dank memes

Rules:

  1. All posts must be memes and follow a general meme setup.

  2. No unedited webcomics.

  3. Someone saying something funny or cringe on twitter/tumblr/reddit/etc. is not a meme. Post that stuff in /c/slop

  4. Va*sh posting is haram and will be removed.

  5. Follow the code of conduct.

  6. Tag OC at the end of your title and we'll probably pin it for a while if we see it.

  7. Recent reposts might be removed.

  8. Tagging OC with the hexbear watermark is praxis.

  9. No anti-natalism memes. See: Eco-fascism Primer

Well, this comment is not surprising. Communists fought side by side with Islamic revolutionary guard during the Iranian revolution, but after revolution ended, they expelled communists and made communist parties illegal. All current Iranian communist parties are opposed to the Ayatollah rule.

That said, Iran is a fundamental piece of the axis of resistance, contributing materially to organized groups in Palestine (including PFLP), and anti-West groups. So Iran, even with a reactionary government, is still a fundamental piece for fighting Western imperialism in the region.

The Tudeh party recently announced its position of guaranteeing Iranian territorial integrity as a priority in their struggle:
