    Iran used to be a beautiful place when the people in charge there were focused on modernization instead of religion. As soon as conservative Muslims took over, the focus was put back on Islam, and the place is an authoritarian third world hellhole now.

    Which is a shame, the refugees I’ve met from there have always been friendly and there’s a lot of fascinating history and tradition and natural beauty in that part of the world that I’ll probably never get to experience because of extremist hatred. If they come to their senses I would love to visit Iran one day.
