Summary: the Iranian government has intensely used lethal force on protesters. In Tehran alone, several hundred people have been killed. In the whole country - most likely several times more.

I read that as sarcasm, so my sarcasm was in response. And you admit quoting the wrong part of my text, so surely you understand that it wasn’t obvious you oppose imperialism is Venezuela while seemingly pushing for it in Iran…
Anyways, no, I don’t think everyone protesting is a bad actor, and I have no doubt the authorities are using force to suppress them.
I wouldn’t blame them for wanting a revolution either, but I wouldn’t wish a Zionist puppet shah who gives all of their oil to America on them.
I think people have been killed and more will be, I think if they succeed in stopping the protests they will execute people. Some of the clashes have been violent and they’ve killed a bunch of police.
I don’t quite buy this though: “They’re charging at crowds in vans and bikes. I have seen them slowing down and deliberately shooting at people’s faces. Many have been injured. The streets are full of blood. I fear I am about to witness a sea of dead people.”
And just how poetic this plea is with Trump’s promise to deliver: “With great difficulty, thousands of us managed to get online so I could get the news to you. We’re standing up for a revolution, but we need help.”
I think the media is attempting to manufacture consent for American “intervention”.

I apologize, yes I can see you replied that way now.
But I want to thank you for your well thought out replies, I can certainly see the attempts to build manufactured consent to invade Iran.
I hope the bloodshed stops and I hope the us doesn’t get involved.
Thank you again!
I wish to be wrong; I see zero chance of this leading to Iranian liberation, not with the US salivating over it. Nothing good will come of this, look at Syria, 15 years of civil war to remove a brutal dictator only to be replaced by an ISIS islamist US puppet who’s proving everyday will be even worse than Assad.
There is no chance of transitioning to a popular Democratic government, it will be Reza and his US/Israeli allies fighting whatever is left of the current government until one of them eventually takes control of what’s left of Iran. And Iranians will once again be ruled by an authoritarian regime, but their country is severely more damaged.
