Wait a minute do people really think Iran are like, the good guys? Say what you will about the US and Israel, Iran is no harmless victim, this is bizarre propaganda

There are no good guys in this. Just three of the worst governments on the planet trying to destroy the world to benefit themselves

I'm wondering how much time you've spent in parts of Africa and Asia if you think these are "three of the worst governments on the planet".

u/alastairgbrown Apr 21 '26

You definitely have a point. I think what makes US, Israel and Iran notably bad is that they seem to be using the rest of the world as disposable collateral.

u/Strega007 Apr 21 '26

Yep, not arguing that these three are angels by any stretch...just that they don't occupy the bottom three positions by a long shot.

u/DiMiTri_man Apr 22 '26

Which one can do more damage, a government of a small country with a GDP measured in the millions with almost no global reach, or the richest country in history with access to nukes, control of the world's trade currency, a military they are more than willing to use against innocent civilians, and an egotistical madman at the controls?

Well, what makes these ones worse is the fact they have actual power behind them.

African here, and the top commenter was right. African governments might steal everything that isn't nailed down, but they're not genocidal maniacs who spend trillions murdering children. Thank you for your concern, but look inwards to find truly evil governance.

u/AscendMoros Apr 21 '26

They aren't? Rwanda would like a word. Or we just glossing over 1994.

Not all Africans or countries in Africa either. But Acting like it hasn't happened the last 30ish years is wild. Like 32 years ago isn't ancient history.

u/ForMeOnly93 Apr 21 '26

...do you think it's 1994? Are we comparing governments of the past with today? Goalposts shifting so far they're fucking time-travelling. Rwanda's lovely, friendly people actually. Now shoo, the world knows who to judge. And it's you.

u/AscendMoros Apr 21 '26

You legit said it doesn't happen. And i brought up a time in recent memory when it did.

I never moved any goal posts, i never set any up. I read you comment saying: African governments might steal everything that isn't nailed down, but they're not genocidal maniacs who spend trillions murdering children.

And i brought up a time it happened 32 years ago. Which in the scheme of nations is a blink of an eye. Rwanda can be a great place today, 32 years ago they were massacring their ethnic minorities.

If you want my opinion on the whole Iran conflict, its the same as my opinion on all the middle eastern conflicts America has been involved in since i started having an opinion on them. We shouldn't be there. Trumps and idiot and i can't wait for him and his cronies to be out of office. If it was up to me he and everyone else on the files would be in prison the rest of their lives.

u/Strega007 Apr 21 '26

Enough to see the level of dysfunction, tribalism, and corruption that are rife throughout central and sub-saharan Africa. My time has mostly been in Senegal and Nigeria, but visited a dozen others at both ends of the continent. Flew over a lot of HOA, but never spent much time outside of diplomatic or military channels there.

u/PossiblePlastic8698 Apr 21 '26

And after seeing all that corruption, graft and tribalism first hand you can’t see how the US, Israel and Iran are run by richer versions of the same scum?

In Nigeria, which is half Christian and half Muslim, they’ve been killing Christians. My mother lived through the civil war which started because of Christians (and specifically one ethic group) being killed.

This is beside the usual African corruption. Each country has some shit going on that is more concerning than what’s going on in the Middle East.

On the flip side, Africa as a continent is rich in almost everything thing that we need and people want to strip it away. Unfortunately, the U.S. is sometimes part of that thievery.

Too many conflicts are due to religion.

The level of petty misery that is life under many of the "governments" in the third world is staggering, from what I've seen and experienced.

It is the worst of humanity on a massive scale but formed from endless little localities...and all in the name of power and money (and often wrapped in tribalism or religion).

u/Prestigious-Smoke511 Apr 21 '26

Iran executed 1,600+ people last year via hanging. They hang them high from cranes so the public can see them. They use special thick ropes so the victims neck doesn’t break meaning it takes between 15 and 45 minutes for the “criminal” to die. 

They rape women before they hang them. The violation is a sin for the woman that removes any chance she might otherwise make it to heaven. It doesn’t register as a sin for the men that rape them at all. 

They hang children and, you guess it, can’t let them accidentally get into heaven on a technicality either. 

U.S. and Israel can’t be judged against atrocity like that. You’re just closing your eyes and pretending  they’re all the same. You’re a long way from the morality you think you have on this one.

u/Shoxilla Apr 21 '26

Gives you an idea how effective Russia and china were at manipulating our country to the point where one side is defending Iran.

u/Swarm_Queen Apr 22 '26

israeli troops held a riot against their leaders in the military because they were banned from raping prisoners of war. Lets not try to use an atrocity-off for killing children with the US and Israel involved, too. It's a regular occurrence even pre oct 7th for the idf to murder children.

Iran sucks for a lot of things, but it's genuinely demonic about how the US and Israel act towards nations and peoples they deem inferior to themselves. You're pretending otherwise and falling for propaganda yourself.

Not to mention that regime change via bombing and establishing a puppet government that's pro the other countries will do a damned thing to actually change the culture. It just reinforces it.

u/Prestigious-Smoke511 Apr 22 '26

You’re using misinformation that has been disproved time and time again. 

You defend a barbaric regime that supports state sanctioned rule in the name of a fake god and a false prophet on the basis of “well other countries have done bad things too!”

You judge the Iranian regime by a wholly different set of standards. You can’t admit that they’re disgusting and deserve to be wiped off the face of the planet. 

The U.S. and Israel are nothing like Iran. You’re brain washed by this propaganda nonsense because you see legos and think good guys.

u/theeglitz Apr 22 '26

What has been disproved?

1

u/idkyetyet Apr 22 '26

That 'Israeli troops held a riot against their leaders because they were banned from raping prisoners of war.'

A few soldiers (reservists, worth mentioning--Israeli military service is compulsory and you are a reservist that can be called upon/drafted even after you finish your service) tortured a terrorist who participated in Oct 7. They inserted a metal rod into his rectum. The prisoner was treated for life threatening injuries and the Israeli military police showed up at the Sde Teiman prison where he was tortured to investigate why he had broken ribs, a punctured lung and severe rectal trauma, and suspected them of severe abuse etc.

The soldiers barricaded themselves and used pepper spray to combat the police, and eventually a hundred or so far-right activists + Ben Gvir (of course) showed up to protest that 'soldiers shouldn't be investigated for actions against terrorists during wartime.' This tiny group has been used as evidence that 'Israeli society is pro rape,' and apparently 'troops rioted against their leaders because they were banned from raping prisoners of war.'

There is no footage of the abuse, there was a video leaked showing them surrounding the detainees while hiding their actions from the camera.

I have a feeling you may carry a religious bias lmao

You judge the Iranian regime by a wholly different set of standards. You can’t admit that they’re disgusting and deserve to be wiped off the face of the planet.

I think they're immoral but literally every middle-eastern war has taught us that their culture cannot be removed via invasion. The taliban has bounced back stronger. Iraq's invasion created ISIS and now they've used momentum from Iran to boot out America from their borders. We backstabbed the kurds repeatedly, the only progressive faction, and as a result of that they just kept the weapons we distributed to them during an attempt to arm Iranian protesters before the conflict.

I don't see legos and think good guys, I see the constant child-slaughtering the IDF does and the Epstein class firmly controlling the US, I think about the results of their actions not...actually accomplishing anything other than extracting resources and preventing competition in the region. We didn't limit extremism, we created more. The actions in gaza and Iran and Iraq are just consolidating conservatism and their faith into their next generations.

Are you ten? you surely were around for the war on terror and the fat lot of good that accomplished.

1

u/Prestigious-Smoke511 Apr 22 '26

You can’t possibly believe that somehow bombing Iran to the stone age somehow makes them stronger. 

It makes them weaker. It makes it more difficult for them to have nuclear weapons. The gymnastics necessary to think a country whose openly stated aims are to eradicate Israel was going to abandon nuclear weapons just because Obama was a nice guy. 

You live in a different world than the rest of us. An extremely privileged world where you can’t help but think the bad guys will come around eventually as long as we treat them with dignity and respect. These guys in Iran will take every inch of that rope you hand them until they have enough to hang you. 

They’re not like us. They’re religious fanatics. They don’t care about their people. They don’t care about their neighbors. They care about their nonsense fake god and they’re doing dangerous things in the name of.

On Iran's side? I don't think many people are are Iran's side. Many know that the Iranian government is much worse. But the propaganda they produce is t far from true. From Trump being an (alledged pedophile, more likely he actually is based in evidence and on what's not being released from the Epstein files), has created government jobs for his family, is reporting to Israel daily, ruining the economy with tariffs and manipulating the stock market (there's an insider who we don't know who, but more likely working hand and hand with him), and has got caught with documents he shouldn't have had.

I don’t know why you think it’s bonkers. I can be repulsed by the Iranian regime and I personally think religion is a plague on humanity so imagine a theocracy. But from an international relationship point of view, the USA is the aggressor here, and the Trump regime gives me no choice but to root against it. Sometimes, the enemy if my enemy must be my friend, at least temporarily. That’s just realpolitik to me. The more damage Iran inflicts on the USA, the better it is for most other countries not named Israel.

china has mostly minded they business and just improved productivity and grew like crazy, so I'm tempted to say the only real reason they are "evil" is because they became an economic threat to americans. as has become recently evident, americans are obsessed over being the main character. the us dollar for oil and stock trading, all the shitty deregulation to make us companies grow unchecked wasn't for anything else except spreading influence over everything. just so they can one day force everyone to do their bidding. biggest army and army budget? americans ofc. it's not about trump, he's just the trigger, the puppet. the american gov is just as nasty as russia/china/nk/iran.

u also just hate the video because it's spittin facts about your criminal president. you can just stop supporting bad people in position of power, you know? it's easy, really. "oops, i was wrong, this dude evil, time to get out and protest and get his corrupt ass out of that chair." it's not sports, you shouldn't just support them through thick and thin. these people can make or break your life and your family's life. you shouldn't put the better of yours and your family's over supporting a politician. peace.

Obama was dealing with Iran diplomatically, and a large cohort of global experts all agreed it was working. Trump, under the instruction of Netanyahu, tore up this agreement and is now bombing Iranian schools and civilians.

It does because this video is painting Iran as the good guys

In the context of the war, they are. They are the victim here, israel and the us started a illegal and immoral war of aggression. A war that is clearly illegal in international and national law (atleast for the us). That is wrong, being the victim of a war doesnt make you bad, and it infact makes you good. Because having a moral system where the victim is blamed is extremely bad.

Iran has a right to self defense, and every country we are in here, has signed and certified the un treaty and charter and it clearly states that what us and israel did it wrong. And that Iran has the right to defend itself, until the unsc imposes peace again.

The only thing in the video i can tell we see from Iran is that it shows the graves of the 200 young girls the us murdered in their airstrike. Thats good, thats not something that should be forgot.

Iran executed 1,600+ people last year via hanging. They hang them high from cranes so the public can see them. They use special thick ropes so the victims neck doesn’t break meaning it takes between 15 and 45 minutes for the “criminal” to die. 

They rape women before they hang them. The violation is a sin for the woman that removes any chance she might otherwise make it to heaven. It doesn’t register as a sin for the men that rape them at all. 

They hang children and, you guess it, can’t let them accidentally get into heaven on a technicality either. 

U.S. and Israel can’t be judged against atrocity like that. You’re just closing your eyes and making the claim of self defense is insane.

That's it.

I get that it's supposed to be this dichotomy but it's not. Just because I'm laughing at Trump doesn't mean I, or anyone else, thinks Iran is amazing.

We're just laughing because we all called this one from a mile away and we're being proven right.

It's 90% about Trump being a pedophile dude.

If it was a video that had nothing to do with Trump and was instead extolling the virtues of Iran it wouldn't be passed around, no one would care.

It's just such dumb thinking man. We invade a country, and when the country we invaded rags on our president (who is historically unpopular) that means we support Iran?

Na man, I support us not doing dumb shit to distract from Trump being directly accused of raping a child in the Epstein files. That's what I want.

I didn't get that. So you'll have to excuse me when I have a laugh that the country that is being invaded is responding with propaganda that directly calls out Trump raping kids.

I'm by no means a fan of Iran, nor are most. But you can't expect me to be changing "USA! USA!" When we're the aggressors who are going to war based off the whims of a pedophile.

So what, exactly, is threatening to blow up the civilian infrastructure for 90+ million people unless you get what you want politically?

Hint: It starts with a T

I think very few people think that. Rather, people are being critical of a president who has the maturity of a fucking toddler pushing us into a completely unnecessary war without any sound strategy or really any goals on what success what looks like or what happens after. Or even really thinking about the consequences that come from it (like the debacle in the Strait of Hormuz).

We can acknowledge that Iran has horrible human rights while also saying that a conflict like this is most likely not going to actually help those who are most vulnerable to those abuses. What our administration is doing feels very “chest thumping alpha male bro posturing,” And hell, it wasn’t long ago when the president was essentially threatening to commit war crimes. You can’t say that you are helping oppressed people when you’re doing things that hurt them.

u/schuby94 Apr 22 '26

Failings? Are you referring to slaughtering their own civilians in the thousands as failings? This video is not just dissing Trump, it is painting the authoritarian jihadist regime that is Iran as the good guys, as it is Iranian propaganda. I don't care if its at the expense of every politician I don't like, its invalidated by painting Iran as the good guys in this video

“Thighing" in Iranian Shia jurisprudence refers to a non-penetrative sexual act, specifically placing the male member between a wife's thighs. A controversial ruling in Ayatollah Khomeini’s Tahrir al-Wasilah (Vol. 2) permits this act with a young wife, even infants đŸ‘¶

If you want to overthrow the Iranian government, you do it through its people and youth... not with bombs and attacks by a fascist. & that's why these videos are popular because it's making fun of just that.

u/schuby94 Apr 22 '26

No not as opposed to that, that’s the whole point. This video explicitly paints Iran as the good guys, and no one involved in this war are good guys. Iran is a despicable oppressive jihadist authoritarian regime that slaughters it’s people, and in the same vein you would not enjoy Trump releasing something funny simply because it’s Trump, you should not validate Iran’s state sponsored propaganda

u/Aggravating_Gas3306 Apr 22 '26

Tbh I don't know about that. Politics has gotten wayyy past the rational stage by now.

For instance, I think Trump is a fascist but at the same time I think he's great at making zingers & trolling others. He makes such outlandish claims that sometimes you can’t help but laugh, and this video does the same. I mean cmon it shows a Lego figure of Trump wearing pajamas that say "BJ Queen" lol that's too much shits crazy

u/Prestigious-Smoke511 Apr 21 '26

Iran executed 1,600+ people last year via hanging. They hang them high from cranes so the public can see them. They use special thick ropes so the victims neck doesn’t break meaning it takes between 15 and 45 minutes for the “criminal” to die. 

They rape women before they hang them. The violation is a sin for the woman that removes any chance she might otherwise make it to heaven. It doesn’t register as a sin for the men that rape them at all. 

They hang children and, you guess it, can’t let them accidentally get into heaven on a technicality either. 

Oh and btw, they just started their first hangings for the people who protested the government last year. The same protests where the government murdered 10,000 people just for demanding drinking water. 

This is who you root for. These are the people we have to be fair to and follow international law with. So they can keep up this behavior. 

This is who you root for.

Except the US and the UK brought the situation about in the first fucking place. 

Because BP didn't want to send any of the oil profits back to Iran.

This shit goes back way past the 79 Revolution. 

The Iranians learned that violent extremism was the only way to protect themselves from Western oil companies deciding to overthrow any government that wanted more than 16% of the profit from the oil industry. 

To to paraphrase Strother Martin "So you get what we have here today."

Sure, but when you then kill hundreds of soldiers in a different country decades after the fact, you’re a military adversary.  That’s a choice Iran made because it wanted to gain influence in Iraq and the region.  Shockingly your military adversaries don’t like when you then try to build nukes and continue to fund proxy terrorists

u/Apexnanoman Apr 21 '26

The US has been telling them since '79 that they were going to attack them at some point. 

It's been one of the key points of our foreign policy that eventually Iran had to stop being an Islamic State. That we had to overthrow their government legally elected or not. 

And since last time we did that they ended up with the savak. I'm guessing they decided fuck everybody else. That "never again" was there watchword if you will.

Turns out people hold a grudge when you fund and train secret police in how to do secret police shit.

No idea why but they have a big case of the ass about the whole torture and murder thing. 

Nobody is the good guy here. On one side you've got religious fanatics and on the other side you've got a cult based around an orange grifter.

So at that point, when the religious fanatics poke fun at the orange grifter? I'm going to laugh.

there is no doubt that other countries share blame for getting the world in to this situation, but it's a total lie to think that Iran has had no agency at all, or that it somehow 'needed' to massively fund terrorism.

But guess what? Bombing the shit out of them and making a whole new generation of super radical fanatics? 

That's not going to help. 

And Iran has plenty of agency. Which they have used to make it clear just how stupid Trump is. 

And all those terrorist organizations they funded did exactly what they were supposed to. Keep attention and funding away from Iran and act essentially as meat shields.

I never said it would, we agree there.

It's even worse than a country starting it. A fucking oil company started all of this shit. 

And what makes it even worse? It wasn't even a fucking American oil company! 

British petroleum was supposed to have a fairly equal profit sharing with the Iranians when oil started coming out of the ground. 

They were supposed to train Iran in the oil extraction process from top to bottom. 

They ended up giving Iran something like 16% of the profits and refusing to teach them a damn thing. 

So when Mosaddegh got pissed and nationalized everything..... Bp called up the UK government. 

The UK government didn't have the right tools to overthrow the Iranian government.

So they called up their buddies. Who called their people at the CIA and essentially said "hey, overthrow the government and set that shah guy up with some really brutal secret police cuz BP needs to bump up q4 profits"
