Just listed you 3 major groups who do not see themselves as Iranian, because the country doesn’t do that either.

Iran has 82 million inhabitants.
The amount of people willing to die for this regime is much much smaller. 16% are Azerí, 10% Kurds and 2% Balochi, all groups who would rather die than fight for the IRI. Not that this would stop the IRI from pressing 15 year olds into service, but there wouldn’t be many volunteers.
Brother, I have in laws in Iran. The regime is a brutal pile of dog turd, but at least they have the decency to just cultural genocide the kurds and not do an actual one.
They aren’t the good guys, they are the smaller pile of shit.
Israel has a larger nuclear arsenal right now.

Everywhere, where humans established empires, they dehumanized and colonized. Claiming that somehow western Europeans specifically are inherently more prone to doing that.
Even the claim “since Jesus’ birth” false. In the meantime, especially in the early years, there were larger empires than the “western European” ones.

The Eastern world had its fair share of absolute dehumanization, be it the extreme brutality in education systems (Pol Pot claimed to have been beaten senseless by teachers multiple times for minor infractions and he had seen this as normal), the Mongol Empire razing cities on a monthly basis or the countless bloody civil wars in Chinese history. Name me a culture and I will name you the ways in which they dehumanized others.

Because that’s what the Chemtrail conspiracy claims. Every contrail in the air is actually designed to kill you or make you infertile or dumb or clog your third eye.

This isn’t about siding with anyone. You’re putting words in my mouth. I never said the majority would not take up arms, I said there are groups who are ikely not to pick up arms.
There is no Iranian nationality, there is a core of Persian Iranians, who are considered the only Iranians and then there are peripheral groups. Those groups neither feel Iranian, nor do they like the central government.
