  • Let’s look at your 3 criteria one by one:

    or internal support

    The regime is definitely illegitimate in eyes of the people.

    the context of international relations,

    The US has had not diplomatic relations with Iran since 1979 and does not recognize that regime as legitimate.

    and control.

    Yes they do control people. With torture and murder. But torture and murder is not really viewed as a legitimate way for countries to control their population.



  • He failed to legitimize the government that has been ruling the country since 1979…?

    The monarchy system of the Shah lasted 2500 years. Not sure what the point it.

    You don’t have to support theocracy to recognize the absurdity of claiming that a government that’s been in charge for 50 years, and is recognized around the world, is somehow illegitimate.

    It is illegitimate as a democracy and government that represents its own people. People are protesting the fakeness of the election by not voting.

















  • Perhaps the dems should ask themselves why mandatory purchasing of insurance was the pinnacle of their accomplishment in the last 40 years and attempt to examine that.

    It was not. Getting health insurance for an additional 30 million Americans was.

    But sure fully embracing racial taxonomy and spending as much time as possible classifying people based on skin-tone, facial features, phenotypes, skull shape and literally anything besides class might work too.

    Nope. That is just some idiot media pundit nonsense. Not so be taken seriously.
