    Yeah, western tankies especially can be very weird. Meanwhile, the actual communist party of Iran has nothing good to say about him.

    Quote:

    The only regret of the people of Iran and the families of the survivors of the horrific crimes committed by the mercenaries of reaction and tyranny, over the death of Ebrahim Raisi, is that the opportunity for his historic trial in the not-too-distant future has been lost.

      Right, and they call anyone who disagrees with them, even actual communists, “McCarthyists” 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

      Seriously though, anyone who sees any reason whatsoever for communists to support the Iranian government mustn’t have a single fucking clue what communism is about… They’re a fucking joke (if only they didn’t go around giving leftists such a bad name)…

      That’s a fantastic, and not at all surprising piece of information though, thanks for sharing!

      It should be noted that the Tudeh party has it’s HQ in Europe, hence them being all Bertie Big Bollocks about this news. They are banned in Iran.

      The communists also helped overthrow the CIA puppet regime in the first place, which seems to have helped them not one jot.
