No, Iran is definitely worse in every capacity, but you’re still correct that this entire conflict is entirely run by deranged old men with fragile egos.
No dude, you’re underestimating Iran’s regime. When I still lived in Iraq, they would literally pay school children pocket change so they could stand around and manufacture a crowd while their propped up proxy politicians give a pro-Iranian speech. This is their genuis idea to convince Iraqis that they’re actually popular in our communities.
And I’m telling you that you lack perspective. I actually lived in both regions. I’ve seen this first hand. Trump is trying to speed run us into an autocracy, but Iran is way past that point. If a regime change happened and the current theocracy was replaced by a flawed autocracy, that would still be seen as a big improvement by many Iranians.
No worse than the american theocracy.
Im not saying there’s anyone in this thread who couldn’t do better. Just that neither side if this conflict is playing with a full deck, cognitively.

Maybe a decade ago.

This isn’t praise for iran. What you say is entirely believable.
We’re on the same page, I’m just trying to express how low the Iranian regime is willing to go.
And im saying i don’t see a huuuuuge difference.
The americans are a bit better on balance right now, but trying their best to be much much worse. So im considering the two about even.
