Toxic Mental posted:Also you know what's funny as gently caress, GOP freaks in America complain about Iran and poo poo, but that's their ideal country, a single theocratic autocracy with roving unmoderated religious cop gangs too me, they are more jealous then anything. Cocoa Ninja posted:Wikipedia says that Iran is a pretty youthful country, all things considered. A huge portion of the population is between 20 and 45, and looking at these protest videos I can’t help but wonder if the death of Khamenei, at 83, would be an apt metaphor for the passing of the generational torch. i think if the regime doesn't implode because of this, it will either have to reform heavly to save itself from these protests coming every year OR it will implode bad.

mobby_6kl posted:This doesn't make sense. The US doesn't hate Iran, it hates the government of Iran. You can tell this because before the 1979 revolution, the US loved Iran. this. america would loving LOVE if iran became a democratic non theocracy again because then we don't have to rely on loving KSA or Israel for oil or partnerships or etc. we friends with iran for better or worse until carter hosed up and didnt throw the shah to the revolution. i think the theocratic goverment is hosed in the long term, they will either have to reform hard or eventually get overthrown or worse the country fractures. with the US media thing. its probably more because the media doesn't want to look bad when/if the protests get crushed badly plus 20 other news things going on that they "care" more about.

looks like they havent managed to crush it yet. maybe because the dear leader is about to stroke out and they are in the middle of trying to pick a successor plus all the attempted separatist break away stuff.

Pajser posted:This feels like Syria ten years ago, only there the army was pulled in right at the start and started shooting protesters, after which many soldiers rebeled which kicked off the civil war. Possibly but isn’t Iran way more culturally homogeneous plus the protests are happening in most major cities? Like Syria is a different kettle of fish.

mobby_6kl posted:Sorry, the last one? I doesn't seem like you can actually see anything despite what it says. yeah it sounds like they the protesters were storming the bastille and poo poo caught on fire and the chuds inside went into purge mode in. hopefully some escaped. i think the regime is genuinly hosed. this isnt gonna just go away. mobby_6kl posted:Not seeing much today, maybe internet's limited as these tweets are suggesting probably overly enthusiastic but it wouldnt shock me if some of the refomers are making "we support a change so i can stay in power/not dragged to death" line.

mobby_6kl posted:At this point russia probably needs Iran more than vice versa yeah, i think they can't crush this. they are killing people in the streets and folks are still marching and fighting back. best case for the regime are either they pull a syria and kill so many no one can't stand against them but they end up in a much much much weaker place and then they end up setting up their fall in future. their other best chance is reforming hard but thats dead now. i think this ends bad for them now.

Samovar posted:I hope it ends bad for them - that it doesn't become another Syria. i dont think it does. way less ethnic/religious divrsity and a way way stronger national identity. but agreed. i also don't think the mullahs have the same staying power as assad.

kntfkr posted:What if we condemn it? That'll learn 'em! i think its more, "sure we both hate the goverment, but they dont trust us and doing covert/direct action may just cause a rallying around effect for the goverment" situation. like i am sure the west and other places are quietly doing stuff and its clear the regime can't crush this.

mobby_6kl posted:Things still look pretty serious, they might be able to pull it off the mullahs are loving stupid that they are creating this many martyrs when they know that their revolution succedded partly because iran venerates martyrs(cultural and shia stuff) and your just creating more and more.

mobby_6kl posted:Yeah you'd think they of all people would know that lol, but I guess they just can't stop murdering kids i mean they were murdering kids after the revolutions by spewing psychotic religious horse poo poo and turning them into loving 40k level suicide infantry irregulars in the iran iraq war. Nenonen posted:I wonder if there's any noteworthy motion inside the clergy for reformations to avoid a bloodbath? at this point no. too many dead and probably a ton of regime chuds hosed up or dead too. too much blood spilled for it to be reform now. either regime dies or they kill astronomical amounts of people to buy themselves a decade until their boomer base dies. Herstory Begins Now posted:https://twitter.com/criticalthreats/status/1593419616335937538 yeah, this is gonna get uglier. the regime has lost most of the youth now and probably alot more. the only reason the mullas arnt doing jig from a telephone poll is because they probably have a the military and the guard still. i suspect the military(or portions) may flip if poo poo really kicks off. i dont think the regime has the same streagth as assad though.

mobby_6kl posted:Not following it daily any more but it seems that things are still happening recently yeah again, i dont think this goes away, but its not gonna be some quick implosion, its gonna be some slow implosion as the regime creates more martyrs which will create more protests. stephenthinkpad posted:The clash kind of reminds me the violent protest in Myanmar, which had junta related violent clamp downs 3 times in the last 3 decades. At least in term of the length of the protest is pretty similar to Myanmar. Also how the authoritarian government has a strong hold on the army and part of the security force and some core profitable business but much less so to other part of the society. this too.
