and bro they are begging for Donald Trump not only to bomb, but to even straight up start a full scale invasion. Especially women are so fed up man
Thats like the Cubans in Florida who want regime change. They dont represent anyone except themselves. Also Iran is diverse and there are minority groups like the Kurds who want their own state.
Most Iranians migrants are also fanatical Zionists because they think israel will make their dreams come true of dismembering Iran into half a dozen warring countries.
Also I have to add that Iran had been under crippling sanctions from the US regime and its.proxies.for over 15 years. this has eviscerated the economy and is a form of economic warfare to impoverish the population and force them yo turn against their government. It is yet another war crime the US regime engages in with abandon.
Depressing how astroturfed by Zionists Lemmmy has become.
Its becoming a micro Reddit.
I would think not supporting the Iranian regime does not instantly make one a Zionist.
I think this is really the true problem with tankies. They’ll support any oppressive regime as long as it opposes the US.
The quickest way of knowing an NPC has been indoctrinated by neocon propaganda is when they call a government that the Zionists dont like a “regime”
I guess oppressive “regimes” that do America’s bidding are fine in your book. If you’ve ever stopped to think about the inconsistency, that is.
