Authoritarian Islamic fundamentalism.
As opposed to western "Divine Secular Absolutism"? Real funny looking words you got there, when stringed together.
Authoritarianism is a dumb, useless and meaningless term, when you understand that every state assumes authority (name me one country that doesn't assume authority, therefore isn't "authoritarian").
1979 happened because you libs couldn't stop trying to meddle in Iran's affairs.
Coulda saved spared us from the dogwhistle by just saying "they're not white".
Every state has authority over its citizens but some of them let women drive and not have to stay covered up and unable to move around or do anything eithout a man and don't support child marriage.
Hope this distinction helps!
To be clear fuck Israel they started this shit with Iran and I dont support it. But for you to say Iran isn't authoritarian is ignorant of the facts.
I have never seen evidence that women are not allowed to drive, and I have had Iranians tell me the contrary. IRNA Irans state news if it was not down from likely DDOS I would show you posted an immage of one of the dead from Israels attack, was a women without a head covering, agian there is no evidence I can find that it is a law, just a large cultural preference. Same think with a women in Iran being dependent on a man, I have seen no evidence for this outside of the Western press.
I just want to ask a clarification, are you saying anti-child marriage is a bad thing???
