This is hilarious because Iran is already sanctioned to hell and back. G7 really has one tool and that's it. So glad my country joined BRICS and made peace with Iran.

Reminds me of "you are only making it worse for yourself"

US: Let's send weapons to our allies that are at war! Iran: We'll do the same! US: shocked Pikachu face

With the litte difference that russia is a brutal dictatorship who invaded a sovereign country and Iran is a brutal dictatorship too.

But I guess it's the same anyway, right?

The US is constantly and historically the ones propping up dictators all over the world. AND we have done it while people of those nations have either legitimately voted for the opposite, and/or were fighting for their freedom from colonial powers/dictators. We actively fund and create false narratives inside nations that we don't like to start color revolutions. We force other nations into backing brutal sanctions if they don't want us to go after them and to be allowed to trade with us. Our military is literally installed all over the globe, but we claim nations like China are somehow being "aggressive" for even patrolling their own areas. We create and groom evil and gaslight the world that we are somehow just allowed to police the globe. Fuck yourself.
