Feminism has empowered women so much that every OnlyFans sloot can call herself a producer/creator
Exactly what God designed them to be
Except it was to produce children, create life

Pahlavi’s ruling regime was that of an authoritarian monarch, and human rights were often curtailed or violated.

That is because they are deluded. When you have all the beaver, you have a matriarchal society. It was the women who did the matchmaking for kings and queens (Diana Spencer was the daughter of a lady in Queen Elisabeth II's Court). In feudal Japan and China the women were smart enough to control who the men fought without having to fight themselves.

Some loved the Shah and had a portrait of him in their homes, others despised the regime and saw friends and family disappear via SAVAK (persian CIA equiv supported by the US) for voicing opposing views.
Things were pretty westernized, women in skirts and makeup going to the movies etc. My mother is Persian, when JFK was assassinated she wept. They watched American soap operas.
Many people there have never harbored ill will towards the US. They are being f’d over by their gov, just as our gov doesn't care about us just wants to stay in power and fake interest in domestic issues.

My Uncle, from Hicks/Leesville was in charge of the first oil well drilled off the coast of Iran. He got to eat with the Shah at his palace. Of course, the table was so large he said he could barely see him. I ran into one of his men in a small hospital in N La many years ago and he told me my uncle had the prettiest Iranian female as a girlfriend, and a few obscene stories he thought I wanted to hear. Small world.
Anyways, he liked the Shah.

I did enjoy my time there, just before the ayatollah returned. The Pahlavis dragged them into the modern age, and much of the violence was against the communists who stirred shite up. Food was great and everything was pretty open

They weren’t any better. They are the reason the Islamic republic came to be.
The reason is that Russia had a long lasting infiltration at the university level. Marxists started the revolt The Clerics moved in to partner then coopted it.
The average Persian bitched and moaned and made money

Think of the best of times under the shah. Then think of a 180 degree turn and many dead Americans afterward. Anyone who thinks of it otherwise deserves to be deported and lose their citizenship.

bc the people in Iran were starving and could barely make a life for themselves.
—under the Shah? No
