Even if you want to tell yourself the regime has absolute control over information
Even if they did have complete control, I’m pretty sure Iranians want to spread anti Israel sentiment whenever possible, so this ban wouldn’t necessarily be controversial for the government. It would probably be all over the place to encourage more people to do the opposite of the athlete
Iran tackling the important issues
Europeans are so funny

The US is too scared to even recognize Taiwan as a real country and has to do backroom deals to sell weapons and conduct meetings, and somehow Taiwan sees the US as an ally lol. Countries like Cuba and North Korea have “allies” who are strategic with their support, but at least they’re not delusional and pretending that China and Russia will swoop in and save them if anything happens.
The entire economy and people’s savings are tied up between a handful of missile manufacturers and a brain genius’s car that no one buys because it’s too expensive
We will fight the Chinese to the last TSCM engineer
So in your hypothetical analog, a completely made up, random, nonexistent party that never had any relevancy during that time period takes over America, and somehow you know more than OP and that proves china bad
I wish passphrase generators included foreign words. I’d like to mix my password with polish, Spanish, vietnamese, and Latin
The implication is that both events were ineffective at achieving anything meaningful, other than tasing one’s balls to death and getting shot by an anti aircraft missile
North Koreans going to Ukraine was a psyop. They were actually hired by Prigozhin to go to Russia and resurrect him after tricking everyone he died
So you’re telling me the military that actually furthered climate change due to its wars aren’t the main cause of death and suffering after leading (and currently leading) the “war on terror” on a bunch of irrelevant countries and spreading terrorism and extremism?
I remember reading something about this in the final 9/11 investigative report.
Even Bush seems to think so. During a state dinner he “accidentally” said that Russia’s invasion in Iraq is unjust. Then he corrected himself, smiled, and everybody in the room laughed. It’s absurd that anyone, including Osama himself, can think that the US can be changed for the good without destroying all the institutions and rebuilding.
What do you mean? Israel is the 51st state, and Saudi Arabia was going to become the 52nd before they became tankies
Living in the US I’ve learned that it’s actually Russia that is evil and Russians can’t be trusted.
How does it feel to support a country that sees you as subhuman, vlad?
Why would I love my country? The only thing it has provided me is money and relative comfort at the expense of millions and millions of deaths and millions and millions of people who are likely permanently traumatized and homeless. And please don’t say “you have the freedom to talk shit.” In Russia you get black bagged to Siberia for protesting against war. In the US the government will make you think your little dance and song protests will usher in communism to make you feel powerful and think you’re changing the world, then nothing changes and you get bored. It’s jester’s privilege.
Just put your head down, make a bunch of money, waste food, consume product, support the next war, and don’t ask questions.
What? They dropped a bomb on 10 civilians getting water just a few years ago. This should translate to effective combat against a country with air superiority
Wow. Zelensky isn’t playing. He means business
