Israel is executing gay people, and straight people, and fathers, and mothers, and babies, and the elderly, and the sick, and the disabled, people in hospitals, and in refugee camps, and Muslims, and Christians, and Jews, and on, and on.
I don’t think people are cheering them on in general. Just cheering them on against Israel. Which, like…yeah. One of these countries has been committing outright genocide and murdering journalists and aid workers en mass for the last 2 years, and then provoked this latest attack by firing missiles at the other.
80* years
How long has Iran been killing gays?
I’m guessing it really picked up after the 1979 islamic revolution, so 46 years.
The state of Israel was recognised by the US in 1948, so 77 years ago.
How does this plays out in your head now? Please explain, but I’m really curious how one thing related to the other.
And Iran has been supplying drones for Russia so they can do the same in Ukraine.
They are both shit countries committing genocide directly or indirectly, they should fight each other to extinction.
Israel has also been supllying drones to Russia. They even demanded Ukraine to surrender to Russia.
This is not to challenge your statement. I find it important to understand that Israel is neither on the side of Ukraine, or on the side of NATO. Israel has no allies, it only has bitches doing its bidding.
Israel is not on the side of NATO
The things I have to read on this website, I swear
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Israel–Russia_relations#Drones
In April 2009, Russia purchased its first package of drones from Israel (the Bird Eye-400, eight I-View Mk150 and two Searcher Mk.2 UAVs). The deal was worth $53 million.[231] In a second deal, at the end of 2009, Russia purchased an additional 36 drones from Israel, in a deal worth $100 million.[228]
In October 2010, in a third deal, Russia purchased an additional $400 million of drones from Israel Aerospace Industries. The Israeli drones are to be assembled in Russia.[232] The production of the Russian-Israeli drones began in 2012, and delivery to the Russian military is scheduled for 2014.[228]
In 2015, one of the drones was reportedly shot down by the Ukrainian military near the city of Donetsk, Ukraine.[233]
In September 2015, the Russian Army purchased another $300 million package of drones from Israel, its fourth purchase of Israeli drones.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Israel–Russia_relations#2022_Russian_invasion_of_Ukraine
On 24 February 2022, Israeli Foreign Minister Yair Lapid spoke out against the Russian invasion of Ukraine, stating “Russia’s attack against Ukraine is a serious violation of international order,”…
Lapid’s remarks were criticized by Opposition Leader Benjamin Netanyahu, who urged the Israeli government “to speak less about what they don’t need to talk about” on Russia and accused the government of “too many unnecessary expressions and too many false predictions”.
Israel declined to co-sponsor a UN Security Council resolution condemning the Russian invasion, leading to an expression of disappointment by the United States.[118] Israel later voted in favour of a UN General Assembly resolution condemning the invasion.[119] At the request of the United States, Israel also pushed the United Arab Emirates to back the resolution.[120]
An unnamed senior Ukrainian official accused Bennett of having “proposed that we surrender”, claiming that Bennett urged Zelenskyy to “take the offer” of a peace deal from Putin. This report was subsequently denied by both the Israeli Prime Minister’s office and a senior adviser to Zelenskyy.[125]
Following the Bucha massacre, Israeli Finance Minister Avigdor Lieberman condemned “war crimes” but declined to condemn Russia specifically, describing “mutual accusations” where “Russia blames Ukraine and Ukraine blames Russia”, drawing a rebuke from the Ukrainian Ambassador to Israel.[130] However, Foreign Minister Lapid stated that “Russian forces committed war crimes”.[131] Israel subsequently voted for a resolution to suspend Russia from the United Nations Human Rights Council.
in February 2025, Israel joined Russia in voting against a UN General Assembly resolution reaffirming Ukraine’s territorial integrity.[189]
In February 2025, Israel lobbied the United States to allow Russia to maintain military bases in Syria, as a counterweight to Turkish influence there.[190]
In March 2025, Russia invited Israel to attend its 2025 Moscow Victory Day Parade, despite excluding most Western nations.[191]
Again, Israel has no allies as it extends no loyalty to anyone. It only has bitches doing its bidding.
I don’t think people are cheering them on in general.
I wish that was true, but I’ve seen plenty of people cheer Iran on in general.
Campism is utter brainrot.
Yeah, I’ve seen a ton of flat-out support for Iran and Hamas on here, and it just hurts my head. Particularly when it comes from members of the LGBTQ communities.
Like… do they not realize what these people would do to them if they had the chance?
Particularly when it comes from members of the LGBTQ communities
So, you, the (likely white and straight) saviour has to tell the gays what to do and who to support?
Israel, by shielding all its genocide in fake rainbow flags and under the guise of “western values”, does SO MUCH damage to LGBT communities all over the middle East. When you’re seeing “the self-proclaimed gay-friendly Jews” steal your land and attempt to murder your entire people, don’t you think there might be reasons why the oppressed end up having negative feelings about gays and Jews? Obviously LGBT-phobia is bad, but it is literally the west who forced this.
In the particular case of Iran, in the mid-20th century, the country democratically elected Mosaddegh, a secular and progressive leader who believed in feminism and who was in a coalition with broad leftists. What did the west do? Economic blockade to Iran because it wanted to nationalise IRANIAN oil fields that belonged primarily to BP, and staged a coup against him.
It’s literally the fault of the west that Iran didn’t develop as a better-functioning progressive, secular democracy.
me when people like you conveniently start to pretend to care about gay people only when something happens to Israel
The other 350 days a year they’re “concerned” about the fairness of allowing trans athletes to compete.
Nah dog. We ain’t cheering. We eating popcorn.
I personally am enjoying the popcorn, but some people are so anti-Israel they ended up pro-Iran
EDIT: the popcorn
People are cheering on Iran out of pure spite, not out of genuine support for Iran.
The American people are tired of our government spending out tax dollars to support a genocide and then gaslighting us about it when we call them out. They are also persecuting dissenters on it. This has happened under both Biden and Trump, though Trump has leaned more on the persecution. We are fucking sick of it.
There is satisfaction in seeing someone stand up to genocidal Israel, even if the party doing so is despicable in their own right. I think people would greatly prefer getting behind a western democracy taking a stand, but we’re at a point where people will take what they can get. Especially with it being clear that the aforementioned western democracies aren’t going to do shit against genocidal Israel.

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.
Iran has consistently been politically, diplomatically, economically and morally opposed to the Zionist entity since before I was born.
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.
To non Americans, watching Americans trying to lead the charge against genocide, colonialism and unjust wars is a clown show to me. Especially because it will all be forgotten the next time the U.S invades another country. I’m not against any of these ideas, I just want Americans to shut it and fix their own shit right now
So are you contending that gay people should be openly supportive of Isreal, a country actively engaged in a genocide?
You see the problem here, right? These aren’t black and white, one side good, one side bad situations.
Iran is a terrible country. My partner and I would both be stoned to death there. But there are also queer people living in Iran, in spite of their intolerant regime, many of whom would likely suffer greatly if Isreal manages to force Iran into a war.
Reality is more complicated than just assigning “good guys” and “bad guys”. That shit is for Star Wars.
In this specific situation, there is no justification for what Isreal has done. Their attacks on Iran have been unprovoked, and in clear violation of international law. These must recent attacks, by Israel’s own admission, include non-military targets which makes them war crimes. Iran on the other hand has responded carefully and proportionally. Does it feel weird to be giving props to such a horrific regime for their behaviour? Absolutely. But it’s impossible not to recognize that in this specific situation they are being the adult in the room.
Isreal is actively trying to provoke a war with Iran precisely because they believe it will turn international opinion in their favour, distract from the holocaust they are enacting in Gaza and shore up domestic support for their government. I’m not a fan of anyone involved in this situation, but I sure as hell am not going to express support for the country trying to start a war to distract from their genocide.
Basically, it’s like watching two of the worst people you know go at it in a fight.
Iran has problems, for sure, however it’s hardly the worst state in the region. In fact, on multiple occasions they’ve been willing to work with the UN and US to try and rejoin the international community.
The issue is both Israel and the US have acted like utter asses towards them.
Obama’s nuclear deal showed just how willing they were to engage in diplomacy. Even after Trump killed the deal, Iran was saying they’d be willing to renter again.
And frankly, the reason for Israel’s attack was almost surely because the Trump admin was again getting close to signing another nuclear deal.
There’s way too much conflating of Islamic nations and their policies. Iran isn’t perfect or great, but it is better than a fair number of the regions governments including many current allies.
If one tribe is bad, the other one must automatically be the good one.
There can never be such a thing as TWO bad tribes fighting each other.
With ordinary people who just want to live their lives slaughtered by both.
Wow people really out here having no clue what the zio regime is about…
This is a “let them fight” situation
