Iran is ruled by medieval knuckledraggers who believe that “allah” commands that one wipe themselves in a particular fashion after having gone to the toilet.
Correct. Liberals twist themselves into knots trying to "prove" that irrational regimes are rational. Since many libs evince a loathing of western values (the values that allow them to live free and easy lives), the opposite of western values must be good.
That would be Islam. Or violent, Islamic Iran. Or violent, misogynistic, anti-modernity Iran. Iran is a terror-supporting violent, misogynistic state that would like to drag the rest of world back to the seventh century. And we're supposed to treat them like they're rational? No thanks.
