Would you be more or less supportive of Iran if they were woke atheists who were fine with killing civilians & didn't announce defensive attacks or accept surrenders?

It's just a question don't get all up in my face this time. Personally I think Islam is underrated. They clearly take that shit more seriously than Whitoids take Christianity. Mexican Catholics or Shias who do we rank up top?

I'm going to be forwarding your responses to the Ayatollah so please take this seriously. Please don't be mean to me again.

  • I don't really care what color a sock puppet is in order to determine the amount of support I have for its military conflicts.

    Iran is just a vessel for another, more powerful and influential country's foreign policy and you know this is true. Do I really have to mention it?

    I'm not going to be mean to you, but I am going to be straight. People who have half a brain know what you are doing and we don't appreciate being manipulated. Your entry point's propaganda machine, while impressive, only strengthens the notion of how dishonest and toxic you are willing to get in order to turn our people against each other.

    Please stop.

    You may actually believe you are on the right side of history. If this is the case, I feel bad for you. There is no right side of history. There are no good guys. There is no moral authority. There are only outcomes.

    What kind of outcome would you expect from an actual direct confrontation between the two current contenders to the throne? Keep peddling these kinds of messages all around the internet and this is the outcome we will both find.

    I don't want this outcome and I'd expect you to understand it is undesirable as well.

    Stop feeding the monster, please.

  • To answer your question while ignoring your dishonesty, bias and ulterior motives:

    I would be exactly the same level of annoyed. I have a distrust for any government especially when they play war or when they threaten others.

    That said, some governments have proven to be more straightforward and predictable than others, and I definitely prefer those. That doesn't mean I'm gonna fall in love with one soon, these things only lead to authorianism and I think we can agree between Hitler and Mussolini that's not an aspiring state to live in.

    I would love to have a nuanced conversation, because as someone from Europe, I do have a very nuanced view on all of this and I feel bad for the civilians who get caught in the crossfire of these conflicts, but unfortunately you are basically killing any platform where these nuanced conversations are possible when you're trying to strengthen your position by using rhetorical questions.

    There's no winners in discussions, and they are only productive if everyone is there to speak, listen, and learn. And that way I can understand why the hell you are doing what you're doing and maybe respect you a bit, while you understand the same about and stop trying to "catch" other people in something. Because that's not what these communities are for and you are being an asshole.

  • Disclaimer: large majority of Iran is secular. They still share these values to some extent. Perhaps the libs are out baying for blood, I may not have seen it. There was a lot to keep up with a week ago.
