May the ayatollah suffer as he dies and any gods witnessing his death remind him of the pain he brought to the women of his country.

Can always count on OP to beat the shit out of a straw caricature of everyone to the left of Henry Cuellar.
"I know how I'll support the anti-imperial cause! By supporting one of the longest imperial projects of human history predating even the civilization that gave us the etymological root of imperialism!"
🙄
By "actual Iranians" are you referring to the monarchist expats or people who actually live there? jw
The people who actually live there and are murdered by the regime in large numbers.
Loving the downvotes on an easily verified event. Some of us followed the issue while it was ongoing; some of us have been following Iranian politics for years. Sorry for pointing out that your favorite 'anti-imperialist' regime is murderous and oppressive. :)

I didn't even realize that was debatable, especially after the protest murders and executions.
Don't worry, you can still find plenty of tankies simping or "whatabout"ing for the Islamic Republic. They just file it away like Tiananmen Square - something to be excused or downplayed or deflected from.
This support for fascism just shows how bad things are in the world and how there's no hope.
It's a logical reaction and I can understand it. I think having multiple imperialism poles is better than having one global imperialist power controlling everything. Of course this world situation is a far cry from anything even remotely desirable, but I'd still be more satisfied with a US loss against China, Russia, Iran etc than from a US win against them. An oligopoly is better than a monopoly.
Unfortunately we are stuck in the very unfortunate situation where the only viable alternatives are all fascists. I can understand the sentiment of supporting an opponent of the empire you are in, but people need to stop seriously supporting any empires.
