If 10 year old you was born in Shahist Iran, then you, your parents, your grandparents, your friends and your political leadership might be tortured or executed by the American regime for exercising free speech or opposing domestic policy.
You are indeed luckier than those 10 year olds, for enduring death threats and not summary executions. Your fears are the ones lucky enough to be considered silly, theirs are mortal panic.

- _DeadFred_ 6mo agoWild take but I condemn both. My nation removed Nixon in disgrace and we despise him almost universally. I condemn him and I condemn the horrible acts done by the United States. Do you not agree that supreme religious leaders shouldn't call for the death and destruction of entire societies ever? You can be against both.
- za3faran 6mo agoNo one called for the destruction of the american society as a whole, but trump did call for the erasion of their civilization. You're worried about words that are misinterpreted, while leaving the actual terrorism and death conducted by the US and israel and their supporters over the past decades. Remind me again, how much blood of millions do they literally have on their hands?
- _DeadFred_ 6mo ago"death to America". Crazy the gaslighting here. Iran has been loud and clear what they want, for 40 years. Also crazy that no one is willing to say "Supreme religious leaders should not call for the destruction of a society it is wrong they have done that for 40 years"
- _DeadFred_ 6mo agoReminder 'death to America' is followed with 'death to Israel'. You can't gaslight that one away as 'Iran doesn't really want to destroy Israel'. And Iran considers Israel the small satan compared to the USA. So it is beyond ridiculous to claim the 'death to America' in 'death to America, death to Isreal' has a different meaning to Iranians from 'death to Israel'.
- za3faran 6mo agoReminder: blood of millions on the hands of the US and israel. They're justified to react, just as how the people of many parts of West Asia and Africa reacted to their european colonizers.
- _DeadFred_ 6mo agoWow, suddenly a dramatic shift from "Chants against the government, as they themselves have made clear, not against the individuals. " and "No one called for the destruction of the american society as a whole" when I point out they also call for death, (and very much mean death of a society) for Israel immediately after they call for death to America. Chants that the Islamic Republic of Iran and it's supreme religious leaders very much mean as the destruction of Israeli society as a whole. They are calling for death to Israel, and by extension that means they also literally mean death to the USA, and it is justified in your eyes. Religious leaders are justified to call for death in your eyes.
