dank memes

Rules:

  1. All posts must be memes and follow a general meme setup.

  2. No unedited webcomics.

  3. Someone saying something funny or cringe on twitter/tumblr/reddit/etc. is not a meme. Post that stuff in /c/slop

  4. Va*sh posting is haram and will be removed.

  5. Follow the code of conduct.

  6. Tag OC at the end of your title and we'll probably pin it for a while if we see it.

  7. Recent reposts might be removed.

  8. Tagging OC with the hexbear watermark is praxis.

  9. No anti-natalism memes. See: Eco-fascism Primer

The west also frames a Schrödinger's Iran, where everyday people are simultaneously successfully brainwashed into religious extremism, yet hate their government and wish to return to the 70's US puppet monarchy

There's actually credible evidence 80-90% of Iranians privately support a secular government! But that doesn't at all mean they oppose their government's assessments on the US & Israel. Iranians have a wide range of beliefs, but the majority seem to be anti-imperialist, secularist, and/or socialist. Iran would very obviously have a Marxist government if it weren't for US interference
