Nuance doesn’t seem to be their strong suit

Iran got involved in Syria to fight IS, the same people that rebranded as HTS, the leader of which now has put on a suit, changed his name and rules the new Syria. One of the first thing they did: started massacring minorities in Syria by the thousands, just in the last week. Also, Syria is in the Middle East, next to Iran. Iran isn’t involved in military operations in Mexico. If IS wasn’t stopped in Iraq and Syria, they’d be massacring civilians in Iran, since Iranians are Shia and therefore heretics to be killed.

Your view unfortunately seems to have been influenced by the classification of nations as axis of evil that I referred to above. It’s confused and incoherent, and lacks a whole lot of nuance. That’s what happens when nations are classified as “evil”, which is a metaphysical religious term making nuance impossible. You say “if Palestine were suddenly freed from the Zionists”, thereby implying that you consider this a worth while goal, while simultaneously vilifying the only forces in the region working to achieve that liberation, namely Hamas, Hizbollah and Ansar Allah in Yemen, as “proxy armies” of Iran, completely delegitimizing their agency and the fight for the very liberation you seem to support.

Finally, it’s absolutely wild to state that a Palestine under the influence of Iran would be “the same shit all over again” as the almost century long oppression, occupation, dispossession and genocide carried out by the Zionists against the Palestinian people. Absolutely wild! I urge you to take a step back and consider that statement, and why you would make such an absurd and outrageous claim to begin with. Because I feel like you’re doing that without thinking about it a whole lot, and would reconsider that position if you thought about the comparison you’re making. Iran has zero designs on dispossessing or occupying Palestine and its people. To compare that with what Israel has been doing is just not a good look.

Comparing Iran to Russia and the US is strange in every way. Iran has a very defensive military, geared towards defending Iran. There aren’t exactly private military contractors from Iran everywhere just murdering anyone that isn’t snow white. Iran hasn’t surrounded the US with military bases. People just completely swallowed that axis of evil horseshit.

“Axis of evil” was a phrase coined by W in order to justify his highly illegal “war on terror”, and we’re still paying the price for that. Just adopting a propaganda concept this stupid as a viable way to categorize nations is not a good move.

I don’t think that Russia would be giving up Crimea in any case, regardless of who’s in the Whitehouse. The Donbas is a different question, they probably would’ve been prepared to give them back in whole or in part in negotiations, but I don’t think Crimea would’ve ever been up for negotiations.

How’s the actions of the top US billionaire who just practically bought the American government the fault of Putin? Nah man, the US has to shoulder the responsibility for unleashing this fucking plague on the rest of the world.

Putin has done a lot of evil shit, but this one is all US all the way. In Russia, the state is the ultimate power, as evidenced by Putin’s ultimatum to the oligarchs to bend the knee when he took power. Similar to China, where Jack Ma disappeared for a while after making critical comments on Chinese state policy, and every billionaire got the message. It’s the US that has inverted this relationship so that the state bends the knee to insane billionaires like this one and let’s them run amok. So Elon can hardly be blamed on Putin.

Well, he did use one of his kids as a human shield repeatedly when appearing in public after Luigi crossed one of their guys off the board. That’s kind of a connection?

You do know that you still have a Democrat president in the Whitehouse right now, right? You remember Genocide Joe? He’s still president, and I sure am not impressed by what the Democrats are doing to limit Israel’s expansionism. Israel being free to engage in expansionism is with, repeat after me, the Democrats still in power.

The IDF just announced that they’ve discovered a Hamas command and control center under Jimmy Wales’ khouse. It’ll be dealt with accordingly.

It’s definitely not a good precedent for governments to shut down communication platforms. But free speech is for all, and Twitter censors speech it doesn’t like, mainly left wing opinions. So I’m not going to act like free speech is the main issue here, even if I dislike governments shutting down or blocking platforms.

You know that Twitter isn’t banned in Turkiye and India because they complied with their requests for censure, since you know, those are right wing governments run by strong men that the Apartheid beby likes? Funny how free speech becomes the issue just when the requests come from governments whose ideology don’t align with this particular clown’s. GTFO with the free speech posturing, if you’re defending the free speech of a platform where it’s fine to harass trans people but you’re banned if you correctly call someone cis gendered. Free speech my ass, Twitter is a right wing cess pool, not a beacon of free discourse.

Meanwhile here in Sweden, everyone’s criminal record is public, and even available to search online. Unless the crime is something minor punished with a fine. It’s really ridiculous, everything is publicly available online, like addresses, phone numbers, the cars or pets people own. Unless you have a protected identity, it’s all available to everyone online. I tried to apply for a protected identity on account of being a public servant that is involved in making decisions many people very much dislike. But I couldn’t provide a concrete threat so it was denied. It’s like the system is still geared towards pre-internet times. The system itself in fact doxxes every resident in the country.

There is no reason to believe that this woman is not herself a Muslim.

What is Muslim to you? This is a prime example for how western people see Islam as a race, and therefore people from Iran are automatically classified as muslim.

There’s a very good reason to believe that this woman is not a muslim, and that’s the whole purpose of the article: she’s harassing Muslim women for the sole reason that they wear a piece of clothing showing that they’re Muslim. That you are unable to recognize this as what it clearly is, anti Muslim bigotry, is revealing your own bias against Muslims.
