Here is a link of people celebrating Khamanei's death.

really. that news site is based in london, funded with saudi money, and their openly stated stance is pro-monarchist, opposed to the islamic republic and allegedly pro-israel. :-) the videos are blurred out and it's not really clear what they represent, or when that happened. really crappy job.

There are no doubt pro-regime demonstrations. When such a vicious regime demands a supportive demonstration, people will comply.

really. so if they demonstrate it has to be because the "vicious regime demands it", foregone conclusion.

know what, let's just wait a bit and see! they surely will overthrow the vicious government they hate so much any time now, right?

your parents did well. don't think for a second that "presidents" are happy people. they're not. they're psychopaths, which literally means "spiritual suffering" (sort of).

now, if you manage to get elected and keep your ethics ... that would be a thing! but note that your life could end very abruptly. probably not worth it.

I know many Iranians. Not a single one of them supports the regime.

how many of them are actually in iran? if you're talking about a few expats in london or ny i can believe that.

There were many videos of Iranians inside Iran celebrating when Khamanei was killed.

in iran? i doubt that. do you have a link? killing khamenei was like killing the pope, the whole shia community is aghast.

here's a video of actual iranians in iran, it's just a few hours old: https://t.me/DDGeopolitics/180...
these videos just keep coming in, i can show you many others if you want. they demonstrate for the regime every day, even under attack. these are very brave and dignified people, they're indeed royally pissed but not precisely with their government atm, and they will not yield.

oh, i know. i just read that starting next year german males aged 17-45 will need explicit permission to leave the country for more than 3 months. it's coming, they are all pushing for world war and it's going to get very nasty pretty soon. i guess the ponzi scheme needs to be recycled. it's not even the military planners, it's the bankers.

otoh i totally understand your concern if another power becomes hegemonic, be it china, russia, iran or whatever. but guess what, it is us (as in "we, the west") who have military bases all over the world, it's the us that enforces its currency as international reserve currency, it's the us that has been involved in wars non stop all over the place for the good part of a century.

so unlike china, russia or iran, the us has actually a good track record of fucking up the world and exploiting other countries so their elites can enjoy the good life, and their populations can enjoy some crumbs. russia's alleged "expansionism" is just a media trope, it makes no sense. china hasn't fought a war in a century. iran only one, because the us threw saddam hussein at them. none of these countries has a colonial past or present. ofc it isn't impossible that if (or when) they become dominant powers they change their ways, but there is really no evidence for that.

so it seems to me you are very afraid of the possibility of abuse, while totally fine with actual systematic abuse because it's done by your guys. that doesn't work for me. anyway, there's no stopping it.

Very few people support the Islamic Republic regime.

actually, right now the overwhelming majority of the iranian population does, and i don't see how anyone's opinion from elsewhere in the world is relevant. it's called "rally the flag", and it's what tends to happen when foreign powers kill your leaders, children and generally bomb you for no reason. somehow they thought iranians would cheer them on or throw their arms up into the air ...

We all know it's a disgusting regime.

who is "we all" and how do you know? honestly, i don't really know many details about their philosophy or government style. what is it you actually find so disgusting? facts, please. mind, no population on the planet loves their regime 100%. but it should tell you something when repeated, coordinated and violent attempts at inciting an overthrow have systematically failed, and only strengthened support. maybe those assumptions weren't really right?

in other news, as an european, i actually like a lot what the irg is doing. it was about time someone kicked those american bullies out of western asia, put israel in their place and completely disrupt the rotten "international order" while they're at it. they're fucking heroes and the world should be grateful.

Some bodies are eager to store every surplus calorie as fat, most aren't. Some people have reliable hunger signaling, some don't. There's a lot of genetic variation and biology is not deterministic.

wow, that's a heck of a lot of genetic drift in not even 50 years. are you guys inbreeding too?

I'll be sure to point out that you're a smug, clueless asshole.

yeah ... that's surely gonna help.

I know Sam Altman is the modern version of a classic scam artist, presenting just enough real results to skyrocket valuations out of all proportions. I know having too much money causes grandiose narcissists to just lose their mind spending on the most random shit possible. But, a talk show being bought by an "AI" company is still a thing I did not put on my bingo card.
