But remember...we were told to support Turkey against poor Armenia because it is “against Russia and Iran”....lies we were told by Ankara’s DC lobbying arm about “Turkey is against Russia and Iran, a bulwark...blah blah...”....yeah Ankara and Moscow and Tehran work together https://twitter.com/afp/status/1343876453646147586
When someone says “support a bullying wealthy powerful thuggish dictatorship to crush a small poor minority as part of geopolitics” the only answer is always “no”. No, I will never support a thuggish authoritarian regime against the poor and weak as a means
Imagine the confusion that some sided with horrid dictatorships against a more democratic and free Armenia....all in the ridiculous propaganda name of “being against Iran/Russia”....it was all lies and nonsense to excuse ethnic cleansing of the poor and vulnerable
I oppose the regime in Iran the same way I oppose Ankara, both are awful and crush freedom. In terms of crushing minorities, Ankara is worse, in terms of hangings, Iran is worse. They are both horrible. They both erode freedom abroad and crush dissent and free thinkers.
This isn’t a right/left issue or ideological. It’s just reality. Either you care about the poor and vulnerable and those who want a right to dissent...or you don’t.
