First Hegseth and now the WSJ?
There’s just endless American prejudice against beardos smh.
How many generations of Palestinians have to fight for the occupation to be barbarians, too?
but defeat would be far less popular.
Bet. Americans will see their gas go down by 2 dollars a gallon and they’ll wear a ball and chain with the IRGC branding. Good luck with that argument, edit but then again, Americans
I’m not so sure. Americans want the war to be over, but actually meeting Iran’s demands (the only way to end the war) will have libs and chuds both frothing at the mouth and ready to take a bite out of whoever signs the deal.
Americans just want lower gas prices, see Dems winning a historical election. Your average person doesn’t give a fuck about Iran
I agree. The op-eds, liberal and conservative podcasts, and media talking heads will all be frothing at the mouth, but I think the average person won’t give a fuck.
a 250-year-young gang of genocidal bandits calling one of the oldest civilisations on earth “barbarians”
Jesus fucking Christ, what fucking Northrop-Grumman think-tank is this ghoul from?
Tim Sheehy is the junior senator from Montana
Jesus fucking Christ
Calling them barbarians like their arguments aren’t much more coherent and based on historical materialism. America can’t decide whether it wants active bloodshed or trying to starve people or trying to starve themselves.
Only one group of barbarians is threatening to use weapons of mass destruction on innocents currently.
Iranians are on Twitter too! If you want to call them barbarians at least @ them.
Wait Till You See Defeat
it’s already here assholes
You don’t understand, they weren’t really trying the first dozen times (which somehow doesn’t make it even more pathetic)
Just you wait till they activate Berserker Mode consequences will never be the same
Handshake meme between Iran *(hawk) conservatives and Ukraine libs
“We just gotta keep fighting bro, we just gotta hold on and eventually we’ll win any day now bro, you don’t get it it’s existential”
[misunderstood comment, see below]
except, for iran it is actually existential. the us and israel are the evil empire the nazis aspired to be. they bomb schools and hospitals, poison water supplies, and threaten genocide on all who resist them.
the current régime in ukraine, meanwhile, is conducting a deeply unpopular war on behalf of western capital, a war that could end tomorrow, and committing horrific abuses against its own population in the meantime.
so let’s not draw equivalence here.
No I mean these racist cretins trying to make it out like fighting Iran is existential for the United States
ah, that makes much more sense! i’m sorry for misunderstanding.
in your defense it is pretty confusingly phrased, the more usual term would be “conservative Iran hawks”
Oh yeah huh, my b typed while tired
Yeah “Iran conservatives”, just sounds like you are describing the conservatives in Iran’s parilment or something.
no it’s cool, afaict the only reason we understand “Ukraine libs” to be “American libs obsessed with Ukraine” is that Ukraine is chock full of nazis
This just incepted into me a modification of a Paul Robeson quote:
“Nothing can be built more on barbarism, than this society. I assure you!”
We need to tell everyone about Operation Ajax.
This was a gem in the responses.

When they’ve dropped the pretences, OG rapacity calls for OG insults as well, I suppose.
So now-by the gods of the Hellenes–come rescue the Ionians from slavery; they are of the same blood as you, after all. This will be easy for you to accomplish, since the barbarians are not valiant, while you have attained the highest degree of excellence in war. Since they fight with bows and short spears, wearing trousers and turbans on their heads, [4] they are easily subdued. Further, the inhabitants of that continent possess more good things than all the other peoples of the world put together. To begin with, they have gold as well as silver, bronze, colorful clothing, beasts of burden, and slaves, all of which could be yours if you really desired them.

And this ISN’T elitism?
But when you mock a white dude for being dumb enough to think it’s ok to murder people if you don’t like their skin color. Somehow that’s elitist.
The skin color is a bonus. It’s really about
itemIrán wanting their oil revenue to benefit their own people, rather than the Great and Lesser Satans.
