Oh excuse me for listening to what actual Syrians have been saying. You obviously know better.
This is always a funny thing to say because you seem to think a handful of views repeated by media interviews represent the views of an entire country.
Yes, that’s called a revolutionary wave. Or are those allowed for white people of previous centuries?
That’s hilarious that you’d make this statement implying that I think only white people can have a “revolutionary wave” which, by the way, plays out much differently in reality than compared with a time-compressed account written after the fact.
The rest of your comment is apologia for (brutal) state repression. Not interested.
Cool, revel in your ignorance and then be shocked and amazed when the inevitable happens. Pointing out that Assad, Saddam, and Gaddafi were better than what came after is not apologia, it’s just the reality, just like how pointing out genocide-supporting Biden is better than Trump is not genocide apologia.
Media interviews? You know that for a decade now there are about 6 million refugees living outside Syria, right? It’s not exactly difficult to meet them and hear what they have to say.
Yeah, gee, I wonder why people who fled a war would say it’s bad where the war is. Keep in mind that the majority of voters in the US voted for Trump because they thought Biden was the reason for the price of eggs.
Tell me you don’t interact with political exiles without telling me you don’t interact with political exiles. And I’m not just talking about Syrians here.
Plenty of them have expressed concern over who has taken over, so you’re not even correct on this point you’re trying to focus on. You’re painting a much more optimistic picture than what the reality warrants. Recent history backs me up, but we’ll see what happens within the next year or so. Until then, we’re just squabbling over what some random Syrians have said.

All right, this one just came out and is actually very good. Educate yourself: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y3s3l8Z3a-U&ab_channel=OwenJones
