US: Let's send weapons to our allies that are at war! Iran: We'll do the same! US: shocked Pikachu face

With the litte difference that russia is a brutal dictatorship who invaded a sovereign country and Iran is a brutal dictatorship too.

But I guess it's the same anyway, right?

All liberal "democracies" are brutal capitalist dictatorships.

At least Iran and Russia's interests are aligned with most of the world against imperial core countries.

Wtf did I just read? Have you ever been to Russia or any of the post-soviet block republic? Or are you just fantasizing from other side of the world?

Which part of my comment do you disagree with?

Are their foreign interests not aligned with Global South countries against imperial core ones?

Russia has consistently supported the sovereignty of Global South countries like Syria and Venezuela against the US, host Palestinian meetings, and are a core part of BRICS. While Iran supports and funds Yemen, Palestine etc. There's a reason sentiment like this is common in third world countries.
