What realm of reality do you live in because the United States is a massive force of evil. Invading nations, ignoring international law, starting illegal blockades, bombing school children, bombing first responders, starving children, helping enable a genocide.

The idea that Iran has a worse international reputation is laughable. The US is literally causing a global recession, along with an energy crunch, and likely manmade induced famine that will ruin the lives of 10s of millions of people; or do none of these lives matter because they have the wrong shade of melatonin?

Whatever goodwill the US built from WW2 has been thoroughly destroyed.

I wish I could say we deserve the imperial boomerang but the only people that will continue to suffer, both domestically and abroad, will be innocent civilians while the elites (who are the only beneficiaries of US imperialism) go unpunished.

And this is strictly talking about political governance, US corporations are another layer of evil as well.

I'd ask the same question of you (except all the emotional stuff)

If you can't get emotional over the needless deaths of innocent school children, something is clearly wrong with you.

you get emotional over one specific type of propaganda

Innocent children dying because of US imperialism should make everyone emotional and angry. I feel bad for you since you seem to be without a soul, hopefully you find one some day before you pass because you desperately need humanity in your life if this is your outlook.

every innocent death is a tragedy. you're just selecting which ones to advance your opinion.

The bombing of the Iranian school is fact, not propaganda.

Fact1: Iran executed tens of thousands of citizens over political opposition since the start of this year, and is still executing others today. Fact2: Iran has cut off its population from the internet.

Can you find equivalent facts from USA to justify the parallels you are drawing?

Fact1: USA was founded on a genocide, with an actual legal proceeding to establish that indigenous people had no soul and no rights (Valladolid controversy). Fact2: USA employed slavery for centuries and later replaced it with "wage slavery", and actually never abolished slavery for convict, leading to the highest carceral population in the entire world. Fact3: The USA has broken most of its peace treaties (first and foremost with indigenous nations) and annexed all its neighbors (Texas, Puerto Rico, Haiti, etc).

That's just scratching the surface. Please note i'm not defending the Iranian government which is monstruous. I'm arguing the USA government is just as monstruous. And nothing will ever justify a country attacking a foreign nation. Remember when attacking Iraq and Afghanistan was supposed to liberate their peoples? See how that turned out.

Your "facts" proved my point.
