Trump did grow up in the Cold War era, and there's a good chance he remembers the pervasive fear of nuclear weapons. Especially as dementia makes you lost more recent memories first.

You don't understand the point of your whole conversation.

Of course he's an reckless idiot. Of course he shouldn't start a war with iran. Of course he shouldn't bomb school children. Fucking, duh.

But SINCE it already happened. A lot of Iranians are probably happy to see the Ayotollah gone. Yes.

"Leadership of Iran was killed and some people won't be sad about that particular aspect since the murder and oppress their own citizens"

"Oh so you love bombing schoolchildren?"

No. I dont. And thats a brand new sentence

I'm telling you what has happened versus what has not happened so far and that there's a difference. If you don't understand the present, you won't understand the future. If you're offended then grow up.

I said nothing of evil or not. I'm saying there's a distinction.

If Iran launched an attack on America tomorrow and took out its leadership but also hit buses of girl scouts parked nearby, how would that change your world?

Yes killing hundreds as collateral damage is different from killing hundreds of thousands in collateral damage.

06.03.2026 02:06 β€” πŸ‘ 1    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 1    πŸ“Œ 0

But Trump isn't trying to do carpet bombing either. America is mostly just being dumb and brazen and not caring too about collateral damage when hitting his targets. Or caring one bit what comes next and how the world will be reshaped.

Which is clearly bad, but in a different way.

Sure. You wouldn't see the U.S. as a liberators with your welfare in mind. They'd be right to be suspicious of our motives

Nevertheless many are extremely happy to see the Ayatollah gone.

I don't get the difficulty of this for people to comprehend?

If China swooped in tomorrow and took out American leadership, what would they do right now? Rally around the Secretary of Energy who is now in charge, or no?
