Iran democratically elected a socialist leader, Mohammad Mosaddegh, in 1952. The US (and UK) didn’t like that, so they ushered a coup and installed the Shah, a brutal dictator, in 1953. Then in 1979, Iranians had enough of his bullshit and overthrew the government with the Islamic Revolution, voting in Ruhollah Khomeini as the new Ayatollah of the Islamic Republic of Iran.
Have we ever once considered that the reason why certain sovereign nations in the world behave the way they do was because sometime in the 20th century, the US interrupted their progress towards socialism. See also Latin and South America.
Maybe the US should just stop interfering with other countries and let the people decide what’s best.
America makes money when they destabilize sovereign nations and install their puppets to say “yes” whenever American corporations come to extract (read: steal) their resources.
America does NOT make money when socialist states like Iran and Cuba nationalize their oil industry such that economic commerce can only happen through the government and its people.
This is why America gets involved internationally: it’s to fuel their corporate greed and endlessly subjagate the Global South all for the benefit of the Imperial Core.
