People are cheering on Iran out of pure spite, not out of genuine support for Iran

Speak for yourself. Iran has consistently been politically, diplomatically, economically and morally opposed to the Zionist entity since before I was born. I wish westerners had a shred of the empathy towards Palestinians that they pretend to have for gays in scary brown people countries when said countries oppose US interests. If you care so much about LGBT rights, go and fucking join an org in your home country, I'm sure you have plenty of far-right people committing hate crime against LGBT in your country, if not outright legalising it in the government.

Yes. Which is the very reason that they are getting critical support from many people right now.

I wish westerners had a shred of the empathy and everything after this point in your comment

Who are you addressing here? It seems like this isn't aimed at me, but rather people who support LGBT but then are upset about other people cheering on Iran?

Would be imprisoned and/or mutilated in Iran for gay. Still wouldn't want me and my family to be killed by Israeli bombs. If you support Israel, you are not an ally.

Critical support doesn't equate cheering out of spite.

And yes, I'm addressing you, who finds it inconceivable the fact that someone will support, critically or otherwise, the "scary brown people country" that the US designated a terrorist state.

Stop pointing fingers and start uniting.
