What the lemmy libs really don't get is that even if not every protestor is Mossad, the protests are caused by illegal sanctions of the country with the express purpose of starving people to the point of desperation so that western countries and their puppet Shah can resume resource extraction and using Iran as a geopolitical pawn. They do not care about anything else, everything else westerners are bringing up are not relevant to what is going on - gay people, women's rights, workers rights, kurdish nationalism, baloch nationalism, MeK or any other thing besides destroying the industrial capacity of the world and enforcing periphery politics on the Iranian people. No one with understanding of Iran wants another power vacuum where material conditions will definitely get worse for everyone.
