The only way leftist will win any political ground is by winning allies
Screaming down every person who you have a disagreement with politically will only solidify their dislike for the people you claim to represent
It's funny to me seeing you claim that the other people lack awareness and empathy when you seemingly fail to grasp that people don't enjoy the way you are portraying your political views
Anglos literally do not deserve alliance; I'd sooner ally with an Iranian, a North Korean, or a Palestinian than the likes of you and yours. I do not think 'hearts and minds' dealing with you skullduggerous swine; I think 'existential enemy'.
EDIT: lmao ๐ฆ
I think I have a lot better grasp of the amount of shit I should give for Anglos, considering USA and UK tried to nuke India back in the 70s and Russia saved us. Also, I have Syrian and Palestinian friends, thanks to whom I actually know how devilish Europe has been. Studying Chinese history of Opium Wars I and II was just cherry on top of the cake. Did I forget to mention Asian countries continue to have border conflicts with each other, because genocidal British colonisers decided to draw lines on map in certain ways?
You know what we call it when you take an ethnic group and act like all its members are the same?
What you
have done since time immemorial, and only seem to have an issue with now that it's being done to you?
What's stopping them from redrawing their borders at the negotiating table?
