    I wonder why Iran might have a favourable relationship with Russia over the client states of the power that has spent decades trying to destabilise and pillage them. I guess we’ll never know.

      Because they’re both authoritarian shitholes and sanctioned by most of the world?

        My guy, what you myopically see as “most of the world”—Europe, the Five Eyes states, and a few US vassals in Asia—are in the minority. They’re in the minority in terms of population, landmass, and natural resources.

        Most of the world (read The White supremacist western empire)

        The shah that they all supported was soooo much less authoritarian. Please grow up.

        “They’re the Bad Guy places and the Whole World™ (the white countries) hate them, which is how you know they’re Bad. It said so on the news.”

        You sound 9 years old dude. It’s so undignified to watch a person just bow down and hand corpo epstein media the studded leash to their entire brain. It’s uncomfortable in the same way as seeing someone lazily piss themselves in public: you’re supposed to be more capable than this. This comic book worldview we’re fed in the west really stunts people’s ability to reason.

          It’s okay, we feel the same way about you. Go back to huffing RT and other state-run propaganda networks.

            “This is what communists think, and I know it because the billionaire pedophile media that loves genocide told me so”

            My little baby boy, you don’t even know what propaganda is
