    The Ayatollah is the spiritual leader of the Islamic Republic of Iran

    Jeffery Epstein is the spiritual leader of the 2025 USA regime

      The morons orchestrating these attacks are doing so to distract other morons from the sex and child trafficking crimes they committed.

      Morons all the way down. Unfortunately these morons have access to ballistic missiles.

      He did, as much as he could once he learned shit was going down, but it turns out Iran’s intelligence, air defense and operational security all suck so he died in his bunker. He’s killed almost as many Iranians in a couple months of protests as Netanyahu has killed Palestinians since the Oct 7 attacks. Bibi is absolute trash, but to pretend like Khamenei was better in any way is insane. They’re both completely evil cowards.

        Iran has been terrible at everything so far. I keep joking that they put huge arrows you can see from space with the naked eye showing where all their leaders, scientists, and generals are.

        Iran must know they’re infiltrated from top to bottom by Israel, no? Especially after those “abandoned trucks” filled with drones thing?

      the way my Iranian friends have put it as they celebrate the death of the head of the regime and brace themselves for the impact of the new regime is that when you live under opression all your live, you learn to celebrate the small stuff, even as you know what’s coming will also be bad

          There’s already a war against them by their own government that’s killed over 30,000 Iranians since late December. Civilians are being slaughtered either way, but this way means that maybe the Ayatollahs won’t be in power at the end.

          i will not tell them how to think or feel. the old regime killed their families. the new regime will likely finish the job. iran, israel, the united states. none are working or fighting on behalf of the Iranian people. i will help them as they work to survive, but i will not moralize to them that they’re wrong to feel how they feel about things that impact them directly

          especially considering that over 100 schoolgirls were murdered in the process.

          if a bomb killed 150 children and also took out Trump, I wouldn’t celebrate it

              that’s the point. make sure there are always people who hate America with all their soul. so there’s always a justification for the US to be a military state.

    Every so often I am reminded Reddit liberals (who just weren’t honest enough to stay there with their MAGA friends, who are closer to them than they are to anyone outside of the Western sphere) also came here. Oh well.

    This shit is no joke, man, the US backed a coup and when it wasn’t successful enough they murdered people, and this is not even the first time in the span of a year (in this country). And American imperialism is always, always, on the wrong side of history and ethics, because they’re amoral geopolitical moves made to enrich Western aristocrats, loss of life is not even part of the equation. Stop it already, you don’t have to be Greta but at least you can understand this is nothing but violence for the sake of control by the usual villains, and not make fun of it all.

        Genuine political change has to come from the people who live under it. If Trump got blown up tomorrow, it would no more change US politics than this is gonna do anything for Iranians. If you want a people to rise up against their “dictator” give them space to decide the best course of actions for themselves.

        Why should Iranian citizens look on this as a good thing, take it as an opportunity overturn the system, when the country that bombed and ransacked their neighbors for 20+ years is looming like a vulture?

        Your heart seems to be in the right place but you’re largely misinformed, or taking things in a vacuum. Regardless, is it America’s place to bomb yet another country, yet another group of people who haven’t attacked them first, for whatever reason you might think?

      We need to just start shitposting in every community, because everything is shitpost, and to deny that is to deny life. When you wake up in the morning, that’s shitpost. When you drink a cup of coffee, that’s shitpost. Drive to work, shitpost. It’s all shitpost, and so I think all we can do is shitpost everywhere.

        Everything is politics. Saying “no politics” is politics. The unwillingness to understand this is arguably a huge part of the problem, particularly in democratic systems. Every breath you take from the moment you are born until the moment you die is both a function of, and contributes towards a political zeitgeist which spans centuries in both directions. At best, an individual’s attempt at “avoiding” politics merely cedes a portion of their own agency to others, which is again, a political act.

          are you justifying a warcrime against a school because they could have died in the future???

          If you get murdered, is the murderer innocent because it is possible someone else would have murdered you later?

                  if someone else wants to kill you, does that give me the moral right to kill you first?
