I pointed out your very poor use of “the Iranians” because for the other example, you chose “Russia”, which is the name of the country and - while not optimal - more easily associated with the government. Whereas “the Iranians” is much more easily associated with “the Iranian people”.
Please consider not using “the Russians” or “the Iranians” at all in such a context.
You are absolutely correct. Just because Trump is an asshole doesn’t make Russia or the Iranians good people and we should not celebrate them.
“the Iranians”? Care to rephrase & clarify that was a really dumb mistake from a rushed reponse?
“the Iranians” in the sense of “the iranian government / regime” and not “the iranian people”. That also applies to “the russians”
