I like the OG Robocop from 1980s, but the shitty one from 2014 was on TV and I noticed that it says on the news ‘‘Tehran’’, I mean, it’s obvious that it’s Teheran and that they are trying to reference potential future war in Iran right?

    Yes, USA did prepared for invasion of Iran for like last two decades so it was natural to include it in hollywood movie, especially the one with killer robots - and the operation name is very realistic for US, as they always kill and plunder and call it “freedom”, “democracy” and such.

    “Tehran” is just the original city name, various languages mostly write it as either Tehran or Teheran.

    Libya was the other big target of Hollywood racism during the 80s/90s and I suppose a whole load other people. They are in bed with the Pentagon, so it’s not surprising. Hollywood is full of little leni riefenhstahls.
