No sympathy for either except civilians caught in between.

The best thing in this is that Russia may receive less drones from Iran used to bombard Ukraine, so that makes me happy

Iran has multiple orders of magnitude on its hands - gay or otherwise - than any country that supports Israel.

If you can understand why people cheered on the British Empire during World War Two - even though it was one of the most brutal, genocidal entities in history - but can't understand why people would critically support Iran now, you are just a white supremacist.

Everybody sucks in this conflict.

Are we confusing governments for the civilians who live under their rule?

Supporting Iran limits the ability of Israel to commit to their genocide, support Israel only enhances their capability to genocide and supporting neither only benefits Israel which make use of their partnership with the west

Hate Iran all you want, despise them, that's fine, but we need to pick anything at this point when the alternative is Israel

It might be better for the gays in Israel, but what about the gays in Palestine, or simply the people within Gaza?

You can reform a state to treat gay people like humans, you can't reform a genocidal state

Because the opposite side is Israel, a country that literally executes medics and children

who is cheering them on? im fairly displeased with this whole 'US getting sucked into a regional war because of Israel ' situation

If a country that was more progressive than the US (not hard to find one) started bombing the shit out of New York City, would you be like “well, they deserve it for their transphobia”?

Do you realize that Orthodox Jews consider women to be inferior to men? Like, they won’t even shake a woman’s hand.

Sacha Baron Cohen, Zionist shithead though he is, actually got chased down the street in Israel by an angry mob for playing his flamboyant gay character Bruno. He had to yell “I’m a Jew I’m a Jew” to keep from getting the shit kicked out of him.

Israel is literally committing genocide RIGHT NOW. I’m sure there are plenty of gay, trans, nonbinary Palestinians who have head their limbs blown off, if that’s really what upsets you.

The genocide apologism is so obvious it’s sad. You point to one issue that will make liberals go “oh no, scary Muslims!” and you run with that. Fix your heart.

Two wrongs don't make a right.

It's pretty "funny" the amount of people who imagine this as some "foreign conflict" between "two sides", when it's a direct continuation of USAian imperialism. It's not surprising that brainwashed libs are hating on an "official enemy". Libs and their politicians have supported these attacks on Iran for decades.

I don't think people are cheering on Iran, I think they're cheering for Israel to be on the receiving side of violence for once.

And trans people aren’t treated as equal and they are constantly attacked by their fellow citizens.

Oh wait that’s America.

I don’t know much about Iran, but do they have legalized slavery? Because America does.

Is the Iran regime bad? Yes. Are they colonial outpost that is actively committing genocide? No. Are the Iranian people settlers like the Israelis? No.

Who is dragging the US into war with Iran and potentially WW3? Israel.

Does this help maybe?

In this conflict I learned to take no side, except the one of the victims who didn't ask to be involved.

That's not a justification, Israel is also killing Iranian gay people...
