    I dunno man there doesn’t seem to be the conditions for a self actualising revolution atm and isreal and the usa are undoubtably interfering. I mean the shah prince? the lion and sun flag? really?

    Don’t get me wrong, braindead monarchists exist in iran and the diaspora in the same approximate proportion as every where stained by that transgression but this doesn’t seem like it’s going to lead to a government that cares for the people.

    I hope I’m wrong but I am distinctly lukewarm on this. The current gov has been pretty effective at preventing organising and using misogyny as a wedge to divide the people.

      Yes, it’s very likely there’s strong interference, but I also think that people put entirely too much faith on a rapidly collapsing empire like the USA and entirely too little faith on the people doing shit. I hope their revolution succeeds and then they turn their gifted arms against their wannabe manipulators and do their own thing. It wouldn’t be be the first or last time US interference has spectacularly backfired on them.

      What I will say is that the only ones at fault for the revolution, as the corrupt theocrats at the top which have been so spectacularly bad at governing (and being decent human beings), they caused this.

      At the end of the day, what some internet randos say on an obscure forum matters not at all. It’s just an excuse for more purity testing of allies.

        Yeah fair.

        I am not very hopeful personally, and my own opinions are largely relegated to shitting on people who think a king will solve problems and don’t know shit about why the theocracy was seen as a better alternative.
