1. Marjane wants to distance herself (and have others distance themselves) from her "imaginary friend," God. She watches religious fundamentalism destroy the socialist revolution and therefore what she perceives to be justice and love.

2. Marjane would like to see a closing of the gap between words and actions. Her parents do believe in equality for workers, but their actions do not seem to match this belief to the degree that she desires.

3. Perhaps most obviously, Marjane wants to see equality for working people.
