Qasim Rashid, Esq.

All yall defending the Iranian regime seem to forget that their nationalist police murder 2000 people a year, the regime kills 70,000 people a year by denying them the basic medicine they need to live, this year their supreme leader cut aid to hungry civilians and killed 600,000 innocent people, and since 2001 they’ve waged imperialist wars that have killed 4.6 Million people

How Do You Defend That?!?

Ahhh my bad. I just described the United States Govt and the number of people it’s killed.😐

important note:

you can oppose the govt of iran and the govt of the usa at the same time

despising the usa doesn't mean you have to support theofascist iran

and despising iran doesn't mean you have to support plutocrat bigotry usa

True but my point is that we must fix the reasons why he came to power instead of pretending we can (or should) just go back to the pre-Trump status quo.

@QasimRashid The real truth is both regimes are evil, murderous. The war isn’t about freeing Iranian people at all, though. Payback to Saudis/UAE/Qatar, or Israel? Distraction from Trump’s domestic woes, or Epstein? Certainly a cynical, illegal, immoral war.
Show threadBaron VonskinnbackMar 1
@RockerDoc @QasimRashid to be fair the interviews with members of the Iranian regime are constantly calling them the Epstein class and calling them out for raping & murdering children, so if he thought bombing Iran would get the Epstein papers out of everyone's mind I think Iran are going to do a very good job of keeping it part of the international conversation...

Damn right. The fact that the USA has become a failed democracy, without a safety net for the most vulnerable, with a raving lunatic at the helm, throwing its weight around and bullying every other country on this planet does NOT negate the fact that the Iranian regime is a vile abomination that oppresses its own population and that nobody should shed a tear if it were to be yeeted into space.

@edendestroyer @QasimRashid it's easy for you to say that as you were not directly involved and your family members were not killed on the street. War is cruel and Trump is the last reliable person for any humanitarian intervention but The Iranian regime is a lot more evil and has murdered so many more innocent lives in Iran, Syria, Iraq ,Yemen and even Lebanon and Palestine than Trump might do during this war. Therefore, that analogy was ridiculous.

Show threadTinaMar 3

@QasimRashid Meanwhile the Iranian regime with only a quarter the population of the USA kills well over 1000 people a year (so quite equal to USA actually), does not provide a lot of the necessary medication and did not donate food to save hungry people in the first place, and over the last few months they massacred an number estimated to be between 7000 and shy below 40000 of their own people.

Proportionally USA would need to murder ~5000 of their own people a year rather than 1000-1500, and would need to massacre ~30000-150000 of their people in a few months.

The USA is well on the way of getting there, but there is still a very wide gap between the USA and Iran, and such comparisons (USA is just as bad as Iran) are quite playing down how bad things are in Iran.
