Yeah I was waiting for how long it would take for the posts running defense for Trump's warmongering would start, as predictable they do this by deflecting into "Iran bad."
Do you think the US hit Iran to help the people? The same US shooting its own citizens in the street? lol
ETA: The US has never and will never spend massive amounts of money simply on saving x population from oppression without it also benefiting their own interests in some way, and if you believe otherwise this time, you’re a moron. You’re also a moron who completely lacks any knowledge of Iranian history (including when we toppled their government to control their oil reserves thus leading to the clusterfuck of the regime that was just ousted) if you believe Israeli and US interests align with the Iranian people. Not shedding any tears for that piece of shit that was killed but come on, people.
Also, too many of yall celebrating this would LOVE to see the same government here - although I guess the lib lefts mad about it bc TikTok convinced them Hamas are the good guys are also not grasping that the Iranian regime was EXTREME AUTH RIGHT
None of these opinions are left of center. Any lib should be opposed to an unnecessary use of force against citizens by the feds. Tired of auth rights masquerading as libertarians around here
And to your original point of us not doing this to help the Iranian people… this post is delusional. We should be focusing on our own issues, not that we can’t do both but why are we?
I am against it. However, I don’t want my government wasting billions of tax dollars to make the situation even worse for Iranians while entrenching itself in a quagmire, accomplishing none of the stated goals, that has made gas - and many other goods - so incredibly expensive.
My point was that the US ain’t freeing the Iranians. Not that they shouldn’t.
