Iran is about as right wing as it gets, the only way you could associate abstaining from intervention in Iran as left wing is if your idea of left wing is an eastern dictatorship.

After the historical experience of Iraq, Syria, Libya, and Afghanistan, what a PROFOUNDLY STUPID thing to write. This kind of argument was made by Hitchens before the Iraq war and he was proven wrong by history itself. That someone in 2026 would repeat the same idiotic bullshit is frankly just beyond me.

Ideally, we should be promoting revolution in Iran for a strong democracy to form, free of influence of USA or China, but since none of the involved actors seem to like that idea, sucks to suck.

Again, the stupidity is just overwhelming. The regime was the most fragile right before the American and the Israeli maniacs started bombing. They had just had to put down a huge internal revolt with incredible violence and were facing complete lack of internal legitimacy. These excesses had focused the Iranian people on bread and butter issues and the regime was the shakiest it had ever been. And then… the Blitz rallied the people to the flag and effectively killed off the opposition. There is no way today to be against the regime inside Iran without immediately being stigmatized as a traitor. The American and Israeli maniacs gave the regime the biggest gift the IRGC could have possibly wished for.

The Left has been right about Western military adventurism every fucking step of the way for the last 20+ years. And yet these kind of brain dead takes still come up. WTF.
