The whole thread is pretty doomer (maybe they're right, I don't know) but there is one very good point. Iran not developing nuclear weapons might be one of the worst decisions ever. I saw one video by the new atlas channel that says Iran didn't develop a nuclear weapon because public opinion would shift against them. I'm sorry nuclear weapons means public opinion doesn't matter. Posturing as if you're going to develop nuclear weapons but not developing them is literally the worst move. Maybe Iran wasn't posturing, but they second they were accused of developing nuclear weapons they may as well have been as far consequences go.

Monarchies are resilient like cockroaches unfortunately. That means you need to end the line. That is dark as hell. I couldnt do it but it's the one thing that works. I have honestly thought what the solution to this dilemma is and tbh I have no fucking clue.

Just goes to show that podcasts simply are not a replacement for actual reading.

Them being doomers is definitely true. Maybe years of watching empire destroy the world will do that but your analysis also ends up biased

I was listening to the radio war nerd episode (its free on podbean) and they think that Iran took an absolute beating and that their response was pretty pathetic. Any opinions on this?

Also Iran ffs get a nuke. The west will turn you into Libya if you let them.

I think cryptos in general are now just financial instruments like derivatives

Yeah but I don't think that's fair. Like the Democrats and Republicans are two sides of the same coin. They work hand in hand. Iran is still in direct opposition to the sellouts and the imperialists. Just not enough but they are. I still think they are extremely stupid for not getting a nuclear weapon if they had the ability to do so.

Iran definitely goofed by not getting nukes. I think that doomed the resistance from the start. What I dont understand though is why people expect so much from Iran. Like Saudi, Egypt, this new Syrian regime, Jordan (Turkey? Azerbaijan ?) have all sold out like pathetic dogs serving their masters. Nobody talks about this.

I mean the middle east has major issues excluding Israel but if Israel were gone the US influence would be insanely reduced. Like if I had to put it as a percentage I'd say like 95%. Yeah this is pure speculation but without Israel it can't even justify it's middle eastern involvement to the braindead American populace. And honestly the US clearly wants to move to target China

I think Iran (like China and others before them) underestimate the rabidity of the US and Israel. Russia and North Korea are the only ones that understand
