We're not sure if he did tbh, but his ex wife with mobility issues mysteriously fell down the stairs she rarely used in her home and died shortly she was to be interviewed for a legal deposition. She was then hastily buried on the grounds of one of his golf courses in a poorly maintained plot

I'm convinced a lot of people are subjected to a constant barrage of right-wing propaganda via social media currently and are completely immersed in their echo chambers in the US right now. It's strange when running into it in the real world because they'll act as if some discriminatory behavior, as a broad example, is socially acceptable and commonly encouraged but when nobody reciprocates they become confused like they didn't get the reality they expected. I'd really go as far to say they're deluded. I hope that makes well-enough sense.
The main culprits brainwashing Americans I believe are Facebook and X.

Social media creating bubbles of uninformed echo chamber users is a major problem for both the right and the left.

The educated landscape is very different as well. I went to a good high school and afterwards on to college and met a lot of incredible, impressive, thoughtful, passionate, more or less caring people. Fast forward to being out-competed for a good job and landing in the public sector in order to put food on my table, now i'm surrounded by uneducated MAGA people who thrive on ignorance and malice. There are different social landscapes within the country and ones who have lost the ability to think for themselves are very easily manipulated, but very proud and vocal to believe and repeat whatever narrative helps them feel better about themselves, usually by finding victims to their insecurities

Clearly wants it open.
They avoid airstrikes against Iranian oil infrastructure, eased sanctions on Iran & Russia to calm prices, and appear to be attempting gunboat diplomacy to reopen the strait.
Rising gas prices, economic recession, etc. will all have political consequences at election time before a single boot on the ground.
Reopening the strait won't return the market to the antebellum status quo. GCC infrastructure has been damaged. That might be why a month in they suddenly care less, or it might be a pressure tactic for a coalition.
In any case, today they care and don't care.

Why does anyone outside the right wing propaganda bubble still publish stories that quote Trump as if his words mean anything? It's not just that he's an inveterate liar, or that he obviously uses public statements to fraudulently manipulate markets. It's that he demonstrably doesn't understand what's going on around him a good deal of the time. Report on what is actually happening using sources that have been vetted, not the ravings of a dementia-riddled con-man who should have had his keys taken away years ago. I get that he holds the most powerful office in the world and his actions have far ranging consequences, but his words are untrustworthy at best and delusional word salad at worst, and therefore have no business being construed as having any bearing on reality.

If he is talking about pezeshkian, true, he is much less radical and more moderate. It was why people voted for him in the first place. It's not out of character for him to try to de-escalate.
But, the thing is he has no power, and IRGC only answers to the supreme leader, and not him. So, even if he asks for a ceasefire, it doesn't mean anything.

There was a ceasefire before this war, right? The same guy was president right? The old ayatollah had a religious decree forbidding nuclear weapons development right? What has changed? The old guy who was at death bed, had a decree is gone, bombed during negotiations. What do Iran gets out of it that ensure that they aren't bombed in next six months?
2
Fit-Ad-835Apr 1, 2026

He was elected by the people so the situation won't end up like this. His promised negotiations and stepping away from hard line policies.
He also wanted to dampen the nuclear enrichment, which Ayatollah didn't like.
Ayatollah famously said we never negotiate about it, and there won't be any war.
Well, that stubborn fool was wrong and war did happen. You must understand that he is the one who draws the red line. If he doesn't allow it, there will be a agreement between iran and the west.
These negotiations have been going for 20 years, even people understand that Mullahs don't want to give the enrichment away, yet people think reason negotiations failed was because no one wanted to make a deal in the west.
Also, do you seriously believe the religious decree is something that you can rely on? You clearly don't know what a piece of shit these mullahs are. No one in the west knows apparently.
Edit: i wanna give some examples.
This poor president promised his voters that he would urban social media. Even before this internet shutdown, accessing YouTube, WhatsApp, Listnook, Twitter even Google play and really all social meda without VPN was impossible.
You would think such a decision is possible for a president. He controls the department of communications right?

Jared, I mean the official spokesperson for Iran🤪, is willing to discuss a cease-fire. This is the beginning of the orange idiot’s move to get out of the war.
