    There is a lot to unpack here honestly. Let me say first that I support the Iranian people in their quest for reforms. For me the second thing is history.

    The US has had its hand in regime change in Iran for a long time going back to the 1950s. They helped install a dictator and remove an elected democratic leader. This arguably lead to the revolution.

    So people who know history are a little bit bitter with the US and allies bombing the fuck out of Iran while calling their people to rise up.
