Oh, noes, they are saying MEAN THINGS about us.
Let's put this in reality. The Iranians elected a government that nationalized their oil wealth. The CIA overthrew that government and put the Shah in as a dictator. (Before that, he was a constitutional monarch with limited powers). For the Next 25 years, the Shah squandered Iran's oil wealth building himself palaces, while average Iranians had nothing to show for it.
The Iranians took hostages (at first radical students, but then the government got involved when the US raised the stakes by trying to invade) because the US let the Shah in for Cancer treatment. For the Iranians, they legitimately thought that we were gearing up to stage another coup against them.
The fact is, we've been punishing Iran for 47 years for picking a form of government we don't like.
A few points here. The US has also armed "proxies" in the region. We funded the Muhajedeen in Afghanistan, encouraging radical Arabs to go there to fight the Soviets. Eventually, those radicals became Al Qaeda and bit us in the ass. We funded rebels in Libya and supported them with Air power. They turned around and bit us in the ass. We armed Saddam during his war with Iran from 1981 to 1989. He turned around and bit us in the ass.
So you can't go whining that "Iran is funding terrorists" when we fund our own proxies who are just as bad.
If Israel and America can have all those weapons, why can't Iran? The US is the only country to have ever used nuclear weapons on people. We are hardly on the moral high ground here.
Well, first, the 30K number is Zionist Bullshit, but you are right, it's terrible that they are oppressing their own people. It's also none of our business. Just like what is going on in Myanmar is none of our business. Or North Korea. Or any other country that has decided they like them some strongmen.
This problem wouldn't exist if Israel Trump hadn't attacked Iran to start with.
The solution for the rest of the world would be to reach their own agreements with Iran and ignore American attempts to bring down their regime.
As a rule, governments around the globe suck. Mankind continually proves that he is unable to govern himself properly. So, the question is often asked, when does the said government become illegitimate? When should you revolt? The Founding Fathers tried to answer the same question as they revolted against the British crown. Ben Franklin once said that "It would be a thought a hard government that should tax its people one tenth part." Can you imagine what Ben would think of the United States today?
Hilarious!
But to equate the US government with that of Iran, suggesting that the US government is worse, is just absurd. First of all, the US has given us the freedom of speech to discuss such issues, something no government around the entire globe has. Don't get me wrong, they tried to do away with the said freedom with the Alien and Sedition Acts in the 1700's, something that Thomas Jefferson ran against to get elected President. He thankfully was able to overturn most of it, but what was left your idol FDR used to unconstitutionally lock up Japanese Americans during WW2 just because of their race. Yes, you think FDR was a fabulous President while stating Trump is the worst, even though Trump has never done such a racially hateful thing with US policy against any Americans based on such racism. Can you imagine a government where you cannot verbally critic Donald Trump? But the scary part is, the Left is all about censoring speech. In fact, Joe Biden helped censor speech on Twitter and other social media sites by telling them that the Hunter Biden laptop was Russian disinformation, as they dutifully censored all those stories. Afterwards, about 20% of voters said they would not have voted for him had they known. And, of course, we are all aware they censored speech over other things like the vaccine they were all mandated to receive by the Biden administration. Yes, the Left wants to censor all communication like the Iranian regimes does.
And you have to consider the question of how miserable does the said government make its own people as to whether or not it is legitimate? In other words, do they represent them? IF the said government makes them all squander around in poverty with no freedoms, they are tantamount as nothing more than slaves, drones of the state to be told what to do 24/7, or do they let the people flourish and live life to its fullest? These are all questions you should answer to see if a said government is legitimate, or should it go bye, bye?
Right now, the Left is doing everything it can to destroy the US economy as well as our freedom of speech, as Biden increased inflation like never before, and then Kamala came around wanting soul crushing taxation to follow it. So, as soon as the DNC creates a government where there is 80% poverty and no freedom of speech, get back with me on comparing them to the government of Iran.
And when has Trump murdered over 30 thousand protestors, citizens that he swore to represent? Never, that's when.
Don't worry, I have faith you can do it, especially with the midterms looking like you will sweep back into power. You can then go back to ignoring the Iranian regime murdering Americans around the globe like the good old days, as well as ignoring them creating weapons that can, for the first time, enable them to attack the US directly.
