I have an Iranian coworker, who was really optimistic that this time would be different. I tried my best to politely say that while there’s a chance something could happen, the USA isn’t really about freedom/liberty even on the surface anymore, and that even if the regime did get toppled it would potentially end really poorly for people given the tone of the international “western” community these days (Israel and the States would likely pillage the hell out of Iran if given a chance, and they wouldnt’ give a damn about the people).

Sad.
