      Hey maybe don’t judge an entire culture by its worst adherents? Are we really still doing this 9/11-era nonsense?

        I don’t believe they mentioned anything about the USA. That was you making an assumption. For all I know, they believe the same about the USA.

        Also, chill out. Telling a stranger to get bent is wild.

          So is calling an entire culture primitive. At least mine is targeted at someone using open bigotry rather than issuing a blanket statement for entire people.

        They can both be bad. Lashes for not covering your hair us awful. The US is also carrying out brutal and terrible things. US government actions don’t mean everyone should ignore the shitty things the Iranian government does.

        “Iran is doing some pretty awful shit to a particular citizen of theirs.”

        “Well wah, what about the U.S?!??”

        Like, seriously? You must have practiced this in the mirror before you typed this, you basement dwelling weirdo

          I included the “what about” in my initial response, but realized how pointless it is to argue with who deny words when they’re written in the thread they’re arguing about.
