Truth be told ,the far left prioritizing anti Western propaganda over actual freedom and human rights usually ends up enabling a different kind of tyranny. Same blind spot shows up today when some still defend Iran’s regime (or its proxies) as resistance while ignoring the theocratic nightmare it really is. Democracy's purveyors recognized this many years ago. " In 1979 a revolution swept through Iran. Unlike our own revolution that was motivated by liberty and independence, and the desire to spread these democratic values, the anti-Western ideology that drove Iran's revolt served to aggravate cultural and religious divides in the Middle East and world-wide. Instead of democratic governance, this struggle resulted in the installation of a retrograde authoritarian theocracy". https://www.congress.gov/event/115th-congress/house-event/108155/text#:~:text=The%20Iranian%20revolution%2C%20which%20started,tensions%20through%20campaigns%20of%20terror.
