Like, I know at best they're ambivalent about things like racial and gender equality. But do you think they ever wonder why their movement is almost exclusively white and male? Ever cause them just a bit of self-doubt? I mean, one reason I know socialism/leftism is right and good is the fact that what we stand for attracts people of all backgrounds (at least IRL, not sure about online).
Online I know an Indian woman who's a Libertarian. We didn't discuss politics, and I was very close to doing a podcast with her and others in our group, which would've led to me educating them about leftism and all the bullshit they've been told. I think for her, she just doesn't want the government controlling people, is pro-guns, was online a lot when she was younger (she browses 4chan) and still kinda stuck in that anti-SJW, anti-cancel culture mindset, believing that leftists are liberals that just don't get it. I've seen her say "alt-left" and like that stupid "When leftists hate private property but realize they have private parts" meme, so being online and trying to fit in with ppl she might see as different is certainly contributing to the brainworms, despite her being in a community consisting of mostly white males.
She's very sweet and supports the LGBT+ community, she's just misinformed about certain things. I'm not active in the group anymore, but I'd like to get her perspective on how she justifies wanting to be with right wingers, a group that's more likely to not be as accepting of her when they get the society they want. Who does she run to if fascism takes over?
