These people are really, really relying on Americans being so fukking dumb that they'll think Iranian society is the same as Taliban-ruled Afghanistan :francis:



You are right that Iranian women are highly educated (moreso than the men), but lets not act like this isn't the same regime that murdered Mahsa Amini.

Yes, the West has a distorted view of Iran (mainly because of western propaganda).

But the way they treat women is clearly problematic.

No doubt, I support the women's movement in Iran because they still have structural barriers impinging on their freedom. But a major pillar of the American propaganda effort trying to manufacture consent for this war is based on presenting an image of Iran as some tribal desert slave market like in Team America: World Police, instead of a modern society with a higher ratio of female university enrolment than America has.

Women are treated problematically all over the globe, many of those places are staunch US allies. It would be like if China said they need to invade America because black people are being kept in slavery. Yeah, there is systemic anti-black racism here and the state unjustly murders black men, women and children, but it's a different degree than the Antebellum South.

My main point is that the American mind's perception of Iran ossified in 1979 and the only image we have is that of the scowling face of Ayatollah Khomeini. And the oleaginous Iranian diaspora has done a great job of pushing that stupid pre-revolution post-revolution meme for decades now.

I think they’re going keep incrementally asking for funds.

Especially as we enter the boots on the ground stage:



You already know the play. We need to keep tabs on Democratic traitors who vote for additional funding.

You would think the $1 trillion they get annually would be enough, But here we are… :francis:

This is why you should be as skeptical of US and Israeli propaganda as you are of Russian and Iranian. It’s the effects of a propagandized mind to think only your side is telling the truth.

Think about it logically and with reasonable skepticism. If the lack of drone launches and missile launches are so low and air dominance of the US and Israelis are so dominant, why are gulf states so pissed of at the United States at the damage their war has caused? Why are we now discussing ground troops and an increase of military force instead of decline if your dominance is so absolute? These contradict and points to maybe the news and narrative being put out is not consistent with reality.

Our government has the capacity to lie and has lied to us as much as the Russians lies to its citizens. It’s just easier to see in their case because we are inundated with counter news and messaging to their internal propaganda. Meanwhile, it’s less at the forefront of the American mind for example why CNN said they got full access to film in Iran from the government meanwhile the Israeli government has forbidden US news outlets from filming in Israel. People should ask why. Hiding information is as damning as faking information because you’d only hide information if it goes against the narrative you wish to put out there.
