@Mantispie So? It’s definitionally true that nationalism “goes bad” when the nationalist state frees itself from its subjugator. That doesn’t mean it wasn’t correct up to that point.

@LRickyyang @literaturedevil youve never played a silent hill game have you you fucking tourist

[jam @addmeoncomputer]

@agraybee @DerekPederson3 Well, I would argue it was undemocratic but I think Mossadegh was a good leader overall and I think he was right that the parliament had fallen into the hands of foreign influence networks. It’s worth remembering this is a time where Britain and the US were doing Ajax

[jam @addmeoncomputer]

Also yeah he did some liberal reforms- shocker, so did *the shah*

[jam @addmeoncomputer]

“Mossadegh was a nationalist!” Yes and nationalism can have emancipatory properties, for example, when writing policies against an imperialist aggressor (Anglo-Persian) who’s extracting oil from you for pennies on the dime and lying about the accounts.

Autocrat is just a reach.

[Derek Pederson 🇺🇸🇺🇦🇻🇪 @DerekPederson3]

Yeah, I think if anything Persepolis gives people a very left-biased understanding of Iranian history—unsurprising given her family background.

In particular the idea that Mosaddegh was a liberal and not a nationalist autocrat I think in part just comes from Persepolis.

[jam @addmeoncomputer]

@CarlosCMTF @constans You really can’t understand the IGRC and 1979 or tge shah without talking about Mossadegh and the Anglo-Persian oil company

[jam @addmeoncomputer]

@CarlosCMTF @constans 1979 wasn’t the first time religious factions and leftists collaborated, and if you know about that then you might find it a bit more understandable. During the time of Mossadegh, before the 1953 coup, he often had some support from both leftists and more humanist clerics
