So which propaganda-infected media am I supposed to believe? Iran about to nuke us or not?

If I may -

I was watching a TikTok today by someone who speaks Farsi - the language spoken on all those "Death to America" videos we get shown with someone speaking loudly over it in English "translating" it. I put translating in quotes for a reason. They weren't.

This person went on to say it was very difficult to hear the Farsi speaker, and it seemed like it was on purpose. They could only pick out bits and pieces over the volume of the English person, but it was to the effect of "they're lying to you, I don't know why they are, we do not want war, etc"

So...I guess this is all to say that I'm not exactly believing what our media is saying their media is saying. About anything, ever.

Makes a ton of sense honestly. I trust them more than I trust us.

That was the conclusion I reached as well. Which is...I don't even know. I've been trying to mentally cope with that all day.
