I lived in iran for 5 years as a christan ask me any question you want?

What’s the car situation like and has it changed over the years? I remember reading that Cuba‘s way of adapting to US automotive embargoes was to keep the old cars that they had running as long as possible using jury rigged parts that they could get. Are there domestic car brands that nobody outside of Iran really knows about, do they still manage to get European/Japanese/American car brands or is it mainly Chinese imports?

Its mostly french and chinese cars cars inside of iran. Although the french cars are really old from the 80s and 90s. The newer luxury cars are all usually chinese unless the person is super rich then he can import bmws and ferraris.
 
Why do Iranians and Chinese people hate each other so much?

I used to work with this guy from Iran. He was one of the nicest dudes I've ever met. Super chill and friendly. Worked hard to support his wife, his own kids and his brother's disabled kid. One of the most down to earth dudes who got along with everyone, except this fat Chinese dude who was the other guy who worked the same position as the Iranian dude. They hated eachother. The Iranian dude referred to him as 'that fucking guy' and at one point the Iranian dude was telling me that swear words are offensive as fuck in Iran because they don't exist in their language and so swearing at someone is more offensive than walking up to someone and punching them in the face. So, referring to him as 'that fucking guy' seems like he's trying to be as disrespectful as possible. It's literally the only time I ever heard him swear.

The Chinese dude was just as bad. I'd see him just randomly flipping the Iranian dude off or just doing shit to intentionally piss him off. They refused to talk to eachother most of the time and wouldn't even help eachother at work. The job involved lifting things that were incapable of being lifted alone. Whenever one of them needed help instead of helping eachother they'd ask me or someone else to help.

One day I asked my manager why they were like that and he said it was because they were both racist against each other because Chinese people and Iranians hate eachother. The Iranian dude seemed to tolerate the other Chinese people at that job but he didn't really seem to like any of them much.

Is it true that Iranians and Chinese hate each other and if so why?

The reason is china exploits iran a lot and has made it its bitch. Iran is isolated due to sanctions so its desperate for anyone to trade with it. China saw weakness in iran and started to fuck up the iranian economy by taking manufacturing away, on top of this the chinese started to build infrastructure in iran that they own (still colonization but not to the same extent as in africa). This has resulted in the chinese having a ridiculously huge amount of power over iran. This isnt helped by the fact that the iranian government is super corrupt and willing to sell its citizens out for quick cash. A large portion of iranians I talk to are also unfortunatly racist towards chinese even though the government is to blame not the people. However for iranians who live outside of iran like myself and my family we appreciate the cultural similarities with the chinese and get along well.

Do Iranians believe that American military intervention will make their country better?
Some do some dont. I talked with one of my cousins and she believed that america would be a saviour from the islamic republic. The islamic republic is very hated in iran among the younger generations who are very western in mindset. However a us invasion would cause a lot of damage and caulsuites to both sides. I myself and a fair amount of power would be in favour of a us backed army coup to overthrow the mullahs and irgc.

So pretty much the same reasons everyone else hates the Chinese.

I honestly hope, for their sake, that they don't.

History has taught us enough what ZOG'ing a nation does to a people in the long-run, from every failed coup to every destabilised region - the only ones who ever seem to benefit are the ones who sell the weapons and ordnance to the beligerents on either side.

Like, is access to coca cola really all that worth it? "You give cobalt, we give slop and liberal lectures in exchange."

On a Scale of 1 to "white woman alone in Haiti" how dangerous is tourism in Iran? Or is it not dangerous at all? Assuming a single male christian willing to grow out his beard in this case. Not american either. I am a sucker for less known tourist destinations and Iran was smack dab in the middle of the Silk Road. Khiva and Samaarkand aren't Iranian but if I visit them someday a trip south into Qom, Isfahan and the ruins of Persepolis would be fire.

if you think america is zoged, iran is aoged (arab occupied govermment) a ton of taxpayer money is being sent to prop up arab dictators like assad and shia militant groups. Also there already is coca cola in iran along with other popular brands.

Actually non iranians do visit iran last year iran had 6 million tourists. Iranians in general are mostly gonna be intrested in meeting you since you are american and americans usually dont come. There might be some people who might try to scam you because they think you are rich but thats in every foreign country. Your main concern is going to be dealing with the government, they made it hard for americans to travel to iran. As long as you have no military ties/fbi ties you should be fine. Also go out of your way to follow the laws, iranian prison is no joke. Overall I would say 3 but I would recomend getting a tour guide first if you want to travel.
 
As I said though not american, which is likely to help given what you said right? Following the law shouldn't be hard I don't even drink.

oh nevermind then, if you are brazilian then both countries are united under brics. You can travel to iran for 15 days without a visa. My same points apply and if anything you would be safer than an american because the government of iran and brazil have better relations. Just get a tour guide so you have someone who speaks the language.
 
Do the trannies there pass better?
I saw 1 tranny in iran and it was obviously a gay man I could tell by his manerisms. There isnt much access due to porn due to interenet blockers so agp are much more rare. In iran most trannies are castrated gay men who want to avoid being killed. These gay men arent really intrested in being women they mostly want to live as gay men without being killed. Transgenderism in iran was tolerated as a release valve to get rid of gay men without having to holocaust them.
