No dude, you’re underestimating Iran’s regime. When I still lived in Iraq, they would literally pay school children pocket change so they could stand around and manufacture a crowd while their propped up proxy politicians give a pro-Iranian speech. This is their genuis idea to convince Iraqis that they’re actually popular in our communities.
Do you think that America doesn’t do similar shit on an infinitely larger scale? Because we do. Fuck paying for a crowd, WE OVERTHROW DEMOCRATICALLY ELECTED LEADERS.
Maybe a decade ago.

This isn’t praise for iran. What you say is entirely believable.
We’re on the same page, I’m just trying to express how low the Iranian regime is willing to go.
And im saying i don’t see a huuuuuge difference.
The americans are a bit better on balance right now, but trying their best to be much much worse. So im considering the two about even.
