A new survey has found that a record number of registered voters in the United States oppose the war on Iran and believe there is no strategy to end it.
A survey published on Thursday by Fox News found that 71 percent of voters believe the Trump administration “lacks a clear strategy” for ending the hostilities, which have helped to raise inflation and send fuel prices soaring.
They’re here on Lemmy, and they’re fucking nuts. I recently saw one say that opposition to the Iran war sounded like something Russia and China would be in favor of 😬
It’s actually a good point, ending it probably is something Russia & China would be in favour of, but that doesn’t make it wrong…
It’s an unjust war started by a narcisstic moronic fascist, but that doesn’t make the Iranian leadership any less of a toxic dictatorship.
Would they? The war is damaging US reputation further worldwide, isn’t that good for Russia and China?
Russia yes, China probably no. Russia exports oil so Hormuz getting blocked is good for them, but China imports oil and would much rather oil prices stay low until they can fully decarbonize. The US squandering its soft power is probably a cherry on top for Russia and a silver lining for China, but the latter would probably still rather have fuel for their factories.
Making decisions based on what Russia and China think and not the effects of those policies and harm to others is honestly baby brained. Not accusing you of that, but that’s definitely what the original comment I was referencing was doing. All people everywhere deserve to be free, including the Iranian people, but the terror campaign initiated by the US and Israel against Iran makes nobody safer and senselessly kills many.
