Sure, and both parties in the war between America and Afghanistan don’t deserve support and yet only one side lost hundreds of thousands if not a million people
And both parties in the war between America and Iraq don’t deserve support and yet only one side lost hundreds of thousands if not a million people (on top of the million murdered via sanctions)
And both parties in the government overthrow of Libya by America don’t deserve support and yet only one side had their infrastructure bombed, and went from being the most successful country in their continent to a failed state
I’m about forty and have no idea if you’re older than me but clearly age doesn’t guarantee wisdom
Also the people the Iranian government killed were literally armed, there’s literally footage of them shooting people; I have zero faith in the sources claiming those numbers and the Iranian government is 100% justified in taking out violent, armed traitors, which even our own government said had mossad embedded between them
I’ll absolutely talk smack about the Iranian government when their country is safe, like I would with comprador states, but in a time when Iran is fighting for its life I’ll offer critical (only slightly critical) support; even the anti-government Iranians began seeking national unity after Israel literally bombed five hospitals and apartment buildings in the 12 day war; they’re not stupid, they know what their enemies are going to do to them. You AREN’T supporting the Iranian people if you aren’t supporting the ones fighting back and keeping the country safe; if not the Iranian government, who else in Iran is fighting Israel and America?
Go to hell


Me in Qatar, hearing the missiles and knowing the troops can hear it a lot louder but for a lot shorter of a period



In all honesty, neither party deserves any good luck.
The Iranian government during the 12 day war focused on military targets, and when they struck targets in other countries in the Middle East they also focused on military targets, and this is why the civilian casualty rate was either nothing or next to nothing (not Iran’s fault Israel stuck their military headquarters in cities to use their people as human shields), Israel struck at least five hospitals in Iran and apartment buildings, the literal only defense of the Iranian people is their government, the literal only body able to render help and protection is their own government
To echo avatar of vengeance, Fuck you


One thing I find concerning for this sudden hostility is that the Taliban recently announced that if America goes to war with Iran they’ll join in on Iran’s side


and something like this should never have happened to them.”
Indeed, America is a thing that should never have happened to anyone


So just clarify, Russia, which we were all promised would drop a nuke on Ukraine, still hasn’t (and won’t, let’s be real; this is Russia, not America), while America is most likely about to conduct their second (third if you count Hiroshima and Nagasaki as separate incidents) nuclear attack?
And you just know the news is gonna whitewash this


This should be horrifying people worldwide a lot more than it barely currently does


They don’t see Palestinians as humans but they see them as human enough to steal their organs for themselves
(CW: a scene mentioned in one of Ursula Le Guin’s book that talks about SV)
I’m reminded of a scene in Ursula’s book ‘the word for world is forest’ where the violently racist military colonizers refer to the indigenous race living on the planet as animals and one of the newcomers to the planet who was present asks them about how they’ve forced themselves on the women of that race and asks that if they don’t see them as people, then do they believe they had been engaging in bestiality


Ah, thanks


What does wumao mean? I’ve read twitter posts by Chinese users who use it against…I think anti-China Asian Americans?
The part of the story Cleetus didn’t share


The CIA openly admits to spying on people around the world and everyone’s reaction is now ‘Oh you’
Somehow (constant media propaganda most likely) they’ve convinced people that to do ANYTHING you have to get your hands dirty; that ‘ANYTHING’ however is rarely or only slightly in our benefit, it’s of a bigger benefit to an elite few instead. Even if you ascribe to ‘the ends justify the means’, the ends aren’t worth it and the means are just getting more and more horrific and we’re assuming the imperial boomerang isn’t on its way back.

Yeah, it’s true 
Sanctions are a tool of war and should absolutely be called out for it
Also Rudy Giuliani celebrating the sanctions working, excitedly saying Iranian men and women are starving, and that Iranian men are being forced to sell their organs, excitedly saying this as evidence of sanctions working to a cheering crowd of fellow vampires.
Let’s not forget Israel bombing apartment buildings and hospitals in Iran and the Shah’s (son?) defending it saying they weren’t targeting civilians and that Iranians in Iran should continue supporting Israel, or Iranian AMERICANS who support everything Israel does in Iran regardless of how many civilians they kill cause they’re in America safe and sound; legit, I am all in favor of deporting Iranian Americans who support Israel back to Iran to get front row seats to America and Israel’s ‘liberation’ of Iran.


Spare us the crocodile tears
I still remember the deep confusion a lib I know got when I told him Taiwan supports Israel, lol
