    I also have Iranian acquaintances, they’re dumb as shit and haven’t visited the country in their entire lives. They’d rather believe whatever bullshit western media / monarchists tell them to believe because they want to be accepted. Lies upon lies. Have you seen any videos from within Iran? They’re out there, in 2026 you can find videos that aren’t just on the news. I saw videos of terrorists with american weapons shooting into crowds of people, burning down mosques, killing police officers. Is this the fault of Iran? They did the same with every color revolution so far. Fund ideological nazis / wahhabists with billions of dollars in an attempt to overthrow a government. We just saw it with Syria, the playbook is the same.
















  • The US withdrew from Vietnam because they lost a shit ton of their own troops, as well as getting their asses handed to them during the Tet Offensive.

    The USSR and China also played a huge role diplomatically to get them to withdraw.

    No amount of peaceful protest can shake the war machine.

    To add to this: after the Kent State shooting, 58% of those who were polled placed the blame on the students, 11% blamed the national guard, and 31% just wanted to grillexpressed no opinion.

    There was a poll done 50 years after the shooting, 16% blamed the students, 29% blamed the national guard, 27% expressing no opinion, and the rest blaming Nixon or governor Rhodes.

    Peaceful protest doesn’t do shit to change public opinion, especially not now when it isn’t covered by zionist media.
