Hmm... And what's wrong with the changes that lead to progress?
...
The bourgeois revolution carried out by the happy few in Iran did not give the Iranian people anything. On the contrary, the wealth belonging to the Iranian people was given to others by the collaborationist bourgeois revolutionaries. Please try typing TP-AJAX into Google.

The ideal in the USSR was Lenin and the Communist Party - as a result, tens of millions of their citizens were killed, the destinies of hundreds of millions were crippled, the degradation of countries affected by this bastard ideology and ideals.

I read Animal Farm by George Orwell when I was 8 years old. I am not a socialist (I believe in a free market economy) but if I am forced to choose between fascists and socialists, I will choose socialists. The problem is not capitalism, we do not have a second option other than capitalism, the problem is that the resources belonging to the people are collected in "a snobbish group that thinks they are elite".

Although ... I do not deny that you like it so much, for example Afghanistan - took and chose the path: "forward to the Stone Age!" and they are so good

You're accusing me of something I didn't say. I think our talk should end here because I don't want to act like you. Thank you. Also, I have to add that the probability of improvement of the Taliban is higher than that of the colonialists. The lesser evil...
Back on the topic, the number of people living on $2 a day or less during the pandemic has increased by 75 million.
Meanwhile, the number of people who are poor in India (with incomes of $2 or less a day) is estimated to have increased by 75 million because of the COVID-19 recession. This, too, accounts for nearly 60% of the global increase in poverty.
https://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2021/03/18/in-the-pandemic-indias-middle-class-shrinks-and-poverty-spreads-while-china-sees-smaller-changes/Modi raises the morale of the people of India by creating promising projections for the years when many Indian citizens will not be alive. I think he is doing the right thing because the peoples of the east have the appropriate social ground for these policies. Greetings to the people of India.
1. Regarding the revolution, nothing gave Iran - it's just your statement, not supported by anything. Let's connect argems, backed up by facts and verifiable figures?
I believe that the indicators of improvements were, and it's easy to check:
- economic development
- attraction of investments
- opening markets
- getting the opportunity to receive a quality education in Western educational institutions
- The status of a country with an actively developing economy
- increase in the standard of living of the population
- freedom
- the absence of strict legislation restricting the rights and freedoms of a person, based on radical Islamism
It seems to me that this is much more attractive than what happened in Iran later ...
2. "I read George Orwell's Animal Farm when I was 8 years old. I'm not a socialist (I believe in a free market economy), but if they make me choose between fascists and socialists, I will choose socialists."
There was no socialism in the USSR, there was red terror, which subsided a little over time, but the repressive system remained at the heart of the state. This was not socialism. It's kind of like war communism. And having made the wrong choice, you are trying to give an example where the choice will be absolutely logical. It's like saying "if I'm offered shit or cheesecake, I'll heroically choose cheesecake." The question can be formulated as follows 6 that you choose fascism or rashism?
I will answer - a normal person with such a choice (fascism or rashism) will not choose either one or the other. Choosing from two evils, you will choose EVIL anyway!
3. "You accuse me of something I didn't say. I think our conversation should end here because I don't want to act like you. Thank you. I should also add that the Taliban are more likely to improve than the colonialists. Lesser evil...
"- no need to twist
I'm not saying that you said it, I made the example of your choice more contrasting. You consider the change of the totalitarian regime an evil! "The bourgeois revolution carried out by a few lucky ones in Iran did not give anything to the Iranian people. On the contrary, the wealth belonging to the Iranian people was transferred to other collaborationist bourgeois revolutionaries" - are these your words or am I saying something for you?
Well, about the lesser evil - see p.p. 2, there is already an answer to this question
