100%. The Iranian regime is not stupid. The "existential threat" bs being peddled by a certain government is simply to give cover to illegal attacks on a sovereign nation. This is "WMDs in Iraq" all over again.

Heh I guess you've never been subject to taunts such as "go back to your country illegal" or "you don't belong here!". Must be nice!

I'm just pointing out that the most plausible reason your fellow countrymen choose to call themselves "expats" wherever they go, is because the rhetoric in your country has dehumanized or made the word immigrants/illegal "dirty".

Not hard to imagine such rhetoric can lead to nastiness all around, ending even in violence against said group. If you don't mind that and see no problem with that, then of course there's absolutely no common ground for us to have any discussion on :)

Sunshine is the best disinfectant, and people knowing what actually happened matters a lot more in the long term than any indifference and apathy in the short term.

There are plenty of channels that do none of these. As for "algorythm manipulations", YT recommends more of what you like or subscribed to. Not sure what you expect a content aggregator and provider to do. Just have a search bar? I've come across so many interesting channels thanks to the "algorythm manipulations".

Citation needed. Are you saying that if there were a billion YT premium subscribers, YT would still need ads for its scale? I doubt it.
