Gotta love how over on r/poldersocialisme, the Dutch left reddit, are having a struggle session on Iran because an Iranian person randomly showed up to say: but Iran also bad
Personally, I'm locking arms on explicit anti-imperialism and defense against western aggression. We can work out the details later.
I think people should be skeptical of things they see in the internet. I also want to add the The communist parties (ML and Maoist) of Iran have a pretty bad position right now because they are calling for regime change. I know how Iranian regime has been absolutely terrible for any leftist or Marxist parties. However, if Iran were to fall right now, so would the entire axis of resistance. Additionally, there wouldn't be an Iran, just a collection of factions fighting against each other, just like Iraq.
I'm pretty sure the Tudeh party (not the CPI I know) hasn't called for regime change, instead condemning the Israeli aggression and stating that all this attack does is make the regime stronger. Their reasoning being that until the imperialist threat of the US is gone from the region, the conditions for regime change are untenable.
This is my position as well
