This online article by Mike Bski is a masterpiece.
I think I finally got it figured out. The reason Democrats — and only Democrats — side with Iran.
Not “only American politicians.” I mean globally. Every. Single. Country on the planet. Left-wing governments, right-wing governments, center governments — every democratic nation on earth looked at Iran during Operation Epic Fury and said no. RUSSIA stepped back. Russia, who propped Iran up geopolitically for decades, found a line they would not cross.
Democrats stepped forward.
That is not a foreign policy miscalculation. That is not “nuance.” That is not some galaxy-brained geopolitical chess move by people whose foreign policy credentials I have watched evaporate in real time. No. I spent a long time trying to figure out what possible logical framework explains it, and I landed on the only answer that fits everything.
ENVY.
They are jealous. Genuinely, deeply, embarrassingly jealous of what Iran built. Once you see it, you cannot unsee it — and I am about to make sure you cannot un-see it either.
…..
You back? Good.
Women in miniskirts on Tehrani streets. Packed nightclubs. University campuses full of men AND women studying side by side. Tehran looked like Paris. A thriving, cosmopolitan, Westernized republic with a growing middle class and real civil liberties, and people who were — imagine this — actually free. Iran was not always what it is today. It used to be something the Left would have CELEBRATED.
One revolutionary movement. That is all it took. The free press — gone. Independent courts — gone. Political opposition — imprisoned, executed, or exiled. Religion captured and repackaged as a control mechanism. The entire population engineered to need the government for food, for fuel, for work, for survival. Dissent became economically catastrophic. Socially suicidal. Sometimes literally fatal.
They took a free country. Built a cage around every living person in it. And called it a revolution.
Then 1979 happened.
The American Left watches that and does not see a horror story.
They see a blueprint.
— THE PLAYBOOK, PIECE BY PIECE —
Let me walk through exactly what Iran built and exactly what the American Left is trying to reconstruct here. Not as a rhetorical exercise. As a factual checklist.
TAKE THE GUNS FIRST
After 1979, Iran moved quickly. Deliberately. Systematically. Civilian firearm ownership was restricted, then effectively eliminated for ordinary citizens outside of regime-approved contexts. Today Iran has roughly 7 firearms per 100 civilians. The government does not view an unarmed population as a safety measure. They view it as a PREREQUISITE for everything else on this list. Because it is.
Venezuela. Hugo Chavez passed Venezuela’s gun ban in 2012. Disarmament was framed as a public safety measure, because it is always framed as a public safety measure. In the years that followed, Venezuela’s homicide rate did not drop — it climbed to among the highest on earth. The guns did not disappear. They just moved from law-abiding citizens to regime loyalists and criminal networks the regime found useful. The people who could have resisted were left with nothing.

In 1963, Congressman A.S. Herlong Jr. read 45 Communist Goals into the Congressional Record. Goal #20: infiltrate the press. Goal #21: gain control of radio, television, and motion pictures.
Iran did not infiltrate anything. They seized it by force in 1979 and have run state media ever since — Press TV, Fars News, Tasnim — propaganda infrastructure that produces whatever narrative the regime needs and never, ever issues corrections because corrections are not the point.
The American Left could not take the press by force. So they did something arguably more efficient. They captured the institutions that produce the people who run it. Journalism schools that openly abandoned the concept of balanced reporting and replaced it with advocacy framing. Hollywood donor records that run 99.7% Democratic. Social media content moderation boards staffed entirely by ideological allies who make decisions about what is and is not “misinformation” and who somehow always seem to reach the same partisan conclusions. They did not need guns. They had tenure committees and graduate programs and platform enforcement policies.

— THE VOTE —
March 5th, 2026. H.Res.1099. Non-binding. Zero dollars. No military authority. One sentence, essentially: Iran is the world’s leading state sponsor of terrorism — a fact the State Department has documented since Ronald Reagan was in office.
372 to 53.
Every single Nay vote: Democrat.
One hundred fifty-seven Democrats voted yes — I will give them that. But 53 members of the United States Congress looked at that piece of paper and voted to protect Iran’s reputation. On the same day Operation Epic Fury had our service members taking fire in the Middle East.
No nation on earth stood with Iran. Not Canada. Not Europe. Not our Asian allies. Not Russia — who finally found one line they would not cross. Fifty-three American Democrats voluntarily stepped into the void Russia walked away from.

I wrote the full breakdown here:
I am asking genuinely. Not rhetorically. If I am wrong about what this pattern reveals, someone tell me why — when the entire world stepped back — only American Democrats stepped forward.
But what do I know — I am only a science teacher who spent 23 years studying patterns, a few of them in a country where the people running this exact disinformation machine would have killed the girls I was escorting to school, for the crime of wanting an education. Maybe I am reading too much into it. Or maybe the pattern is just that obvious and I am the only one saying it out loud.
Commentary:
Great thesis by Mike Bski, although it's quite long. However, rather than read just my excerpts the reader should go to the original and full read before responding.
This article is full of truth. We are being 'governed' by true wannabe terrorists in our own Congress. We are in the 10th week of a Democrat shut down od government in a fight for our lives! People don't care enough to look at the facts this article lays out, and that is why we are slowly losing our country.
Each day that does by continues to expose the fact that Democrats are some of the sickest, corrupt and most actively evil people ever to exist. including RINOs'.
The MAIN reason the Democrats do everything for and against conservatives is to keep themselves from getting charged and convicted
Giving top secrets to China and other unfriendly countries and taking bribes and kickback from Big Corporations, Insurance companies and even foreign enemies
Stealing the 2020 elections and the attempted Coup d' etat of the 45th President of the United States
Thinking they could even go to jail for some of those things. Democrats are primarily afraid of that. Desperation to keep their own derriere in power and out of jail
"Modern day Iran" today -- Muslim women forced to wear burkas for various reasons, but the main reason is that they wear one to stay alive, a far cry from the 1950's under the Shah!
Democrat's support Iran Mullahs because they've achieved what Democrats have failed to do in America.
There are eight levels of control needed to create a socialist state:
1) Healthcare – Control healthcare to control the people.
2) Poverty – Increase poverty level as high as possible because poor people are easier to control and will not fight back if you are providing everything for them to live for free.
3) Debt – Increase the debt to an unsustainable level, increasing taxes and producing more poverty.
4) Gun control – Remove people’s ability to defend themselves and force people to become dependent on the government for their safety.
5) Welfare – Control of every aspect of people’s lives (food, housing and income).
6) Education – Control what people watch, read and listen to and what children learn in school.
7) Religion – Remove the belief in God from the government and schools.
8) Class warfare – Divide the wealthy and the poor causing discontent and making it easier to tax the wealthy with the support of the poor.
Islamic and Communist goals = Democrat goals.
