>From its opening, 300 also attracted controversy over its portrayal of Persians. Officials of the Iranian government[111] denounced the film.[112][113][114] Some scenes in the film portray demon-like and other fictional creatures as part of the Persian army, and the fictionalized portrayal of Persian King Xerxes I has been criticized as effeminate.[115][116] Critics suggested that this was meant to stand in stark contrast to the sheer masculinity of the Spartan army.[117] Steven Rea argued that the film's Persians were a vehicle for an anachronistic cross-section of Western stereotypes of Asian and African cultures.[118]
>Iran's cultural advisor to president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has called the film an "American attempt for psychological warfare against Iran".[136]
lmao Persians are just like nignogs

I remember watching that movie in a discount theatre and when the Spartans were killing all the Persian warriors they were wooing and yelling "get some" while waving their fists.
That being said, I like Ali Shariati.

Western apologists believe that their civilisation started in ancient Athens and that, since Spartans gave Athenians enough time to btfo Persia at Plataea and Salamis, Athens survived as a culture. These retards believe that if Persia had won the war, there would be no Western civilisation today, with the emphasis on individualism and rationalism that they love and that makes the West the "best" culture according to them. Can't wait for China to take over and take all individualists to re-education camps desu

But Athens was destroyed anyway.

>Athens was destroyed anyway
Athenians were able to flee the city before Persia occupied it, went to Salamis and defeated Persia decisively.
> Sparta used Persian money to btfo Athens
That happened much later, at the end of Perikles' golden age and after half of Greece had been forced into the Delian league. That was the starting point of "Western civilisation" and there was no way back. Spartan victory at the Peloponnesian war led to the 30 tyrants ruling Athens as Spartan puppets, but they didn't last because Athenians missed their democracy, so they killed the tyrants, killed collaborators like Sokrates, and reinstalled Athenian democracy. Plato and his academy friends made the "Western" ways more stable and detailed, and Alexander's (later Rome's) conquests made the birth of the "Western world" irreversible, which is funny because neither Macedon nor Rome were Athenian democracies.

Spartan society required a majority of it's population to be slaves and it's system didn't allow many advances in culture or nation. They couldn't expand because if they did the slaves at home would revolt
The slave population of Persia was actually one of the lowest in the ancient world. The Persians had a new system of administration where locals would get to keep their culture, freedom and have a degree of self rule, only the ones at the very top (Satraps) of local adminstration had to be Persian. This led to a very stable empire that could expand across the entire ancient world. How are Persians the bad guys?
