Because someone held a flag in austrailia 8 months before this current Iranian conflict, you assume “the left” (globally!?) is in support of the Ayatollah?
Even more rich because Iran is currently massacring their /leftist/ population who were protesting for rights like /free markets/. How does that dissonance feel to you?
> you assume “the left” (globally!?) is in support of the Ayatollah?
Where did I imply that, justonceokay? And no, I don't think every leftist supports the Ayatollah. Do you think every leftist, globally, doesn't support them?
I was as vague as you were, in referring to leftists. I gave a concrete example of there being confusion about who the bad guys, since you questioned why leftists (or anyone) would be confused.
Because there are literally pro-Palestine protests that have supporters of Iran's supreme leader[1].
I've seen a lot of comments and sentiment from leftists in support of Iran.
What bug(s) do you have, that you didn't know this?
