    I am definitely not an expert on Iran, so I will not say whether Iran truly has a history of human rights abuses or not, but I have to say the citations of that Wikipedia article ia full of citations from sources that have clear vested interest in the United State hegemony. This is the exact kind of Wikipedia article teachers warned aginst citing when I was in school.

      In the time it took you to type that a rational adult could have just looked it up…

      You’re from .ml, I have zero idea what you would consider an acceptable source. And I’m not fucking playing that game where every time I link something you say it’s not good enough.

      You didn’t understand then

      You don’t understand now.

      I see no reason to believe my time would be more helpful than you’re teachers.
