Why Can't I pick Persian as a language i speak? I find this offensive.

I have been a host for some years now, and even though i have complained about this topic to Airbnb multiple times. No one from Airbnb ever did anything about this issue. I understand the whole US-Iran Relations problem, and the sanctions and how Airbnb is trying to avoid situations that could cause trouble, but excluding a language that a nation of more than 80 million speak from the list of languages is just discriminative and insulting. This is exactly why i want to open this discussion here because it's been on my mind for awhile now. We cant be encouraging inclusivity, and diversity when we exclude such an important and historical language from our lists.
