I want to dispel the narrative of Iran being evil; that they were mowing down protestors (lol) and some ways to convince people to uncritically side with Iran in this conflict

books are fine, but I read too slowly for me to actually get ready fast enough Western narratives contradicting itself would be a good start Maybe common views? I just need a guideline so I don't get caught flat on my ass looking for citations on something I wasn't prepared for, thanks

They live in 3 month cycles, and probably think Syria is good actually

Besides, with Epstein derangement syndrome and trump they're all attributing it to not America but trump so it doesn't actually prevent them from saying it's two bad people fighting and America 'is slightly less bad'

Just remind them that all those countries were "run by evil regimes" too, and bombing them to shit and replacing their leaders just made conditions worse. If they want to lay it all on Trump, then ask them why they're supporting his murderous foreign policy I guess.
