Nobody said it was perfect. Iran is theocratic after all. However, who actually lives in complete freedom? Americans who can't even get healthcare? British people who can't even protest?

Israel is far more authoritarian and hostile towards the wrong kind of people, than Iran is. Iran isn't doing a genocide supported by the US/UK We have political parties in this country based on one policy of cruelty towards foreigners. They will win the next election. Iran doesn't have those policies.

People throw the perception of western freedom around as a stick to beat these inferior nations with, and we don't live in free societies, either.
