    I don’t like Trump or the war either but this is literally just propaganda. I trust Iran as much as I trust Trump. Not at all. Foreign authoritarians are not somehow more trustworthy than domestic ones. The phrase “the Epstein Network” is just an attempt to anchor this into domestic political controversies.

    Bluntly Trump doesn’t care about public opinion about this war enough to do this or the lead in to this war would have looked much more like Iraq

    not saying i agree with Iran/America, but any one else notices that Iran and lemmy/reddit users have a lot of common talking points and interests?

          Hi, have you seen our establishment recently?

          Making an arbitrary and artificial connection with another country is more of an insight into you then it is a useful observation.

          It’s like saying coal miners from West Virginia sound weirdly like coal miners from Turkmenistan - they both have black lung so it would be weird if they didn’t.
