I’m reminded of Charlie Hebdo shooting in 2015. This year I heard a program on This American Life about comedians in Syria post-Bashar al-Assad under the rebels government of Hay'at Tahrir al-Sham (HTS).
Comedy is not a subject I mentally associate with Muslims in the Middle East.
Comedy must surely be the ultimate form of free speech (whereas “Citizens United” might be the most radical form).

Iran messaging: we got attacked by mad apes but we are cool and funny and we carry on unbothered
USA messaging: UNGA BUNGA BIG EXPLOSIONS
Well I guess the propaganda worked for you.
Ironically, most Iranians can't see the propaganda since they don't have internet access.
I don't think it's aimed at them anyway.
