    For one, they like to call themselves persian even though thats kitsch at best and supremacist at worst.

    There are so many ethnic/ racial groups within Iran; azeris, Kurds, Arabs, Persians, balochis, etc. Persian is 50% roughly depending on your source. Not only that but calling Iran persia, is a colonial term.

    That’s why they changed the name themselves to Iran, because they’re the land of the Ayranian people.

    Someone should tell them to do a test at least.
