Its a really confusing world we're living in.

I don't super US/Israel so I am happy Iran with Russia's help is able to inflict pain on them. Happy to see US getting weaker.

But I also don't support Russia/Iran both have horrible regime so I don't want to see them victorious.

I supported Ukraine initially because Russia is a bully but Ukraine supports Israel which is a worse bully.

I don't know who to support and who to be against any more

The fact that you have worse words for Iran while Israel is committing a full scale genocide is pretty telling.

Russia also committed war crimes. both Natanyahu and Valadmir are officially war criminals so what's your point?

Israel is committing Genocide yes. Iran killed thousands of Syrians opposing Asad regime and even killed thousands of Iranians opposing khumeni.

The discussion of "who is more criminal" or which killing is Genocide and which is just "mass killing" is pointless to me.

So you're not picking a side on ww2 because Hitler was bad but Churchill was also bad?

[–] sun_is_ra@sh.itjust.works 0 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

I'd choose the side that didn't deliberately mass kill civilians, didn't force women from occupied territories into prostitution, didn't perform forced lethal medical experiments on civilians, ....

You think you're making a point but you're only showing that you have no idea that Churchill did all of those things.

Need to support Iran and Russia critically at bare minimum. They are the ones resisting imperialism.

The biggest country in the world military conquering his neighbors is imperialism. The only reasonable things to do is supporting Ukraine against Russia, and Iran against US and Israel.

The US is helping Russia against Ukraine despite Russia helping Iran against US. (Lifting sanctions to Russia, raising oil prices financing Russia, withdraw military and financial support from Ukraine)

Ukraine is an ally of Israel and the gulf states. Ukraine itself is governed by Nazis thanks to the US-backed coup in 2014.
