Again, I know where you’re coming from, and my own leftism is deeply inflected by post-68 thinking. But hundreds of thousands perhaps many more leftists of all stripes and from all places went to their deaths across the last century in war and conflict with the right with social views we wouldn’t hold, or would probably abhor, and who considered themselves as having a consistently left-wing viewpoint. So given the history of this, the nature of class struggle and so on perhaps one can cut them some slack.
