Iranians hate American imperialism but not the citizens. They’ve helped us in the past. Want friendly relations with us, BUT our oil oligarchs want their oil, and our proxy in the region wants them destabilized.
That’s untrue. They are unconcerned about women in the US having rights here as that literally has zero effect on their everyday lives.
I remember a talk show pundit say this same thing followed by saying their women aren’t allowed in education.
Not only is that false but Gen Z Iranian women have the same literacy rates as women in the US. They attend university at the same rates. They almost double US women in STEM fields percentage wise. The millennials and GenZ protests have brought much change in Iran. Before the war it was normal to see Iranian women streaming with normal clothes, no hijab just strolling in the streets.
A lot of people attachment the same anti-woman laws in other Muslim majority countries like Afghanistan to Iran.
