Persepolis eurocentrism also reminds me of Fanon. Fanon was concerned with how colonized elites seek legitimacy through categories established by europe. desire isn't necessarily 'i want to become european' but 'I want europe to recognize me as civilized modern rational cultured'

In July of 2024, Marjane Satrapi went on Democracy Now to react to the progressive coalition defeating the fascist National Rally party in French parliamentary elections. Satrapi condemned Melenchon as a “radical leftist anti-Semite” whose “relationship with Hamas is quiet” and who “loves” South American “dictators” like “Chávez”.

Marjane Satrapi made a career out of proliferating orientalist western caricatures of her own people. While Satrapi cashed in on racist campaigns thinly veiled by anti-patriarchal rhetoric calling for 'regime change' in Iran, she never once used her platform to speak out against the ongoing existential threats presented by Western powers against Palestinian, Lebanese, Iranian and ALL other Muslim women in West Asia. It's a fitting end for someone who remained blithely silent through three years of genocide in the region that raised her to literally die of grief over the loss of one gangly Swedish white guy.

found a treasure trove of rare DPRK ebooks in an old Windows program. hundreds of North Korean and famous foreign literary works (translations they published), literary theory textbooks, and a "common sense encyclopedia". Going to extract them and make a website for viewing them
