I will maybe be banned for this, but the number of dumb people in this thread is just unbelievable.
The fact that people dont realize that "massacre of people in Iran" is just american propaganda to justify the illegal assault on Iran.
Americans always do the same thing.
They hire mercenaries to wreak havoc in countries so then americans can invade the country and continue to kill children like they doing in past 70 years.
IT worked in the past so why not keep doing the same thing.
You americans go and keep been dumb and let your country continue to manipulate you like they always do.
And ofc dont forget to celebrate your POS soldiers when they come home, but just remember when you do that, that same soldier probably killed multiple kids.

A few things:

1) Calling people names because they have a differing opinion speaks about you more than it does about others.

2) It isn't an "either or" situation.  The US can be wrong, and it can also be true the Iran does in fact massacre their people.  Most things, in fact, are not mutually exclusive. 

3) The world wants to hate the US, so be the first to stop buying US products.  So toss all you video game systems (AMD or Nvidia chipsets) in the garbage.  Toss your phone in the bin (Android or Apple).  Stop using Netflix.  Stop using X/Twitter.  Toss your computers in the garage (AMD or Intel).  Etc, etc.  People want to complain about the US while doing nothing but supporting the US with their purchases.  Money gives power, hate the US so much, stop supporting it.     

Just a quick note about Android: While Google is the original developer and also maintains most of the code, it's actually not owned by Google anymore and it's freeware now. Hence how Android distros without any Google services are a thing. My phone (Fairphone 5) even came with the option for /e/ or CalyxOS as the operating system if I had bought it online, though my provider only had the standard Google Chrome option available.

As for the rest, this is why many countries slowly try to decouple but can't fully do so because critical parts are only coming from one region or another, and many of them in the US. The aforementioned computer and console chips for instance are all designed in the US, mostly produced in Taiwan with machinery only available from the Netherlands. Microprocessing hardware however is very difficult to set up from scratch, and even someone like Elon Musk would be bankrupted by this before the chips would become anything close to competitive.

In short, people and countries decouple slowly, but only where it's reasonably possible for most people, as in physical goods and service providers that are available from other countries, but these options simply don't exist for everything.
