It’s called critical support. I can support both Iran’s self-defense from genocidal maniacs while simultaneously criticizing them for their human rights abuses. It’s something that people with a functioning brain can do - hold two ideas in their head at once.
Besides, Israel has killed more gay people in the last year just through sheer numbers of the people they’ve exterminated than Iran has ever.
There’s a difference between carpet bombing an entire country (also not defensible) and deliberately removing gay people from your population using the legal system.
Yes, and carpet bombing is entirely more evil. Iran is the lesser of two evils here. Isn’t that what liberals said we should always strive for? The lesser of two evils?
Your last paragraph is really out there, making Israel worse because they may have accidentally killed more gays?
How about we don’t cheer on either? How about we don’t cheer at all? Innocent civilians are dying because a bunch of dictatorial egomaniacs want to feel powerful. I don’t care what their nationality is, people are dying, I’m not cheering anyone.
Fuck the Israeli genocidal government
Fuck the Iranian murderous hateful theocratic dictatorship
Fuck the murderers from Hamas.
Take all of those against a wall and you finally might have a chance at actual peace there.
How is it accidental? They are committing genocide. All of their murders are purposeful. Also, I never said anything about cheering, I said I critically support Iran’s defense against Israeli aggression.
Btw, I agree with you. The ruling class is responsible for all of this, and unless we remove them and make it impossible for a class system to exist, we will perpetually have war.
All I’m saying is that if someone attacks me, intent on my annihilation, you don’t get to say how I fight back.
Okay but this is the internet, and im going to do strong readings of everything and also youre supposed to have all the same mental illness and knowledge as me.
It’s not cognitive dissonance if you’re deliberately holding the two ideas. It’s only cognitive dissonance when you try to keep their black and white thinking and can’t find any reconciliation between the two.

Two ideas? In this economy?
Boooo to Connect… you’re funny and this really made me laugh on a bad day and I like your other comments too but I can’t follow you. Boooooo
