Man, not only you're on the ball on this, they know it too! That's the part that gets on my nerves. I can handle brainwashed cretins, but half of the mullah brigade here say the exact same things behind closed doors. But in Iran we grow up with the "gheyrat" culture which teaches us not to show weakness in front of foreigners or even outsiders (outsiders meaning people outside the family or circle of friends).Guys i consider you as rational thinking Iranians and would appreciate your input about this, is it all western propaganda? @Abii @New @Militant Atheist
They're just trying to save face. In fact, anybody can go to skyscrapercity and talk to Cyrus. He's a senior moderator on the whole site, but he's Iranian and you can find him in the Iranian section a lot. His father passed away due to a lack of medicine in Iran. He opened a thread when it was happening and he even gave the name of the medicine he needed. It was very specialized and you couldn't find it in Iran b/c of the sanctions. I'm telling you this b/c you used medicine as an example and you were 100% on the ball.
I was like those idiots too. If you go back and read my posts from back when I first joined, I wasn't much different. I matured a lot in the past 2-3 years (coincides with when I moved out of my parent's house to another province in Canada and started living on my own). Basically the bull shit you read from the mullah brigade here is the result of a lack of maturity and Iran's "gheyrat culture" which is strongly against showing weakness in front of outsiders. I only lived in Iran for 12 years so that part of the culture never seeped into me like it has for them and I managed to lose it a lot easier than these lot can. Most of them probably never will.
