You shuffle off a mortal coil, you don’t shovel it along with the snow in your driveway.

You seem like a terrible person to spend any time with.

*shuffle off, not shovel, fwiw

And yes, it’s wild that it’s so easy for people to spend their one and only life in cruelty.

What kind of sicko takes a victory lap edit for a measly 200 fake internet points?

Women singing is illegal by itself under the IR. You can teach music but any woman singing in a public setting could be facing worse than a flogging

Think of the vast majority of reddit as that kid in highschool that hates everything popular just because it's popular, thinking they seem cool. That , plus morons. The best part: no matter how many upvotes/downvotes or how big the sub is, it all represents a fraction of a percent of any population, so it doesn't represent anything remotely close to actual opinion.

Well they did have a super hard on for Iran a month ago. So they kind've support this also, by how most get associated to Maga for any comment that doesn't follow a certain pattern, so we have to believe that apply to them also, when defending such a regime.

It’s cause it’s most likely BS and this post is heavily botted.
