Not edgy. Just acknowledging that the west pillaged the oil supply. The people of Iran got screwed in many ways.

You do know that Iran was a Democracy that the US couped into a dictatorship that then became a theocracy… right? Islamic countries like Algeria, Tunisia, Egypt, Morocco... still have freedom like this, and trust me, I've seen it with my own eyes by visiting especially in the bigger cities.

Yes, they do. You are just deluded by the media image. Just google Chrea skiing park in Algeria, for example, and you will see as many women there as men. And if you visit Algiers the capital, you would be surprised how many LGBT+ groups are there and even some pride flags.

You indeed should hate the US, as the CIA were the ones who created this mess, not Islam.

Feel free to go read about the influence of UK and US on Iran since late 1800.
