imperialism is responsible for conservatism there
hey i only said more responsible, iranian conservatives still had their own historical agency and are definitely our enemies. i mean, they’re the ones who pulled the trigger, even if imperialism put the guns in their hands
i’ve always thought the decline of capitalism, or even just the accumulation of its downturns, had the consequence of people trusting authorities less than they used to, and that scientists just get thrown in the same bag (“people who mess with this convoluted stuff as if they know what they’re doing and just keep making my life worse”)
