That's not Iran saying that it killed thousands of protesters. Of course, Al Jazeera wrote it in a way such that if you want to read it that way, you will.
I think if the people killed were predominantly security forces and innocent bystanders that would have been emphasized a lot more by state media, and it would have been cast as a terror attack instead of insurrection.
I promise you they weren’t shy about using the T word, I can find more examples if you want, and videos of people shooting at cops
The quoted statement by Iran literally did emphasize precisely that, the rest was editorializing and quoting "respectable western organizations" by Al Jazeera.
This is cope. A lot of people were killed. Whether you think it was justified is another thing but accept it. This place went crazy last month when Good and Pretti were killed by ICE. Two people.
The only thing I'm responding to is your assertion that Iran said that they killed thousands of protesters which was not factual.
Inocente bystanders and policemen, stop spreading western propaganda.
You can not like something a country does and also not want that country to be bombed. Because let's be real: the people who did the killing aren't getting justice. Did those 150 girls deserve to die because some police thug was doing police thug shit?
Two things can be true?
Call me AALewis because I'm going to quote myself again.
Correct! That is what I am saying. I am further saying that lying about what the country did because you don't want it to be bombed is stupid. I am attracted to socialism because I want to understand and act within the world as it is.
That's obviously what he is saying. Everyone else in this thread is saying something else. Why did you pick the one person who understands this to reply to?
That wasn't clear when the comment read
Which IMO sounds like bait. Either you're implying that we are racist or xenophobic because there's a stronger reaction to two white Americans being killed than some brown women overseas, or you're calling Hexbear hypocritical. I don't believe either of these things are true.
I believe we hate America and want to see the burger Reich burn to the ground and don't need to waffle around who is doing the bombing. The Americans need to be punished because they're a bunch of greedy, selfish, incredibly stupid and racist people who make the entire world worse for being here. There's some good Americans but they're outnumbered by all flavors of liberalism.
I don't care if Iran wins, I just want murica to lose
I literally didn't say any of that. You need to start reading usernames or something.
Also, it was clear. I understood it before I had read their clarification, which is why I commented.
Whatever I don't care enough to fight on this. Not worth my time.
Two white people died, people die every day, they just don't count them as people here
I wouldn't go that hard as that because I think this place is better about that than most, but yeah that is the general miasma in which we swim every day in the west.
What’s the implication made by mentioning good and pretti?
Imagine even, say, a few hundred protesters dying here. What would be the reaction?
What conversations do you wish were happening that aren’t?
I think it’s a very interesting conversation about what it means, within a humanistic project, to support a government that killed a bunch of people who you plausibly would have been among if you had been born there.
What is humanism? Killing families is bad, I still don’t forsake the red army for decisions made when under attack. Every anti imperial project in history has killed people, the IRI has its fair share of blood. Nevertheless, Zionism must be eradicated
Imagine if a bunch of sinagoged got firebombed, people wouldn't simpatjize with the protesters.
