Persepolis is banned in Iran bc, you know, theocratic authoritarian state.
But there are many Farsi translations made by fans and the entire film is on YouTube subtitled in Farsi.
I know underground versions were spread illegally in Iran by fans.
leftists who comfortably live in the west and have every privilege imaginable when women of color who live under oppressive regimes advocate for basic human rights and better living conditions in their countries (it's ruining the PR they do for their evil ass friends)
notice how leftists hate both malala yousafzai and marjane satrapi. it's almost like they hate brown women who stand up for women's rights because their loyalty lies with reactionary men as long as they're seen as anti-west
