    I’ve been suckered into this by knowing Iranians who don’t want to live under the Mullahs any more.

    And western meddling did not force the IRI to enact a brutal gender apartheid while also effectively putting Persian Iranians above all other ethnicities. Western meddling did not force the IRI to beat Mahsa Amini to death.

    The Regime is under constant threat? Good. They should be.

      Is Iraq better off now without Sadam? Is Syria better off now without Bashar? Is Libya better off now without Gadafi?

      I don’t like any of those previous leaders, but every single case the country was worse off after. The same will be true of Iran.

          You think it’s better off in the hands of a former Isis guy where they’re murdering Druze and other ethnic minorities while Israel has basically free reign to bomb, displace, and take land? It hasn’t become more stable after the fall brother.

      Who told you? mullahs still enjoy significant support
