No bitch. Thats a whole new sentence. Wtf are you talking about??? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] SolarMyth@aussie.zone 10 points 4 months ago (1 child) RickyRigatoni's reply was valid. The OP mentioned Iran killing 20k protestors as a MAGAt excuse for Trump's illegal and stupid war. You called this "whitewashing", which it isn't, because even though the killings did occur, they do not constitute a valid justification as the MAGAts claim.. This was RickyRigatoni's point. Nobody is defending or denying Iran's killing of protesters. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Godric@lemmy.world -2 points 4 months ago (1 child) In the thread people are literally are calling the humans with husbands, wives, sisters, brothers, and mothers murdered for protesting "Mossad plants". I won't defend Trumpian bloodthirsty colonialism. Just pointed out how people are downplaying and excusing an evil theocratic regime that terrorizes their own citizens. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Bluescluestoothpaste@sh.itjust.works 2 points 3 months ago "people" meaning one troll? Yeah so downvote report and move on. Now everyone else on the thread has to answer for one troll shithead comment?? permalink fedilink source parent [–] RickyRigatoni@piefed.zip 2 points 4 months ago (1 child) Then explain why you downvoted my other comment. Because that's what it looks like to me. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Godric@lemmy.world -2 points 4 months ago Oh gods, did I downvote a comment that was mocking the thousands shot in the face for protesting agaisnt a theocratic regime? Oh, gee, thank you for cyberstalking my downvotes to correct me, it makes us all feel safer in the 'verse! permalink fedilink source parent [–] gizmonicus@sh.itjust.works 6 points 4 months ago (1 child) What comment are you referring to, specifically? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Godric@lemmy.world -1 points 4 months ago (1 child) permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Godric@lemmy.world -1 points 4 months ago (2 children) This one in particular. Every time we see a protest in an authoritarian regime, it is excused as a CIA plot, the actual people are never acknowledged as humans fucking pissed at having a boot to their neck. IRL, I've been accused as being a paid shill because I protest. Authoritarian shitheads literally cannot imagine people have different opinions from them, nor that they would take any action over it. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] gizmonicus@sh.itjust.works 3 points 4 months ago I'm glad I asked. I agree, that comment is bullshit. The way you responded, it wasn't clear what you meant, to be honest. It reads a bit like you're defending the MAGA justification for going to war. "They killed 20k protestors" is ambiguous in its meaning. Are they saying that's a lie, and MAGA is stupid for not seeing that it's a psyop? Or are they saying MAGA is stupid for thinking that's really why we're going to Iran, to rescue the civilians, and save them from this evil regime? You seem to have taken the first interpretation. I think a lot of other people here assumed the second. Also, I don't even see that comment, so it's even more confusing what you meant. permalink fedilink source parent [–] deathmetaldawgy@lemmy.ml 2 points 4 months ago* There’s no proof they were mass killing anyone it’s been used as a “justification” to invade Iran for American imperial interests. I’ve seen no proof that protesters were mass killed and I’ve in fact seen more Iranians claim the internet blackout and mass killings were bullshit. I’m tired of seeing that this is Iran’s or Trumps fault or that it’s to “distract from the Epstein files” which is the dumbest bullshit you could think of… cmon yall the “progressive” governor of my state literally said they would preemptively strike Iran in a debate before Trump was even president again. permalink fedilink source parent
