GG wp it's over we fucking lost

Liberal axis in Iran has gobbled up power. Iran will liberalize when Khamenei is replaced. FUCK

Damn that's fucking bleak. Are they at least looking east or are they looking to be Honorary "Aryans" (ie I realise the irony of using that term to symbolise white supremacism to an Iranian)? Is there any chance that they may adopt anti-western-hegemony despite their bourgoisie sensiblities, even from a national self preservation point of view?

I don't think so. Our libs really like to make deals with the west. And let's be honest, our deals with the east are less than ideal anyways. We can't even sign good deals with China if the sanctions stay, so we have to somehow get rid of sanctions anyway

Sanctions don't matter anymore if Iran strengthen relations with BRICs countries. This is the strategy that Venezuela, Cuba, Nicaragua, Burkina Faso and the DPRK have taken and it has proven successful.

With this in mind, deals with the east are very much desirable compared to deals with the demons in the west.

Depends on how BRICS+ deals with sanctions and how the libs respond, the libs have always preferred dealing with the west.

[–] rainpizza@lemmygrad.ml 3 points 1 month ago

It depends. Russian libs that preferred the West were all shunned when SMO started and there are other similar examples(Mexican libs also are forced to seek diversification).

For me, I see that Iran has a great opportunity to create a new and stronger faction which is the pro BRICS. BRICS+ knows how to deal with sanctions and there is a lot of proof of that. We all have to keep pushing for a new world that we dream about in all of our hearts. The fight lives on.
