    Ben, Krasnov, Xi, Vlad and the Ayatollah are peas in the same damn pod. Sick bastards, all of them!

      The ideal scenario, now that the greybeard kicked the bucket, is for Iran to fire a ballistic missile straight at Netanyahu’s arse, Krasnov suffering a heart attack, and Vlad just watching his entire country crumble to bits as his economy dies, and his military collapses from lack of manpower.

      Not sure about Xi. Maybe a fishing boat accident.

    The Ayatollah is the spiritual leader of the Islamic Republic of Iran

    Jeffery Epstein is the spiritual leader of the 2025 USA regime

    Not going to defend him, but a Pedophile led nation executing/kidnaping foreign heads of states and bombing schools is not a good thing.

      the way my Iranian friends have put it as they celebrate the death of the head of the regime and brace themselves for the impact of the new regime is that when you live under opression all your live, you learn to celebrate the small stuff, even as you know what’s coming will also be bad

          By this logic, then no one should celebrate the death of a serial murder if they are killed by a rapist.

          One bad person is dead. That’s good no matter how you cut it. Just cause the shit isnt over and there’s still bad people doesn’t mean we arnt happy things have improved.

          If you only ever settle for perfection then you might as well just let the pedos go uncontested. Cause you can’t stop all of them in one go.

            one bad person mostly westerners hate is dead, but now the biggest imperialist force is directly bombing, and want to regime change them. also reminding you their second target was schoolchildren.

            this is not like it’s kissinger dying of old age, or mussolini being lynched. this is fucking war.

          especially considering that over 100 schoolgirls were murdered in the process.

          if a bomb killed 150 children and also took out Trump, I wouldn’t celebrate it

                This world is full of evil, we have to be willing to take in what little good we can get for what it is until people start doing really better. If Operation Epstein kills 150 schoolgirls and Trump, I of course won’t be celebrating that 150 schoolgirls are dead, but also I’m not going to lie or omit that Trump dying is the only good thing coming out of that. What, you want me to lament that Trump is dead?

            The deaths of children will forever prevent america from being a hero here. So we’ve just created a new enemy, likely a more cunning one than the last.

              that’s the point. make sure there are always people who hate America with all their soul. so there’s always a justification for the US to be a military state.

                  when I say, cruelty is the point, this is why. that’s why they do family separation, what’s why ensure people suffer, both domestically and internationally. it’s an investment in future targets

          There’s already a war against them by their own government that’s killed over 30,000 Iranians since late December. Civilians are being slaughtered either way, but this way means that maybe the Ayatollahs won’t be in power at the end.

            why would anyone celebrate any of this at all though.

            their government went nowhere, and there is now a foreign superpower bombing them.

          i will not tell them how to think or feel. the old regime killed their families. the new regime will likely finish the job. iran, israel, the united states. none are working or fighting on behalf of the Iranian people. i will help them as they work to survive, but i will not moralize to them that they’re wrong to feel how they feel about things that impact them directly

        you’re making a lot of assumptions about me, I’ve been protesting almost every week for years, local antiwar org I work with has been organizing weekly protests since 2003.

        this bs aggression isn’t new, but I refuse to desensatise myself.

    Every so often I am reminded Reddit liberals (who just weren’t honest enough to stay there with their MAGA friends, who are closer to them than they are to anyone outside of the Western sphere) also came here. Oh well.

    This shit is no joke, man, the US backed a coup and when it wasn’t successful enough they murdered people, and this is not even the first time in the span of a year (in this country). And American imperialism is always, always, on the wrong side of history and ethics, because they’re amoral geopolitical moves made to enrich Western aristocrats, loss of life is not even part of the equation. Stop it already, you don’t have to be Greta but at least you can understand this is nothing but violence for the sake of control by the usual villains, and not make fun of it all.

        Your heart seems to be in the right place but you’re largely misinformed, or taking things in a vacuum. Regardless, is it America’s place to bomb yet another country, yet another group of people who haven’t attacked them first, for whatever reason you might think?
