creepy public comments sounding like serial killers? republican party, check. https://www.dailykos.com/stories/2023/2/7/2151410/-Yes-Republicans-are-discussing-genocide-against-LGBTQ-people <= (this is Vishal Singh again! Hi Vishal!)
taking of american hostages? well, the country with proportionally the most people imprisoned is america: https://worldpopulationreview.com/country-rankings/incarceration-rates-by-country and besides, in america, it is legal to force prisoners to work for nothing and to deny them the right to vote.
jailing and torturing women for NOT wearing hijabs? to my knowledge this doesnt happen, but considering the fact that "muslim ban" and "muslim registry" have been serious suggestions by the republicans, i would argue the opposite is more possible.
orwellian morality police? er... they do keep banning a shit ton of books. the smearing of trans and queer people as "groomers" has been going on for years. they overturned roe v. wade and are now attempting to ban abortion everywhere possible.
sponsoring terrorist organizations? are you fucking kidding, have you read ANY recent american history? ruhollah khomeini, saddam hussein, manuel noriega, usama bin-laden, abu bakr al-baghdadi, all of these motherfuckers have been lent a hand by the u.s. at some point.
so yes! you ARE in fact being disproportionally biased. all of these things are true of iran, yes, but they are at least as true if not more true of the u.s.a. and especially its extreme right-wing republican party.
