Brother, I have in laws in Iran. The regime is a brutal pile of dog turd, but at least they have the decency to just cultural genocide the kurds and not do an actual one.

They aren't the good guys, they are the smaller pile of shit.

Israel has a larger nuclear arsenal right now.

The IR brutalizes its people, but doesn't treat other countries directly that way

It would be political suicide

Auf Grund von persönlichen Verstrickungen hasse ich die IR ziemlich. Jeder Angriff auf IRGC oder Basij ist mir willkommen, aber das hier ist so verstörend dumm, dass ich keine Worte mehr finden kann. Der Iran sollte im besten Falle keine Atommacht werden, aber das lässt sich niemals über Israelische Luftangriffe verhindern.

Da greift ein genozidaler Staat mit Unterstützung der USA nicht nur nukleare Ziele an, sondern bombardiert auch Wohngegenden in einem Staat, mit dem es nicht offiziell im Krieg ist. Was soll noch passieren, damit der Westen endlich seine Unterstützung einstellt?

Good point, I concede

Re: Chattel Slavery: Egypt after the 7th century, Subsaharan Africa and after the Trans-Atlantic trade was shut down, the trans-saharan and red sea trade continued to ship Chattel slaves to the Middle East. Mauretania abolished it's Chattel Slavery system legally in 1981, but the practice continues to this day.

Everywhere, where humans established empires, they dehumanized and colonized. Claiming that somehow western Europeans specifically are inherently more prone to doing that.

Even the claim "since Jesus' birth" false. In the meantime, especially in the early years, there were larger empires than the "western European" ones.

God I hate this myth. The Eastern world had its fair share of absolute dehumanization, be it the extreme brutality in education systems (Pol Pot claimed to have been beaten senseless by teachers multiple times for minor infractions and he had seen this as normal), the Mongol Empire razing cities on a monthly basis or the countless bloody civil wars in Chinese history. Name me a culture and I will name you the ways in which they dehumanized others.

I am judging the extreme level of force after something so minor as a stolen chip.

"nooo, don't call the fascists fascists, they are just conservatives pining for a non-existent, ethnopurist, mythical past while deporting people to camps using emergency powers. That's like, totally not fascism."
