Why are you so afraid to answer the one extremely relevant question that will reveal whether supporting the toppling of a designated US enemy's government in a time of war is a good idea or not? Is it maybe because you know the answer won't look good for you? Is that why you immediately turned into a petulant teenager whining at me to "fuck off"?
It's really very straightforward. I'll even simplify the question for you.
Did US-led regime change make life for the people in Lybia or Syria better, or worse?
Take as long as you need champ.
I don't, that's just me in my normal everyday state 🖕
And I won't argue from a standpoint that's not mine. So, yeah, "fuck off".
How sad for you
Oh cool, so you don't support US-backed color revolution in Iran after all?
I'm fine with it 😊
Iranian people don't want that, they are aware of the ramifications of their actions, and I'm not arrogant enough to believe my pale ass knows better than them from the confines of my shithole western country.
You seemingly don't know better, judging by how eager you are to support the exact same imperial ventures with the thinnest possible coat of "this is totally what the people of the country we're targeting want bro" paint slapped on. Were you also posting about how "Venezuelans are celebrating" earlier this year?
How are Lybia and Syria doing?
I listen to people. People say what they want. I say "these people want that".
I listened to Venezuelans. Venezuelans pro or anti Maduro overwhelmingly said they didn't want that. I say "Venezuelans didn't want that".
Kill the yank inside of you please.
Edit: Fuck, I'd respect you more if you could admit that there's a grassroots movement going on in Iran right now, but that it doesn't align with what you think is the best move in the geopolitical game.
Nice line of bullshit, very convenient for your western leftist imperial pretenses of solidarity. Unfortunately, recent history has shown these pretenses to be exactly as anti-imperialist as the bloodthirsty empire they ultimately serve, which is why you desperately avoid acknowledging Lybia and Sryia. Just a shot in the dark: I'm guessing you also support the nazi puppet government in Ukraine.
Did regime change in Lybia and Syria make life better for the people there, or worse? You try to avoid this question like the plague, and I won't let you.
Saw the edit?
Ukrainian people actually. I'd like them to not have a boot on the neck, whoever wears it.
And I won't give you satisfaction, as hard as you may type 🤷♀️
"Teehee you can't make me face the consequences of my ideology!"
You run from the mention of Lybia and Syria because you're fully aware that taking even a cursory look at the outcome of what you support reveals you to be both full of shit and an intellectual coward🤷♂️
You avoid acknowledging the grassroots movement in Iran because it would make you a bad big poopoo 🤷♀️
We'll reach double rainbow soon at this rate.
Just like the grassroots movements in Lybia and Syria, right?🙂
What about it?
They were totally real grassroots movements, right?
You tell me, my superior USian friend!
Fuck, rainbow rendering is broken...
No no, I'm asking you. You were so curious, after all. Did you support the grassroots movement in Lybia and Syria?
You mentioned it first. Educate me, your USian highness.
Did you or did you not?
Ok, ok, fine, I did! But I was really hungry and it was so tempting. I bought another to replace the one I ate afterward.
You are a deeply unserious and cowardly person who believes in nothing, and anyone from Lybia or Syria would be fully justified in decking you in the face.
Thanks, love you too.
When you want to kill someone, you watch em in the eyes, coward yank.
Look at the upvotes and downvotes dawg. I support the grassroots desires of the people.
Eww, stop with le Redditor speak 🤢
And good call on the edit. Made you sound too much like an internet tough guy 🤣
Maybe if you use more emojis, they won't put it in the newspaper that you got mad
Oh hey by the way, how are Lybia and Syria doing?
You already saw the extent of my shamelessness when it comes to waddling in the mud. You can't me not use emojis 😏
I asked you, enlightened burgerian person to educate me, and I'm still waiting.
You are a shameless little mud pig to be certain.
Better a pig than a yank, oink 🐷 (<= me getting mad)
🤙
Take care 😉
Satre's anti-semite.

You misspelled “astroturf.”
You’re not listening to the people. You’re listening to comprador plants.
Interesting! But I genuinely make it a point to listen to people living inside the country. Iran in this case. And go out of my way to find texts that are seldom translated into any language I could read more easily. I appreciate how fortunate I am to have easily accessible translation tools; they help break that big educational barrier between my underclass ass and the world.
It's in my AntennaPod playlist.
I'd say this doesn't teach me anything I wasn't aware of, but it's a good nonetheless.
Sorry but no.
Damn, you really can't answer the question.
