The same thing with Iranian exiles too. As we all know, they always try to paint Iran as a bastion of liberalism where “free thought” roamed and arts was flourishing and that women had rights, blah blah blach, prior to 1979. But as we all know, that is a load of bullshit. Only ones who had the great life were those who benefited from the shah’s excesses.

Of course, that doesn’t mean we automatically love Khomeini as a result. But many people can’t grasp that.
