You don't need Iran to prove that. Women's rights have already been rolled back in the US, it's a mistake to assume it will stop here.

Also the Seven Mountain Dominion founding members saw Iran as a goal, but the islam replaced with christianity.

What is this post even about, Iran still has female parliamentarians and female commissioners and even female ministers sometimes.

They are a counterintuitive leftist-islamist hybrid, they are also Shia and most of your stereotypes about Islam are from Sunnis.

The rights that have been rolled back are about clothing, which doesn't radically differ from West-approved Saudi Arabia or new Syria.

Saying that Iran is more democratic than the USA might be an overstatement, but I'm not sure it's much less.
