Great! Now that we agree that the Pahlavi monarchy was „awful“ and „one of the worst dictatorships“, you can hopefully finally answer my question - will the HRF distance itself from people and organisations that advocate for its reinstallment, or does the HRF not share the view that the Pahlavi monarchy was an awful dictatorship?
Re being a „pretender“, I‘m not sure what that means.
I agree that he‘s a grifting scumbag with zero actual chance of ruling the country, but Im not sure what you‘re trying to tell me with that statement.
Does that mean it would be ok for HRF freedom fellows to advocate for, e.g., the son of Assad to take over Syria as long as you dont take him seriously? Or is the qualifier here that he promises to hold fair elections? Does this mean it is ok to advocate for the reinstallment of an awful dictatorship as long as the sons dictator pinky promises to not be a dictator this time?
Re the current regime being „WORSE“, I‘m not sure what metric you use here - is it worse to order extrajudicial killings in the name of islam than in the name of big oil?
Right on time with the whataboutism btw - had already worried that you abandoned your favorite line of argumentation, but there it is alas :)
