Thoughts from a lifelong Iranian-American Democrat from a Kurdish Muslim family about #Iran, Biden's policy, imperialism, workers, etc. A case for supporting #IranRevolution and opposing Biden's policy from liberal/progressive lens- a thread below #MAHSAAct #HR589 #MahsaAmini
1) Biden's policy hasn't worked. 80% enrichment. The Revolutionary Guards (IRGC) are oligarchs controlling about 70% of Iran's economy. They can't compete in a free market. The average person can't create an economy independent of IR gov, sanctions relief won't help them much.
2) Today a report came out that oligarch-controlled Russia, via Caspian Sea & Indian Ocean, needs Iran to be able to fund Russian oligarchs & war machine. Sanctions have prevented necessary rail links from being built in #Iran . So yes, sanctions have hurt IRGC, not just people
