By now, the US lead 'regime-change operation' have failed - miserably. Millions of Iranians went on to the streets and protested pro government, and against the small group of artificially agitated rioters than stood for all the violence/provocations (and filmed/sent via starlink oc).
The ugly and very unpleasant truth for us privacy oriented people, is that US are using us as internet-warriors to breach firewalls setup by attacked nations. ANY nation that does not have an internet firewall and their own social media, will get their population propagandized and be hi-jacked/politically colonized by the US Plutocracy. The 'wevil ones' are proclaimed as Dictators/Authoritarians in violent regimes that oppress their people, but the only thing these nations do 'wrong', is that they won't surrender their nations to the US/Western overlords. A fair and humble wish, I think.
Chinese, Russian and Iranian people don't need us to fight for their 'freedom', bc they have much more freedom than we do in the West, and it is us that are completely propagandized to believe that everyone else is 'savages' and needs our Oligarchs to come in and 'put things in order' - we are no better than the common shitters of the past that supported and allowed the wipeout of the wevil Indians, supported slavery and colonization throughout the West.
We still moronically believe the embarrassing US narrative of the 'Wevil non-civilized regimes' out there, and thus supports the US Plutocracy in constantly killing off/terrorizing millions of people and dozens of peaceful nations/people.. Yay for us - the progressive west..
