    For all the rhetoric that Americans heap on the Iranian government’s theocratic authoritarian abuse of their citizens, there are a lot of folks that seem to look at it and go: You know, this would be pretty sweet with a Jeebus re-branding.

      We already have a group of six Mullahs whose pronouncements cannot be challenged and who are in their position for life.

      Yup. They hate to be reminded of it, too. They are basically the same thing, they are both adherents to Abrahamic religion, as well as being regressive, hypocritical cons.

      It gets even worse for them when you point out they worship the same god. Oh, they really hate that. Just ask them to name their god when they go on about “God” in a provincial way. It’s Yahweh, aka Allah. Same thing.
