Exiled Iranians are usually hardcore atheists

I’m honestly asking this- are they? I’ve never heard this before. Where did you get that information from?

Edit: I should add that I was fairly active in the atheist community in Los Angeles, which does have a large Iranian/Persian population, and I don’t remember them being prominent members of the community, but it’s been a long time now, so I might just be forgetting.

It’s really only a matter of time until countries just start genetically engineering or modifying their athletes anyway. And good luck regulating that.

I’d add a fourth-

The last thing that needs to happen is for people to be too intimidated to vote.

I’ve spent a good 60 seconds looking at this picture trying to figure out what it is supposed to mean and I still don’t know.

And I bet Brazil doesn’t have a Supreme Court that will decide he was allowed to commit whatever crimes he wanted.

Most people don’t period. He was a Catholic that wanted a theocracy. Just because V for Vendetta promoted the guy doesn’t mean he should have been promoted.

Considering voter ID is required in most states now, you have to show your face in order to vote.

Also, this really wouldn’t work in Oregon since it’s all vote by mail there.

This is just anti-Muslim racism.

There is no reason to believe that this woman is not herself a Muslim. Not all Muslims are in favor of head scarves. Iran was a Muslim country while the Shah ruled it too despite head scarves not being required in Tehran at the time. Is she a horrible person? Did she do something unconscionable? Absolutely. But I think calling her a racist for what she did when she could be Muslim herself is going a bit too far.

I’m sure some people want it to happen, but Netanyahu isn’t suicidal. He’s not going to destroy Gaza just so he can die of radiation sickness.

Yeah, but can you survive a hydrogen bomb blast in a 1980s fridge? No, you need a 1950s fridge for that.

Breathe a sigh of relief, Britain. The NHS is saved.

Don’t kink shame.

At least read the article:

The Atlantic route is particularly dangerous due to strong currents, with migrants travelling in overloaded, often unseaworthy, boats without enough drinking water.

But sure, they killed themselves in order to get rescued.

Israel is not going to nuke Gaza. They can’t control the wind. Iran maybe. Gaza, no way. That’s just poisoning themselves. They may be genocidal, but they’re not that stupid.

I understand. Jell-O used to make me extremely angry too.

And yet private industry which enriched corporations was not a feature of communist countries in the 20th century. They didn’t need to enrich individuals and create profit for private businesses.

Those aren’t nationalized resort hotels. Nationalized resort hotels could make lots of money from tourists too.

He’s my favorite ice man after Bobby Drake.

Many more will drown as they become increasingly desperate to reach the places least affected by climate change.

Just like last time, right?
