Ew

Yeah, I was answering to the person who answered you, who apparently thinks having more than one belief as a time is doublethinking because double=2

A few isolated events of drone purchases aren’t enough to make such a claim IMO. E.g.:

https://www.investigate-europe.eu/posts/eu-states-exported-weapons-to-russia

This data from all EU-27 official arms exports registers shows that between 2015 and 2020, at least 10 EU member states have exported a total of €346 million worth of arms to Russia.s. France, Germany, Italy, Austria, Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Croatia, Finland, Slovakia and Spain – to different extents – have sold “military equipment” to Russia

So apparently Spain, France or Germany, full members of NATO, aren’t Pro-NATO because they did arms deals with Russia at some point in the past 15 years. Not good analysis in my opinion.

Critical support doesn’t equate cheering out of spite.

And yes, I’m addressing you, who finds it inconceivable the fact that someone will support, critically or otherwise, the “scary brown people country” that the US designated a terrorist state.

You’re posting anti-iran content on politicalmemes

People are cheering on Iran out of pure spite, not out of genuine support for Iran

Speak for yourself. Iran has consistently been politically, diplomatically, economically and morally opposed to the Zionist entity since before I was born. I wish westerners had a shred of the empathy towards Palestinians that they pretend to have for gays in scary brown people countries when said countries oppose US interests. If you care so much about LGBT rights, go and fucking join an org in your home country, I’m sure you have plenty of far-right people committing hate crime against LGBT in your country, if not outright legalising it in the government.

OK, let’s go one step further: why did Iran get bombed by Israel? Huh, what do you mean Iran consistently opposed the stance, policy and even the existence of the genocidal Zionist entity? Nah, history begins on June 13th, much like it used to begin on Oct. 7th

The US and UK literally created the conditions for contemporary Iran. They toppled Mossadegh and sowed the seeds of religious extremism. You’re blaming the victims of the western empire for the consequences they’re suffering, you uneducated chauvinist.

Cope harder, scratched liberal. The collective west is the greatest source of human death and suffering in human history by a long shot. Fuck, Israel is its spawn and Iran is its victim.

The west: destroys Iran’s possibility of choosing is own future last century when its people democratically elected Mosaddegh, who was enacting progressive and secular policy, and wanted the profits of Iranian oil to stay in Iran instead of being sucked by Britain through British Petroleum. Economically and militarily blockades the country to prevent oil exports, bribes religious authorities to radicalise the masses against progressives, and pays for mafias and actors to both destroy private property and alienate people and to head western-funded anti-Mossadegh protests that culminated in the toppling of Iran’s greatest chance at progressivism, democracy and industrialisation

Scratched liberals like you: “these radical religious Asians are so violent”

In the past two months of your post history, there’s not one post condemning Israel for its genocide, can you link to any post of yours targeting Israel?

Iran isn’t perpetrating a genocide, what the hell are you talking about?

Do you wish the same for western countries, most of which support the genocide in Palestine through the economic, diplomatic and military ties with Israel?

Maybe you should reconsider your prejudice, then. Why are you so spiteful towards the country geopolitically opposed to the genocidal entity and doing something about it? Do you treat western countries (all of them maintaining economic, diplomatic and military ties with Israel) with the same contempt?

You can hold multiple beliefs at once without them contradicting, having more than one belief isn’t automatically doublethink

If you’re a westerner, your country is actively supporting only one of those sides, so your political aim according to your opinion should be ending all support to that side. Why focus on the other?

The Russian Empire didn’t genocide the entirety of the continent in pursuit of a white ethnostate, unlike the US. Surely it did harrowing stuff because, I mean, medieval regimes, but as of today, Russia is vastly more diverse than the US, and it has many regions with non-slavic ethnicities constituting a majority: think Yakut, Tatars, Mari, Chechen…

'Cause of religion. Don’t leave that part out

Very much not because of religion, and I say this as a staunch atheist. Iran was well on its way to progressive and secular reform, separation of state and church, and leftism, during the government coalition that put Mosaddegh in the government somewhat above half a century ago. It was the US + UK who militarily embargoed the country and bribed authorities, mafias and religious leaders, as well as paid actors to destroy private property and pretend to be progovernment, in order to (sadly successfully)'coup the president because British Petroleum wanted absolute control of Iranian oil.

The west destroyed Iran, it’s not religion that did. We literally supported the Shah at the time.

Don’t forget the British involvement, it was British Petroleum that was the most threatened, and the British army militarily blockading Iranian oil from being exported.

have no dog in this fight. I just don’t want to get drawn into it.

Then you surely are protesting against the US very much being drawn into it by funding and arming the genocidal Zionist entity?

The US/EU can then burn for killing civilians in Palestine?
