Thank goodness for the US world police, our righteous blue line is as thin as our understanding of reality, but we try our best! What barbarians for the Iranians to chant something so awful! It isn't right and they should know that.
God bless our bombs and jets as we free the Iranian people from a Theocracy!
edit so let me get this straight, this video is fake?
ok show me sources pls or stop making the claim
That picture isn't thousands- tens of thousands.
It's AI, so the actual number is zero
Maybe.
Ok I am looking this up now and double checking, can you please cite your sources please?
Does that really change the meaning of the meme? Any radicalism in response to our violence will do in its place, the details don't matter to those in power.
Yes, actually. Including made-up, fake-ass, low-effort propaganda DOES, in fact, change the meaning of the meme. Because whatever meaning you were trying to convey has now been replaced with: Pathetic, AI slop.
These strikes on Iran ARE AI slop, it hardly changes the meme, extremist hardline elements in Iran will only be strengthened by this.
Well, yes, your message stays the same, but spreading faked inages without cleary indicsting so has rarely been a good idea, further eroding trust in any form of media.
I tried looking up video of that and couldn't find anything either. So leaning toward it being AI.
The second picture is an AI fake.
It first got distributed by a Russian news agency known for spreading AI propaganda.
Its important that just because what we're doing is wrong, doesn't mean Khamenei was a friend to Iranians or well liked. Iran was in the middle of a revolution that was being extremely violently repressed and that shouldn't be whitewashed in the wake of US attacks.
Trump just did this, without any domestic approval, your point is ancillary to this discussion as Trump doesn't give a shit about Iranians wellbeing, he is trying to empower hard right elements in Iran so Iran will correctly do its job of playing scary islamic country so US and Israeli jingoistic propaganda has a chance of fooling people.
Not defending Trump and these attacks are a waste of human lives and a strategic shit-show, just getting ahead of a lot of the whitewashing of the current Iranian regime that's already popping up. We all know Trump and think he's a piece of shit. A lot of people haven't been paying attention to what was going on in Iran. Literally thousands were killed for protesting just in the last few months.

Fair, I have no desire to defend the Iranian government.
Where is my noble peace prize for blowing up the school kids? 🫲🍊🫱
