Are we confusing governments for the civilians who live under their rule?

Did you know you can do both? Cheer the dick holes getting bombed by the dick holes? True story. Cheering dick holes is bad mmmkay.

Iran has multiple orders of magnitude on its hands - gay or otherwise - than any country that supports Israel.

If you can understand why people cheered on the British Empire during World War Two - even though it was one of the most brutal, genocidal entities in history - but can't understand why people would critically support Iran now, you are just a white supremacist.

Meaning Isreal is behaving worse than them

Ay yes, Iran, so progressive

Yes this is what the Iranian government y'all god-damn mental broads are cheering on does

Disgusting

Isreal is backing the party that wants to do that in my country. Fuck em

Fun fact. Irans executions of gay people in its entire history didn't happen until after the Islamic revolution. Before then and all the way even before the rise of Islam, whatever state that occupied Iran now all had harsh laws against homosexuals...

But enforced none. Not during pre-Roman times, Roman times, early Islamic era, medieval Islamic era, modern Islamic era. None. Not until the 80s did it happen.

It means Iran absolutely can return to a time when homosexuals were at least ignored by the law.

I'm not cheering for either of them and wish they both get what they deserve.

Yeah watching Iran and Israel fight I don't really feel bad for either side. Does suck for the civilians in the middle though.

There is concept on the left called "critical support" it broadly means we agree with that one thing you are doing, but we also do not agree with other things.

In this case we can say: For sure killing LGBTQ+ people is not good, but striking a country that is currently carrying out a genocide is a good thing.

P.S. if you have better source for critical support please send.

Thanks to Project 2025, the USA is not far behind Iran.

If one tribe is bad, the other one must automatically be the good one.

There can never be such a thing as TWO bad tribes fighting each other.

America literally executes Down's people.

So now what? We're supposed to cheer on Israel, who literally starves children, because sometimes Iran does things as bad as we do?

Twist your brain more into a pretzel, why don't you.

I'm somewhere along the lines of "I just hope both teams have fun", but the opposite of that

Wishing both sides a very happy total collapse of their existing state
