Iām so sick of variations of this take. No one is holding up the Islamic Republic as enlightened governance, but guess what? They have caused NOWHERE NEAR the harm, death and destruction the US has. And what we do to women (since thatās the tedious talking point) is horrific too!

Of course, Biden did not pardon a one of us, even tho he super easily could have pardoned at least a few hundred of us! Nor did he encourage even one of a bunch of Dem governors now all seemingly vying for a 2028 presidential nomination to do the same for a whole bunch more of us!

I am not convinced that MAGA cruelty is based on perceived self-interest. Afropessimists argue, convincingly IMHO, that antiblack cruelty and violence is based fundamentally in a psychic need to dehumanize others to stabilize their own existential angst. It's why it's called *gratuitous* violence.
