Eh, it can get bad sometimes but it has its moments. I'm actually grateful for the bad times when I experience clarity. They allow me to introspect, reevaluate and grow.
I genuinely hope you find what you need, but not what you're looking for, of course.
Peace.
You're all good with me, just joking around. Take care of yourself. The confusion is expected, Westerners have been taught to deal with the world through abstractions. If you want to be critical of other countries it's especially important to be detailed. People have no cultural or political understanding of Iran. Instead of looking at the rules they follow, people will write entire articles speculating about their decisions first. Because if they tried to understand, they wouldn't have their fancy journalism job... come back anytime for more homespun thug wisdom
All worldviews have blind spots, but it's only easy to spot those of our adversaries. Take care of yourself as well. Good nickname, btw. Very you.
