Didn't they also attack Amazon warehouses? Going after Ellison and Bezos, Trumps real allies.

You know it's bad when the last message is essentially "we are just going to stop talking publicly about it"

[–] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 4 points 3 months ago

Their companies also did layoffs recently, fyi.

I hate it when bad actors suddenly start doing very good things.

[–] BoJackHorseman@lemmy.today 28 points 3 months ago (3 children)

America has always been the bad actor

Yes but the enemy of my enemy isn't automatically a super chill dude or anything

Iran democratically elected a socialist leader, Mohammad Mosaddegh, in 1952. The US (and UK) didn't like that, so they ushered a coup and installed the Shah, a brutal dictator, in 1953. Then in 1979, Iranians had enough of his bullshit and overthrew the government with the Islamic Revolution, voting in Ruhollah Khomeini as the new Ayatollah of the Islamic Republic of Iran.

Have we ever once considered that the reason why certain sovereign nations in the world behave the way they do was because sometime in the 20th century, the US interrupted their progress towards socialism. See also Latin and South America.

Maybe the US should just stop interfering with other countries and let the people decide what's best.

The reason Iran has a dictatorship is because America overthrew a democratically elected leader in Iran and installed and a brutal dictator Shah in his place.

Still Iran has never initiated a war.

Not really. USA actually had a pretty good reputation after WW2 and before wars in ME. For quite some time, US actually looked like a good country.

[–] BoJackHorseman@lemmy.today 21 points 3 months ago (1 children)

It looked like a good country but has been doing the same thing. CIA propaganda isn't working anymore like it used to.

USA has been at war 240 out of 250 years of its existence.

Such good guys they are

[–] REDACTED@infosec.pub 5 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I'm seeing a pattern in that list

They had a pretty good reputation up until 1953 when they started meddling with Korea. ever since they have stuck their nose in other peoples business. say Vietnam, Chile, Colombia, Venezuela, Iraq, Iran, Afghanistan, Syria, Libya etc. And if you think well those were all countries that were failing so America tried to help them but they wouldn't accept the help or something to that extent - congratulations, you are a sucker for decades long American propaganda.

[–] GreenKnight23@lemmy.world 9 points 3 months ago (1 children)

it's almost like taking in all those Nazi's after WW2 was a bad idea...

[–] musubibreakfast@lemmy.world 13 points 3 months ago

Bruh, America was fucked from the start. Let's not forget what they did to Native Americans. The Nazi's weren't being taken in, they were coming home.

[–] reksas@sopuli.xyz 12 points 3 months ago

but is that reputation based on geniunely good things, or spin and propaganda?

Hell Yeah! Who would have thought that Iran is the one who is doing gay space communism.

[–] gurty@lemmy.world 29 points 3 months ago (2 children)

Lmao, gay and Iran in the same sentence.

[–] Dadifer@lemmy.world 18 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I heard that they do tons of trans surgery there since it's forbidden to be gay

[–] chellomere@lemmy.world 21 points 3 months ago

I mean, that is the only way to be legally gay there - change your gender so that whatever you're attracted to now is the opposite gender. No way this increases the number of gender surgeries to be more than it should be, absolutely not!

[–] BoJackHorseman@lemmy.today 6 points 3 months ago (4 children)

It's also forbidden to be gay in Saudi Arabia. So why aren't we bombing Saudi Arabia?

[–] gurty@lemmy.world 7 points 3 months ago

I dunno, why you asking me?

Stay on the edge of your seat, this season of The Human Show could go anywhere.

[–] jaybone@lemmy.zip 6 points 3 months ago (2 children)

It might be the last season.

[–] MrVilliam@sh.itjust.works 6 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

I miss planned shows with a satisfying ending in mind from the start. Too many shows overstay their welcome just because it keeps making a little money. Go out strong. Now I'm not saying that it would've been perfect, but what would've been wrong with making that cold war, imminent threat of nuclear annihilation plotline lead up to the series finale like 50 years ago? The current plotline is really just a Reagan plotline reboot with some tweaks, and it was already boring and stupid the first time. What's that, trump is firing people again? The "you're fired" guy is firing people again. Fucking snore.

[–] deus@lemmy.world 4 points 3 months ago

For many of the actors, probably. But it's a very large cast so I doubt it's gonna end anytime soon.

Thanks, Iran. Oracle is as treasonous as Tesla. Their destruction is to be celebrated. Hit'em again!

[–] MrKoyun@lemmy.world 21 points 3 months ago

Good. Keep em coming. Burn it all down.

[–] Simulation6@sopuli.xyz 20 points 3 months ago (16 children)

Iran just hired a better PR firm then the US, they are as bad as they come.

[–] queermunist@lemmy.ml 6 points 2 months ago

Yeah dude, the country brutalized by economic sanctions with its currency in free-fall can afford better PR than the richest country on Earth. 🤡

more likely to hurt western oligarchs pocket books. Iran might be thinking about destabilizing the market bubble with force
