I mean, the Islamic Republic isn't some sort of paragon of democratic ideals as well.

I find it intriguing that most Iranians want freedom and secularism, but their governments are never one or the other.

You can hate Pahlavi without loving the IR.

Yeah, nah. Fuck that. I do like his son, though.

It's funny because, well, for all their faults, Reza Shah was responsible for modernizing Iran in every sense of the word (during the Qajarid Period, we literally didn't have a standing army, any form of social security, almost no legislature (until the last few years, at least) and the country was basically a feudalist shithole). And Muhammad Reza, at least at the beginning, was trying his best to bring democracy to Iran, and even afterwards, as he started getting more and more absolutist (until he essentially illegalized all other parties with The Rastakhiz) he still improved civil and personal freedoms considerably.

And Reza II (The current head of the dynasty) is a pretty cool guy, though he doesn't even sound like a monarchist most of the time :p

What are you doing here then? You are an atheist, you love cursing Muhammad, there must be an Atheist Discussion Thread somewhere, go find it

Believe it or not, this thread is for more than just Muslims. Both me and Pilar have been regulars here for far longer than you've been on this site. You have no right to tell him what discussion he can get involved in.

There is actually very little difference between the Pahlavi regime and the current Mullah regime. They are both Fascism with different names. It's difficult to find true supporters of democracy in Iran, or even to find mentally stable and normal people. It's a country divided between Nazis and Communists. The most moderate one plans genocides by hobby.

It's more of a personal thing. I can't bring myself to at all like the man who ran the SAVAK. Especially not the SAVAK that killed all of my father's brothers and tried to kill my father.

That's strange, because I'm Iranian (waiting for Southern Azerbaijan to become independent) and I still have to find a Purrsian who is tolerant towards other ethnicities or ideologies

This is what I'm talking about. This is the mentality of most Persians. Racism and Ultranationalism. This doesn't sound like democracy to me, it's more like the Third Reich

You may have missed it but I'm far from a Pahlavi supporter. Also, where exactly did I include race in there?

Fun fact: Mesopotamia is not Iranian territory, they don't speak Farsi and they are Arabs, not Persians. Why do you always want to claim other people's countries? Isn't Iran big enough?

Iran is never big enough.

Also, there are Iranian Arabs. You do realize that, right? We even got invaded to "free" them and then they ended up supporting Iran over Saddam.

Edit: You still haven't told me how I was being racist.
