"The left", i.e socialists, communists, anarchists, etc, are supportive of a theocratic dictatorship? Not sure whats more unlikely here, a unified "left" or that they'd be unified behind a dictatorship with fascist principles.
IE as the right is becoming more anti-Israel, you find a lot more pro Islamic Republic stuff there these days. The boomer and zoomer right are very different beasts.
I don't follow the left as closely these days, but imagine there are a myriad of opinions on the matter.
Roger Waters is a boomer but reflects the zoomer left well. (To be clear I will be forever grateful to him for his music but he should really stop talking when it comes to the Iranian and Ukrainian people)

what's wrong with it?
Is “the left” in the room with us right now?
The college students and the left support the Iranian regime.

That’s quite the claim. Do you have any examples?

No, no we don't. Nor do we want to get involved in a civil war in Middle East on behalf of Trumps, Saudis, and Israelis.
