(1) Which ‘forcibly’ ‘exiled’ Iranians? Monarchists? (2) The ACP is western yet is NOT “leftist”.

Note: the worm emoji (🪱) stands for “gusano / gusana”, meaning literally “worm” but also figuratively “reactionary, counter-revolutionary”.

        This is worth posting on the subreddit ShitLiberalsSay, flair “Outright Lying”.

        Too bad, Reddit permanently banned my account because I had hurted the delicate feelings of fragile Zionist and military redditors (whether current or former).

      The Enlightened Centrist OOP is critical of Pahlavi yet… supports the monarchist color “revolutionists” [1].

    Most of the so-called “exiles” feel more comfortable in the West and have no intention of ever returning anyway. Especially if the Islamic Republic were to fall, it would not be the monarchist/liberal “paradise” they imagine, it would be Libya/Syria.

    And their “exile” is overwhelmingly self-imposed. They could just travel to Iran if they really wanted to. All they would need to do is not commit crimes while they’re there. Perhaps they are just telling on themselves and admitting that they would not be able to control themselves and would start committing crimes if they were to go back.

    Or they they have already actively collaborated with the Anglo-Zionist enemy to commit crimes against Iran. In which case, they fully deserve whatever they would get if they were to ever step foot in Iran again. Someone who betrays their own people and works with the imperialist enemy to kill their own countrymen is the lowest form of scum.

    forced into exile

    well…maybe if you’re a monarchist, but in any other case is just a second or third-generation migrant hallucinating about ways to feel “persecuted” by those evul iranians between ICE raids

    IRGC-organized propaganda event

    well…it’s obviously propaganda if it’s an american enemy!

    terrorist leaders

    it wasn’t the ayatollah who killed those schoolgirls (or raped girls in a nice island)

    why is there a worm emoji in the title? also I am confused by you mentioning them as an example of a disingenuous Iranian when it seems like something a westerner would say about Iran.
