re: The US is the next Iran
Posted by Jjdoc on 8/31/26 at 6:25 pm to lake chuck fan
No sir. Its not. That, BTW, is the same thing the westernized Iran thought.
The core story they told for two decades was simple and sticky:
The Shah was not a national modernizer; he was a client installed and kept in place by the United States after the 1953 coup.
Iran’s oil wealth, industry, and army served foreign (especially American) interests and a thin “comprador” elite.
SAVAK, inequality after the oil boom, and cultural Westernization were symptoms of dependent capitalism and imperialism, not just personal tyranny.
Therefore the fight was both national (anti-imperialist) and social (workers and the poor versus the court, capitalists, and landowners).
This line came from the Tudeh Party, the Fedayeen theorists (Jazani, Pouyan, Ahmadzadeh), student groups in Iran and the diaspora Confederation of Iranian Students, and pamphlets that circulated underground. It was strongest on campuses and among some oil and industrial workers.
Ali Shariati was the crucial translator. He took Marxist class analysis and Fanon’s anti-colonial ideas and recast Shi‘ism as “red Shiism” — a religion of the oppressed (mustazafin) against the quietist “black” or Safavid clergy. Imam Hussein became a seventh-century revolutionary martyr rather than only a figure of mourning. His lectures, recorded on cassette, were widely copied among students and young professionals. Many slogans and much of the emotional vocabulary of 1978–79 came from that mix, not from Capital.
Khomeini and other clerics then borrowed the useful pieces — “oppressed versus oppressors,” anti-Americanism, social justice — while wrapping them in familiar Shi‘i language and mosque networks. The left supplied analysis and militant prestige; the clergy supplied the mass delivery system.
If you think its small, then you are not watching. Not watching results even. Somebody is voting for these people. And they are winning.

Study the history. The marxist moved in to sow discord and to help the religious political arm of Islam in iran.
They used phrases like death to America and the jews.
Today, the US is over ran with marxist. These people occupy offices. They are telling you want they want and make no bones about it. The Islamic people are doing their part too. They are making a lot of ground on the right even.
Even look at this board. You see it all the time. Anti jewish statements....But, history is repeating itself.

It isnt just Cali. Look around.
In fact look at the poster on this board that straddle the fence. Posters like Roger, etc. These people would rather fight against people that want Americans put first.
They go to bat for every sell out rino and trash Trump for calling them out.
This has been the pattern of every nation that has fallen to this. The radicals have 1 goal. The normal people can not stand together.
