    Isn’t this all because the usa is supporting Israel and Iran is pushing back against countries supporting the genocide there?

      Ah yes Iran, that great bastion of human rights where they throw gay people off buildings and stone people to death.

      Iran doesn’t give a shit about Palestinians. Instability in the region keeps them in relative power. Everything they do should be viewed in that light.

        Iran has politically, materially aligned itself with Palestinian liberation while the united states has aligned itself with Palestinian genocide. Your childish propagandized delusions about their motives are irrelevant. No amount of racist trope pushing is going to change it either.

          Because with stability, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, and Yemen would have control of the world’s trade through the Red Sea and Suez Canal. Making tons of money on shipping through the region. Their regional power is de facto because other countries in the region are unstable and can’t secure trade through the canal.

              To anyone visualizing a comically long canal running straight through like 5 countries, you’re not actually far off. Unfortunately, it’s just a railroad to Moscow.

        At least a woman can get an abortion in Iran lol. Glass houses and what not.

        Also, your country should stop supporting genocide. I believe that was the topic.

            Half of Americans still support the ongoing genocide so it’ll be a while until it clicks, in the slow one’s heads. The downvotes are funny Imo, notice there’s never any pushback.

              My friend you implied that LGBT people getting thrown off of buildings was equivalent to states banning abortion, that’s why I feel like I’m taking crazy pills.

              pushback… like arguing with the crazy people on the internet? no, that’s a giant waste of time. it’s simpler to downvote or block and move on

                No, pushback as in defense of your barbaric laws. Ignorance is bliss though, so you do you ✌️

                  Why on earth would you expect people here to defend stupid ass laws in the US? We have more reason than anyone to fucking hate them, but that doesn’t make your nonsense any less of a pointless strawman and a waste of time to respond too. Enjoy the five minutes you sucked out of life with this absolute waste of bits.

                    My guy, the comment I replied to was trying to make Iran look like a country of savages. The original comment was about America supporting Israel’s genocide. We are a species of savages.

                    Stay on fucking topic and don’t throw stones in glass houses, for fuck sake.
