> Democracy wont survive in iran until the govt want their oil to be depleted by western war hungry demons

Yet somehow Brazil, Mexico, India and hosts of other non-European-origin-majority resource-rich democracies exist.

That said, maybe the limiting factor on democracy is agency. If a culture blames outside forces for all of its woes, there is nothing it can–within that worldview–do to self improve. So it won't. If, on the other hand, it separates the factors it can control from those it can't (and nobody can control all of the factors, that's just reality), it has a hope.

CIA meddles in elections of practically all 3 of those countries and none of them are openly anti America. If you are liberal bourgeoise democracy you cant be anti america, thats the standard set by epstienite empire, doesnt seem much freedom of choice is given to them? When was the last time america did a coup in those countries and killed their leader?

No one wants their country to be controlled by child eating pedophiles. Its funny when those funding genocide in gaza lecture other cultures about agency

Yeah if anything the US is the real victim here, we constantly have to go cleaning up things over there at great expense.
