    Shit is going down in Iran. Not sure what exactly, I guess they killed some lady for not wearing the thing muslim women wear?

    Good. Get rid of those religious authoritarian assholes you've called leaders for decades and make something better.

    I was just reading about this. It looks like they have shut down access to Whatsapp, Instagram, and other services in Tehran and Khurdistan. 9 reported killed so far with street rallies in 15+ cities.

    Changing this thread title to 'Mahsa Amini' would probably be appropriate. Just throwing it out there.

    And to think it was the U.S. who helped these religious zealots gain power in Iran.

    This is not true....quite the opposite actually...they took power the same way the Bolsheviks took power in Russia against the Czar....we just backed the Shah who was the guy who lost his country..Iran's revolution was of their own design...credit where credit is due...America was broke and struggling under Jimmy Carter

    I don't think so. She wanted the world that gave us Trump. She was bought and paid for, and her path would have led us to Trump or DeSantis eventually.

    None of her policies actually solve anything.
